Aerosmith, who enjoyed strong success in theseventies with classic songs like Walk This Wayand Dream On, rebounded in the late '80s to onceagain become one of the world's top -selling actswith a series of successful albums on the Geffenlabel. The band recently left Geffen

New Nirvana live to be released October 9From The Muddy Banks Of The Wishkah, acollection of live performances by grungetrendsetters Nirvana, will be released October 9via DGC Records (distributed in Canada by MCA).

The album will feature 16 tracks, recordedbetween 1989 and 1994, at various venues inlocales such as Seattle, London and Amsterdam.The sites range from small, intimate clubs, to themassive Reading Festival in England.

The two remaining Nirvana members, KristNovoselic and Dave Grohl, spent several monthslistening to more than a hundred hours of tapes toselect the tracks.

According to Novoselic, "It's an aggressiverecord. Hopefully, people who didn't get to see uslive will get a flavour of what the band was allabout. Most of the songs we chose were ones weplayed every night."

Novoselic also contributed the liner notes forthe album.

Mixed by Andy Wallace, the album representsthe harder side of Nirvana in concert, as comparedto the more acoustical side documented on the 1994release, MTV Unplugged In New York.

Originally, a two -CD live set was in the offing,featuring one side culled from the band's MTVUnplugged set, and another from the group'selectric performances. However, the process ofreviewing the live tapes, so soon after the April'94 suicide of Kurt Cobain, proved too emotionallydifficult for Novoselic and Grohl, resulting in theUnplugged set being released on its own.

According to DGC A&R exec Mark Kates,"Nirvana was a great live band and I always feltthere should be an album to document the intensityof their best performances. Unplugged represents

a great moment and an important side of the band,but this record gets to the core of what it was liketo see one of their shows."

Two tracks on From The Muddy Banks OfThe Wishkah actually predate the band'sbreakthrough album, Nevermind: Polly and Breedboth being recorded in London in 1989. Themajority of the songs come from the band's 1991world tour: Drain You, Aneurysm, Smells LikeTeen Spirit, Been A Son, Lithium, School, NegativeCreep, Blew and Spank Thru. The recording ofTourette's comes from the band's 1992 appearanceat the Reading Festival. Sliver, ScentlessApprentice and Heart -Shaped Box come from theIn Utero tour, while Milk It comes from a January1994 concert in Seattle.

From The Muddy Banks Of The Wishkah isnamed for the river that intersects Aberdeen,Washington, where the group was founded, andwhere Novoselic and Cobain grew up.

Collins noted in a press release that he was Sony apparently agreed with Collins, and thefired by the band during a meeting held in a Boston release of the new album has been postponed fromhotel at the end of July. According to a story in September to late November, at the earliest. ForThe Boston Globe, Collins noted, "They're great the moment, Aerosmith has promoted guitarist Joeentertainers, but I had a definite vision, and they Perry to the appropriately -titled position oftold me...that they don't share that vision." chairman of the board, to handle the band's

Collins went on to note that the band members managment.didn't wish to support such causes as lobbying for The 42 year -old Collins has supposedly turnedsobriety and First Ammendment rights. Band down management offers from Guns N' Roses,members were also apparently annoyed at the fact Pearl Jam and Bruce Hornsby, and reportedly alsothat Collins wanted them to record more songs for turned down an offer to manage the Kiss comebacktheir upcoming album, which they felt was already tour.

Charlatans to carry on after Collin's deathFollowing the sudden death of keyboardist RobCollins, the UK group The Charlatans released astatement, indicating the group will continue onward.

Collins, a founding member of the band, waskilled in a car accident on July 23 in Wales. Thegroup, often compared with The Stone Roses, hadtheir first flash of fame in the early '90s in the so-called Manchester Explosion, which also offeredthe likes of the Roses, the Happy Mondays andInspiral Carpets.

The band were working at Rockfield Studiosin Wales on their fifth album at the time of Collins'death. A statement indicated that the album was"75% complete", and that the remaining bandmembers would return to the studio in October in

Fabulous Thunderbirds, The Radiators and The Gale Brothers. Tickets for this show are available

JVC festival. San Francisco harmonica player Mark Hummel will perform on Aug. 22 at the Silver

Dollar, with Saffire The Uppity Blues Women trio

4- RPM - Monday August 12, 1996 Nicholson bring

oJALT shy&Insulting the eardrums!!! Thosemorning team cacklers are a realturn-off. It doesn't seem to matterwhat show you tune into, there theyare. Where a meaningful gigglewould do, they prefer -thosepretentious, loud and irritatingcackles. I can put up with thesometimes there Wally Crouter andhis very -opinionated sports partner,who can get a rise out of me quite often. I hope thenew guy doesn't show up with unnecessarybaggage, like a cackler. If he does, there goes theshow, for me anyway. (EC: What the hell's acackler???)

Government nod to Dick Drew!!! Contraryto what we hear on a daily basis from BC, Ottawadoes recognize lotusland. In fact, the House ofCommons, through Reform MP Bob Ringma(Nanaimo-Cowichan), paid tribute to Dick Drewand his Canadian Achievers. After giving a briefhistory of Dick's own achievements, he said "Forthose looking to find a source which highlights thespirit and motivation of individual Canadians, DickDrew's radio snow and book on Canadian achieversis a welcome contribution to Canadian unity." (EC:Here! Here!)

The little guys are hurtin' too!!! I wonder howmany of us are aware that there are still a lot ofmom & pop record stores across the nation, andsmall one -stops. These small operations, mosthanging by a thread, have refused to be pushed outof the way or intimidated by the large chains. So,business is bad with the major chains? How aboutthese little guys, who don't have the advantage ofhuge discounts, and who we hear from, from timeto time? Cove Distributors, out in Prince Rupert,D&B Music Emporium up in Brampton, Ontario,and Wilson & Lee in Oshawa. They're allsubscribers to RPM, and in the case of Wilson &Lee, from the beginning. Bernie Hunter at D&B ispretty steamed up over the amount of business sheloses to the record clubs. But she also has harshwords for some of the record companies, whocharge them top buck for product. Of course, shecan't buy in large quantities like the chainoperations, but nevertheless, these small operationsdo sell product and might even order more if theywere given some discount consideration. (EC: Itwas a fun industry during the mom & pop days!!!)

Jane Bunnett shafted!!! The US paranoia overCanadians doing business with Cuba has it's firstcasualty, a Canadian jazz artist. Jane Bunnett, whohas gained critical acclaim in jazz circles aroundthe world, has been given the American "thumbs -down". All her US dates were reportedly cancelledjust before she was to sign the contract. ApparentlyBunnett owns a house and has some club holdingsin Cuba. An insider with US Immigration hints thatCanadians who take holidays in Cuba, might alsobe on the grease. And on their next trip south, theycould be denied entry into the US. (EC: Theircomputers must be pretty full!!!)

Blockbuster air miles??? Blockbuster is notonly advertising that they have the "hottest stars

with Elvira Capreese

in music,", but they're giving away 10bonus air miles if you buy one of them,

if you have a voucher, that is. Thevoucher has a pretty good four-colourdisplay of some of the titles they'reoffering, including Bryan Adams,Gloria Estefan, Toni Braxton,Tragically Hip, Metallica and DefLeppard. Wisely, they haven'tmentioned prices. (EC: Others do, like

$13.95 for Black Crowes, or how about Dance Hits'96, the #1 album last week, for $14.79???)

Right on! Alanis!!! Some of the media weaselsare complaining about the "tight -lip" of AlanisMorissette. Hopefully, she'll continue themystique. Obviously, it hasn't hurt. Her JaggedLittle Pill album is about to break the 12 -millionsales mark, a record for a solo female, set byWhitney Houston back in 1985. (EC: Watch for amedia gangbang! ! !)

Not the time!!! Rumours have it that one majoris considering lifting prices. One guy says it's betterto raise prices when the business is flat. Then, whenbusiness kicks into gear, usually in the fall, theimpact of higher prices would have come and gone.In theory, that's pretty good logic, and it's workedin the past. Let's hope that business kicks in, inthe fall, not like last year, three weeks beforeChristmas. (EC: Let's be positive now!!!)

Randy Bachman Fonds??? The music divisionof the National Library of Canada, a staidorganization if there ever was a staid organization,scored a coup. They're calling it "a breakthroughinto the rock music world." Randy Bachman, lateof the Guess Who, Brave Belt and BTO, as well ashaving his finger in Iron Horse, Trooper, OriginalCrayons and Noah, and, I'm sure, others, has turnedover to the national library "more than eight linearmetres (EC: I see what you mean by staid! ! !) oftextual documents and hundreds of hours ofrecorded sound." That includes biographicalsketches, information on contracts, scores andlyrics to songs, prizes, awards and honourablementions, and a lot more. Then, archivist andconsultant Stephane Jean went to work,numerically listing what is now a national treasureunder the heading of the Randy Bachman Fonds(EC: What's a fond???). And, according toWebster Encyclopedic Dictionary, fond means "tobe foolish; to play the fool." (EC: You gotta bekidding! ! !) Wait, there's more. It also means"Having affection for; excessively affectionate;cherished highly or unreasonably, as He had fondhopes of becoming a millionaire." (EC: Now! I gotit. What a great tax write-off.'!)

Venue is here to stay!!! Dick Smyth, in a recentToronto Sun column, takes on people who use"venue" for location. We know it's a legal termfor the location of a crime or the place where atrial will be held, but it's been a part of rock 'n rollsince the beginning. When mangers, bookers andagents use it, it kind of gives them a feeling ofbeing legal, you know legit. (EC: Them, you cancount on one hand!! !) And then, when writers beganusing it in reference to concerts, that was it. The

next wave of dictionaries will probably list "venue"as a place where a concert is held, and then thelawyers can take offense. (EC: If they can makemoney, they will! ! !)

On the road, again!!! When that record -company -on -the -road bus has a flat tire on theTrans -Canada Highway, what in -bus executive willhave to change the tire? (EC: Answer! Next week?If they have a flat tire!!!)

Ho! Hum! Warner Warriors!!! They still topthe standing and could be a shoo-in for the RPMCup. Here's this week's scores:

Mercury/Polydor 12 - MCA 8Slammin' Discs 9 - MCA 11Warner Wackers 15 - Sony Ballbusters 12EMI 0 - Warner Wackers 1(F)Sony Wonders 8 - Mercury/Polydor 6Disc Counts 2 - Sony Wonders 15Mix 99.9 17 - EMI 15Sony Ballbusters 7 - Slammin' Discs 14Sony Wonders 1 - Disney 0(F)Warner Wackers 28 - CHUM 11

Toronto's Big Rude Jake releases new album to rave reviews

L dimensional artist The politic of the by Rod Gudino

Swing kids they called them, and during the world

war they were looked on as the personification of rebellion, brash youth and free spirit, embodying

the desires of a saner world in the guise of carefree adolescence. Over fifty years after the fact, there

is no Luftwaffe whistling over the city and punk rock and its influences have become the uncouth,

violent and dirty rebellion of a new world for which

war is only a series of old photographs. And it was perhaps because of this changed

modern climate that the dark and trimly suited Gentlemen Players led by one Big Rude Jake

caused more furrowed brows than wide eyes when they broke into Toronto's moderately conservative

independent scene several years ago. Not that the talent was not evident from the get -go, just that

the artist as marketable commodity was lost within the turn of the century gangster noire world which

Jake and Gentlemen did their utmost to inhabit. As a result, Big Rude Jake was largely

overlooked as a novelty act by industry majors in Canada, though the independent market caught

hold of the upswing instantly, propelling and maintaining Jake's 1993 debut titled Butane Fumes

And Bad Cologne at the top of retail indie charts for nine consecutive months. As novelty, Jake and

Gentlemen Players had hit their audience bang on, making a gangster heaven of Toronto's little Italy

at midnight and contributing to at least a marginal rise in suit sales around the city.

There was however, one small crease in the black solid line of pressed Armanis: the absence

of a desire to be classified as a novelty act in the first place. Releasing a live album in 1994 as a

calling card for their continued existence, Jake set about to bring important changes to his group by

juggling band members, trimming the act's name to his own and setting about to record a starkly

new record called Blue Pariah, which saw release this past June.

The album, which is one of those must -hear releases, has deftly cut at the artery of novelty while

maintaining the corpus of the original vision. All of the pretence in Jake's stogie chomping badass

attitude has been dipped in formaldehyde while the music has taken a sharp turn to the right... off a

cliff and into a maelstrom of concentrated rebel yells through the 20th century. From jazz and

swing, to blues, soul and punk -

the wild spirit of the generations is here fired by blood, iced by

sagacity and blown larger than life by musical self-

government and precision timing. Like we said, Blue Pariah is one of those albums that has got to

be heard. Jake, who is acutely aware of the band's historical, musical and lyrical roots to the degree

of qualified academe, is also aware that he has struck on something oddly new and yet glaringly

familiar on Blue Pariah. The man of whom Big Sugar's Gordie Johnson once said lives like a

pauper and looks like a king, speaks like artist, promoter and manager all at once, continuously

lapsing from pragmatism to poetry without losing that crucial sense of timing.

"My reasons for liking [the album] are pretty selfish," he concedes. "I'm very happy that we are

able to give it a very contemporary and very unified sound; that we were able to put the songs first and

that we were able to take a little bit of time to develop each song. In doing so we were able to

demonstrate that the band are a bunch of excellent players, that the songs are well written and well

arranged and that the lyrics are something worth listening to."

Undoubtedly the sensibility of his approach was what, at least in part, rescued Jake from the

trinket box of the disposable novelty act. Though as yet still ignored by majors, the industry at the

street level has sat up and taken notice that Blue Pariah has more than given spats to jazz and dressed

up the blues. And those who have become aware have governed themselves accordingly: just last

week Toronto's Outside Records agreed to distribute Blue Pariah. Later, a new agency decided

that they would work in tandem with Jake to push the release.

"I've had people come up to me since the release of the record and say I've been a fan of

yours for three or four years and I never realised how great the songs were," says Jake. "That's

immediately thrilling and disheartening at the same time because it just goes to show how difficult it

is to get a message across in a nightclub." The interest has also caught on with artists

such as Big Sugar's Gordie Johnson, who produced, and Ashley MacIsaac who appears on the new

album. "There was a lot of energy going down at that time," says Jake of the collaborations. "It was

a pretty exciting place to be and we ended up working on each others projects a lot."

Though still commercially unproven, the album stands a serious shot at the alternative

mainstream, taking into consideration the accessible and punk contemporary backbone of the

disc, evidenced especially in tunes like Cold Steel Hammer, Swing Baby!, Sliver Man and the title

track. But after all, Big Rude Jake is still very much

a dramatis persona; as much the mythical blue pariah who is the album's centrepiece as the

inhabitant of the diners and streets strewn with garbage and magical realism which describe his

reinvented Toronto. To industry majors that might still reek of novelty but Jake contends it is not so.

Ever the pragmatist, he insists that all of that has to do as much with artistic expression as it does

with plain survival. "I think one of the biggest problems that any

artist has is to appear three dimensional in the media, especially young artists," he says. "If you

are an artist that has been around for a couple of decades like Bob Dylan or even Elvis Costello,

then you have the leverage over time to be able to explore and express many aspects of your character

and of your art. But for the most part we live in a soundbite society.

"I think it was Noam Chomsky who said it is impossible to describe a new idea in less than

twenty minutes. So if you have a new band I would imagine you need at least twenty minutes to describe it, but there is no twenty minutes in the

media. So if you don't pick an image that is not easily packaged into something neat and tidy and

expressible in five syllables or less, then you are running a risk of being misunderstood, ignored or worse, having an image crafted for you."

For a person like Big Rude Jake, the possibility of being handed an ready-made image

might be just as bad as having the image he so laboured to fashion disintegrate before the acidic

effects of marketing requirements ultimately insensitive and ignorant of his product's aesthetic

and material value. That possibility was something that Jake had to eliminate.

"We were the great big funny wise guys I think for a long time in Canadian music and fortunately

we've had a lot of people sit down and listen to the record," he says, noting that there has been an marked change in the public's perception of Big

Rude Jake since the album's release. But Jake knows that a rule is merely a suggestion on playing

the game, just as he knows that the clever man never gives his hand up entirely, especially when

he's got a winner. "I'd be lying to you if I said I wasn't a bit of

a wiseguy anyway," he laughs. "I mean, it isn't like that isn't true..But at the same time there is

more to the story and it's finally coming out. I wish it happened seven years ago, but there you go."

NIGEL KENNEDY -InstrumentalKafkaEMI -52212-FIf the world of classical world has anythingof a rock and roll spiritual adviser, that personwould likely be Mr. Kennedy. Not content tosimply sift through the back catalogues ofthe classical array, settling comfortably intothe world of pristine concert halls andmodest record sales, Kennedy has insteadflexed his violin bow like a double-edgedsword, slamming his way through theclassics the way one of his idols, JimiHendrix, ravaged his way through the StarSpangled Banner, bringing to it a new life andnew energy. Kennedy became the classicalworld's punk rocker, capable of making evenas soft a piece as Vivaldi's Four Seasonssound like something new and vibrant. HisVivaldi interpretation is now considered oneof the biggest selling classical CDs of all time,and its success, combined with Kennedy'sconcert success, paved the way for thisinspiring diversion, as close a device toclassical pop as anything ever attemptedbefore. Kennedy originally had set his sightson the music of Hendrix himself. But hebacked away, instead taking a more prosaicapproach, sifting through traditionalmelodies from throughout the world,working with some extraordinarily giftedmusicians, to come up with this unique pieceof work. New age is the first phrase thatcomes to mind, but that would be shufflingKennedy off into a specific category, andspecifics aren't fair for a work such as this.The musicians working with him - guitaristJohn Etheridge, bassist Danny Thompson,violin Stephane Grappelli, vocalists JaneSiberry and Stephen Duffy, among others -all bring a differing sensibility to the work.The most inspiring is drummer Manu Katche(Peter Gabriel, Sting), perhaps the mostmusical drummer in existence, who bringsadded life to the works. Autumn Regrets isthe beautiful opening piece, and also key areI Believe In God, From Adam To Eve, SoleilLevant Sure La Seine and Breathing Stone.It's hard to describe it, you'll just have to hearit and decide for yourself what category itfits into. If you really need to categorize it,that is. -RR

TIN CUP O.S.T. -Rock/PopVarious ArtistsEpic -67609-HThe whole idea behind this soundtrack thingis that people will go see the movie, hear thegreat tunes that fill up the. soundtrack, andthen rush out and buy the CD. Well, that'ssupposed to be how it works, anyway. Whatseems to be happening now is that the CDsuppliers are turning this soundtrackbusiness into its own self-sustaining lifeline.

Forget about waiting for the movie, waitingto see whether or not it'll be a hit or not. Let'sjust throw the soundtrack out there, led inby a good lead single, and will worry about

the movie selling the songs at a later date. Itworked with Empire Records (did anyone seethe movie), and it could easily work here, aswell. This soundtrack is just loaded with hitpotential, with any number of the 14 tunesready and waiting to be picked up by AC orcountry radio programmers. The Epicsoundtrack is obviously slanted towardsSony artists, hence the inclusion of suchcurrent hot artists as Amanda Marshall (thelead single, This Could Take All Night), PattyLoveless (Where Are You Boy), Mary ChapinCarpenter (Let Me Into Your Heart) andShawn Colvin (Back To Salome). But there'salso a mishmash of strong artists from otherlabels as well, like Bruce Hornsby (Big Stick,Nobody There But Me), the underrated JoeEly (Character Flaw), and Chris Isaak (IWonder). In other words, this soundtrackshould be able to float along on its own justfine. Now, when you factor in the fact thatthis is Kevin Costner's big comeback film,following the near -disaster that wasWaterworld, well, you can see why Epic isbetting heavily on this one. -RR

KENNY LATTIMOREKenny LattimoreColumbia -67125-HPure rhythm and blues, the kind of stuff thatMotown was churning out in waves in thesixties and seventies, has been somethinglike a lost little puppy in the past few years.The stuff that the labels like to call R&B ismore often than not just slow moving danceand pop, stamped with an RH code to makeit a little more appealing for the right crowd.,Pure R&B and soul, the stuff that madelegends out of Sam Cooke and Otis Redding,would shrivel up and die if it had a drummachine or computer sampler slapped onto it. And that's where Mr. Lattimore comesin. You see, this particular fellow has sometalent. It's not enough that he's a terrificsinger, which he is, enough to make most ofthe pretenders out there shiver in their boots.But the fact is, he's also a terrific songwriter,and it's that double duty that is making thefolks at Columbia in the US just so excitedthey're ready to burst. Lattimore is also aproducer in his own right, but he chose,perhaps wisely, to allow the well-heeled likesof Keith Crouch, Kipper Jones, HerbMiddleton, Kenneth Crouch and others tomake the production decisions. There's stillsome dance -tinge stuff here, like theuptempo, beat -oriented movers like the leadsingle, Never Too Busy, or Just What It Takes.But there's also some quieter moments too,

-R&B

with For You and Always Remember. Andit's in those quieter moments, the oneswhere Lattimore's voice really shinesthrough, that you appreciate what a couldF18.13/soul singer can do - reach down intoyour insides and fill you up with somethingfew others can even feel. -RR

ALICE IN CHAINSMTV UnpluggedColumbia 67703-HIt seems that when Nirvana decided that theycould do an unplugged album, they prettymuch opened wide the door for any band,however removed from the acoustic, toexploit the subtleties and tender possibilitiesburied in their music. But Alice In Chains?Before you laugh too loud, be reminded thata group like this, whose musicunquestionably belongs to the hard andheavy end of things, could benefit most froman unplugged set as the music stands toundergo the most drastic transformation indoing so. Alice In Chains have certainlyrealised that in putting out an unpluggedrelease they would have to virtually reinventmany of their staple tunes. They have risento the challenge by putting out anexceptionally crafted, musically perceptivebody of work. From the slow andcontemplative Nutshell to harder edgedSludge Factory, Alice's sombre apocalypsesare made into soft narcotic flowers, pretty intheir own hideous kind of way, by the use ofacoustic guitar. More than Nirvana, MN canlay claim to adding fire fury to a trend thathas found an extremity of expression andsuccess in a band such as Alice In Chains.Expect a high entrance at retail with a goodchance at longevity. -RG

THE IRISH DESCENDANTS - Celtic/PopLivin' On The EdgeWEA-14857-POne listen to The Rock And A Hard Place,cleverly released as the first focus track(comp 294), is proof positive there's more tothese Newfoundland lads than the wailing ofceltic traditional material that's becomingredundant. Big Con O'Brien has that equallybig voice to do justice to Bruce Guthro's lyricsand music. Country programmers shouldpatch into this track. It's a natural end -of -summer type of song. By the way, that's KimDeschamps of Blue Rodeo on peddle steeland Cindy Church with a vocal assist. Alsokey is Uncle Dan and Dirty Old Town. And, awonderfully -interpreted Ron Hynes dittytitled Away. No! The lads haven't forsakentheir celtic roots. They've mixed in somememorable gems like The Irish Rover withthe more contemporary Ron Kavanagh's

Shamrock City and Lennie Gallant's Days OfGiving. They've also sneaked in a delightfulinstrumental, The Eavesdropper/TheConnaughtman's Ramble with no credits.Kathy Phippard's keyboard work isexceptional, leading the way for the othertraditional and contemporary instrumentalofferings that are so much a part of theseproud fishermen cum musicians. Recordedand mixed at Solar Audio in Halifax. -WG

ALBUM PICKA TRIBUTE TO STEVIE RAY VAUGHANVarious ArtistsEpic -67599-HIt was the night of August 26, 1990 that a truly once -in -a -lifetime group of artists gottogether to put on a memorable night of blues, a group that featured the likes of EricClapton, Buddy Guy, Bonnie Raitt, Robert Cray, Doctor John, B.B. King, and of course,Stevie Ray and little brother Jimmie. Then, the helicopter crashed, the blues worldshook with the accompanying tremor, and an artist just reaching his creative nadirwas gone. Five years later, those artists who had shared the stage with Stevie Raywere back together again, to hold a concert, and to keep the memory alive. It's strangewhat the death of an artist will do, how it will elevate that artist to a new height neverseen during their lifetime. But in Vaughan's case, the elevation is apt. He was amonumental talent, one who took thesimplest blues ideas and turned them intorock and roll fire. In the span of just a handfulof albums, Vaughan had left an impressivelegacy, and the rush of fans to gather in theglow after his death hasn't diminished thatlegacy one bit. That's why these artistsgathered again -they knew the music meantenough to keep Vaughan's spirit alive, morethan the novelty of his tragic demise. Epic,instead of focusing on one track, is basicallyservicing the entire album to radio, allowingthem the difficult task of focusing on justone track, which won't be easy. You've gotBonnie Raitt slamming out Pride And Joy,Jimmie bringing his own power to TexasFlood, Buddy Guy straining out Long WayFrom Home, Clapton squeezing in Ain't Gone'N Give Up On Your Love, etc., etc.Jimmie apparently said he wanted everyone to play like themselves, and not try andimitate his brother. And it works, in a big, big way. -RR

ne listen to The Rock And A Hard Place, everly released as the first focus track

idundant. Big Con O'Brien has that equally g voice to do justice to Bruce Guthro's lyrics

-Id music. Country programmers should etch into this track. It's a natural end-of-

immer type of song. By the way, that's Kim eschamps of Blue Rodeo on peddle steel

-id Cindy Church with a vocal assist. Also n/ is Uncle Dan and Dirty Old Town. And, a

onderfully-interpreted Ron Hynes ditty led Away. No! The lads haven't forsaken ieir celtic roots. They've mixed in some

iemorable gems like The Irish Rover with le more contemporary Ron Kavanagh's

hamrock City and Lennie Gallant's Days Of living. They've also sneaked in a delightful

istrumental, The Eavesdropper/The onnaughtman's Ramble with no credits.

athy Phippard's keyboard work is xceptional, leading the way for the other

aditional and contemporary instrumental fferings that are so much a part of these

BOOKSBRUCE HARING: OFF THE CHARTSRuthless Days And Reckless NightsInside The Music Industry, 226 pages(hardcover). Birch Lane Press $27.95."...the refinement and precision that haveentered the business have made it mucheasier to sell rebellion, all pre-packagedand ready for home consumption...as aresult, music, the purest form of artisticexpression we have in the mass media, isbeing homogenized in unprecedented waysby corporate culture."If you're one of those who fear that therecord industry is falling into the hands ofthe suits and bean counters, then read on. Ifyou are, in fact, one of those suits, than readno further. Off The Charts is a scathing lookat the modern day record business, and onethat should be required reading for everymajor label exec and aspiring artist. Haringisn't necessarily a great writer. He tends tojuggle about four or five different ideas inthe confines of one sentence, making forsome very tricky reading. But he makes upfor his literary shortcomings with hisextensive research. Haring has intervieweddozens of industry insiders, from all themajor labels, giving a solid air ofauthenticity to this book. The hypothesis ofthe book is clear from the outset: namelythat the streetwise, talent -wise recordcompany veterans from the past have beensuperseded by the new wave of suits andaccountants, largely because of thedominance of the six major multinationals.Haring believes, and he backs it up withnumbers and quotes, that the increasedemphasis on marketing and corporate imagehave plowed under artist development.Everything is based on market share and,of course, hits, hits and more hits. Theprincipal focus of Haring's expose is EMI,particularly the corporate battles that ensuedat the company in the '80s, when the label'smarket share was suffering. He delves intothe world of Charles Koppelman, the currentchairman/CEO of the EMI Records GroupNorth America, a man who helped redefinehow artists are marketed, and oversaw therise and rapid fall of the likes of Arrested

Development, Vanilla Ice and WilsonPhillips. Haring examines the power that isMTV, and how it has changed the way artistsare marketed. He looks at some of thebiggest label takeovers in recent history,including PolyGram's purchase of Islandand EMI's over -priced purchase of Virgin.He exposes the multinationals' unilateraldecision to push through compact discs,killing vinyl to boost their own saggingprofit margins. And finally, he looks at theimplementation of Soundscan and BDS, andhow they have eliminated the old schoolmethod of 'buying' hit records. One

RUTHLESS DAYS ANt RECKLESS Nil

INSIDE THE MUSIC INDUSTRY

interesting aspect of Haring's examinationis his views of alternative music. As hecorrectly points out, the record companieshave bought up the genre lock, stock andbarrel, and have bought out the off-keyrebellion that made alternative so popularin the first place. Instead of signing anddeveloping young alternative acts andsticking with them, the labels now viewalternative acts as they do any other - if theydon't hit big quickly, they're gone. It's oneof Haring's most elemental discoveries, andjust one of the reasons why this book issuperb reading. The suits are running theshop, and whether they like music or not isat this point, a meaningless complication.

Scott and Frank Dycus. Both tracks are included on his album, Somewhere Inside, which Cummings

produced with Joe Ed Barnhill.

Michelle Wright threatens the #1 slot with her latest Arista release, Nobody's Girl. moving up to #2. There's been no denying that Wright

would bounce back into chart prominence with the out -of -the -box send-off the first single from her

new album created with country programmers. The country programmer acceptance of Wright's new

single and the retail action for her CD reflects the

intensity of the well laid -on promotion campaign mounted by BMG to bring Wright back into her rightful position as a major force in Canadian country music. The winner of five Big Country awards as top country female vocalist (1989, 1991,

1992, 1993, 1994), and four CCMA awards in the same category (1990, 1991, 1992, 1993), Wright

is again nominated in this category for this year's CCMA awards. Wright has also been nominated

Daniel Nadasdi has been nominated in the keyboard category; and Lee Warren in the steel guitar category.

BNA's David Chesney has the big gainer of the week with his latest release, Me And You, jumping

on the chart. The focus single is the title track of his album, which was produced by Barry Beckett.

The new single was written by Skip Ewing and Ray Herndon.

Charlie Major has made a huge impact on country programmers with his latest focus track, Waiting

On You. This new release, a Major original, is the most added this week, entering the chart at #77.

Released as a CD single, the track was taken from Major's Arista album, Lucky Man. The album was

produced by Steve Fishell. Major is looking good for this year's CCMA awards, having been

nominated as NCN fan's choice entertainer of the

year; male vocalist, single and SOCAN song for I

Do It For The Money; and album, for Lucky Man. His band has also been nominated for a citation

award in the backup category. And his guitarist Jason Barry has been nominated in the guitar

category.

Jason McCoy bounces back into the Top 5 with his MCA release, All The Way, showing a

resurrengence. This extra spurt of activity is due his extensive tour across the country and his giving of free time to country programmers in the large,

medium and smaller markets. McCoy, who won a Big Country award this year as male vocalist, has

been nominated in this year's CCMA awards as male vocalist and in the Vista (Rising Star)

category.

Billy Ray Cyrus goes western swing with his new release, Trail Of Tears. The brunt of a lot of cruel

jokes by many of his peers, obviously envious over the success of his Achy Breaky Heart single, which

topped the RPM Country 100 (June 27/92) and the phenomenal sales of his album, Some Give All,

Cyrus isn't about to lay down. He's touring and renewing his connections at country radio. And

Trail Of Tears, a Cyrus original, could bring him back into prominence. The new release is the title track of his upcoming Mercury CD, which was

produced by Cyrus and Terry Shelton.
