EC States Come

To Grips OverMusic Quotas

On RadioEUROPEby Jeff Clark -meads

In the European Union, it isactively illegal to impede themovement of goods and servicesacross national borders. Any-body choosing to reduce the lib-erty of the free market in any-thing from steel to schnappscould have to pay for such inter-ference with a fine or evenimprisonment. Unless, ofcourse, the commodity in ques-tion is the raw material for radioprogramming.

In France-the country thatover the last 40 years has sound-ed the loudest calls for a singleand open Europeanmarket-legislation that willintroduce minimum quotas ofFrench music on radio is alreadyin place. Plans for its implemen-tation at the beginning of 1996are now moving ahead, despitethe protests of the broadcastersand their threats of legal action.

But, even the anguished criesof the broadcasters has notstamped out enthusiasm for thequotas concept in other EUcountries, too. In every conti-nental European nation, thereare complaints from recordcompanies that domestic artistsdo not get enough radio expo-sure-arguments to which cul-ture ministries are sensitive toone degree or another.

In addition, associate EUmember Poland has introducedlegislation to enforce quotas

Playlist Committee UpsNew Talent On Radio 1UNITED KINGDOMby Jeff Clark -Meads

Producers at BBC Radio 1 FMlose an element of creative free-dom this week as the station aimsfor a more consistent identity. Themanagement is seeking to keep allproducers marching to the samebeat by handing increased powerover to the central playlist commit-tee.

From April 11, 67% of allrecords broadcast during the 10

daytime shows will be decided bythe playlist committee, represent-ing an increase of more than one -quarter. The station is also aug-menting its current A and B listsby introducing a heavy -rotationpremier list for the biggest artists,

and is replacing its C list with an Nlist showcase for new talent.

A spokesman for the stationsays, though, that the new systemwill not mean less opportunity foremerging acts. Indeed, he says ofthe N list, "If a record is on theplaylist, it means it will get 10 playsa week instead of the six plays as itwould have done on the C list."

The N list will consist of 10tracks which will each remain onthe list for four weeks. The stationsays this will mean that airtime fornew talent will rise from 24% to31%. To accommodate this, theamount of gold songs being broad-cast will be reduced from 38% to30%.

The station concedes that thenew system concentrates power to a

DINA CARROLL VISITS POLYGRAM IRELAND - Dina Carroll visited PolyGramIreland MD Paul Keogh during her recent trip to Ireland, where she was present-ed with a double platinum disc for sales of "So Close," which achieved doubleplatinum sales in the country. Carroll was in Ireland for the Irish Music Awards,where she won Best International Newcomer award.

greater extent in the playlist com-mittee and reduces the individualimpact of producers. However, thespokesman says, "We see all of thisas a positive thing. It is still open forproducers to impress people withtheir enthusiasm for particularrecords at the playlist committeemeetings."

It is understood that Radio 1'smanagement had felt that some pro-ducers had taken a musical direc-tion that was not always in keepingwith the station's overall identity.Asked about this, the spokesmansays, "One advantage of the newsystem is that the network will seemconsistent across all of its shows."

The spokesman says Radio 1'sphilosophy is to strike a balancebetween reflecting and leading pop-ular opinion. He states that popularopinion will be reflected throughthe Premier list of eight records-each of which will receive 25 playsa week-while the N list will seekto lead popular taste.

Of the Premier list, he says, "Itwill give a lot of exposure to thebiggest current artists which willmean that listeners will not be fazedby new talent because they'll be sur-rounded by a lot of familiar music."

The record companies are stillcoming to terms with what the newsystem will mean, but they ac-knowledge the greater exposure fornew talent an appearance on the Nlist will entail. However, they areconcerned at the reduction in air-time for non-playlisted records.

Says one senior promotionsexecutive, "If you're on the playlist,you're laughing. If you're not, thereare a lot of people back at the officewho will be crying."

Glasgow To Host Biggest EverSound City, Features 30 BandsUNITED KINGDOM

The UK's biggest annual celebra-tion of music has reached unprece-dented proportions this year andhas attracted a record amount ofinterest from Continental Europeanbroadcasters.

Sound City, a partnershipbetween BBC Radio 1 FM, theBritish Phonographic Industry(BPI) and the UK Musicians'Union, is being held this year inGlasgow which, says event chair-man Stuart Grundy, is the biggestcity it is ever likely to visit.

Sound City is a week of con-certs, seminars, talks and work-shops held in a British city outsideLondon each year. Established in1992, it has previously been stagedin Norwich and Sheffield.

Radio 1 is broadcasting 40hours of music from the event andis featuring 30 bands, ranging from

unsigned acts to established artistssuch as M -People, Jamiroquai,Inspiral Carpets and the Charla-tans.

Grundy says, "It's inevitablethat Sound City is bigger and betterthis year, and I have to keep re-minding people that next yearwon't be so big. This is the biggestcity we're ever going to go to."

Grundy is gratified that 30bands are playing in Glasgow aspart of the event and that venueswhich have never previously stagedmusic are contributing to the total.

Radio stations from Germany,Ireland, Switzerland and the Scan-dinavian states are also representedin Glasgow. The stations are beingoffered a package of programmingculled from Radio l's nightly two -and -a -half-hour live shows.

Grundy points out that, in addi-tion, BBC Radio Scotland hasrecorded many of the club gigs of

the emerging Scottish bands,including the .Trashcan Sinatras,Thrum and the Pastels.

Sound City has consistentlygrown in size since its inception,due to a combination of localenthusiasm in its host cities andBBC Radio's appreciation of theevent. Senior BBC executives havesuggested the concept of runningmore than one Sound City eachyear, but the idea has been dis-missed as impractical.

However, the first Sound Cityspin-off event is to be held inBrighton later this year. Partly spon-sored by the BBC and the Musi-cians' Union, 60 young musicianswill gather for a week of seminarsand workshops. Radio 1 will broad-cast some of their work as well asairing a series of concerts by newbands at the town's Zap Club. Anumber of associated talks and lec-tures will also be held. JC-M

Nydahl, Friedman Prevail InFierce Bidding For SodertaljeSWEDENby Nicholas George

The latest round of local radiofrequency auctions in Sweden hasproduced a fresh chorus of criti-cism, with one of the successfulbidders calling the system "littlemore than state bribery."

The auction of two frequen-cies to cover Sodertalje, a city 35km south of Stockholm, wasfierce as the licence holder willalso be able to broadcast into theSwedish capital.

Frequency 104.1 was boughtfor Skr2.1 million (app.US$280.000) by Radio Nova in ajoint venture with RadioMegapol. Radio Nova alreadybroadcasts in the area, whileRadio Megapol, which is ownedby the powerful publishing com-pany Bonnier, has four stations

in Stockholm and cities to thewest. Radio Megapol was keen tocontrol the frequency as therehave been fears it would causeinterference to their broadcasts inthe south of Stockholm.

Station manager ClaesNydahl says it was still uncertainas to what kind of service wouldbe provided on the frequency.However, he is remains upset atthe way frequencies have beenallocated in the country. "It'squite absurd. The system is equalto state bribery. The one whopays the state the most moneygets the chance to exercise hisright to freedom of expression."

The other Sodertalje frequen-cy, 100.8, went to a consortiumled by Jan Friedman, formerlywith Radio Rix. He says thegroup has not decided whether toaim the station at the whole

New Ten -Year Frequency PlanDue For SwitzerlandSWITZERLANDby Miranda Watson

New broadcasting plans areexpected to be laid out this yearby the Swiss government for thenext 10 years. Local radio headof local broadcasting associationBAKOM Marcel Regnotto saysthe Swiss government is takingits time over the new frequencyplan and at present there is noinformation available as to how

many frequencies are to be dis-tributed and in which regions.

The government is expectedto complete its frequency planthis Autumn for Zurich andGerman-speaking radio licences,with bidding for licences in early'95, says Regnotto. Bidding forlicences in French- and Italianspeaking Switzerland is expectedto take place this Autumn.

There are currently 39 localradio licences in Switzerland.

Stockholm area or concentrate onbuilding a firm local base inSodertalje where there is lesscompetition. The frequency costSkr790.000.

If the two winners do intendto broadcast into Stockholm, itwill bring the number of com-mercial stations in the capital to12.

Originally, the Sodertalje auc-tion was delayed because of com-plaints that one bidder wasbacked by the city's local council.It was claimed that it was againstthe law for a local authority to beinvolved in the operation of acommercial station. In the end,lack of money rather than legali-ties killed off the council bid.

YLE Cuts Costs Via New DealWith Copyright Bureau TeostoFINLANDby Kari Helopaitio

State broadcaster Oy YlesiradioAb (YLE) and Finnish copyrightbureau Teosto have reached anew agreement concerning feeson music played on YLE radioand TV channels.

According to the newagreement, payments will bebased on the estimated audience

of each programme, rather than aflat per -broadcast minute charge.The more listeners/viewers aprogramme has, the higher thecompensation payable to com-posers and authors. A specialarrangement will be developed totackle Swedish -language pro-grammes, which have very lowaudience figures.

The YLE has being payingTeosto some FIM40 million (app.

US$8 million) annually, and thissum is now expected to be someFIM5 million lower.

YLE is also planning to startnegotiations with artists and pro-ducers collection society Gramexin the near future, and is reported-ly seeking a 50% reduction oncurrent Gramex charges. Thesociety currently receives someFIM30 million a year from YLE.

New Berlin Station JFK TargetsOld DemographicsGERMANYby Miranda Watson

New Berlin private station jfli98,2 added a new format to theBerlin radio landscape when itwent on air on March 23 targetingmiddle-aged listeners with a softACE format. The station is aimedat 3054 -year -olds. On April 29, itwill be followed by Radio 50+,which will offer programming forover 50s.

Schlager-formatted RadioArabella in Munich and easylistening -formatted AlsterRadioin Hamburg already cater to olderlisteners, but also attract manyyounger listeners. Until now, noone has produced a format aimedspecifically at the over '30s. Themost competitive radio market inGermany, Berlin is often regardedas a testing ground for newformats and ideas.

Berliner!" plays a soft ACEformat incorporating swing, jazzand blues. The station's repertoireincludes everything from FrankSinatra, Barbara Streisand andSammy Davis Junior to Sade,The Bee Gees, Fats Domino,The Beatles and Barry White.Star DJ on the station is formerPD of American military stationAFN Mark White, who will nowhost his own weekend show.

MD/PD Thomas Dietrichsays the 30-54 age -group has beenneglected in Berlin and in the restof Germany. "We decided totarget 30-50 year olds as no elsein Berlin is doing so at themoment. There are lots of stationsmaking radio for kids, so there

was no sense in us launching yetanother format for this age group.AlsterRadio and several publicstations make radio for peopleover 50, but no one in Germany iscatering for the middle-aged 30-50 year olds, the rock 'n' rollgeneration."

Dietrich says the reaction fromlisteners after one week on the airhas been enthusiastic. "People aretelling us how good it is to hear aprogramme that doesn't play loudmusic all the time and most saythey've been waiting forsomething like this for a longtime. We've also had a lot ofresponse for younger listenersunder 30 who enjoy listening tojfk too."

"A fantastic blues groove with a great hook"

music director, 104.6 RTL Berlin, Berlin.

within its borders; and, on a vol-untary basis, two Irish stationshave decided to underscore theirsupport for their local domestictalent with their own informalquota systems.

But in Germany, Europe'sbiggest music market, the recordindustry regards statutory quotasas "an emergency measure," saysPeter Zombik, head of musicindustry association the BPW. Hesays, "Radio quotas shouldn't beasked for in a situation where youcan still talk and hope for progressas regards the amount of Germanproduct on the airwaves. Quotaswould, of course, help us bringmore attention to German product,but we aren't in a position to go toBonn to ask for them."

Zombik points out that theGerman record industry's disquietover the amount of its productbeing broadcast is something thatis being addressed in a dialoguewith the radio stations. "We havean on -going discussion with pub-lic and private broadcasters aimedat increasing the amount of Ger-man repertoire on the airwaves,"he says, adding, "We are fightingagainst the ignorance and preju-dice of programmers towards Ger-man product."

That is not, though, a senti-ment shared by the broadcasters.RTL Berlin PD Arno Mullercomments, "The idea of quotas isterrible and I think the people lob-bying for them are losers." Heargues that the debate should cen-tre less around the concept of quo-tas and more around the quality ofGerman -produced talent andmusic. "There isn't a station inGermany that wouldn't play Ger-man product if it's good and hashit potential; Die Prinzen, West-ernhagen and Herbert Groene-meyer all get radio airplay," hestates.

Miiller contends that any quotasystem will adversely affect a sta-tion's ability to serve its targetaudience. "I know that our listen-ers do not want to hear [too much]German -language music, so I

would be very stupid if I weresuddenly to start playing 40% justbecause a government regulationtold me to do so."

At pubcaster WestDeutscherRundfunk, head of music RudolfHeinemann is a staunch believerin programming more Germanmusic, but he is firmly againstquotas. He says, "Music program-mers should be free to decide forthemselves to play more nationalproduct. What we really need ismore dialogue."

Furthermore, Heinemannbelieves that French -style quotaswould not work in Germanybecause, unlike France, Germanyis a federal nation.

In France, the quota systemstipulates that stations must play aminimum of 40% of Frenchmusic, half of which must be fromnew talent. However, in the run-up to the introduction of the quotasystem, broadcasting regulatorCSA is fostering dialoguebetween the record companies and

rights holders on one hand and theradio stations on the other to try toresolve the attendant questions.Some of those questions, though,are large indeed.

For instance, it has yet to beestablished over what period thequota regulation will apply-byday, by week or by month-andexactly what is meant by new tal-ent. (Record industry associationSNEP considers any act that hasnot produced two gold -sellingalbums as new talent). In addition,even the definition of Frenchmusic is still open to debate; doesit mean music in the French lan-guage, or would songs sung in thelanguages of the country's formercolonies also qualify?

But, despite the continuingdialogue on these issues, JacquesRigaud, president of RTL-par-ent company of EHR webs FunRadio and M40-told a radioindustry gathering last month thatquotas were "perverse and use-less." He warned that the radiostations would take legal mea-sures to try to prevent their impo-sition.

Rigaud refers to a decisionfrom the superior French court theConseil d'Etat which says that theonly power the CSA has in thematter of quotas is that given to itby strict definition of law.Because the law in this arearequires the CSA to negotiateagreements between the recordcompanies and the radio stations,Rigaud argues that the body hasno power to impose quota defini-tion's if no agreement is reached.

One source who attends theCSA-sponsored meetings betweenrecord companies and radio sta-tions comments, "The legislatorshave made quotas mandatory buthaven't said exactly how theyshould be implemented, what arethe exact definitions and how itshould be controlled; that's not tomention that nowhere can it beseen how the CSA, which is sup-posed to control all these quotas,will be able to finance the toolsrequired to control this legislation.The result is that we are all still inthe dark."

In the interim, relationsbetween the record and radioindustries are taking on a frostyedge. One programme directormade his point by returning to arecord company a package of pro-motional product because 40% ofthe records were not French.

Europe 2 MD Martin Brisac,underscores the feeling, "Radiostations have 40% quotas; whatabout the music industry? Do theyhave 40% quotas?"

For the record companies, theyfeel nothing has yet changed,except, perhaps, for an increaseddifficulty in persuading radio sta-tions to add new tracks to theirplaylists. Says one harrassed pro-motions executive, "It's hardenough for established acts-andI don't even mention new acts."

In Ireland, the situation is farless fraught. Two Dublin ACE sta-tions, FM104 and Classic Hits98FM, have voluntarily decidedto put more emphasis on domesticproduct. FM104 has announced

that it is introducing a self-imposed quota of 20% Irishmusic, while Classic Hits is plan-ning a four -days -a -week "totallyIrish" programme from April 11.The programme will be part of thestation's intention to include moreIrish music overall in its sched-ules.

These moves by stations couldbe seen as a victory for the Jobs InMusic campaign (JIM) which hasbeen monitoring the output of theDublin broadcasters and pressinghard for more Irish music on com-mercial stations. JIM may nowturn its attention to national pub -casters, full -service -formattedRTE Radio One and mainstreamEHR 2FM; the campaign saysthat in two days in January andFebruary, the stations' Irish con-tent ranged from 11% to 14%.

However, a spokeswoman forRTE last week rejected JIM'sclaims. "Taking their figures from07.00 to 19.00 isn't a valid exer-cise. Overall, RTE's figures arevery good and both stations aim toachieve the 25% Irish content."

Reacting to the initiative of thetwo Dublin stations, WillieKavanagh, chairman of the IrishIFPI group, says, "I think they aresteps in the right direction and Ihave to believe it's being done forthe right reasons. Pressure groupslike the IFPI should be vocal inpersuading people to play moreIrish music. It will be good for theIrish music industry and good forthe economy."

IFPI has written to Irish artsminister Michael D. Higgins sup-porting 'the concept of a 25%quota for the radio industry.

Commenting on the report,Kavanagh says, "It makes sense tohave an arbitrary quota of around25% as long as it doesn't put theradio station in a position where itwould lessen the quality of oftheir output. It makes absolutesense provided the local music isof good enough quality.

"An arbitrary pan-Europeanquota would not work, however. Ithugely depends on the size andstrength of the local music indus-try. In the Irish context, there is avibrant local music industry and a25% quota would be appropriate."

A music industry of unques-tioned size and strength is just

over the Irish Sea from Dublin inthe UK. Because the UK is theworld's second -strongest musicsource, the concept of quotas hasnever been an issue there. Indeed,because the British governmentbelieves so strongly in the freemarket and because it has mas-sively deregulated the radio indus-try in recent years, there is virtual-ly no prospect of it introducing anew level of regulation in thefuture.

Nor is the government underpressure to do so. Record compa-ny association the British Phono-graphic Industry (BPI) under-pins its arguments to politiciansby pointing out that, beyond pro-tecting copyrights, the govern-ment gives record companies noother financial or legislative assis-tance. The BPI feels that suchindependence-and its substantialcontribution to the country's econ-omy and international influ-ence-strengthens its hand whentalking to politicians.

However, because of the sig-nificance of UK product in conti-nental European markets, theBritish record industry haswatched the projected introduc-tion of quotas there with increas-ing alarm. When French legisla-tors were debating the concept,British record companies put pres-sure on their French partners tooppose the introduction of quotasbut without success.

Now, as one senior UK execu-tive puts it, "We've just been leftto fume quietly."

So, where France has cut apath, will others follow? The latestmajor market where the idea ofquotas has been raised is Spain,where performing rights societySGAE mentioned the idea in pass-ing while discussing a number ofways of promoting Spanish musicwith culture minister CarmenAlborch (M&M, February 12).

SGAE's stated position,though, is that it is opposed toquotas, but feels they may be nec-essary if other EU countries adoptthem and if Spanish radio contin-ues to large amounts of non -Span-ish music.

SGAE spokespersonAlmundena Solana says of herorganisation's conversation withthe minister, "The issue of quotas

was raised, but it is not even onthe negotiating table. It is waydown our list of priorities at pre-sent."

Carlos Grande, director ofSpanish IFPI group AFYVE, saysquotas have never been discussedby the organisation's membership."In any case, I doubt if the level ofSpanish music played on the radiohas gone down in the past fiveyears," he comments.

Grande points out that two sta-tions, Radio Ole and CadenaDIAL, play all -Spanish musicanyway, and DIAL is the second -most popular FM net with 1.1 mil-lion listeners. He adds that inSpain's largest pop market, thesouthern region of Andalucia withseven million people, the localstations play an abundance ofSpanish music. "So far, the ratioof Spanish to non -Spanish musicis not considered a problem."

Jose Ramon Pardo, MD atCadena SER's Cadena M-80Serie Oro, says, "Quotas wouldmean Spanish radio losing audi-ence because we'd have to playsub -standard product. The prob-lem is that 80% of what the multi-nationals release is non -Spanishmaterial. If they produced moregood Spanish music, things wouldbe easier."

Pardo was Radio Ole MD forthree years "during which time Ihad not one letter of support fromthe government." He recalls a

1968 law introducing quotasunder General Franco that wasignored by radio "under a stronggovernment" and which fell intodisuse.

From the record company side,Alvaro de Torres, MD of RCASpain, says, "Quotas would be theworst thing that could happen.The labels do look for betterSpanish music, but because that'sour job not to help radio push uptheir quotas. Radios play musicthey think will interest their audi-ence. If that means a lot of Anglo-Saxon stuff, then that is the realityof the market."

The realities of the singleEuropean market may be some-what different, however.

announced the launch of theGPI a portable stereobroadcast mixer. Basedaround the LM1 locationmixer, the GPI is availablein either 6, 8 or 12 inputframes with an option of19 -inch rack mounting forthe 8 input version.

There is a choice ofmono or stereo input mod-ules. The mono module features a high -gain, low -noise mic amp, switchable phantompower (48v/12v) and a three -band EQ. The stereo module has a switchable OdB or -10dBinput, L -R selection and a two -band EQ. Fader start can be fitted as an option. Both typesof channel feature two Aux sends with Aux 1 being globally switchable pre- or post -fadewhile Aux 2 is a permanent post -fade send. Faders are precision 10mm long throw.

The Master Module has a choice of PPM or VU metering and featured an internalspeaker for check monitoring of any bus. There is one headphone output on the mastermodule and a further two assignable headphone outputs on the monitor module whichalso features talkback to either Aux send, the output bus or an external destination.

Of course this was alright for the megarich state broadcasters who could affordUHERs and the maintenance personnel tolook after them, but for the newly emergingsmaller stations the cassette proved to bevery useful. With the introduction of highermetal content tapes cassette became aneven more viable format as the originalrecording quality increased. Of course cas-sette offers many advantages as a portableformat not the least of which is its relativecheapness compared to reel-to-reel. Light-ness is another advantage as anyone whohas had to lug a UHER around for anylength of time will agree. Recording time isanother blessing. With a maximum possible60 minutes a side for cassette, compared to15 on standard reel to reel tape for aUHER, the interviewer is not so con-strained. Of course this is a mixed blessingas it does allow them to waffle on for ages,safe in the knowledge that it can all be edit-ed down later rather than encouraging inci-sive questioning.

With the introduction of hard disk -basedediting systems the cassette has received anew lease of life as a portable recordingmedium. As the new digital editing systemshave no affect on quality the enhancementgained frombetter cassettetapes is main-tained and, inthe end, the lis-tener is hardpressed tonotice any dif-ference in qual-ity.

Althoughsome peopleuse the "walk -

man" style of machine either with its built-in mic or with an external hand held unit,most prefer the larger "shoulder -portable"machines such as the Marantz range-probably the most popular units available.Marantz now has four models; the monoCP130, the two head stereo CP230, thestereo three head CP430 and the latestaddition, the excellent PMD222 three headmono unit with XLR input and telephonejack.

Since the move to digital systems oneor two new formats have come onto thescene that offer good portable recordingcapabilities. The first widely available sys-tem was DAT. It took a while for a suit-able machine to hit the streets and, eventhen, a certain amount of modification was

required. IMB Communicationslead the field with a modification tothe Aiwa portable machine, sold asthe Prodat. It has now followed withits own machine; the HHB Portadatrange available with or without time -code.

Modification is necessary to"domestic" DAT machines to enablethem to copy digital as the SCMS sys-tem prevents this. The latest genera-tion of portable DAT machines areexcellent units offering unrivalledquality without any of the hiss, wowand flutter problems of cassette but

do, of course cost around 10 times as muchas analogue cassette machines.

Since DAT was introduced a couplemore digital formats have appeared. Digi-tal Compact Cassette and MiniDisc wereboth introduced at roughly the same timeand in stiff competition with each other.Both systems have advantages over DATand analogue cassette; indeed most DCCplayers are able to replay analogue cas-settes as well as both recording and replay-ing DCCs. Sony's MiniDisc format hasalready started to make inroads to theNAB cart replacement scene and it hasmajor size advantages for portable record-ing. As with DAT, DCC and MiniDischave distinct price disadvantages againstanalogue cassette but both have the abilityto replay digitally into a hard disk system,offering a major quality boost.

The future offers the promise of tape-less machines, the signal being recordedonto memory chips. This system relies onvery heavy digital compression and,although studio based systems have beenconstructed, there is yet to be a useableportable vision. There are systems thatallow audio to be recorded onto portablecomputers and edited in situ and it won'tbe long before one sub -notebook computerwill be able to do all that and send the edit-ed audio via ISDN to the studio.

"It's a brilliant song for FM rock,

exactly right for our 25-40 year target group"

Lars Bodin

music director, City 107, Gothenburg.




within its borders; and, on a vol-untary basis, two Irish stationshave decided to underscore theirsupport for their local domestictalent with their own informalquota systems.

But in Germany, Europe'sbiggest music market, the recordindustry regards statutory quotasas "an emergency measure," saysPeter Zombik, head of musicindustry association the BPW. Hesays, "Radio quotas shouldn't beasked for in a situation where youcan still talk and hope for progressas regards the amount of Germanproduct on the airwaves. Quotaswould, of course, help us bringmore attention to German product,but we aren't in a position to go toBonn to ask for them."

Zombik points out that theGerman record industry's disquietover the amount of its productbeing broadcast is something thatis being addressed in a dialoguewith the radio stations. "We havean on -going discussion with pub-lic and private broadcasters aimedat increasing the amount of Ger-man repertoire on the airwaves,"he says, adding, "We are fightingagainst the ignorance and preju-dice of programmers towards Ger-man product."

That is not, though, a senti-ment shared by the broadcasters.RU Berlin PD Arno Mullercomments, "The idea of quotas isterrible and I think the people lob-bying for them are losers." Heargues that the debate should cen-tre less around the concept of quo-tas and more around the quality ofGerman -produced talent andmusic. "There isn't a station inGermany that wouldn't play Ger-man product if it's good and hashit potential; Die Prinzen, West-ernhagen and Herbert Groene-meyer all get radio airplay," hestates.

Muller contends that any quotasystem will adversely affect a sta-tion's ability to serve its targetaudience. "I know that our listen-ers do not want to hear [too much]German -language music, so I

would be very stupid if I weresuddenly to start playing 40% justbecause a government regulationtold me to do so."

At pubcaster WestDeutscherRundfunk, head of music RudolfHeinemann is a staunch believerin programming more Germanmusic, but he is firmly againstquotas. He says, "Music program-mers should be free to decide forthemselves to play more nationalproduct. What we really need ismore dialogue."

Furthermore, Heinemannbelieves that French -style quotaswould not work in Germanybecause, unlike France, Germanyis a federal nation.

In France, the quota systemstipulates that stations must play aminimum of 40% of Frenchmusic, half of which must be fromnew talent. However, in the run-up to the introduction of the quotasystem, broadcasting regulatorCSA is fostering dialoguebetween the record companies and

rights holders onradio stations onresolve the atteSome of those qare large indeed.

For instance,established overquota regulationday, by week ofexactly what is rent. (Record incSNEP considersnot producedalbums as new fteven the definmusic is still optit mean music isguage, or wouldlanguages of thecolonies also qug

But, despitedialogue on thesRigaud, presideent company ofRadio and MIindustry gatheritquotas were "pless." He warn(stations wouldsures to try to p.sition.

Rigaud referfrom the superioConseil d'Etatonly power thematter of quotasby strict definition vi 14W.

Because the law in this arearequires the CSA to negotiateagreements between the recordcompanies and the radio stations,Rigaud argues that the body hasno power to impose quota defini-tions if no agreement is reached.

One source who attends theCSA-sponsored meetings betweenrecord companies and radio sta-tions comments, "The legislatorshave made quotas mandatory buthaven't said exactly how theyshould be implemented, what arethe exact definitions and how itshould be controlled; that's not tomention that nowhere can it beseen how the CSA, which is sup-posed to control all these quotas,will be able to finance the toolsrequired to control this legislation.The result is that we are all still inthe dark."

In the interim, relationsbetween the record and radioindustries are taking on a frostyedge. One programme directormade his point by returning to arecord company a package of pro-motional product because 40% ofthe records were not French.

Europe 2 MD Martin Brisac,underscores the feeling, "Radiostations have 40% quotas; whatabout the music industry? Do theyhave 40% quotas?"

For the record companies, theyfeel nothing has yet changed,except, perhaps, for an increaseddifficulty in persuading radio sta-tions to add new tracks to theirplaylists. Says one harrassed pro-motions executive, "It's hardenough for established acts-andI don't even mention new acts."

In Ireland, the situation is farless fraught. Two Dublin ACE sta-tions, FM104 and Classic Hits98FM, have voluntarily decidedto put more emphasis on domesticproduct. FM104 has announced

IFPI has written to Irish artsminister Michael 0, Higgins sup-porting the concept of a 25%quota for the radio industry.

Commenting on the report,Kavanagh says, "It makes sense tohave an arbitrary quota of around25% as long as it doesn't put theradio station in a position where itwould lessen the quality of oftheir output. It makes absolutesense provided the local music isof good enough quality.

"An arbitrary pan-Europeanquota would not work, however. Ithugely depends on the size andstrength of the local music indus-try. In the Irish context, there is avibrant local music industry and a25% quota would be appropriate."

sure on their French partners tooppose the introduction of quotasbut without success.

Now, as one senior UK execu-tive puts it, "We've just been leftto fume quietly."

So, where France has cut apath, will others follow? The latestmajor market where the idea ofquotas has been raised is Spain,where performing rights societySGAE mentioned the idea in pass-ing while discussing a number ofways of promoting Spanish musicwith culture minister CarmenAlborch (M&M, February 12).

SGAE's stated position,though, is that it is opposed toquotas, but feels they may be nec-essary if other EU countries adoptthem and if Spanish radio contin-ues to large amounts of non -Span-ish music.

SGAE spokespersonAlmundena Solana says of herorganisation's conversation withthe minister. "The issue of quotas

three years "during which time Ihad not one letter of support fromthe government." He recalls a

1968 law introducing quotasunder General Franco that wasignored by radio "under a stronggovernment" and which fell intodisuse.

From the record company side,Alvaro de Torres, MD of RCASpain, says, "Quotas would be theworst thing that could happen.The labels do look for betterSpanish music, but because that'sour job not to help radio push uptheir quotas. Radios play musicthey think will interest their audi-ence. If that means a lot of Anglo-Saxon stuff, then that is the realityof the market."

The realities of the singleEuropean market may be some-what different, however.

APRS Set To Strengthen Exhibitor BaseHeadlining as "The One Audio Show," APRS '94 is set forJune 22-24 at Olympia 2 in London. Stressing the audio aspect,APRS hopes to strengthen the broad base of exhibitors and del- Al= I:=1egates who attend this show. There will be a wide range of Alk"briefings" sessions-workshops and forums covering the latestindustry innovations.

APRS is to open up membership to commercially run training providers that meet thecriteria of competence. Universities and colleges have been admitted to the associationfor many years and are now included, along with the newer commercial outfits, in a new"educational member" category.

As part of acceptance, educational members will need to meet the criteria of compe-tence and professionalism. Premises will be inspected and the competence of teachingstaff will be checked. Any claims of guaranteed future will not be allowed and, if a train-ing studio is available, its actual availability to students will be monitored.

Whether you're running an all -talk stationor the hottest hits 24 hours a day, there aretimes that you will require someone to gooutside the studio and record an interviewor some vox pops for inclusion in the show.

In the past the standard item of record-ing equipment for this purpose was theUHER portable reel-to-reel machine buttimes have changed and the journalist orpresenter now has a wide choice of portablerecording formats. First on the scene wasthe humble music cassette developed byPhilips in the late '60s and even now themainstay of all portable formats. Amongthe audio purists the use of cassettes forportable recording was (and still is)frowned upon. Its argument was that thequality of the original recording was insuf-

COUNTING CROWSMr. Jones - Geffen R/A/EHRPRODUCER: T -Bone Burnett

No, it's not the Talking Heads song from1988. An outtake of the Tragically Hip's UpTo Here sessions is more like it. Good stufffor "April and everything after!" City107/Malmo head of music Lars Bodin par-ticularly likes "those harmonies like CSNYand the Eagles used to do. I like to hear thisslightly rougher version of that typical Ame-rican group sound again. Twice a day is ouradvice!"

DEACON BLUEI Was Right And You Were Wrong - Columbia EHR

PRODUCER: Steve OsborneEvery compilation album needs a bonustrack, and so does Our Town - The Best OfDeacon Blue. Starting off with a bit of PinkFloyd suspense, a film score should be Mr.Ross' next job.

LUCIANAGet It Up For Love - Chrysalis D/EHRPRODUCER: Terry Adams

Three mixes of this uplifting pop dance songcan't beat the soulful Sister Sister themefrom the TV series "Anna Lee," whichcould serve as an alternative A -side.

ALBUMS

ALISON LIMERICKWith A Twist - Arista D/EHRPRODUCER: D. Morales/J. & H. Marsh/F. Knuckles/

T. Bran/J. Waddel/R. Beaujolais/R. Marcangelo

Normally an army of producers is a badsign, but here the result is surprisinglycoherent. All of them have chosen for asimilar beat, prominent but not to pushy.Limerick's voice is the glue that stickseverything together. The good news is thatthe recent singles Time Of Our Lives andLove Come Down are completely overshad-owed by Crime To Be That Cool and mostof all the gospelesque track So Long.

MALCOLM MCLARENParis - Vogue A

PRODUCER: M. McLaren/R. Millar/L. GormanThe man who changed the world-punk stillinspires fashion-now presents sketches ofParis, while celebrities like FrancoiseHardy and Amina hold his hand. All littlesounds of the metropolis are audible; a real-ly detailed study. A climax is reached whenhe insists that Catherine Deneuve, the icequeen of the silver screen, sing on ParisParis. No film could render such "mag-nifique" impressions.

MISTY OLDLANDSupernatural - Columbia EHR/D/RPRODUCER: Misty Oldland/Joe DworniakTwo simultaneous covers of the samesong-one by rappers Blown and one byMisty-serve as excellent introductions forboth acts. Her version of the horniest songin history-Serge Gainsbourg's JeT'aime... Moi Non Plus, renamed A FairAffair-unclouded her talent as a per-former. She's also a fine songwriter, with alove for jazz and a great awareness of mod-ern rhythms. Caroline is the only "disso-nant" on the 12 -track set, being a "normal"pop ballad.

PANTERAFar Beyond Driven - Atco M/RPRODUCER: Terry Date/Vinnie Paul/Pantera

If Clinton were to plan his own version of a"back to basics" policy, then Pantera shouldbe the first on the hitlist. Reading theirlyrics, you can't believe that this CD belongsto that elite group of albums entering at thetop slot in the US. The music is furious,almost the grindcore variant of metal. Afterthis hell with the standard parental warning,the Black Sabbath cover Planet Caravan isan oasis of rest.

DAVID LEE ROTHYour Filthy Little Mouth - ReprisePRODUCER: Nile RodgersHard rock's biggest mouth, "DiamondDave," cut his hair without losing hisstrength. That doesn't imply that he's writ-ing the new bible of rock, but it bearsenough variety to keep you interested. Witha producer like Rodgers, the overall tone isfairly "black" from bluesy (Experience andNightlife) to jazzy (Sunburn). That doesn'tstop when country boy Travis Tritt joins inon Cheatin' Heart Cafe. The biggest sur-prises, however, are the toaster on No BigThing and the "Urban NYC" mix of thesoulful track You're Breathin' It. Old VHadepts will prefer Big Train, Roth's solevocal derailing.

THE BRIAN SETZER ORCHESTRAThe Brian Setzer Orchestra - Hollywood ACE/J/RPRODUCER: Brian Setzer

Warmed up by the latest Stray Cats' CDOriginal Cool, the mood gets sultrier withthis solo album in a big band setting. Hissheer joy in doing this is radiated from A toZ. Carl Perkins' Your True Love is on bothtrack listings. There are great similaritieswith Canadian blues man Colin James'current release; the tiny difference is bestindicated by his album title The Little BigBand. Setzer is surrounded by a 17 -pieceorchestra, which at times blows him fullyoff his feet. Whereas James remains strictlyR&B, Setzer also walks Sinatra's crooningpath (September Skies). For EHR use,Vince Taylor's Brand New Cadillac-bestknown in the Clash's rendition-is mostsuitable.

GERARDINA TROVATONon E Un Film - Sugar ACE/EHRPRODUCER: Celso Valli

Trovato is definitely not the averagesinging beauty. "It's for real, it's not afilm," is the lyrical leitmotif on her secondalbum. In her philosophical musings thewar in Bosnia is one of those realities, thatwe only know from TV footage. Whenshe's angry about something more triviallike her lover, the music sounds embitteredtoo, because that's life. On Sono Le Tre herman is nailed down completely, as she rais-es her voice and a guitar shoots like amachine gun. As far as composition goes,she sometimes borders on French colleaguePatricia Kaas' territory, especially on SeFossi Un Uomo. For those who want pas-sion the hard way.

VARIOUS ARTISTS

Rhythm Country And Blues - MCAPRODUCER: Don Was/Tony BrownMission impossible accomplished? Countryis white man's soul, but is soul black man'scountry? Find out for yourself with theseduets between representatives from bothgenres. Above all it's a soul album; countryswing is almost absent. When Sam Mooreand Conway Twitty enter the ring, theyprove the formula works best when thepartners are equal and the selected songcould have been country or soul by origin.Rainy Night In Georgia written by swamprocker Tony Joe White is such a perfectchoice half way. Although remaining tooclose to the Band's original, the same canbe said about Marty Stuart teaming upwith the Staple Singers on The Weight.Top of the bill are George Jones and B.B.King with Patches. In Muscle Shoals' hey-day this project's potential was provedeveryday.

Alert programmers will remember theinterim single One True Woman, herPolydor label debut as inserted withM&M's "Summer Track Attack" box oftwo years ago. Last year's collaborationwith Aswad-the Ace cover How Long-further helped to keep the dance primadonna of the late '80s from fading intoobscurity. With only one album, 1988'sWanted (on Big Life), to her account, OneOn One is a very belated successor, pre-viewed by the appropriately titled singleHave Mercy.

Her new manager Steve Jenkins, how-ever, doesn't fear the world has forgottenabout her. "Her strong image will work as acatalyst in the re-establishment process.The sales on her last album show there's amarket for her that can't have faded entire-ly. She may have had no album out, but shehad three hits during her 'absence.' Only in'92 she failed to have one. Media interest isvery good, so we aren't in despair at all.We have playlists on 45 of the 60 radio sta-tions you can get in the UK, and four majorTVs in the first week alone."

Yazz is very TV -genic, which helps agreat deal, says Polydor UK product man-ager Sue Johns. "We organised a media

launch party in Paris, covered by TV crewsfrom practically all territories, includingMTV Europe. All this activity also tied inwith her guest appearance on the catwalkfor hip Parisienne fashiondesigner Xula Bet onMarch 9. This providedenough footage, along withfilmed material from a boattrip on the river Seine. Herstyle is far less teeny boppythan it was, and we hopethat has come across."

Indeed the AlbertHammond/ShelleyPeiken-co-written singleHave Mercy proves that thedays of The Only Way IsUp are over now. She'salmost verging on LisaStansfield domain, although Jenkins main-tains the dance swing is not lost. "It's mel-lower than before, but still dancy. With aman like Steve Jervier at the helm, it's farmore cutting edge stuff. The good response

on the club mixes is my testimony."It depends on what you call "clubs" of

course. Baby Talk is most clubby in asweaty dance sense, while Back In Love

matches the plush of a chicnight club best. Alwaysknown for her good handfor picking the rightcover-apart from theaforementioned reggae-fiedHow Long-One On Onealso features a stunningversion of the Korgis' 1980hit Everybody's Got ToLearn Sometime with amulti -format capability.Another one is BurtBacharach's Look Of Love.

Until April 18, therelease date of the album,

the single will do, heralding a maturedYazz. GWR FM/Bristol/Swindon head ofmusic has spotted the new style too. "It'sless dancy and poppy. She progressedtowards a slightly older audience."

A Sampler Doesn't Fit The Nits' 20th AnniversaryHOLLANDby Robbert Tilli

In general jubilees are used for "GreatestHits" samplers, which often painfully pointup the downward artistic spiral over theyears. Not so for Dutch pop combs theNits, now in business for 20 years, and stillin musical development. Instead of optingfor the easy anniversary compilation, thecreative force proves out to be fully intacton the new, 15th album dA dA dA.

Aad Link, the band's manager since1978, confesses that the original plan con-sisted of a "Best Of' CD. "They went intothe studio for three new songs to be includ-ed on the track listing. But it went sosmoothly that they decided not to stop andrecord a completely new album. Besides,it's never too late for a compilation. Weeven had to cancel a Dutch winter tour, buta new one is about to take off."

The single, the title track-differently

spelled as Da Da Da-is a brief summaryof the evolution throughout the Nits'career. In 1974 it started off in a '60s beat -inspired fashion and it steadily grew intothinking person's pop, notthat strange for art schoolgraduates. During the lastyears the arrangementshave become more sparse.undressing the music to itsbare essence. With the newsingle, the perfect balancehas been found betweenpop and art, if you like. It'sthe blue print for the com-plete set.

Its 1992 predecessorTing (not counting the Hjuvi project) wasthe musical equivalent of dada. By thattime reduced to only the nucleus-singerHenk Hofstede, keyboardist Robert -JanStips and drummer Rob Cloet-songswere condensed out of long jam sessions

in their own studio. A quintet now withnew members bassist Martin Bakker andpercussionist/violinist Peter Meuris, popstructures are more obvious on the new

album, with a potentialequal to the band's biggestalbum and single so far,1987's In The DutchMountains.

Internationally praisedfor their unmistakable ownstyle, the Nits still soundlike the old "DutchMasters" set to music.Dreams and Mourir AvantQuinze Ans are alreadymentioned as future singles.

And what to think about Day And Nightwith its suspenseful pizzicato strings andthe uptempo number Bilbao Boa?

An album with so many single candi-dates is a God's gift for any record compa-ny. Admits Sony Music Holland intema-

Solo Artist Hallyday Becomes Band MemberFRANCEby Robbert Tilli

Blind Fish featuring David Hallyday weread on the CD booklet. What? A megastar has formed a rock 'n' roll band? Right!The million seller and son of France's pre-mier rocker Johnny Hallyday and actressSylvie Vartan has done what DavidBowie did before him with TinMachine-go back to basics and form afour -piece.

2000 BBF is the debut album, licensedfrom the American Scotti Bros label byPhonogram France, which also holds theUS release rights. It's a collection of songsbreathing an early '80s mood. The singlePain And Pride combines "Liverpool anno1982"-Teardrop Explodes in particu-

lar-with U2's the Edge guitar sound,which also pops up on the track NaturalSound. Simple Minds drums enhanceCan't Go On and a Diddley beat is thefoundation of In The End.

The explicit announcement on the art-work that Hallyday is present shows thatthere's not 100% certainty that the bandname itself will sell the product. Added tothe fact that the music is quite different tohis other work-not middle of the road,but a bit left field pop rock-marketing-wise it's not the easiest album.

All international publicity and market-ing is handled by former InternationalRescue partner Nadja Severa. From herLondon -based office she says, "It will notbe a difficult, but a slow process.Basically, it's a matter of rebuilding his

image, from the 'pretty boy' to somethingharder. The UK is the only country wherethe album is not out yet. All the rest is verycommitted, as they're all spending moneyon promotion. By showcases we provemedia that David has changed. He hasalready been named 'bohemian,' so we'reon the right track."

Signed to Scotti Bros/PhonogramFrance. Publisher: Maritza/Ne Ne New album: 2000 BBF released onMarch 14. New single: Pain And Pride released onFebruary 14. Recorded at Santa MonicaSound/California. Producer: Paul Duffy.

tional exploitation manager Akkie Groen."Extended to a five -piece again, thereclearly is more of a band feel to theirmusic. The material is more accessible thanon the last [rather experimental] album. Itwill surely appeal to a wider audience, butdon't underestimate their fan -base, whichhas always been good."

Signed to Sony Music Holland. Management: Aad Link/The Hague New album (and single): dA dA dA moreor less simultaneously released acrossEurope on April 5. The UK follows in July. Recorded at Wisseloord/Hilversum. Producer: The Nits. Concerts: A Dutch tour will start onApril 23. Special showcases will take placein Brussels and Paris (June 11 and 16),after which the band will embark on thesummer festival circuit. A proper Euro touris slated for the fall.

1000 FACES OF NYNVulture - Dome/S.P.V. (Gerniany)

PRODUCER: S. Schmidt/O. Kramer

Here is one of those slow andsteadily building ambient hou-sers, which are very popular now-adays in clubs all over Europe.What sets this instrumental apartfrom the standard dance fare is itsstrong melody, enhanced by asparce and innovative arrange-ment. Contact Delroy Rennallsat tel: (+49) 511.87090; fax:511.870 9181-3.

BREAKDOWN FEAT. EGGFeeling The Love - Knockout (US)

PRODUCER: Breakdown

This smooth but powerful deep -house cut is not only likely topack a lot of dancefloors every-where, but thanks to a strongmelody and an absolutely irre-sistible chorus it could do well onspecialized and EHR formats aswell. Contact Benjamin Kosmanat tel: (+I) 212.473 8284; fax:212.473 8289.

GOING PUBLICAncient Heart - Gaga Goodies (CD) (Finland)

PRODUCER: M. Engberg/Going Public

Although this band hails fromFinland, they sound a great deal

like such antipodean outfits as theChurch and the latter day Saints.Like the aforementioned, they arequite adept at fusing psychedeli-ca, rock and wild experimentationtogether and still come up with avery listenable and coherent re-sult. This ability also extends totheir ballads, which are bothstrange and sensitive. ContactKari Helenius at tel: (+358)31.129 500; fax: 31.133732.

ROBERT JANOWSKICo Moge Dac - Pomaton (CD) (Poland)

PRODUCER: Robert Janowski

This singer/songwriter can per-haps best be described as a Polishlanguage counterpart to ZuccheroFornaciari, with whom he sharesa preference for '70s rock ar-rangements. In general the back-

ing is rather sparse, which placeshis vocals and the songs them-selves in the forefront. ContactPiotr Kabaj at tel/fax: (+48)22.427 648.

KONTESSADoes Anybody Love This Girl? - Bol le Avenue/Tempo (Belgium)

PRODUCER: S. Ramaekers/D. Sas

The debut single of this Croatian/Italian chanteuse works reallywell thanks to a lively productionjob and a chorus that just wormsits way into your brain and staysthere. It should do well in theclubs as well. Contact GuidoJanssens at tel: (+32) 9.2202121; fax: 9.220 8100.

MODEST ATTRACTIONThe Truth In Your Face - Viva (CD) (Sweden)

PRODUCER: Mick Nordstrom

Straightforward, no frills hard -rock is hardly fashionable nowa-days, but these diehards, whowere hardly born when the genrefirst became popular did a greatjob here. They execute this batchof truly strong songs with suchskill and self confidence that thenet result is downright impres-sive. Contact Leif Cederfjord attel: (+46) 8.926 860; fax: 8.964080.

PRODUCER: M. Oko Drammeh

Fronted by Paps Touray, who isconsidered a living legend in hisnative Gambia and (co) -wrote allthe material here, this band deftlyworks its way through this

impressive collection of 15 songs.Both the traditional and some-what more Western influencedmaterial poses no problem forthem because they are equallyadept at both. Contact tel: (+1)213.856 0039; fax: 213.656 6490.

DJ's Delite - Tom BlombergNOS/Hilversum producer TomBlomberg stuck with the ladiesthis week. His favourites includeYou Gotta Be by Des'ree, AlisonMoyet's WhisperingYour Name, theBeautiful South's GoodAs Gold and the newPretenders effort I'llStand By You in par-ticular. "This songreminds me of Hymn ToHer, but it is driven by arather prominent pianoand a lot of reverb wasused on Chrissie Hynde's voice.Personally, I'm not particularlycrazy about that, because she hasa really strong and biting rockvoice that cuts through easilyanyway." It seems to me thatthere are steadily more femalesingers emerging nowadays.Good EHR programmers arecashing in on this by making sure

that one out of every four recordsat least is by a female singer. Theadvantage of this is that it bright-ens up your programming consid-

erably. If you stick withmale vocalists, you runthe risk of ending upwith a rather dull andgrey programme. Thetrick in programming ingeneral is to challengethe audience by playingnot overly obvious butstill familiar olderrecords and non single

cuts of recent albums as well asthe currents. This way you grabthe listeners' attention withoutalienating him. All this makesEHR programming more diffi-cult, but also much more reward-ing than dealing with morerestricted formats, such as(Classic) Rock, Dance andAlternative for instance."

Breakin' & Entering EUROCHART A/Z IndexesM&M is glad to announce that thisweek's Hot 100 features the first Frenchchart contribution since its demise thebeginning of September last year. Com-piled by IFOP/Tite-Live and commis-sioned by SNEP/UPFI it features 100positions on a weekly basis. As a result,the Eurochart reports a new lease on lifefor several ex -hits, that still feature highin the French chart. Apart from theresulting re-entries, French artists fea-ture prominently in the Hot 100 again.Most notable among them are the cur-rent French number 1 I Am whose JeDanse Le Mia (Delabel/ Virgin) is thisweek's third -highest entry at number 21followed on number 23 by Axelle Red'sSensualite (Virgin). If all goes as

planned, the new French albums chartwill be made available next month.

Amends must be made for lastweek's erroneous statement that Yes arestill on the Atlantic label; their 1991(re -)Union album came out on Arista.Now signed to Victory, the new albumTalk boasts the same line-up thatrecorded 1983's 9-0-1-2-5 (Atlantic).

While Yes climb to number 49 intheir second week, their effort is some-what overshadowed by the impact ofanother symphonic rock giant of de-cades past. Pink Floyd's The DivisionBell (EMI) rings loud and clear whileentering the Top 100 Albums at number2-this year's highest album entry sofar. Although starting their career withthe hit -single Arnold Layne (UK peaknumber 20)-recorded in '67 beforesigning to EMI-followed by See EmilyPlay (UK peak 6), Pink Floyd willprobably not be regarded a singles bandnor their music as commercial. Never-theless, they have some astonishingchart -feats up their sleeves. Their peren-nial 1973 classic Dark Side Of TheMoon spent 15 years in the BillboardTop 200 Albums, peaking at number 1.The album's UK chart run of a mere 294

weeks, peaking at number 2, pales bycomparison. Two years later theytopped both the US and UK albumcharts with Wish You Were Here. Their1979 album The Wall hit UK at number3 and topped the US albums chart for15 weeks. The single Another Brick InThe Wall (Part ID taken from the albumand their biggest hit single to date, goeson to top the UK singles chart followedby the US a month later. Pink Floyd'sprevious studio album A MomentaryLapse Of Reason-released in Septem-ber '87-peaks at UK and US number 3making it to number 19 in the EuropeanTop 100 Albums running up a total of59 weeks.

Delicate Sound Of Thunder, the liverecording of their subsequent world tourand viewed by over 10 million people,hits US and UK number 11 and peaks atnumber 4 in the Eurochart while chart-ing for 39 weeks. Roger Waters-wholeft the band in 1983-stages a live per-formance of The Wall at the site of theBerlin Wall in Potzdammer Platz,Berlin on the July 21 1990. The line-upfeatured Bryan Adams, The Band,The Hooters, Cyndi Lauper, VanMorrison, Sinead O'Connor and TheScorpions but no other members fromthe original line up. The event resultedin renewed public interest in the origi-nal recording of The Wall which enteredthe Eurochart for a total of nine weekspeaking at number 24.

Probably the most written aboutartist in the past weeks is The Symbol-formerly of Prince -ley inclination-whose single The Most Beautiful Girl InThe Wold finally makes its mark, enter-ing the Hot 100 at number 15. All thisin spite of the initial controversy sur-rounding the single's scattered licensingand distribution deals which eliminatedthe involvement by what is still the

artist's official record company.Warner Brothers. Mark Spencer

Top 40 Airplay Monitor Country Airplay Monitor R&B Airplay Monitor Rock Airplay Monitor

The only radio publications based exclusively on electronically monitored airplay from Broadcast Data Systems

As part of the Billboard Music Group, and sister publications to Music & Media

the Airplay Monitors give you real airplay information on the U.S music scene never before available!

Electronically monitored airplay in all major U.S. markets, 24 hours a day, seven days a week,captures the real numbers and tells you what's really happening in radio each week.

Now you can stay on top of the fast-moving U.S music scene with reality -based charts and actual monitored playlists from leadingradio stations, instead of questionable playlists found in other American trades-

giving you a true barometer of a song's popularity.

Airplay is monitored by playing each song into the BDS main computer and creating anaudio fingerprint of the song. These patterns are sent by wire to remote monitors around the country. At each monitor site stereo

tuners listen to local stations around the clock, recognizing and logging all songs encoded in the monitor's memory,resulting in the information you see printed each week in the four Airplay Monitors.

Each issue of Top 40 Airplay Monitor, Country Airplay Monitor, R&B Airplay Monitor and Rock Airplay Monitor is jammeda complete package of airplay information unavailable anywhere else...

Engel is well aware of the feel-ings of Hamburg's commercialstations towards N -Joy.

"N -Joy isn't verypopular among its commercialcompetitors."

that he remainsconfident that a deal could still bedone with FNAC. "I am opti-mistic. I think the grounds aremore favourable today than a fewmonths ago. We'll see that in acouple of months. Nevertheless,our goal remains to cover the

largest number of stores, but itwill be done progressively."

Another aspect which tookmore time to set up was themedia exposure of the charts.Paire wanted first to deal with aTV station and then with a radiostation. He now says that due tolasting negotiations with pubcast-er France 2, he will revert thisorder. He says that there are tworadio contenders so far, the

Europe 1 Group and NRJ. Says

Paire, "There is an urgency togive visibility to these charts."

Last but not least, independentproducers organisation UPFI has

not backed the charts, but Pairesays discussions are "going on."SNEP and UPFI are due to set upa joint company that will operatethe charts and sell it to media out-lets. Comments Paire, "There isstill a debate between us, but Ithink we're getting closer on

many aspects. There is no doubtin my opinion that we can worktogether."

Capital Radio(continued front page 1)

US$47.9 million). SouthernRadio operates seven stations insouth-east England.

Capital says expanding itsoperation from London into theadjoining areas will enable it tomaximise advertising revenues bymarketing the UK's most prosper-ous regions as one unit. Capitalalready has a pre-eminent posi-tion in one of those regions; itstwo stations in London, EHRCapital FM and Capital Goldon AM dominate their respectivemarkets. Latest figures fromindustry research organisationRAJAR show the stations had25% of all adult listening in Lon-don in the final quarter of lastyear.

In addition, Capital runs EHRBRMB FM and gold -formattedXtra AM in Birmingham and hasminority stakes in seven otherILR groups, including GWR,Metro Radio and ChilternRadio. Capital also has a holdingin companies supplying news,programming and marketing tothe ILR network.

A spokesperson for Capitalsays, "Radio advertising revenues

have shown strong growth overthe last nine months and it is pre-dicted that commercial radio overthe next few years will win anincreasing share of total displayadvertising expenditure. Theboard of Capital Radio believesthat widening the Capital RadioGroup's operations to the south-ern region will enhance its abilityto benefit from this continuingupturn.

"The London and southeastregions represent the highestadvertising spend per head ofpopulation. To date within theradio industry, these two regionshave not been actively marketedtogether."

Southern Radio owns EHRPower FM, ACE Ocean FM and

ACE South Coast Radio inHampshire, ACE Southern FM

Staff at the company havebeen told that jobs are secure andthat Capital will not interfere withthe stations' programming.

Meanwhile, East AngliaRadio has made a bid for itsneighbour Mid Anglia Radio.Russ Stewart, chief executive ofEast Anglia Radio, has written toMid Anglia offering £1 millionfor the group. Mid Anglia runsfour stations in Cambridge, Peter-borough and King's Lynn.

Joy's launch. We're going to waitfor two months and see how theformat develops before we takesteps."

OK Radio MD Frank Otto,however, seems more relaxedabout N -Joy's debut. "I am actual-ly calmed by hearing N -Joy's for-mat, as everyone thought it wouldbe a big threat to OK Radio withits target group of 14-19 years. Itsounds more like soft ACE mixedwith EHR. As long as N -Joy stayslike this, OK Radio won't have tochange its programming at all."

Otto says that the moneybehind N -Joy is very evident inHamburg and northern Germanyat the moment, with posters all

over the city and on the under-ground and trailers on TV. "It's thebiggest radio advertising cam-paign there's been," says Otto,referring to trailer adverts on thestate broadcaster's TV stationNorddeutsche Fernsehen R3."The trailer shows a boy sayingthat N -Joy is better than OKRadio. We would never sink tosuch low methods of advertising."

Otto adds that N -Joy's pres-ence on the Hamburg market willbe damaging to OK Radio andother private stations, though hesays it is too early to say just how.

Head of N -Joy Torsten Engelcounters, however, that the stationis targeted to 15-19 year oldsthroughout northern Germany andnot just Hamburg. "N -Joy Radiois not specialised in the Hamburg

market. Our format is for listenersall over northern Germany. Wehaven't any ambition to becomeHamburg's party station."

Engel is well aware of the feel-ings of Hamburg's commercialstations towards N -Joy. He is cur-rently avoiding interviews for fearof bad press, saying that in north-ern Germany around 60% of printmedia is linked to commercialradio stations. "N -Joy isn't verypopular among its commercialcompetitors."

Engel declines to give moreexact details of N -Joys format atpresstime. All he would reveal isthat their format is "young andfast" and that it "features everynew artist who fits the targetgroup."

French Charts(continued from page 1)

some time. It will also enhancethe credibility of the charts.France will regain a spot it

deserves due to the size of itsmarket and to the importance ofits repertoire."

Adds M&M editor -in -chiefMachgiel Bakker, "The additionof French sales information givesa more realistic view of the Euro-pean marketplace as representedin our Eurochart Hot 100 Sin-gles and Eurochart Top 100Albums charts. The market hasits own peculiarities that need tobe reflected and communicatedon a European level. Think of theunique success that the Frenchmarket recently enjoyed with TheBreeders' single Cannonball. Theabsence of a national chart com-pletely obscures such highlights.I'm happy to have the chart backand I'm looking forward to soonwelcome the return of the albumcharts too."

So far, only the singles chartshave been considered as "reliableenough" to be made public. Thealbum charts "still need someadjustments to become fully reli-able," says Paire. He expectsthem to be operational within thenext weeks.

The charts use a panel of 100stores, which changes periodical-ly to prevent hyping. It is

believed to be "representative ofthe structure of French retailsales," even though the 40 -pluschain FNAC has decided not tomake its sales data available.Paire says the absence of FNACaffects the album charts morethan the singles charts, although itcan be balanced by statisticaltechniques.

Paire adds that he remainsconfident that a deal could still bedone with FNAC. "I am opti-mistic. I think the grounds aremore favourable today than a fewmonths ago. We'll see that in acouple of months. Nevertheless,our goal remains to cover the

largest number of stores, but itwill be done progressively."

Another aspect which tookmore time to set up was themedia exposure of the charts.Paire wanted first to deal with aTV station and then with a radiostation. He now says that due tolasting negociations with pubcast-er France 2, he will revert thisorder. He says that there are tworadio contenders so far, theEurope 1 Group and NRJ. SaysPaire, "There is an urgency togive visibility to these charts."

Last but not least, independentproducers organisation UPFI hasnot backed the charts, but Pairesays discussions are "going on."SNEP and UPFI are due to set upa joint company that will operatethe media out-lets. Comments Paire, "There isstill a debate between us, but Ithink we're getting closer onmany aspects. There is no doubtin my opinion that we can worktogether."

Capital Radio(continued from page 1)

US$47.9 million). SouthernRadio operates seven stations insouth-east England.

Capital says expanding itsoperation from London into theadjoining areas will enable it tomaximise advertising revenues bymarketing the UK's most prosper-ous regions as one unit. Capitalalready has a pre-eminent posi-tion in one of those regions; itstwo stations in London, EHRCapital FM and Capital Goldon AM dominate their respectivemarkets. Latest figures fromindustry research organisationRAJAR show the stations had25% of all adult listening in Lon-don in the final quarter of lastyear.

In addition, Capital runs EHRBRMB FM and gold -formattedXtra AM in Birmingham and hasminority stakes in seven otherILR groups, including GWR,Metro Radio and ChilternRadio. Capital also has a holdingin companies supplying news,programming and marketing tothe ILR network.

A spokesperson for Capitalsays, "Radio advertising revenues

have shown strong growth overthe last nine months and it is pre-dicted that commercial radio overthe next few years will win anincreasing share of total displayadvertising expenditure. Theboard of Capital Radio believesthat widening the Capital RadioGroup's operations to the south-ern region will enhance its abilityto benefit from this continuingupturn.

"The London and southeastregions represent the highestadvertising spend per head ofpopulation. To date within theradio industry, these two regionshave not been actively marketedtogether."

Southern Radio owns EHRPower FM, ACE Ocean FM andACE South Coast Radio in

Hampshire, ACE Southern FM

and ACE South Coast Radio inSussex, and EHR Invicta FMand gold Invicta Supergold inKent. The group made a pre-taxprofit of £956.000 in the fiscalyear ended September 30 on aturnover of £8.6 million.

Staff at the company havebeen told that jobs are secure andthat Capital will not interfere withthe stations' programming.

Meanwhile, East AngliaRadio has made a bid for itsneighbour Mid Anglia Radio.Russ Stewart, chief executive ofEast Anglia Radio, has written toMid Anglia offering £1 millionfor the group. Mid Anglia runsfour stations in Cambridge, Peter-borough and King's Lynn.

EMI


open to misinterpretation with previouscampaigns. "With the first and secondalbums [Roachford and Get Ready, respec-tively] we didn't have a real image, and theartwork was not distinctive enough intelling who or what Roachford is-a bandor a person. For the new album [singer]Andrew [Roachford] has trimmed the bandback from six to four and it is now proba-bly more in line with the first album andhis songwriting roots."

But, emphasises Phillips, despiteAndrew Roachford's dominant role assongwriter, singer, producer and keyboardplayer, Roachford remains a band. "Themost important thing is to get the name outand for people to catch the music. A lot ofpeople remember songs like Cuddly Toyand Family Man, but they never knew whoRoachford was. It's time to change that."

The band has already played dates inLondon, Milan and Stockholm, and furthershowcases are set up later this month inZurich (April 14), Madrid (15), Amsterdam(25) and Hamburg (26), followed by a UKtour from May 3-27. In addition, TVappearances are scheduled for France andGermany in conjunction with further pro-motional work.

For the Milan showcase, Sony MusicItaly organised a half-hour live link -upwith EHR web 101 Network, where seniormarketing manager Graziano Ostuni saysthe vibes were good. "Here was a real soulband performing with not too much tech-nology around. Although Roachford hasbeen away for a while, there was immedi-ate feedback from the media."

With airplay building-Roachford iscurrently number 6 in M&M's RegionalAirplay rankings for the South (see page27)-and a recently broadcast semi -liveperformance on Italy's national video chan-nel Videomusic, Ostuni is confident aboutgetting the band back in peoples minds.

101 Network head of music StefanoCarboni programmes the Only To Be WithYou single four times a day (A rotation)and says Roachford's style of music fits thestation well. "I like their mix of rock andsoul. We also have that element of contam-ination on our station-pop, R&B anddance."

Like Italy, airplay is also building inGermany. With 109 plays registered byMedia Control last week and the video on

rotation on Viva, Sony Music Germanyproduct manager Kim Schafer is expectinga chart entry soon. Schafer has set up anextensive POS-campaign in conjunctionwith retail outlet WOM, while the bandwill be interviewed by various radio sta-tions on April 11-13.

A great supporter of Roachford is EHROK Radio/Hamburg head of music TinaBusch. "It's such a wonderful song. I lovethe harmony vocals and arrangements.Cuddly Toy is one of my old-timefavourites. We're very close to him."

Only To Be With You is OK Radio's"Hittip," which guarantees a stationendorsement with each play. "We tell ourlisteners that this is a great record and thatthey should go out and see his Hamburgshow." The station just missed the chanceto officially promote the Hamburg date,now handled by pubcaster NDR, who willalso record and broadcast the show.

In Holland, the song has just entered the"Tipparade," and product manager Paul deJong thinks the time is ripe for a return ofRoachford. "Radio reacts very well andwe're expecting further waves with theshow in Amsterdam." Billed as "Three OfA Kind," Roachford will appear togetherwith other Sony artists Des'ree and MistyOldland.

In conjunction with the show, de Jonghas produced special give-away cassetteswith two tracks of each artist. An in-storeCD is also available.

Another territory where Roachford ispicking up good radio response is Sweden.Playlisted on EHR, ACE and Rock sta-tions, it is this week's "Most Added" recordin the Northern region. On rock -formattedZ-102/Stockholm, the song has just beenadded to the A rotation, amounting to twoplays a day. Head of music Peter Franckcalls the song P"radio friendly," adding,"You have to hear it a few times before youlike it. It's a nice song with a good littlehook."

At EHR Radio City/Stockholm, musicdirector Niklas Ehring programmes thetune in B -rotation (one play a day). "Thepeople may remember the tune Cuddly Toy,but don't associate it with him. In general,people here do not seem to know who heis, but that may change with the new albumand tour."

At presstime, both Swedish program-mers were to attend the April 5 showcasein Stockholm's "Gino" club.

OFF THE RECORD

VERDICT ON MONTMARTRE EXPECTED MAY 18: A Paris commercial courtwill decide on May 18 who, between NRJ and RMC, will be authorised to take overgold station Radio Montmartre. The court wanted to take the time to review the differntproposals submitted by bidders.

PERONI'S PLANS: Look for Alex Peroni, EHR RU 102.5 Hit Radio's new PD, tomake a series of programming changes and a shift in format. Off The Record hears thatGianni Simioli, PD at EHR Radio Kiss Kiss, has joined to station as a presenter. Otherchanges are also planned.

FINNISH DANCE AWARDS A GO?: Discopress MD and jack-of-all-trades PenttiTeravainen is reportedly busy working on the first Finnish Disco & Dance Music Gala.He wants to televise the event and feature categories that include awards for best domes-tic and international talent. Teravainen is said to have had initial talks with local recordcompanies to secure their interest.

BIDDERS QUEUE UP FOR MID ANGLIA: GWR and INR company Classic FMare believed to be interested in the Mid Anglia Radio Group, which runs stations inCambridge, Peterborough and Kings Lynn. The bidders line-up with neighbour EastAnglia Radio, which has also made a bid for the group.

Take That Take OffThe top 5 segment of this week's EHR Top 40 is full ofaction, with virtually all entries going up in points andsubsequently earning a bullet. Only Bruce Springsteen,who adds his fifth consecutive week to his current chartreign, seems to have reached saturation point.

Prince-chart-wise referred to as Symbol as of thisissue-still manages to attract 14 adds (mainly silver andbronze stations). After two consecutive weeks of earning thebiggest chart -point gain, the enigmatic artist jumps to thechart's third position, pushing Mariah Carey back oneplace, although she, too, is still augmenting her roster. Pleasenote that The Most Beautiful Girl has finally entered theEurochart Hot 100 (at number 15; see page 13).

The most important stir at the top 5 front, however, iscaused by the incorporation of Madonna, whose I'llRemember-following last week's highest new entry andlargest number of adds-is granted this week's RadioActive award, highlighting the largest point gainachieved by a song already charting. With 20 additionsand four upward conversions (e.g. from medium toheavy rotation) at her side, the American pop diva hasaccumulated a roster of 79 stations, spread out over 20territories, with the Czech Republic (100% of M&M'sreporters), the UK (85%) and Denmark (61%) as herstrongest support base.

The highest new entry in the chart, straight at number16, is claimed by British teen act Take That, withEverything Changes, the fifth single and title track fromtheir second album. Take That enjoyed four EHR hitsbefore, all which came from that second album and allmade it to the top 20; 1993's Pray and Relight My Firereached the highest, peaking at number 5 and number 3,respectively.

The group's current single also qualifies as MostAdded leader, as no less than 26 stations have reported itfor the first time this week, producing a 49% spreadingangle. Most of these adds occur in Germany, Denmark,Belgium and Holland. Everything Changes scores its bestpenetration ratios in the UK (80%), Holland (67%) andSwitzerland (50%). Denmark (39%), Germany (38%)and Belgium (29%) form the second league. Incidentally,the record is also found on the rotation lists of influentialSpanish and Italian networks like Cadena 40Principales/Madrid and 101 Network/Milan.

Second highest new entry is seized by another UK act,Des'ree, whose You Gotta Be, the taster for her secondalbum (I Ain't Movin', due for release on May 9), kicksoff at number 21 with a 42 -station wide roster. Thesinger's high entry is especially boosted by the substantialairplay that her new single meets in Italy, where 60% ofour reporters have it on rotation. The UK and Sweden(both 50%), Norway (37%) and Denmark (33%) havealso joined in on a significant scale. Des'ree had oneEHR hit before, 1992's Feel So High, which peaked atnumber 16. Pieter Kops

Six broadcasters inthe West Centralregion (Dutch -speaking area) areresponsible for thisweek's sole newentry in theBorder Breakerschart at number 25.It goes to Germanduo Lucilectric,whose novelty sin-gle Madchen is co -produced by

Annette Humpe-once member of Dof-whoalso scored in Holland with a similarly eccentricsong Codo that went to number 1 in 1983.

Signed to Sing Sing/Hansa and released onBMG Ariola for the Dutch market, Lucilectricstarted their journey of success in Holland,before making impact in their home market (seeM&M, "GSA Today", March 26).

At this stage, Madchen is on rotation at allDutch pubcasters as well as on private EHR sta-tion Radio 538/Bussum, solidifying Holland'sreputation of being sensitive to left -of -centreGerman -language product. In Belgium, HIT -FM106.1/ Hasselt is giving it a good spin too.

London -based, multi -ethnic station SpectrumInternational Radio has also put the song onrotation, as well as MTV Europe/London, whohave the song on "Prime Breakout" rotation.

Pieter Kops

The Regional Crossover charts track the cross -regional movement of

product. The Border Breakers chart ranks the 25 most successfulContinental European records making airplay impact outside their -region of signing (airplay achieved in the original region is excludedfrom the calculations).

The second chart, Channel Crossovers, registers the airplay pene-tration of UK -signed artists in mainland Europe, while the third Top25, the Atlantic Crossover chart, ranks the most successful NorthAmerican artists according to regional airplay impact in Europe.

All three charts are non -format specific. "Region Of Origin" is notnecessarily an indication of where the artist comes from but, more sig-nificantly, where he/she is signed. An increasing number of nationalartists are signed to "foreign" labels and M&M wants to acknowledgethe crossover impact of such deals.

For each record, "Crossover Regions" are listed in order of first-time airplay appearance.

Why, Sissel?Why did you do it, Sissel?

With dozens of record companies in Norway, why did you choose us?

We lived a life of comfort until the beginning of the year.

We left the office early after arriving late.

Week -ends were Thursday afternoons till Monday lunch-time.

We couldn't even spell words like stress, pressure,

deadlines or demands.

Then you, all of a sudden!

You and that voice of yours,

With world-wide love from Lillehammer.

That's when our troubles really began:

Telephones ringing off the hook!

Telefaxes, questions, requests, overtime, nights

and week -ends of hard labour.

Television, radio, press, headoffice, visitors, not to speak

of your management.

They all started to bother us.

And we're even supposed to say thanks for the business.

Why, oh why, did you enter international charts while topping

those at home - resulting in more phone calls?

And still, you say smiling, that this is just the beginning?

Stop that Fire In Your Heart! We're the ones who get burned!

Well, thinking it over, .

perhaps we should say congratulations, too.,You seem to be doing fine, after all.

SisselGift

MCA Music Entertainment NV/SA in Belgium will be a young, dynamic and different company. Differentbecause we will try to keep in close contact with what's really happening : at retail, in clubs, in secondary

schools, in small and big venues, in the media, in fashion and with regard to lifestyle, MCA will try to be in theright spot at the right time.

How do we want to achieve this? By inventive exploitation of our vast back catalogue. By buildinga greaterawareness of our less established artists, and by creative marketing and sustained promotion.Koen van Bockstal General Manager,Belgium

MCA France opened its doors on April 1st and we welcome the challenge of developing a companyequipped to tackle the French market in 1994 and beyond - with sufficient flexibility to adapt to the indus-try's evolution in the coming years.

In order to meet these goals, MCA France will be applying 4 different strategies:1) A broadening of our sales base 3) Quality strategic marketing

4) A sales promotion structure2) A multimedia promotion team

We are determined to reinforce the MCA image through the continued development of our artists and theirmusic and by applying the best techniques available in all fields related to our industry such as sponsor-ship, synchronisation, and new technologies. MCA France will also be signing French artists and we willapply a progressive but consistent A&R approach to local acts.Gerard Woog General Manager, France

MCA begins its operation in a market where, in the past years, there have been some major changes, forinstance, the consumers are far more selective, and there is an increasing number of very professional anddemanding press, radio and TV media. However, compared to other record companies which have sub-stantial overheads, MCA faces this increasingly selective market with a compact, focused structure.The combined MCA and BMG organisation and the extraordinary repertoire generated by Geffen, GRP andMCA, will undoubtedly enable us to contribute to the growth of the Italian music market.Piero La Falce Managing Director, Italy

The start of MCA Music Entertainment B.V. in the Netherlands is a very exciting event and, as a result, we

were able to attract highly experienced people from the record industry.

It is our aim to maximise the sales of our bestsellers, to break new promising acts from MCA, Geffen and

GRP and to exploit the rich catalogue from these labels via our special marketing department.

Our marketing strategy will be to work closely with the Dutch dealers as we feel that partnerships between

retail and industry are vital to successful campaigns.

We might be the smallest of the majors but we have an enormous potential.Kees van Weijen Managing Director, The Netherlands

'

It has been a great experience to run the MCA & Geffen labels as marketing manager during the BMG license

agreement. Together we have been able to break acts like Cher, Aerosmith, Nirvana and Guns & Roses.

But now it's time to expand and grow. MCA Music Entertainment, S.A. will have 17 young, talented, mar-

keting and promotion oriented people, who, with the help and enthusiasm of our BMG sales partners, will

be able to continue developing at least three new international artists per year, Counting Crows andIndecent Obsession being two promising candidates for 1994. Also, ideally, I would like to see catalogue

sales increase to about 30%. And last but not least, local A & R activities will start in 1995. We are not going

to build a major roster of unknown acts, but if attractive artists become available, we'll make the necessary

moves. However, we're under no self-induced pressure to build a roster during the initial years.

Whereas most Swedish record companies are based in an industrial suburb of Stockholm, the new offices of

MCA Sweden are in the residential centre of Stockholm. Apart from the location being more pleasant for all

concerned, we believe that this will give us easier access to media, publishers and the artistic community.

The company is fully staffed, equipped and ready to go!

I am extremely fortunate to have on my staff such "young veterans" as Hans Andersson, who was MCA's mar-

keting Manager at BMG Sweden for the past three years, Stefan Andreasson, formerly Polygram Marketing

Manager, and Martin lngestrom, who moves over from MCA Publishing.

Our initial priority albums are "Mellow Gold", Becks debut album, "Rhythm, Country & Blues", Dr John"Television", Hooters "Live" and Beverly Hills Cop 3.
