U.K. blank tape levy raises hope in CanadaThe announcement that the British Govern-ment will soon introduce legislation pro-viding a levy on blank audio cassettes hasstrengthened hopes among Canadian recor-ding industry observers that similar legisla-tion will be enacted here. There is already arecommendation in the Copyright whitepaper asking for a "royalty" on blank tape -a firm recommendation that is expected tobecome law shortly.
Brian Robertson, President of the Cana-dian Recording Industry Association (CRIA)believes that the U.K. legislation is going tohelp their case, by reinforcing the Ottawapeople's confidence that they're doing theright thing with regard to a levy on blankaudio tape. Robertson believes that this

Revenue increasereported by PROCANThe Performing Rights Organization ofCanada (PROCAN) has reported an increasein revenue of 3.7 percent to $22.1 million forthe year 1985. Included in this figure was $1.8million from foreign sources for perfor-mances of Cancon music abroad.
PROCAN President Jan Matejcek notedthat "The small increase in revenue (10 per-cent over last year), reflects the reductions intariff areas arising from decisions by theCopyright Appeal Board last year."
Matejcek also credited stepped -up licens-ing activities by the company as a major fac-tor for the increase. "The federally appointedCopyright Appeal Board sets the licence feeswe collect," Matejcek continues. "and lastyear the fees for private TV broadcasterswere frozen at the 1984 level. A reduction inthe live pop -concert tariff was also felt."Nancy Gyokeres, Editor of PROCAN'sMusic Scene, reports an all-time high in thenumber of music creators and publishers nowrepresented by PROCAN. With 1,420 com-posers and lyricists and 166 music publishersaffiliating last year, the organization now col-lects licence fees from users on behalf of over19,000 Canadian composers, lyricists, andmusic publishers.
legislation will go through in Canada."The only question is," queries Robert-
son, "in what form? What we're trying toavoid is the taxation issue, because if it's atax, the monies are just recycled into theTreasury. We're looking for a royalty thatwould be clearly returned to the creator."
Robertson also points out that if thegovernment does pass legislation on blanktape, this would in effect, legalize home tap-ing.
"Once they legalize home taping, you
have to be sure you're getting adequate com-pensation, because you're losing that wholeissue of illegal use," Robertson explains."We're trying to make certain that whatevercompensation they come through with, that itbe substantial. Even the 10 percent retailthey've got in the U.K. is, in my view,modest."
CRIA's research shows that for everypre-recorded cassette sold, there is one that istaped. "They're selling as many blank tapesas they are pre-recorded tapes," says Robert-son "a one -for -one loss - and 10 percent ofthat is almost no compensation at all."
Pepsi Cola launches Cancon music pollPepsi -Cola Canada has undertaken totabulate "the musical opinions of Canadiansacross the country." The 8 -week consumerpoll will run until the end of June and is ex-pected to be the largest poll of musicalchoices ever conducted in North America.

posed to be the bad boys in the music business, but as far as I'm concerned, all of
that is a misconception." He goes on to ex- plain. "It doesn't really matter what people think about us - what is important is making

Ronnie James Dio says, "The idea was to take all that's been done before and take it
one step further." Sony also reports that "following the enormous success of John Lennon: Live In
New York City," they will release the video, Imagine, in May.
At the same time, Capitol Records will re -issue the Imagine album, digitally re - mastered on LP, cassette and CD.
The 60 minute video -LP features footage of Lennon and Yoko Ono, filmed in London,

twice: shown in part on television in 1972 and when presented to the Whitney Museum, in New York in 1977. In addition to the 10
tracks from the Imagine album, the video also includes 2 tracks from Ono's Fly LP: Mrs. Lennon and Don't Count The Waves.

Scott's music lampoons Rainbow War film
An interesting story from Vancouver revolves around the release of My Rainbowar, by The
Rick Scott Band. The song is about the mak- ing of the Rainbow War film, which was
nominated for an Academy Award as Best Live Action Short.
Scott, along with several other B.C. ac- tors, was a "special skills actor" for the film.
He apparently took the part as a favour to his friend Bob Rogers, the film's producer/direc-
tor and regarded as "one of the world's leading industrial short film makers." Scott figured this might be his big chance at movie
stardom, and wasn't quite prepared to discover that his job included dressing up in a
yellow rubber suit and having gallons of paint thrown at him. Says Scott, "My Rainbowar
is the true first person account of this epic drama."
Rogers has apparently denied being angry about the song. "It's completely
justified," he said. "We put those people through a nut house. They were great sports
and enthusiastic collaborators. They deserve a song about what they went through."
Rogers continues with "Rick (Scott) is a tremendous talent and became a good friend
when we met during the casting of Rainbow War. I felt terrible. But there wasn't a part in
the show for him even though I really wanted to include him. Out of friendship, he
volunteered to be an extra, 'just for fun', he said. I warned him it would be hard work
- that it wasn't all sunglasses and autographs.
He was a trouper. He put up with a lot. Now the song is his turn to have a little fun at my
expense." He concludes with "Honestly, we were flattered and delighted to learn that one
of Canada's top actor/singer/songwriters would create a song for us."
Rogers produced Rainbow War for the CP Pavilion at Expo '86 as well as Our B.C. for the B.C. Pavilion. The soundtrack of Our
B.C. will be released in May as one side of a compilation album of the same title. The flip
will be made up of tracks from name B.C. recording acts including Ann Mortifee, Bill
Henderson (whose daughter Saffron starred in Rainbow War), The Irish Rovers and
Valdy. My Rainbowar, which was produced by Harris Van Berkel and Valley Hennell
King at Vancouver's Little Mountain Sound, will be The Rick Scott Band's contribution to this album.
Besides Scott, The Rick Scott Band com- prises Harris Van Berkel, Andy Graffiti and
Connie Lebeau.

How's business . . . ??Depends on who you ask, of course, but eventhe retailer whose lying through his teeth, hasto admit that "April was a little slow." (EC:A little slow . . . ? That's anunderstatement!!) But have heart, the sunmonths are almost here, and the majors pro-mise they'll have lots of super product to br-ing the customers back into the stores. Forthe time being however, the retailers will haveto use their own ingenuity and really get theirshoulders under in-store promotions.
This summer should be fun!!Not all of us can be in Vancouver for Expo'86, but Ontario Place, Kingswood Theatre(Canada's Wonderland), and the CNEStadium should supply enough entertainmentfor the Toronto area - and then some. I had asneak preview of Kingswood the other, bitter-ly cold night - and even took a ride on theirbrand spanking new Cancon thriller,Thunder Run. The lineup of talent for the bigpark is beginning to look pretty impressive.Ontario Place gives us a look-see at what toexpect from them - and again, the weatherisn't cooperating too well. What I like aboutOntario Place is the reasonable ticket prices,which I hope they maintain for another cou-ple of seasons.

Have we got hits . . . !!We're starting off the spring season, if it evergets here, with a hefty load of Canconreleases, a couple of which are already hitsout of the box, and charted on the RPM 100.One of the most significant of these releases isLuba's How Many (Rivers To Cross), whichis the highest scoring single this week, accor-ding to Peter Martin (RPM chart compiler)and enters the chart with a bullet at No. 72.Also very hot and moving. quickly up thechart are Glass Tiger's Thin Red Line,Platinum Blonde's Hungry Eyes, ErrollStarr's The Key, M2M's Song In My Head,and Lies Are Gonna Get Ya by Cats Can Fly.Ready to move is the latest from Loverboy,Lead A Double Life, and don't overlookRomantic Complications by Michel Lemieux.The latter could be a left -fielder, he certainlydrew rave reviews when he appeared inToronto recently. I don't think I've ever seensuch an impressive lineup of Cancon in all theyears of publishing RPM.
It's time to pick on Cancon!!After writing about so many great Canconreleases on the market - it was brought to myattention that music critics (EC: I'm sure youuse that description . . . loosely!!) across the
country, particularly those with dailies, havebeen using the "poison pen" approach whenit comes to reviewing Canadian acts. There isone consolation however, and that is, at leastthey're reviewing these acts and records.

Those 3 units are RCA Records -U.S., which will be expanded to encompass anew national and regional sales team ex-clusive to the label; RCA/Ariola Records -International, covering the company'soverseas operations, and which will now in-clude Canada; and the newly formedRCA/A&M and Associated Labels, Aristasales force, and RCA/Ariola domesticdistribution operations.

Goldman pointed out that "The primaryobjective in this restructuring is to set up eachof the 5 major areas of operation of the com-pany as a separate profit centre, and as anorganization in which the presidents of thoseunits can deal on an entrepreneurial and in-dependent basis to achieve a variety ofdiverse strategic goals. They will be free torespond to the competitive environment in anindustry that is becoming ever more complexand where the pace of change continues to ac-celerate."

Mannheim Steamroller Saving The WildlifeThe plight of the world's wildlife has been,for the most part, ignored by the powerfulfund-raising machine of recording artists.They have displayed this power through theirefforts in raising millions of dollars for thestarving in Africa, a country that is also beingthreatened with the loss of their wildlife.
Mannheim Steamroller, an AmericanGramaphone recording group, has recogniz-ed, not only the dwindling population ofwildlife in Africa, but the world situation aswell. In conjunction with PBS, they recordedthe soundtrack for a 2 -hr TV documentary,titled Saving The Wildlife. The special focus-ed on efforts by naturalists, wildlife filmmakers and celebrities to protect more than adozen endangered species depicted in the
Rudolph Serkin is namedArtist Laureate - CBSCBS Masterworks has named Rudolf Serkinas the label's second Artist Laureate "inrecognition of an historic recording relation-ship that spans over four decades." The Ar-tist Laureate medallion was presented toSerkin by Joseph F. Dash, Senior Vice Presi-dent and General Manager of CBS Master-works, after the former's Golden Jubilee con-cert with the New York Philharmonic. Theinscription on the medallion reads, "Youreloquence glows in the music you make; yourgenerosity and caring nature have helped toshape the art of your students; and yourhumanity, and dignity are an inspiration to usall."
The first recording to bear the Serkin Ar-tist Laureate logo will be released this year.The repertory is: Max Reger's Variation andFugue on a Theme of Johann Sebastian Bachfor Piano, Op. 81, and the Haydn Sonata inC Major.
Serkin's first album for CBS Master-works, Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata, wasproduced in September of 1941. Since thatrelease, he has recorded over 80 albums forthe label, including the only recording withhis son Peter Serkin of the Mozart ConcertoNo. 10 for Two Pianos.

film. The band's drummer Chip Davis com-posed all the material and produced thesoundtrack at Sound Recorders in Omaha,Nebraska. The tracks are simply titled Rhinosand Elephants, Dolphins and Whales,Wolfgang Amadeus Penguin, Wolves, Grizz-ly Bears, Eagles, Harp Seals, Amanda Pan-da, Tigers and Lions, Tamarin Monkeys, andFlorida Suite: Barbeque, Everglades, Sunset.
The cover photo on the gatefold jacket iscompelling in itself - a shot of a full-growntiger and a cub with the notation that therewere 8 races of tigers and that 3 are alreadyextinct. Full colour shots of many of thenear -extinct species of animals are shown inthe inner gatefold.
Besides Davis, Mannheim Steamrollercomprise Jackson Berkey (keyboards), JoeyGulizia (ethnic percussion), Ron Agnew(guitar), and Ric Swanson (percussion).
It should be noted that this soundtrackfollows the second successful season for theband's Christmas album, which wasnominated for a Grammy.
Saving The Wildlife follows the Man-nheim Steamroller format by "combiningclassical forms with contemporary rhythmsand instrumentation to create a lush or-chestral sound." Davis has incorporated ac-tual sounds of wild animals to give the sound-track documentary appeal.

COVER STORY
Pet Shop Boys - the perfect discoThe Pet Shop Boys are a U.K. duo consistingof Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe. Prior toreleasing their Please LP, they were forced in-to a musical limbo through contractual pro-blems with previous producer Bobby 0.
"The new versions are much stronger,"says Lowe, the man who provides the"noise" for the Capitol act, while explainingwhy they decided to have their 2 previouslyreleased singles remixed.
"The first singles stopped and started,"Lowe explains, unaware that both thesesingles had received considerable airplay inCanada. "I think they were only played 3times in England. I didn't realize we werequite that popular here."
Lead vocalist Tennant was asked ifwhile he was a staff writer for U.K.'s SmashHits magazine, had he learned how to pro-duce a 'smash' hit. "We set out to make adisco record long before I was asked towrite," he answered, continuing with "If youare making records, which you think aregood, and I think West End Girls is absolute-ly brilliant, there comes a point where youwould just like your record to be successfuland that's what we decided.
"There was a point where we had todecide if we were going to do this as a kind offrustrated hobby, or push it a bit harder.Well, we pushed."
The fruits of their labour has resulted inPlease, their debut album which has gonegold and is now in the Top 20 of the RPM100. The subsequent airplay and club actionfor their single, West End Girls, has con-tributed to their album garnering Hot Albumstatus on the front page of RPM for the past2 weeks.
When discussing musical styles andtrends, and how the band found themselvesin the same category as Duran Duran andWHAM, Tennant points out, "You can't

Pet Shop Boys - the perfect disco record??
The Pet Shop Boys are a U.K. duo consisting of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe. Prior to
releasing their Please LP, they were forced in-
to a musical limbo through contractual pro- blems with previous producer Bobby 0.
"The new versions are much stronger," says Lowe, the man who provides the
"noise" for the Capitol act, while explaining why they decided to have their 2 previously
released singles remixed. "The first singles stopped and started,"
Lowe explains, unaware that both these singles had received considerable airplay in
Canada. "I think they were only played 3
times in England. I didn't realize we were quite that popular here."
Lead vocalist Tennant was asked if while he was a staff writer for U.K.'s Smash Hits magazine, had he learned how to pro- duce a 'smash' hit. "We set out to make a disco record long before I was asked to

"Peter is currently rebuilding his career, and although there is a possibility of a solo tour in

Fortunately, Kingswood has been able to firm a second show for U.K.'s Depeche
Mode. The band, promoting their latest release Black Celebration, are now slated to
perform June 18 & 20. Andy Fletcher of Depeche Mode says
"The band didn't want to perform for 3 con- secutive dates," and therefore ruled out an

really lump us in with Duran Duran, because
we didn't set out to do glamorous videos. We're not a glamorous band."
To which Lowe adds, "It's best not to speak in terms of categorizations in music.
All you can do is judge each record on its own merit." Tennant interjects, "There is no
delineation factor - there's Top 40 and there's
alternative radio. When we started out, we couldn't get played on alternate radio because they said we were too commercial,
and Top 40 said we were too obscure. "But we finally broke through with West
End Girls at the clubs. When we set out to make this perfect disco record
- we knew we were going to get a lot of disco play anyway."

Tennant isn't too taken with the cross- over attempts by some artists. "I don't like
white groups who want to sound' oh -so - soulful'. They think this means they have
some sort of purity, which makes them better than any other artists. They have this very
academic, very dry approach to making music." He goes on to explain, "I like music that
emphasizes the differences between people and their individual characteristics
- and I
think the music business today is geared for them to make the most out of these songs.
"When we make records, we set out to make records that sound like us - not to sound like Tina Turner or Depeche Mode or
whatever. We want our music to sound like us," concluding with "We never thought we were ever going down the road of success
really - apart from the fact that I thought we were good."
It's that time of year again /!!
by Randy Wells, National Promotion Manager,
A&M Records Canada
It's that time of year again. The tours and
new releases are coming fast and furious. The Arrows start on
a Western tour con- sisting of 18 dates
from Thunder Bay to B.C. The timing
couldn't be better in support of their new single, Chains.
Radio acceptance of the single is super,
with over 90 percent of the major CHR's
already accounted for. At this stage of the game it's imperative the band be seen by the public and media to
expand on the already strong base. Simple Minds are also a band to be
reckoned with, both on the airwaves and on tour. The single, All The Things She Said, is
wasting no time pulling adds at CHR and AOR. The band on the road will definitely
aid in our quest for quick conversions (chart numbers). The first 2 stations to chart are
CKOC (No. 40), And CKOI (No. 39).
I must say I'm breathing a sigh of relief
over Janet Jackson's What Have You Done For Me Lately. After a lot of headaches and;
hard work, we're seeing some excellent results in terms of adds and chart numbers
from coast to coast. Just to confirm that Janet's happening (was there any doubt), ma-
jor single distributors across Canada are reporting sales and have seen fit to go to
chart. To expand on that, check out some of the radio action CKOI (No. 27 to 18), CFTR
(No 36 debut), CKOC (No. 29 debut), CHED (No. 26), CKXL (No. 17), CHUM (No. 28
debut), and CKLC (No. 26). In closing the subject of Janet, I would just like to say to all
those stations not yet on the single -
duty calls.!
As far as Culture Club is concerned, I've one thing to say to radio
- thank you for the
support. The single, Move Away, and album, From Luxury To Heartache, are doing great.
Randy Wells
Other product doing exceptionally well for us consist of: OMD's If You Leave
(rapidly closing in on gold); Feargal Sharkey's A Good Heart (LP and single, now
gold), Falco's Vienna Calling (LP platinum), and Katrina And The Waves' Is That It (Gold
album). In our priorities of new singles, Erroll Starr's The Key is high on the list with the
first few weeks garnering tremendous radio response from the likes of CJCH, OZ, CKOI, CFGO, CHUM, CFTR, CHUM -FM, CKLC, CHED, and CKLG to name a few. Our goals
are set very high for this single, and as you can see, radio has been quite accom-
modating.
38 Special's Like No Other Night, and Pretty In Pink by The Psychedelic Furs also
fare high on the priority list.38 Special has a track record of airplay and sales. The last
album release did go ver gold, not to mention CHR and AOR support with numbers. On
release of the new single in the U.S., here's the story: Number One most added at CHR
and Number Two most added at AOR. Here in Canada, we are committed to bringing 38
Special home. Early believers are Q104, KX96, CJAY, KIK, and CFOX.
The Fur's Pretty In Pink single is the se- cond single from the gold plus soundtrack
(PIP). At the moment there is a lot of momentum with the movie, the single
(OMD), and the album all doing extremely well. At AOR the album is charted from coast to coast but we still have our work cut
out for us to secure The Furs. As the second track, our next step is obviously the CHR's
Last but not least, is Joe Jackson. The single, Right And Wrong, is receiving AOR
support out of the box, which is spurring on healthy sales resulting in some nice chart
numbers (CFOX-20, CFMI-5, CJAY-27,
KIK-17, CITI-15, CHUM -FM -22, Q107-20, CHEX-24, CHOM-15, Q104-15, and OZ -28).
At CHR look out for Joe Jackson, he's back- and in fine form.
On a parting note, 3 new singles to watch
are Atlantic Starr's If Your Heart Isn't In It, Feargal Sharkey's You Little Thief, and Jef-
frey Osbourne's You Should Be Mine.

Blackie Lawless counters a "useless" PMRCThe efforts of the Parent's Music ResourceCenter (PMRC) have been well documented,and one of the groups they singled out in theirrelentless attacks were Capitol's W.A.S.P.
However, W.A.S.P. bassist BlackieLawless says he's "still looking around, try-ing to figure out what their whole point was.They made a big noise and then all of a sud-den went away."
He continues with "The main thing is

they've gone, and we're still here - but if Idon't stick to my guns, then I may as well gotoo."
Lawless and W.A.S.P. supported theirfirst album with a tour that raised quite a few
eyebrows. Their stage performance includeddrinking blood and simulating the torture ofa young lady. Yet these antics have beendiscontinued on their current tour.
"We've done a whole North Americantour without them and our fans are pissedoff. But we don't care," he explains. "Wewere just tired of doing it. This tour is dif-ferent and every year we tour, the show willbe different. The band doesn't back downfrom nothin."
He further points up that "if anything,the biggest problem I had, when this parent'sgroup surfaced, was trying to maintain mycool and not overdo it. My first reaction wasto really get leftfield, but that would have

In 1964, RPM was the first Canadian trade paper, designed specifically, to report on the Canadian music industry. We have been here each week for 22 years.
RPM was the first to compile a national listing of 100 singles and albums. We were the first to show
record numbers and distributor codes. RPM was first when we began our music poll in 1964. We asked the
industry who the top people were and made them known to the trade, at home and abroad. We were
also the first, when we introduced the Gold Leaf Awards
- which allowed record companies to certify
their outstanding record sellers with uniform figures.
kvi the pust It was in 1971 when we created the Juno Awards, a
yearly gathering of record people to honour the finest their industry could offer.
RPM was the first in designing and making available
to the industry -
the MAPL system for identifying Canadian content.
We published the first Canadian Music Industry Directory in 1965.
We were the first to coin the expression Cancon,
now internationally accepted as identifying Canadian content product.
RPM was the first to instigate a series of Communication Meetings which gave the industry
an opportunity to look at itself. The industry found both negatives and positives, and some solutions but, above all, a common ground to air their views.
We were the first to report the fact.
RPM was the first to bring national recognition to the Canadian country music industry, staging the
first Big Country Conference in 1973.
With our pulse on the industry, we will also be the first to come up with other imaginative and
progressive ideas. We have several projects presently in the planning stages which we believe will add
prestige to the Canadian industry.
The next time you are talking about RPM -
think of
us as RPM .... the first.

An alarming decrease of radio news jobs in '85by George Pollard,George Pollard a broadcast consultant, based in Ottawa, has become increasingly aware of achange in the news departments of radio stations, particularly the small markets. He points upthese changes in the article that follows.
The number of radio news positions inCanada decreased by 4 percent in 1985. Basedon a census of the December 1984 and 1985Matthews Lists 86 of the 2144 full-time non-management radio news (and sports) jobsthat existed in 1984 were eliminated during1985. In markets of less than 60,000, 8 per-cent of the radio news jobs, 64 jobs in all,were eliminated. That's twice the nationalfigure, accounting for 3/4 of the totalshrinkage.
Sources believe attrition was the prin-cipal method. Vacated positions weren't fill-ed. About half of all 2 and 3 person radionewsrooms became one and 2 personnewsrooms during 1985.
One station manager said, "Eliminationof a news position or 2 was part of overallcost-cutting." About half the stations insmaller markets reported a loss in 1984. "Itwasn't," he added, "an attempt to reduce theproblems sometimes associated with news -sales -advertiser conflicts."
Observing the positions "weren'tnecessarily eliminated, just unfilled," a cynicsuggested some licensees "smelled the de-regulatory rat and were getting a. head start.
"If the CRTC decides to de-emphasizecommunity service," he surmised, "then firstcuts are made in news . . . (who needs) jour-nalists when you have an announce staff andaffordable wire and voicer services. If andwhen the Commission goes in another direc-tion, the positions can be filled . . . maybe."
Professor Joe Scanlon, of the School ofJournalism at Carleton University (Ottawa),links the decrease in radio journalists to thenew satellite news services which can delivermajor market quality newscasts 24 hours aday, 7 days a week, 365 days a year for lessthan it costs to hire a reporter, let alone staffa newsroom.

newsrooms, especially in smaller radiomarkets, has far-reaching implications forthe quality of the radio news work force - thequality of the radio news product and the in-tegrity of broadcast policy.
Many entry level news jobs are gone,possibly forever. This affects all aspiringjournalists, but women will be most pro-foundly affected. Recent research has revaledthat women are under -represented in all nesmedia and all news media jobs except for en-try level radio positions. A reduction in entrylevel positions thus threatens the femalepresence in radio news.
An incease in one and 2 personnewsrooms undermine continuity. Newemployees will have difficulty establishingthemselves in the newsr000m, station andcommunity; they will have to learn -the -ropesthe hard way. Bereft of an experienced co-worker, each recruit will make the samemistakes as the last and the next.
Learning from experienced co-workersand building on that experience is a basic in-gredient of every journalist's career.Newswork is a skill acquired through prac-tice. The leadership and guidance providedby experienced co-workers, albeit informaland subtle, is crucial. Impeding this `para-apprenticeship' system undermines the quali-ty of the news media workforce and the newsproduct.
Given ideal conditions, the demands of asmall radio newsroom impedes the learningprocess. Reducing newsroom personneldisables the process of becoming a compe-tent, skilled radio journalist.
These results emanate from specific deci-sions made by licensees and management,decisions they have the right to make. It isprobably immaterial that the decisionsadversely affect aspiring journalists, thequality of the radio news work force, and

ultimately, the news audience. What seemsimportant is efficiency in achieving short -rungoals.
This posture overlooks the contem-porary role of radio news and the significanceof long -run goals (i.e. survival). Researchdemonstrates that listeners perceive radionews as the primary conduit to localk issues,events and personalities. This perception isstrongest in smaller markets. where there isno daily newspaper or local television station.
Essentially, radio news has replaced thebanner headline and special edition of thelocal daily newspaper. Furthermore, it in-tegrates listeners into their community. Onthe hour or 1/2 hour, radio tells them whatthey need, want and should know about thecommunity. And, it helps them understandtheir community's niche in the largerregional, provincial, national and interna-tional context. Relating non -local events tocommunity -interests is an important part ofradio news.
It's not surprising, then, that in smallermarkets local news is the principal reason forlistening to local radio. Local news is thecompetitive edge, local radio's raison d'etre.When the quality or quantity of local newsdecreases, so does tuning.
A decrease in news personnel necessarilymeans a decrease in local news. This leads, inturn, to an increased reliance on a news ser-vice. To satisfy stations from Nanaimo toWabush, the news service product isnecessarily homogenized. It has little ifanything, in the way of local news to offermost of the 450 plus communities that rely onlocal radio stations. When there's a reductionin news personnel and news services are usedto fill the void, the local station's competitiveedge is blunted.
The tendency to smaller newsroom andthe concomitant decline in local news servicemay have implications for the integrity ofbroadcast policy.

Another key track, Electric-ity, was penned by Nona Hendryx and Dan Ha-rtman. Netwon-Davis co -wrote I Jus Wanna NoU with Bendeth and Lou Pomanti. The latteralso provides various bass and keyboard tracks.Recorded at the Phase One Studios in Toronto.Qualifies 4 Cancon (MAPL).

Music & Artists Agency celebrates 20th year
Maureen Enright, the new President of MusicAnd Artists Agency, is in the midst ofcelebrating 20 years in the entertainmentbusiness.
Founded in 1966 by the late Bert Mit-ford, Music And Artists Agency centers itsactivities on bookings, using a wide selection

of talent, including big name orchestras,classical, country, rock, pop and rock 'n' rollgroups.
Variety shows and children's programsare also produced for Exhibitions, Fairs,Conventions, Trade Fairs, and many more.Over the years, many shows have been pro-duced for Centennials, Bi-Centennials, An-niversaries etc.
"The business has changed over theyears since Bert first opened the Agency in1966," says Enright. "When I went to workfor the Agency in 1971 (becoming Vice Presi-
Duce & Hoople singlesreleased by AxeReleased this past week from the Toronto -based Axe label are 2 singles from Canadianrecording veterans, Hooples and Duce.
Duce is actually Gary Dussiaume. Hissingle, Frozen Moments, is taken from hislatest album and was co -written byDussiaume with producer Declan O'Dohertyassisting.
Hooples, who record on their own Ma-jor Records label, have released Love On TheRun from their album, The New AdventuresOf Hooples.
Other singles currently experiencing pro-grammer action include All The Words byHeadlines, and Larry Folk's Calling MeBack. Interestingly enough, both these trackshave caught the ears of the Music Programm-ing group located in Maine.
dent in 1973), we used to do a lot of road pro-motions and had exclusive representation,but now the business is highly competitiveand is mostly free-lance."
Music And Artists Agency has enjoyed ahigh profile within the industry and amongpromoters over the past 20 years as a result ofits close association with top entertainmentand recording artists. These include GeorgeHamilton IV, The Mercey Brothers, CarrollBaker, The Family Brown, Tommy Hunter,Ronnie Prophet, Ian And Sylvia, DickDamron, Carlton Showband, and The GoodBrothers to name just a few.
As Enright reflects on 20 years of pro-viding the country with top recording artistsin concert, as well as lesser known acts for thepublic's enjoyment, she still finds it "an ex-citing experience, and I enjoy working withthe artists and the promoter in all phases ofputting a promotion together."
While Enright carries on in the finetradition of excellence established by BertMitford in handling mostly name talent, shealso takes the time to give more attention tonew artists and groups - and works hard tofind placement in a vibrant industry.
Says Enright, "In this our 20th year,Music And Artists Agency welcomes old andnew patrons - and although the anniversary isalmost silver - the service is pure gold."

New Winwood LP produced by Titelman
Veteran producer Russ Titelman reports that Steve Winwood's new album will be "dif- ferent sounding, in that we have outside
musicians, different influences and different people to play off. It's a very R&B flavoured
record." The album will be released on the Island label worldwide with the exception of

produced such artists as James Taylor, George Harrison, Gordon Lightfoot and Chaka Khan, recently completed the mixing

recalls "It was one of the first digital albums recorded. Gordon is such a professional, a

we achieved," explains Titelman. "We wanted to get Steve out of his house and
come to New York and get other musicians playing with him to provide outside in-
fluences." Although Arc Of A Diver, and Talking
Back To The Night, Winwood's 2 previous albums, recorded in his own U.K. studio, and
on which he plays all musical instruments, sold over platinum, his most respected and
influential recordings were with the groups Spencer Davis, Traffic, and Blind Faith.
Musicians employed during the sessions which began last August include drummers Steve Ferrone, John Robinson and Mickey
Curry, keyboardist Robby Kilgore and guest
West Coast's Paul Horn to tour Russia
Recording on his own Golden Flute label distributed in Canada by Attic, Paul Horn
and his 4 -piece band will play 20 dates in Russia from May 7 through June 5. On his return he will play the B.C. Pavillion at Ex-
po '86 (Aug. 4 to 7) An American by birth but now a Cana -
damn landed immigrant, currently living in Victoria, Horn stresses his trip to Russia is
"commercial," he will not be visiting as an emmissary. When Horn last went on tour to Russia
he recorded his Inside Russia LP but has no plans to do so this time, although, he adds
"they'll be taping the performance and I might bring home the masters."
Known for his fusion style of jazz, he believes that music connects "all people on
this planet." For this reason, his travels are extensive. "When they (the Russians) open up
to a western concept like jazz or rock, then maybe it signifies a real change taking place, I
hope so anyway."

vocalists Chaka Khan, James Taylor and Dan Hartman. Titelman also reveals additional
guitar tracks were provided by Joe Walsh and Nile Rodgers. The former has been credited with co -writing some of the material.
Titelman points out that he is no stranger to Winwood's work habits, having
produced the George Harrison and Christine McVie's self -titled albums, on which Win
- wood made appearances. "We had a good
working relationship on those records," says Titelman, "and this record grew out of those
past relationships." There are 8 tracks on Back In The Highlight. "The tracks are a little long," ad-
mits Titelman, but they don't feel long." He attributes this to the album's "different
flavour - this different feel. It's an extension of the classic Winwood sound." He con-
tinues with "There's no way to get away from it. But it is a very desirable one. So we just
added to it." Titelman recalls that when Winwood ar-
rived at the studio with his songs, "there was one that was actually hiding, and it turned out to be the title track. Steve had written it and forgotten about it. He played it for me in the studio one day and I thought it was great. He worked up a new arrangement, and as I
said -
it's now the title track."
POLLA RD continued from page 12
and provides a reasonable, balanced oppur- tunity for the expression of differing views on
matters of public concern. This will, it's believed, safeguard, enrich and strengthen
the cultural, political, social and economic fabric of Canada.
When a decrease of news personnel means a decrease in local news, it detracts
from the Act. If Canada was monolithic, the news service view would satisfy the Act, the needs of most stations and the audience for radio news. Canada, however, is a mosaic with inlays of varying shapes, colours and
textures. It's a helix of linguistic, political, economic, social, class and cultural com- munities. Radio, especially local radio news,
plays a crucial role in the shaping and main- taining of each community's identity.
This is not to suggest licensees should have to maintain a certain size news staff. They have a fundamental right to make staff-
ing decisions, unless those decisions under- mine service. If it can be demonstrated that
service is unaffected by cut -backs, there's no problem. Otherwise, the cut -backs are
legitimately subject to regulatory review. Understanding why there was a 4 percent
decline in radio news positions during 1985 is thus essential. If service is, in any way, af-
fected by cut -backs, some licensees may be violating their covenant with the Canadian
people. Needless to say, it is incumbent on the
CRTC to consider the affects of this trend on level of service, female presence and how news audiences see the world and define their place in it. Whether the CRTC will ,is
another matter. Given its current quest for ir- responsibility and industry chaos (CRTC
Public Notice 1986-66, aka "pass -the -buck de -regulation proposals"), it is doubtful the
problem will be recognized let alone con- sidered.

New- single from Pat Blyth Pat Blyth is back in the running for chart ac- tion with his latest Downs single, (Another)
Once In A Lifetime Chance. The plug side was co -written by Blyth and Frank Stirk and
produced by Larry Campbell at Winnipeg's Mid -Ocean Studio. The flip is an instrumen-
tal of the plug side. This single follows Pat's 1985 release of Not Enough You. Musicians
on the session were keyboardist Daryl Havers, guitarist Steve Bell, steelman Art
Alyea, bassist Randy Booth, and drummer Gord Metcalfe. Background vocals were sup- plied by Blyth, Rhonda Hart, and Donna
Henry.
Bill Johnson & CHOO part It came as a shock to learn that after 12 years of being the anchor personality at CHOO
Radio Ajax, Ont. Bill Johnson and the sta- tion have agreed to disagree. Bill's last on -air stint was as drive home personality. There have been quite a few job offers for Bill, but
he would like to "hang -in" around his Port Perry home, and of course he will be kept busy on the tour circuit with his Sweet Coun-
try band. It's interesting to note that one member of his band is June Eikhard, a cham-
pion fiddle player, and mother of Shirley. Bill is also no stranger to the recording field, hav-
ing released a single, I Need You Much More Than You Need Me. Bill can be contacted at
416-985-8376.

Good news/bad news for DamronDick Damron, who is halfway through hisannual Mystery Tour of Europe and on hisway to Holland, received news that someonebroke into his home, which is about 10 milesfrom Bentley, Alberta, and created havoc.Whoever broke into his home, stoleeverything that wasn't nailed down, includinghis stereo - musical equalizer, TV and VCR,his telephone answering machine, typewriterand more. To add to this viciousness, thethieves put one of Dick's classic guitars ontop of the oil furnace and turned the furnaceon full blast. Luckily the fire was discoveredbefore too much damage was done. The goodnews is that Dick has once again beenhonoured by the Country Gazette Poll '86, asthe Top Country Act - Outside the U.S.Country Gazette is Holland's largest countryand bluegrass music magazine.

As well as Haywire, Katrina & The Waves, another Attic entry, have made very
good inroads with their single, Is That It. Simple Minds, of course, would appear to
have a chart shoo-in with their single, All The Things.

CJCL's Jim Kidd I l 1 di DA nets Rich and Durant
Since PD Jim Kidd joined Toronto's CJCL 2
years ago, one of his goals was to bring with him, from competitor CKEY, morning man
Keith Rich. After a year of negotiations, Kidd has announced that Rich will join CJCL
"sometime in July or August." "Yes," agrees Kidd, "getting our morn-
ing show competitive was a priority." Kidd expects that during this year, the station will achieve "full service status", and he adds,
"This will be our first year of profitability." Kidd concludes with, "By combining the
best morning show with the best news team and, of course, with baseball in the evenings,
CJCL will be the first choice for Toronto's adult listeners."
