MASK TWAIN'S fAhouYentareoof TfclebcrriiBnii he suddenly blew it. For those who have never been exposed to Rose's not inconsiderable talents, it might be helpful to describe him (in a very loose sense) as a combination of Henry Gibson (in-nocent whimsicality), Tom Lehrer (clever satire; wickedly rollicking piano) and, well Biff Rose. A warm and engaging man, possessed of a subtle, decidedly manic wit, Rose wove an intriguing patch THOMAS Writer For the first 20 minutes of his opening set at the Troubadour Tuesday night Biff Rose had every-1 thing going pretty much his way; he almost immediately captured the crowds attention and in-, terest, "creating a soft, low-' keyed mood which was building steadily towards a satisfying and logical conclusion.
