Arlo Guthrie Zapped
As Santana Soars

Jennifer Challenged,
But Mason Recovered

r

By DAN COSSCTT
Arts Editor
Every once in a while, the impossible happens and a relatively
unknown act garners a greater audience reaction than the feature
headliner act. That happened Sunday night at Xavier University
Fieldhouse in Cincinatti, when Santana, a latin-rocband, followed
Arlo Cuthrie.
It was scheduled for Santana to preform first and Arlo to follow,
but the airline strikes held Santana up and Arlo agreed to appear
first. It's Just as well for Arlo that he did. Although he drew
thundering applause with his songs and hilarious narrations, Arlo
did not show the inspiration that has hallmarked many of his
public appearances.
The high point of Arlo's portion of the show was a monologue
that preceeded "Oh Mary Don't You Weep." It was all about
d
how the Pharoh turned Moses and "the kiddies" on to
brownies, and how the Red Sea didn't really open up,
but instead, all of the "kiddies" were so stoned they swam all
the way across the Red Sea.
Then,' Santana came on. Music audiences in this part of the country have generally not been turned on to Santana, and the Cincinatti audience was in for a big surpise.
They started off with a thing named "No Bamba," and even
before they stopped playing, people were jumping up and down
with glee. Santana maintained that fever pitch for over two and a
curtain call.
half hours, and still had to come back for a
The main thrust in their music is percussion. Two congoists and
a trap drummer lead their way. In a way, these are the soloists and
the lead guitar, bass and organ accompany the drums. Outstanding
among the three percussionists is Jose Octavio Areas, known as'
"Chepito". The man is an absolute wizard on the congas. Every
time he took a solo break, people would begin to just move their
'
heads in rhythm to the music.
On a couple of numbers, the percussion section would take
breaks together. Mike Carabello and Mike Shrieve, master drummers in the own right, joined Chepito during "Soul Sacrifice,"
which was the last number of the regular set. Even as Chepito is
brilliant alone, the three of them together would zonk even the
most jaded percussion buff. That was the song that brought the
audience into a frenzy, screaming for an encore.
The other three members of the band, Carlos Santana, lead
guitarist and leader of the group, David Brown on bass and Cregg
Rolie on piano and organ, never really got a chance to show what
they could do. That was probably the only thing that detracted
from the performance.
,'
Mention should be made of the format for the concert. It was
held at the Xavier University Fieldhouse which is roughly the size
of Alumni Gymnasium. No chairs or tarps or anything, were placed
on the hardwood surface, and people just sat on the. floor or on
blankets.

Beatles New Album,
Study In Regression

MICHAEL JACKSON
College Press Service
(Regression: the reversal to a
pattern of behavior more appropriate to, or characteristic of, an
earlier stage of development.)
By

"Concept: Music, Philosophy
and Politics" magazine describes
the Beatles' "Get Back" as "a
model of simplicity," and that it
is, for the dominant theme of
this, the Beatles' newest set, is.
one of regression.

The set consists of an album,
a
photo book and
an accompanying film of the recording session, all slated to be
released in a package deal this
December. The album itself contains 11 cuts, all recorded live in
the new Apple studios at 3 Seville Blvd., London. The cover
photo shows the Beatles posed,
on the steps of EMI studios,1
exactly as they appeared on the
cover of their first album, "Please
Please Me," in 1963.
In this album there Is no background orchestration, no electronic effects, no Eastern influence and even no overdubbing.
Only the Beatles and keyboard
man Billy Preston are involved.
All of the cuts were composed
and arranged before the Beatles
went to the studio, so the result
is very loose; looser, in fact,
than "The Beatles." Listening
to this album Is like being in the
control room of Apple's studios
during a rehearsal. Nothing has
been edited out or dubbed in,
and many times the Beatles stop
,in the middle of one song and
go on to the next.

missed several notes.
The crowd didn't seem to
mind these few mistakes, however. After the last number in
her set, "I Got Life, Mother,"
she . got ; a standing ovation
and two: curtain calls, which is
rare for a second-bille- d
performer.
She came very close to pulling
off the same sort of coup as San'.

tana would do Saturday night,

by outshining Mason Williams.
Williams himself prevented
that coup by presenting a show
that reflected the same wit and
careful planning that is so evident
in his book, "Mason Williams'
Reading Matter." If nothing else,
he proved that he is capable of
more than his overarranged sim-

plistic renditions of "Classical
Gas" and "Greensleeves."
One interesting part of the
show was two rhythmic pseudo-talkin-g
blues, titled "Toad Suck-in- "
and "Tummy Blubbin." The
latter is a comment about the
poor clowns who feel constrained
to lift the gowns of babies and
blub their lips against the infantile tummies.
,
The best number in the entire show, however, was a col-- .
laboration between Jennifer and
Mason during his final curtain
call. The song, composed by Williams, was "A Gift of Song."
Although the lyrics are. just a
little maudlin and inane, - it
creates the same sort of feeling
of love and brotherhood and all
that, as does "Break of Day"
by Peter, Paul, and Mary, and
"Heyjude" by the Beatles.
Some mention should be made
of Bill Cunningham, one of Williams sidemen. When Williams
was introducing the band, he
got to Cunningham and said,
"This guy plays everything."
That about sums it- up, as
Cunningham stood out on fiddle,
dobro and harmonica.

To Lennon's cry of, "Do your
own thing, men," "Don't Let
Me Down" begins. The tone
of this version is definitely apart
from that of the 45; one can sense
the spontaneous cohesion, almost
a desperate plea for release, that
engulfs. The Leslie amplification
process on the lead guitar gives
that instrument the versatility of
an organ, and the resultant crying sound is used extensively to
offset Lennon's plea.
In "You Can Even Take a
Pony," Lennon implies that each
member of the Beatles is disjoining himself from the others, and
the group itself from its followers (from now on "you can celebrate anything you wantyou can
penetrate any place you go.").

the potential if not the opportunity or perserverence to be an

two selections.
Most of the first half of the
show, was devoted to Jennifer,

production
of "Hair."
Although her background is
theatrical, Jennifer sings the same
sort of songs as does Judy Collins or Joni Mitchell. She sings
with a great deal of power and
force and at times seems to generate a kind of electricity.
She does, however, have some
trouble with her voice control.

"Wild Bunch" is the purest
and maybe the only example of
a new Western genre. "Butch

goes beyond both 'the old West

It is, at best, a healthy indication of the new spirit.

'makers end up giving us an
aesthetic of horror poems, odes,

only go so far; "Wild Bunch,"
a magnificent film in so many
ways, showed us some limits.
"Butch and Sundance" marks
a departure in this respect: until the last reel, only a few men
are killed, no blood spurts, and
the death of the heroes is never
realized: only a final, frozen
frame, a perfect idea which must
be seen to be appreciated.
But the new westerns have
sensed this inherent limitation
and have seized on another element, that of legend, how it
arises and how it passes away.
This element has always been
in our westerns, but in the background. The confrontation between Good and. Evil allowed
little time for it. The new moviemakers, to talk meaningfully
about legend, have had to change
the scene of the crime, move it
up a few years.

If
Football Seals

To the Editor of the Kernel:
I would like to call to the attention
of any residence hall floor or organization which plans to use the new group
seating plan for Saturday night's football
game a part of this plan which may
have been overlooked.
Any group using the plan must have
two forms filled out before the lottery
Tuesday morning at 11:45 in Room 545
of the Office Tower.
One form is for the listing of all students whose identification cards are g
turned in for tickets. The other,
which must be filled out in duplicate, is
for stating the total number of tickets'
desired and authorizing someone to pick!
up the tickets and ID cards. The Utter
must be signed by the president of the
organization or the corridor adviser for
the floor.
Both forms are available in the Dean
of Students Office (fifth floor of the new
tower) and can be filled out before the
lottery if picked up early enough Tuesday morning.
I would also point out to those students who will be in line Tuesday morn-- !
ing that they will be rewarded with the
best student tickets (all the student seats
in Section C), and two additional ticket
windows are to be open during the first
hours of distribution. The times for picking up tickets in front of the Coliseum
are exactly the same as they have been
all season, and one person can still take
six IDs and get tickets for himself and
five other students.

No Moratorium
I am concerned about the university's
position regarding the proposed Vietnam
Moratorium scheduled for Oct. 15th. In
the past, I thought that a university was
to be considered an institution of learning and therefore. It should try to remain
open to all points of view. In accordance
with this assumption, shouldn't this university as well as all the others refrain
from advocating a single policy or idea?
According to the "Kernel" dated Oct.
6th, the purpose for our involvement in
the nationwide moratorium is to learn
more about the war and to honor the
lives lost In Vietnam. Only the article
regarding the religious liberals touched
on the impact of this pressure act. I am
afraid that too many students are unaware
that our participation on the 15th would
entail more than just a huge memorial
service or day of learning. It would serve
as a vote of support to the immediate

Back To The Bible
I feel that we, the students of the University of Kentucky, should immediately
(if not sooner) come to realize that it is
now time to evaluate our position objectively concerning the basic issues of the
day, specifically:

What

the correlation between
ideological theories and
practical social action? What effects do
the moral standards of the generations that
preceded us have upon our generation,
who must assume the responsibilities
heaped upon us before we have had a
chance to develop our potentials in leadership, technical ability, and service to
those of our generation and those generations that follow? Lastly, how do we prepare ourselves to assume these responsibilities in light of both what we believe
is right and what we think are the best
solutions for solving the problems of

To Mr., Mrs. andor Miss Shotsy Faust,
sophomore. You center on the belief that
Patt is against exposing UK students
to other cultures. Where did he say that?
He merely stated that Student Government should not have to foot the bill for
every group that wishes to honor their

with Messrs. Goldwater and Kennedy
except that other groups would possibly
like to sponsor affairs for their personal
