TAMMY WYNETTE-Let's Get Together (Epic) ::There are few voices that've illicited raw emotion from me (Dusty Springfield makes me crazy, especially in the summer), but Tammy makes my normally frigiferous sentimentalities turn to Elmer Gantry jelly.

TAMMY WYNETTE-Let's Get Together (Epic) ::There are few voices that've illicited raw emotion from me (Dusty Springfield makes me crazy, especially in the summer), but Tammy makes my normally frigiferous sentimentalities turn to Elmer Gantry jelly. If she ain't the finest country vocalist alive, I'll put my dog into a Vegomatic. The best song here is "Cheatin' Is." Reminds me of Punk Is, which is one of my favorite sayings and this thing is too long. J .F.
THE UNTOUCHABLES-Original Music From The TV Show (Capitol)::This ain't no cow music, no, this is Nelson Riddle at his urban finest. What's more,, the cover has a picture of Robert Stack SMILING; actually it's only a grin, but that's tough enough to handle. The last time I saw Stack smile was in a movie called Asylum For A Spy where he has a mental breakdown and trips out on acid. It could've been one of the most frightening experiences of my life. See it, you'll understand. All the songs here end in ness—eg. "Tender-Ness," "Reckless-Ness," etc. One of the true documents of punk music. Figure that connection out, piss brains. J.F.
