Hodgson Solo LP Builds On Supertramp SuccessFormer Supertramp writer/vocalist Roger Hodgson recently hit the market withhis A&M solo debut, In The Eye Of The Storm. A&M pre -shipped 80,000units, which gave the release immediate gold status (50,000 units).Had A Dream (Sleeping With The Enemy)has been taken as the first single. Hodgsonwas presented with the A&M gold at a re-cent listening session held by the label.

Britain's Supertramp, in the course ofsuch LPs as the groundbreaking Crime OfThe Century and the more commerciallyvisible Breakfast In America, were a cultband before the public became enamored oftheir hypnotic, easily assimilable melodiesand state-of-the-art live performances. Hodg-son was responsible for much of the morepopular Supertramp material, includingDreamer, The Logical Song, Hide In YourShell, and Give A Little Bit.

Supertramp first broke in Canada in theMontreal area, which spread across thecountry, a popularity explosion resulting inthem drawing an audience of over 100,000fans to concerts held at Toronto's CNEGrandstand.

Famous Last Words was the last LP toinclude Hodgson. The album sold well andyielded a hit single, It's Raining Again. How-ever, by that time (1983) Hodgson haddecided it was time to leave.

In a recent interview Hodgson spokecandidly with RPM about leaving Super -tramp, and the forces and circumstanceswhich led him to create a work bearingonly his name - In The Eye Of The Storm.

"There became artistic constraints work-ing within Supertramp," Hodgson recalls."We had 10 great years together, but thelast 4 or 5 weren't so great. Famous Last

Words represented another shot - a last shot.Rick (Davies) and I found it increasinglydifficult to settle creative differences withinthe group."

Supertramp was put together in 1969,using the title of a book - The Autobio-graphy Of A Supertramp - as their inspira-tion for a name. The story recounts thetravels of a man who turns his back on hisformal education. The band's first gig wasbefore 100,000 people at the Isle Of WightFestival in 1970.

Hodgson's current motivations are made

very clear in the course of the interview."I'm an idealist," he continues. "I acceptthe role of the artist in society; I thinkthere's a difference between an artist anda rock star - if you can keep that in per-spective, you'll be alright. An artist shouldbe a mirror of society."

Hodgson's and Supertramp's love affairwith Canada is obvious "There's alwaysbeen an incredible relationship with Canada,"he explains. "Canada was the first countryto latch onto Supertramp. In America, wewere perceived as a lighter band; BreakfastIn America was indicative of our successthere. Canadians will tend to mentionCrime Of The Century before Breakfast."

Hodgson wrote, arranged, and producedhis solo album, a project that took 7 monthsto complete at Unicorn Studios in NevadaCity.

The U.S. has had a fascination for Hodg-son, particularly California. "For me, Cali-fornia meant investigating new directions inmusic," he explains. "It was a place whereI could create my own world. After 25 yearsin England (where he was born) it wasrefreshing . . . liberating; you can be whatyou want to be there."

Hodgson concludes: "I'm happy withwhat we achieved as Supertramp, but thecontract with the audience remains a prioritywith me however. I'm going to revampsome songs like Fool's Overture, Dreamer,and Logical Song, and try to put on a reallyexciting show."

Although nothing has been finalized atpress time, a tour is most certainly immi-nent, and, given the acceptance of Hodg-son's music in the Supertramp format, itshould come as no surprise to Canadians tosee him in the flesh before very long. CW

CBS Records will market the 4th PlatinumBlonde single, Not In Love, essentially as anLP would be marketed, according to thelabel's Director of Pop Product, ArtGraham.

"Not In Love is starting to explode atradio," says Graham. "We'll be using aspecial merchandiser - holding approx-imately 15 singles - as well as a paper posterversion which will hold one. With the strategywe've got underway, my intent is to take NotIn Love to gold status."

Platinum Blonde's debut CBS LP -Standing In The Dark - has sold around125,000 units in Canada, and Grahambelieves that Top 5, or even Top 10 success atradio for the single could generate doubleplatinum status for the LP.

The photos used on the new single's picturesleeve have never been employed previously,and the label anticipates high interest basedon a potential 'collectible' value accorded thesingle by consumers. A new Platinum BlondeLP is pencilled in for a first quarter '85release date.

CBS is re-releasing the Bernie LaBargesingle, Overnight Sensation, in a re -mixedversion.

"I believe in this artist," says Graham."He's written some amazing songs, and theLp is really timeless - it's a record we couldhave released this year as well as last."

Tracks on the new LP are written by theduo of Adams and Jim Valiance. Vallancehas been writing with Adams on his past pro-jects including Adams' previous album CutsLike A Knife, which surpassed the tripleplatinum mark.

Forthcoming Adams LP contains Turner duet

A&M Records has set early September for the release of Bryan Adams' new album

Reckless, an LP produced by Bob Clear - mountain which highlights a duet with

Adams and soul star Tina Turner. The duet is not scheduled as the first single.

Instead, A&M is pulling the track Run To You as the initial single. The cut is expected

to be supported by a video. Tracks on the new LP are written by the

duo of Adams and Jim Vallance. Vallance has been writing with Adams on his past pro-

jects including Adams' previous album Cuts Like A Knife, which surpassed the triple

platinum mark. Included on Reckless is the song Heaven, a

track from Adams that was on the soundtrack, A Night In Heaven, but never issued as

a single. A&M is just shipping Run To You at press time.

Contributing to Reckless were Lou Gramm of Foreigner and Steve Smith of Journey.

Adams is not expected to tour until next year. Michael Godin, Vice -President of A&R for

A&M Records Canada described the forthcoming album as technically sparkling and

that the company will likely release four singles from the LP and a minimum of three.

There's also videos slated for the additional singles.

"Bob Clearmountain has done an excellent job," he said. "It sounds even better than

Bryan's last album. It's a fabulous progres- sion for him. His lyrics have really come

along. They're more mature and stronger."

with Blonde action features soap star/singer Michael Damian

and Valentine in a romantic vignette. Riff Raff - the new Dave Edmunds LP -

may provide the sales success CBS was looking for on Edmunds' last release, Informa-

tion. "For us, saleswise, every Dave Ed- munds record gets better," Graham points

out. "His profile is good, what with producing The Stray Cats and doing the movie (Give My Regards To Broad Street) with Paul Mc-

Cartney. I'm keeping very involved with this record."

The forthcoming Burton Cummings LP, Heart, will be sent to radio Oct. 15, and

released Oct. 28. Love Dream will be taken as the first single. This is Cummings' last record on his existing contract.

"This record represents something of a change in direction for Burton," Graham explains. "There's more guitar on it than on

previous ones, and some tracks are surprises. I think that it's the record that Burton always

wanted to do . . .

it contains a lot of Burton's influences as opposed to other influences."

Isolation, the new Toto LP, will be released in approximately three weeks, with

Stranger In Town to be taken as the first single. Other releases are imminent from Molly Hatchett, Flash And The Pan, and

Wham.

Singer Armes keeps busy in studio

Singer/composer/arranger Robert Armes - currently on release with his Cruise single

Jump To It - is keeping busy not only recording his own material, but in -studio, creating

jingles for accounts such as Labatt's, Firestone, Pepsi, and Coke.

Raised in Toronto, Armes studied piano at an early age, taking up the guitar in his teens.

He's been writing songs since 1968, with jingle writing keeping him busy for the last seven years.

The base for Armes' studio work has been Sounds Interchange, owned by Syd Kessler,

and located on Toronto's Adelaide Street. Working in close conjunction with Kessler

and a team of writers, Armes directs an operation which cranks out one produced

track per day.

His team includes people such as Tim Tickner (who co -produced Jump To It), Rolf Kemp, Mark Hukezalie, and Chris Ward -

best known as a VJ on the new 24 -hr. music channel, MuchMusic. Armes procures pro-

duct for over 55 ad agencies in Toronto. Claim To Fame, the single released prior to

Jump To It, was playlisted on over 200 stations nationally, as well as being released in

the U.S., Great Britain, France, and Scan- dinavia.

"I've tried to bring international -quality production values to my work," Armes ex-

plains. "A lot of the product you hear just doesn't sound that good; the adult contemporary market has been a good market for

me. Because I virtually live in the studio, Cruise Records was a necessary thing

. . . a

production company which can expand and allow me to undertake a variety of projects."

Anne Murray captures 2 country music awards

After 14 years in a career that included 19

Junos and four Grammy Awards, Canadian country music singer Anne Murray has received a double victory in her first ever win

in the U.S. Country Music Awards. The surprised vocalist received two of some

of the highest awards capturing Best Single of the Year for the song A Little Good News, as

well as Best Album of the Year for the LP of the same title.

"I would have been more than happy and satisfied with just one," said the flattered

singer after receiving her second award. "But this is just wonderful."

In addition to Best Single and Album of the Year, Murray was also nominated in the

categories Female Vocalist of the Year and Song of the Year for A Little Good News, a

composition written by Rory Bourke, Charlie Black and Tommy Rocco. The LP surpassed the gold mark in

Canada. Capitol recently released her latest album Heart Over Mind. The cut Nobody Loves Me Like You Do is the first single.

Meanwhile, Murray's awards come right at the time when the vocalist starts a 22 -date

U.S. tour. Western Canadian dates are to follow.

As RPM went to press, word was received that Murray had left for London, England

where she was slated to tape her new CBC/CBS TV special. On Oct. 15, Murray

will make her debut concert performance at London's venerable Royal Albert Hall. She

has previously performed in London at The Palladium, The Victoria, The Talk of the

Town, and Her Majesty's Theatre. The special will be aired in early 1985.

Video action for Trade, Cockburn

True North recording act Rough Trade are currently in production for their video Sexual Outlaw, the first single to be taken from the

new 0 Tempora 0 Mores LP. Trevor Davies is producing the video clip with John La-

Pointe directing. A late October release is planned.

True North recording artist Bruce Cockburn is in production for the video ac-

companying his If I Had A Rocket Launcher tune from the Stealing Fire LP. The clip will

feautre photo stills shot on Cockburn's trip to Central America. The producer is Ron

Chapman, with direction by Alan Gough. Chapman and Gough collaborated on

Cockburn's last video.

Murray McLauchlan is still 'in the air' shooting his cross -Canada adventure for a CBC-TV Canada Day Special which will air

July 1, 1985. Tentatively entitled Timberline, the show will feature musical guests Levon

Helm (The Band), Gordon Lightfoot, Buffy Ste. Marie, and Ian Tyson, among others.

CORRECTION The 1984 Canadian Radio Commercials

Awards will be held Oct. 18 at the Sheraton Centre in Toronto, not Oct. 13 as previously

announced in RPM.

Success for Jannettaat SOPOT festCanadian singer Patti Jannetta - whose pro-duct is available in Canada on Janta Records- was acclaimed Favourite Artist of Musi-cians and presented with a special award atthe recent SOPOT Festival held in Poland.

As a result, the singer has been invited toreturn to Poland this fall to perform two con-certs. The trip also generated interest amongEuropean record labels.

A TV special produced covering thefestival will be televised throughout theSoviet Union.

A highlight of the trip for Jannetta was apresentation made to her by French singerCharles Aznavour, a special guest star at thefestival.

The other members of Mama's Boys arePat's brothers: John on bass and vocals, andTommy on drums.

Produced by Tsangarides at London's Bat-tery Studios, the LP contains nine tracks, oneof which is the Slade classic, Mama We're AllCrazee Now, a Noddy Holder/Jim Lea com-position. American programmers are findingthe band's version to be frequently morepopular than that of Quiet Riot.

Mama's Boys came to the attention of JiveRecords as the result of an appearance atEngland's Reading Festival. Fan response inthe U.K. has been positive, as exemplified byreaders of Sounds magazine voting the bandfifth best new band - behind acts such as BigCountry and The Alarm.

"Our family has been very supportive ofus," says John McManus, when asked aboutthe band's influences and early life. "westarted out playing traditional Irish musicand after seeing what Horslips (an Irish band)were doing, we decided to pick up on the elec-tric instruments. We started out opening forbands like Hawkwind (notable for once con-taining Motorhead's Lemmy) and WishboneAsh."

Youthful (19 to 23) Irish hard rock trio Mama's Boys are currently touring in support

of their self -titled debut LP on Quality Records. The trio had previously released

three independently produced records in the U.K.

Signed world-wide to Jive Records (ex- cluding U.K. and France) - Quality in Canada - the band is currently completing several support dates with Anthem recording

act Rush in the U.S. The LP has sold almost 10,000 units in Canada to date.

Mama's Boys recently broke from some U.S. dates to come to Toronto for a one-off

gig at The Gasworks. RPM spoke with the trio prior to their Toronto date.

In making the announcement, festivalsponsors Yamaha Music Foundationreported that the finalists have survivedmultiple screening based on vocal perfor-mance, originality of arrangement, suitabilityto the international market, hit potentiality,attractiveness and projection of the perform-ing artists, and lyrics.

According to contest officials, this year'sselection was difficult as a large number ofsong entries had Top 40 potential, howeverthe final lineup reflects current trends in theinternational popular music scene.

The Newton Family of Hungary, 1983 win-ners, will make an appearance on the first dayof the event, performing their song, TimeGoes By.

The long entry from Canada is PartyLights, written by composer/lyricist GeorgeDuke, and performed by singer France Joli.

Hardy heavily involvedwith film/TV scoringInternationally -acclaimed pianist/composerHagood Hardy, who turned a Salada Teacommercial into The Homecoming whichbecame a worldwide hit, has been activelypursuing another facet of his career, thatof film scoring, notably Canadian featurefilms and U.S. network TV movies.

Hardy heavily involved with film/TV scoring

Internationally -acclaimed pianist/composer Hagood Hardy, who turned a Salada Tea

commercial into The Homecoming which became a worldwide hit, has been actively

pursuing another facet of his career, that of film scoring, notably Canadian feature

films and U.S. network TV movies. The latter includes Anatomy Of A Seduction,

which has kept him in the Los Angeles area. Other projects have included Silent

94 FM adds Cancon feature

Thunder Bay's 94 FM has announced the newest addition to its Super Saturday lineup.

'94 FM's Featured Five' is a countdown of the top five Canadian LPs of the week. The

positioning of these LPs is determined by the 94 FM music committee based on local, as

well as national sales, listener requests, and information supplied by record companies

and national trade papers. 94 FM's Super Saturday lineup begins at 9 AM with Gary Owens Supertracks, the best

music from the '60s, '70s and '80s. Following at noon is The Dick Clark National Survey, a

countdown of the 30 'hottest' songs of the week. At 3 PM, 94 FM presents The Complete

History of The Rolling Stones; 94 FM Album Tracks, a countdown of the Top 10 LPs in

Thunder Bay, precedes the Featured 5, which begins at 9 PM. At 11 PM, 94 FM's New Music News brings the listener a look at what's new in music from around the world.

MuchMusic & Coca Cola pact major advertiser deal

Toronto: In an agreement worth over $3 million, Coca-Cola Ltd. will be the major

advertiser on the new 24 -hour, all -music video channel, MuchMusic.

New Canadian -produced commercials star CBS recording act Platinum Blonde, as well as Capitol recording artist DalBello.

Coca-Cola has also negotiated sponsor- ship of the Coke Video Countdown Show,

positioned as a flagship item in the network's programming.

Said John Brennan, VP of Marketing for Coca-Cola: "Coca-Cola is the leader by far

in the Canadian teen soft drink market; we have always advertised and promoted

heavily to this group and will continue to do so. Over the years, commercials for

Coca-Cola have become well-known for their memorable music, lyrics, and youthful

vitality. Our close identity with MuchMusic will help to reinforce this image."

Veteran Gary U.S. Bonds inked by Attic label Toronto: RPM has learned that Attic Records has signed American rock 'n' roll veteran Gary U.S. Bonds, perhaps best

remembered for his early '60s hit, Quarter To Three.

Bonds was most recently on the Capitol label. His career was revived with the help

of Bruce Springsteen who often performed Quarter To Three in his own concerts.

Springsteen guitarist Steve Van Zandt produced Bonds' comeback album, Dedi-

cation. Bonds next album and first for the

Attic label, is Standing In The Line Of Fire which was produced by Bonds and

Little Steven. The title track is expected to be taken as the first single for which a

video is also being made available. The new album is to ship near the end

of September with a Canadian tour to follow in October.

14 - RPM - October 20, 1984

INV LI II :11 1 JE111111

SAM HARRISSam Harris - Motown M-6103 PopIt a bit 'showbiz' on occasion, Harris sings as if hemeans it, and has the nerve - or good sense - to in-clude Over The Rainbow and the Holland/Dozier/Hol-land classic, You Keep Me Hangin' On. Key though, isSugar Don't Bite -a blue-eyed funk exercise destinedfor club play. Produced by Steve Bard and TonyPeluso. Various studio credits. With everyone else try-ing to sound like M.J., it's nice to know that Gary Glit-ter reached somebody.

ROUGH TRADEPop

O Tempora 0 Mores - True North TN -58An exciting - as well as commercially assimilable -entry from singer Carole Pope and guitarist KevanStaples (a.k.a. Rough Trade); the duo has written 10tunes displaying both scope and melodic invention.Staples' often underrated talent as a guitarist is mademore obvious this time out with Terry Brown's produc-tion giving the guitar tracks greater prominence -resulting in a hard -edged and frequently thrilling popfeel. Key here is Sexual Outlaw, taken as the firstsingle. The Pope/Staples writing tandem is no lesscryptic and obsessed with sexual politics here than onprevious records. Contributions from a number ofstudio regulars including Earl Seymour (Arrows), JohnAndersen, Terry Wilkins, and Pukka guitarist NellChapman. Dalbello contributes backing vocals.Recorded at 'The Slime Pit' in Toronto. Engineered byTerry Brown.

RED ROCKERS Po

Schizophrenic Circus- Columbia FC 39281This is the second Columbia release for Red Rockers,and, once you get past the nebulous antiwar imagery,a superbly executed pop record - swirling 12 -strings,booming acoustic fills, and excellent songwritingpaired with John Griffith's passionate vocals. Whilereplicating certain newer bands to some extent -R.E.M., The Alarm, Pretenders - Red Rockers havealso drawn on that copious body of pop and MBgenerated in the '60s to which so many young musi-

clans have turned for inspiration. Freedom Row is aperfect example - Clash -style vocal blocks and ac-cents combined with a sinewy organ more reminis-cent of the MGs than anything else. Also key here is astartlingly fresh version of the Barry McGuire hit, EveOf Destruction. At radio, with few exceptions (HueyLewis, Petty, Springsteen), this brand of vigorous,thoughtful pop is generally overlooked - treated asperipheral at best. CBS marketing savvy and radiopush should be able to do something with this record- one to be savoured and permitted to grow over thelong term. Produced by Rick Chertoff and William Wit-tman at the Record Plant in New York. No word yet ona tour.

ANN MORTIFEE Pop

Bright Encounter - Jabula 25 14121Another facet of singer Mortifee's abundant andvaried talent - this time in an unashamedly pop vein.Produced by Declan O'Doherty (Elton John, McCart-ney, Gerry Rafferty), the set contains 10 tracks, writtenor co -written by Moritfee. Key here is the title track,pleasantly convoluted lyrically, and indicative of oneof Canada's finest vocal talents. Given appropriate at-tention by the distributing label - WEA - this gemcould surprise quite a few people; even those more ac-customed to Mortifee's performances of gospel,cabaret, and other more 'trad' music forms. Recordedin Vancouver at Little Mountain and Blue Wave, and inToronto at ESP. Tasteful jacket. The voice says it all.Four parts Cancon except for Magdalene, which istwo parts.

INAL 51011011 PICTURE SOUNDTRACK

MUSIC PRODUCED BY SIETIE WONDER

THE WOMAN IN RED- Pop

Original Soundtrack Motown 6.6108(music produced by Stevie Wonder)No strong departure from the norm for Wonder here -a set that shouldn't alienate current fans while expos-ing the singer/multi-instrumentalist to a new au-dience. 'Pleasant' music dominated by synthesizersand Wonder's plaintive vocal stylings. Key is I JustCalled To Say I Loved You, a ballad which has crackedthe RPM Top 10, and gone to No. 1 on the Adult Con-temporary Chart. Produced by Wonder. Various studiocredits. Film's success an obvious asset at retail.

ROGER HODGSON- Pop

In The Eye Of The Storm A&M SP 5504Supertramp singer/writer Hodgson has laboured at

length to produce a detailed - if occasionally puzzl-ing - work that takes him away from the creative en-virons of Supertramp co-hort Rick Davies for the firsttime in 15 years. The result, while generally admirable,often is unable to present Hodgson effectively in aguise other than the introspective, troubled soul,desperately trying to make sense of the world aroundhim. Had A Dream (Sleeping With The Enemy) hasbeen taken as the first single, entering the RPM 100 atNo. 87, while the LP is just under platinum at presstime. Evidently a man of several talents, Hodgsonwrote, arranged, and produced the album at UnicornStudios, Nevada City. Very effective jacket art.

U2- Pop

The Unforgettable Fire - island ISL-1011This Eno/Lanois-produced set will probably confirm,once and for all, U2's status as THE '80s band for allsuppressed plebes; The Edge's guitar work, alongsideBono's agonized vocals, stand with the finest of '80spop -a sound that lyrically has few bands matchingit on the current scene. Key is the first single, Pride (InThe Name Of Love) -a stunning melange of echoingguitar riffs, pulsing percussion, and Bono's incessant-ly melancholic vocals. Recorded at Slane Cas-tle/Windmill Lane in Ireland. Irrespective of motive,some bands still care. Gorgeous jacket photo.

ANNE MURRAY Pop

Heart Over Mind - Capitol SJ 12363Recent sales successes - not to mention awardsfrom the industry - indicate an artist perhaps morepopular than at any other time in her career. The pro-gnosis for this set differs little - Jim Ed Norman'sproduction, suitable material, and a duet with DaveLoggins would appear to spell 'hit'. Nobody Loves MeLike You Do - the duet with Loggins - has beentaken as the first single, and is predictably high on thecharts. Some class studio people sat in for this one:pianist Doug Riley, guitarist Pepe Francis, and drum-mer Barry Keane. Various studio credits.

General PUBLIC

GENERAL PUBLIC Pop

All The Rage I.R.S. SP 70046English Beat principals Dave Wakeling and RankingRoger have put together a broadly -influenced,cohesive sound that avoids straying too close to hard;core reggae, or conversely, commercial jazz a la StyleCouncil. Key tracks are the peppy Where's The Line,and the roots -cum -synth General Public. Clash - at

one time - guitarist Mick Jones played on all tracks.Recorded and mixed by General Public, Colin Fairley,and Gavin Mackillop. Tour apparently set for later thisfall. An energetic set from two talented your musi-cians.

DAVE EDMUNDS -PopRiff Raff - Columbia - FC-39273-HEdmunds' relationship with producer/ELO-meister Jeff Lynne seems to have finallypaid off - here we have 10 solid trackspenned with an ear to '80s stylings andproduction techniques. The veteran Britishguitarist has laboured primarily on thefringe of the business for almost 20 years,popping up occasionally with a gem such asI Hear You Knocking (1971), or a slot in aband such as Rockplle. In the case of thelatter, disagreements with co-founder NickLowe left the band's recorded legacy atone - Seconds Of Pleasure. Lynne has ad-mittedly given Riff Raff more of a com-mercial feel than is preferable for someoneof Edmunds' inclinations, but we mustpresume that the pairing has been mutuallyacceptable, at least to press time. This is noRepeat When Necessary or Twangin', butthe feel is there, and the first single, Some-thing About You, has a real shot at CHRradio. Produced by Edmunds and JeffLynne. - KCW

All The Rage -

I.R.S. SP 70046 English Beat principals Dave Wakeling and Ranking

Roger have put together a broadly -influenced, cohesive sound that avoids straying too close to hard-

core reggae, or conversely, commercial jazz a la Style Council. Key tracks are the peppy Where's The Line,

and the roots -cum -synth General Public. Clash - at

one time - guitarist Mick Jones played on all tracks. Recorded and mixed by General Public, Colin Fairley,

and Gavin Mackillop. Tour apparently set for later this fall. An energetic set from two talented your musi-

cians.

Edmunds' relationship with producer/ELO- meister Jeff Lynne seems to have finally

paid off - here we have 10 solid tracks penned with an ear to '80s stylings and

production techniques. The veteran British guitarist has laboured primarily on the

fringe of the business for almost 20 years, popping up occasionally with a gem such as

I Hear You Knocking (1971), or a slot in a band such as Rockpile. In the case of the

latter, disagreements with co-founder Nick Lowe left the band's recorded legacy at

one - Seconds Of Pleasure. Lynne has ad- mittedly given Riff Raff more of a com-

mercial feel than is preferable for someone of Edmunds' inclinations, but we must

presume that the pairing has been mutually acceptable, at least to press time. This is no

Repeat When Necessary or Twangin', but the feel is there, and the first single, Some-

thing About You, has a real shot at CH R radio. Produced by Edmunds and Jeff

Lynne. - KCW

Heavy RCA promo for Rogers & Ross releases RCA Records Canada has introduced an

extensive national push to support the new Diana Ross Album, Swept Away and

Kenny Rogers' latest, What About Me. The Ross LP has been given a boost

with the 7" and 12" release of the title track, along with a video. The single, co -

written by Daryl Hall (Hall & Oates), and Sara Allen also features Hall on background

vocals. The single ships in a colourful picture sleeve. The album, which features a gatefold jacket, contains the current Iglesias/Ross

duet All Of You, the Lionel Richie pen- ning of Missing You which is dedicated to the late Marvin Gaye, plus Bob Dylan's

writing of Forever You. Contributing to the Ross LP were a

number of noted musicians including Jeff Beck, Michael and Randy Brecker, Nile

Rodgers, Daryl Hall and Lionel Richie. Ross produced 5 of the tracks.

The Rogers LP is a co -production by him and Canadian David Foster. The title

track, featuring a collaboration with Kim Carnes and James Ingram, has been taken as

the first single from this album, the 2nd for RCA. Rogers and Foster have also teamed

up to produce a Christmas LP, Once Upon A Christmas, which will feature Rogers and

Dolly Parton. "David (Foster) is one of the most brilliantly musical and diverse people I've

ever met", said Rogers. "We balance each other. While I provide warmth and spon-

ON STAGE KATRINA AND THE WAVES

Bamboo Club -

Toronto -

Oct. 4/84 Hard -edged '80s pop from a British quartet

containing numerous American influences that really cuts through. Few bands can

generate as much energy given such rela- tively spare instrumentation. Little fat here, with the traditional verse/chorus/in-

strumental format holding up very well, and Katrina's anguished, energetic vocals

boding success for this band, given radio's proper and necessary attention.

taneity and would accept a few flaws, he's a perfectionist." He continued with "Hum-

berto Gatica, our engineer, was an equal partner. He and David bring an additional

dimension to my music. With their help, I really challenged myself on this album."

Jim Campbell of RCA Canada noted that not only has the Rogers LP, shipped well over platinum (100,000 units), they have initially shipped two times more of the Ross album than had been expected.
