MUTHA: Black Oak Arkansas; Atco Black Oak and its rebel son Jim Mungrum make their earthy country rock sweet and gritty. They sound their grinding best when recorded live. This set was taken from a Mother's Day concert, far away from the Arkansas backwoods, in Long Beach, Calif. Like the group's earlier live album, "Live Raunch and Roll," this one is worth a listen.

While four of the nine songs here are from their "Ain't Life Grand?" album, all four twitch with a mean fever when caught live. "Fancy Nancy" especially excites with its snap-and-roll guitar rhythms. Still, Jim Dandy and his men leave me wanting more than just these few songs. Black Oak, like both Kiss J. Geils, is the kind of high-impact band that needs the crowd out front to spark the rowdy feel of the songs.

Even their high-quality studio work sounds cold by comparison. One album covering a live show from start to finish from their opening anthem "Dixie" to "Fighting Cock" would show what B.O.A. is all about and satisfy the way Mangrum likes to think he can. DANA SUE JACKSON Wizardry With iiuiiar JIM HALL, LIVE! A Records or one of the world's finest guitarists, Jim Hall is surprisingly little known. But in the last year or so Hall has recorded several outstanding and accessible albums which should expand his fame.

Among those albums are sessions with the likes of Paul Desmond and Chet Baker. On this one, though, there are no horns just Hall's impeccable guitar in a trio setting. For his improvisational and good-humored wizardry, Hall selects five jazz and pop standards as the framework and alludes to two dozen more. It is all harmonious and intelligent; each improvisation goes somewhere. On the album, recorded "PRETTY BLUE: Wes Montgomery, and THE JAPANESE CONCERTS: Can-wfntfall Adderly; both on Mirestone Records Wes Montgomery's electric guitar nn spark a marvelously heaipmt quality, like big ChfkCmas bulbs falling randomly from the tree.

Montgomery, who played in Detroit after leaving Indiana, was always accorded live (as it says) one night at Toronto's Bourbon Street, Canadians Don Thompson on bass and Terry Clarke on drums are more than complementary. For the nitpickers, Hall adds this note: "Listeners who object to the loss of two beats in 'Scrapple from the Apple' will be happy to find them added on to 'I Hear a -A. CRUDEN TOP SINGLES 1.

He wrote all the music, and surrounded him-with such studio pros as Andrew Gold, Steve Cropper, Lee Ritenour, Nigel Olsson, Jim Keltner and Stan Richards. Polnareff plays several instruments as well. He sings on all nine songs with a mannered, polished yet spirited tenor. The numbers range from an Elton John-ish ballad to a direct and simple rocker called "Since I Saw You." It's a pleasant album, a cut above the run of AM radio these days.

Wes made his public fame, however, more in the pop than the jazz trade.

First, you were correct in rejecting both a pass and one no trump as possible actions. There is no reason to suppose you can defeat one heart (or even four hearts, for that matter), and a bid of one no trump is a positive action showing a reasonable hand some 9-10 points. Partner's double asks you to bid your longest suit, and you should never bid a doubleton if there is any other choice. Here, your correct bid is two clubs, the lower ranking of your two suits of equal length. Don't worry about going to the two-level you are not showing any particular strength, you are simply bidding as cheaply as possible.

How should I have played this hand in four spades: AK106S 94 AQ95 6 4 4 A 4752 VKQJ7J VR652 84 2 10 8 3 A 1082 Q75 AQJ984 AH) 4 KJ7 9 West, who had made a take combo, rising to glory on the likes of "Round Midnight" and "For All We Know." The Cannonball album, with brother Nat on cornet and Yusef Lateef on flute, sax and oboe, are from a 1963 concert in Japan. Two sides were never before issued, and they include Nat's deep, tough "Work Song."

A. Since the double probably marks West with both black aces, you have to guess his distribution in order to avoid losing two club tricks. If he has a guarded ace of spades, you must try to sneak through a trump trick, eliminate diamonds and then end-play West with the ace of spades. However, that line requires West's co-operation. If he has two trumps, he can frustrate you by winning the ace of spades, cashing a heart and exiting with a diamond or a trump.

The legitimate line, which requires no defensive assistance, is to play West for a bare ace of trumps. Win the ace of hearts and cash three rounds of diamonds. Now lead a trump to West's ace, and he is endplayed. After cashing his high heart, he must either give you a ruff-and-sluff or lead a club to your king. In either event, you will lose only one club trick since you can discard a club on the thirteenth diamond.

Each week a prize of a copy of the new Goren's Bridge Complete, will be awarded for the question judged the best received. Don't buy any loudspeaker until you test drive it. Challenge it. If you're buying a tape deck or a turntable or a receiver, look at it for looks, read the spec sheet and take any honest expert's word.

That's all you need to do. But loudspeakers are different. They have character. They have personality. And no one can tell you what you like.

Except you. How do you find out what you like? Here's one way: Bring your own music. March right into the store with your favorite record or tape reel or cassette. Something you know by heart. If you listen to that music on a new loudspeaker and hear shadings and detail and depth and texture you've never heard before -you've probably just found yourself a new roommate.

The other reason to bring your own musii is that you're wasting your time evaluating a loudspeaker by listening to AM or FM radio. Some of our best friends are radios. But broadcast sound doesn't have any high highs or low lows. They're clipped off at the station. Then the signal is strained through generations of electronics before it gets to you.

For all those reasons, it's no way to test a loudspeaker. One more idea: You shouldn't have to judge a loudspeaker while you're listening to three other speakers, six other conversations and a partridge in a pear tree. If you're serious about sound, find someone who's serious about helping you. Find a dealer with proper demonstration facilities. That's easy.

If it says "Authorized JBL Dealer," relax, friend. You've come to the right place. 9 as CHARLES GOREN -v. lj ottrm DEAR MR. GOREN: Q.

During the course of play in a recent tournament, declarer led a spade from his hand and, after his left-hand opponent followed, he instructed dummy to play "any spittle." Dummy then played a spade high enough to win the triefk. Is this permissible, or do the; defenders have the right to instruct dummy which spade to play? Mrs. J. W. Elkins Park, Pa.

(This question has been awjrded the weekly prize.) A-. According to Law 46 of the'. rTew Laws of Duplicate Bridge; if declarer "designates 'a suit but not a rank" of the-card he wants played from duiiimy, "he is deemed to have played the lowest card in thelsuit." Thus, under the circumstances you describe dummy should play the lowest spade. If he does not do so, the defenders can require that um retract the card played and substitute his lowest' card in the suit led. 4 This innocent looking harjd caused considerable disagreement at our local Qxxxx ss XXX A xxx.

Myleft-hand opponent open-d heart, partner doubled nd.it was pass to me. What hoiilI do? I elected to bid JBL offers a number of different high fidelity loudspeakers from $156 to $3210.
