...Quagmires. Not only that, but many of the new groups are reaching back into the past for their material. Cat Mother and the All Night News Boys' Good Old Rock 'n' Roll is on the charts. Creedence Clearwater Revival (TIME, June 27) has recut Screaming Jay Hawkins' I Put a Spell on You and Little Richard's Good Golly Miss Molly, and Bobby Vinton is redoing To Know Him Is to Love Him, Phil Specter's first hit, recorded originally in 1958 by the Teddy Bears...

In 1939, after nearly a decade of playing the quiet and lucky mouse to Stalin's cat, the 44-year-old writer was snatched off to Moscow's Lubyanka prison and never heard from again.
