TIME-LINE

I like the song Richard IX. It is a catchy song: I caught it. I especially like Annie's voice. I like the use of voices as instruments of harmony in the background just as Ray Conniff has used voices for harmony. I hope the group makes a comeback. Annie's voice should have made her a wealthy star and if that didn't happen, it must have been purely promotional politics, because she has great voice control over many octaves. The musical arrangement is good: I like the use of crescending to a high pitch as Leonard Bernstein had called the humor in music--sounds good to my ear.
