Out of Focus
(Continued from pane three)
“Requirements! It's bad enough
without worrying about them,
too. Fall and winter term, I reg
ister with an eye to requirements
but spring — nothing doing.
Spring term is a time for relaxa
tion.”
"S’too bad the profs don’t rea
lize that. It’d sure make things
easier.”

Wild Notes
(Continued from page six)
teresting present-day vocalists.
“How High the Moon” in King
Cole's new strictly piano only al
bum (no song, guitar, or dance)
gives your block-chord kicks for
the week. Undoubtedly one of
the best sounds yet to be devel
oped on a musical instrument,
and Nat Cole gives a fancy ex
ample in his "Moon.”
The strictly jazz paragraph is
mentioning the new Mercury
release “No Noise.” Two sides of
the same title featuring Flip
Phillips and Charlie Parker abet
ted by Machito and his Afro-Cu
bans. The title contradicts your
first impression of these sides.
Parker’s side seems to come off
the best. Phillips sounds to be
reading unfamiliar music, how
ever, these are interesting as ex
amples of modern jazz accompan
ied by the peculiarities of the
outstanding Machito gang.
