Deaf School: English Boys/Working Girls (Warner Bros.)
Jeffrey Morgan, Creem, July 1978
LET'S FACE IT, Deaf School is a great name (not as great as Deaf Mutes, tho') but, as Arlene Frances (c'mon, you know: Arlene Frances, from To Tell The Truthor is it What's My Line?) once said, "You know how deaf people are; they don't want anyone to know."
