<![CDATA[Whatever the psychology behind Phil Spector&#8217;s &#8220;wall of sound&#8221; on such records 
as Be My Baby and You&#8217;ve Lost That Lovin&#8217; Feelin&#8217;, his obsessions depended 
upon coolly diligent Larry Levine. An engineer a dozen years Spector&#8217;s 
senior, he enabled a small, low, hot Los Angeles studio&#8217;s acoustics to turn 
massed instruments and vocalists into something that leapt from humble radio 
speakers worldwide. &#8220;Larry&#8217;s a nice fellow, really sweet,&#8221; said Spector, who 
worked with him again, less equably, in the Seventies.]]>

<![CDATA[When the critic and exhibition organiser Richard Buckle presented his charity 
gala The Greatest Show on Earth at the London Coliseum in June 1971, he 
included the Spanish dancer Pilar L&#243;pez, who at 49 was approaching 
retirement and known to most of the audience only by repute. Yet her 
zarzuela solo fully held its own among an assembly of the greatest 
international stars. Perfect foot and arm placement and glittering castanet 
playing were among her special qualities.]]>

<![CDATA[Born on Hogmanay 1935, Jeff Torrington grew up in Glasgow&#8217;s iconic area of 
old&#45;time tenement deprivation, the Gorbals, and worked in the Linwood car 
manufacturing plant, the home of a symbol of the new era coming into being, 
the 1960s Hillman Imp. Torrington contracted tuberculosis at the age of 13 
and while recuperating in a Govan sanatorium became a voracious reader 
(teaching himself French to read Camus and Sartre), and also became a 
humanist.]]>

of Avon and Somerset, had no idea what was to confront him when he heard

<![CDATA[Frith Banbury was totally wedded to the West End theatre. He shared in its 
glories and its shortcomings; he was at one with its intrigues and its way 
of life. And his own fortunes tended to rise and fall with the strength of 
the commercial theatre. Banbury&#8217;s power as a director was at its zenith 
during the 1950s, when H. M. Tennent, under Hugh &#8220;Binkie&#8221; Beaumont and his 
feline assistant John Perry, ruled over Shaftesbury Avenue and its gilded 
outpost, the Haymarket Theatre. During that decade the West End did not look 
like the West End without a Banbury&#45;directed drama on somewhere. The leading 
playwrights of the day were placed into his hands and he nurtured them: 
Robert Bolt, John Whiting, Wynyard Browne and N. C. Hunter.]]>

<![CDATA[Torakichi &#8220;Pete&#8221; Nakamura was one of the most successful and most famous 
Japanese golfers of the 20th century. His success in international 
competition became a source of pride for a country seeking to regain the 
respect of the world after the catastrophe of the Second World War, and also 
helped to make golf one of Japan&#8217;s most popular sports.]]>

<![CDATA[Rugby league is marking its 100th year in Australia. When it came to naming 
Australia&#8217;s Team of the Century, as part of the celebrations, the choice of 
coach for this mythical side was unequivocal. Jack Gibson was often referred 
to as a &#8220;supercoach&#8221; or &#8220;master coach&#8221;, whose methods and philosophy 
transformed the game both in Australia and here in Britain.]]>

<![CDATA[While the succession of Sheikh Saad al&#45;Abdullah al&#45;Salem al&#45;Sabah to the 
position of Emir of Kuwait, on the death of his predecessor and cousin, 
Sheikh Jaber al&#45;Ahmad al&#45;Sabah on January 15, 2006, was predictable, the 
circumstances surrounding his abdication a mere nine days later were 
unprecedented. As Crown Prince since 1978, Sheikh Saad&#8217;s assumption of the 
Kuwaiti throne as the 14th Emir was the constitutional norm, but the 
decision to remove him from power by the Kuwaiti National Assembly 
(Parliament) &#8212; the first elected parliament formed in any Gulf Arab state &#8212; 
was unique.]]>

<![CDATA[Morgan Sparks was best known as the inventor of the first working practical 
transistor, a device that has revolutionised almost all aspects of modern 
life. Without transistors, the electronic devices we rely on, such as 
personal computers, mobile phones, DVD players, televisions, radios, 
electronic musical instruments and thousands of others, would not be 
imaginable. The transistor is thought by many to be the most important 
invention of the 20th century.]]>
