All of us are hearing melodies and rhythms that at first seem not only esoteric but also incomprehensible, The gratifying surprise is that, after a hit, they no longer seem puzzling.

Columbia sent us two of Its folk music albums, one with na QQC LEAN 100 PURE Ground BEEF quality, to he sure, is devastating shrill, but. what of it? And there is one melody that is dis-ronrertingly like our own blues," The rest is cruder from an Occidental point of view, but there are power and meaning and sincerity there, just the same. As for the Scotch songs, you will not lind "Blue Hells of Scotland" or "f'omin' Through the Rye'' In these old folk tunes. You will find, instead, a good deal of humor, a good deal of spontaneity and some of the loveliest songs ever heard, all sung, not. by professional artists, but by the people.

The two records are a find" to those of us who are always seeking music that is refreshing and honest, and fully meant. FIT FOR A KING STANDING RIB WHOLE OR HALF PORK LOIN ROAST Friskies has There's a new "coo!" sound to Duke Ellington' orchestra. It shows up in "ALL DAY LONG," quite different from his famous band of old. A novelty, "TYROLEAN TANGO," is on the reverse of the Capitol waxing.

Always a controversial figure In the music of the day, the produce of this personable mu-sicmaker is either avidly sought after or coldly shunned. If you are a Kenton fan, you will applaud his latest brain child. From Capitol Records comes a new series, called KENTON PRESENTS JAZZ. Each album in the series of six spotlights a Kenton disciple, who in turn is backed up by three other musicians whose style complements the lead man. KHillT I'lKCES TO AN ALBl'M into the category of what has b.en variously called progressive jazz, modern jazz, or bop, an album of eight selections has been devoted to the talents of each of the following: Sal Salvador, Boots Mussulli, Frank Rosolino, Bill Holman, Roh Cooper and Claude Williamson.

The album, in truth, is an engineer's delight, for this experimenting turns sounds into extraordinary sounds by raising or lowering the customary pitch of everything.

You did the same thing with your old 78s, because the old phonographs had a speed regulator. You do the same thing more easily, and more hilariously, with your new three-speed phonographs. Only, of course, not as scientifically as Fassett and his engineers do it.
