THE GAVIN REPORT February 15, 1985

The business in which we all toil can bea cold and impersonal one, with radiopeople referred to by their call -lettersand record folk called "the new PrivateStock guy." In speaking with a numberof you alleged people, we've determinedthat some of you are actual humanbeings. It would appear to be a publicservice, therefore, if we were to bio anoccasional batch so that you can allfind out where your brothers and sistersare coming from, as you all say. Hereare our initial profiles of a few of youselected geniuses, published in thespirit of accurate journalism:

BOB GARLAND/COLUMBIA RECORDSThis former Molly Hatchet roadie wasraised by Tibetan and TheloniousMonks in an obscure Iowa hamlet. Heprides himself on his friendship withKIQQ's Robert Moorhead, although thetwo have never met, and flew fourmusic directors to Tampa for the mostrecent Super Bowl, only learning onarrival that the game was being playedin Northern California. He is known togive great lunch, although his tightpromotional budget forces him to insistthat his radio guests would enjoy asmall lettuce sandwich.

MIKE PRESTON/KS103The illegitimate son of Sgt. Preston ofthe Yukon and Patti LaBelle, the feisty,yet power -mad programmer is mostproud of his autographed 8 by 10 glossyof Bruce Cockburn's cousin. Hereceived his early radio training at aDon Martin branch in Kuala Lampur andbegan his on -the -air career on hismother's CB. He's a regular visitor atSan Diego's Sea World where he oftenfeeds independent promotion men tothe dolphins.

LIZ KILEY/KOST-KFIThis L.A. MD received her early trainingas a concert percussionist and cocktailwaitress at the largest casino in Sparks,Nevada. While listening to the radio oneday, she said "I can do that" and began

by Tony Richland

voice training with a guy who once metCharlie Van Dyke. Her rise has beenmeteoric and she now is in line forhostess of the KOST Sunday nightJewish Hour broadcast.

THE GAVIN REPORT February 15, 1985

THE COMMODORES:RIGHT ON TRACKby Ron Fell

Ron Fell: As I recall, the band was thebrainchild of Milan Williams as anoutgrowth of his band The Mystics. Isthat correct?Milan Williams: No, no. (laughter). TheMystics were a part of the band, but sowere the Jays. Both were kinda breakin'up and so we merged to become theCommodores.RF: Who were the guys in the band thatfirst made the monstrous tour in supportof the Jackson Five, back in 1972?Milan: That was the six guys that werethe Commodores for so many years. Itincluded Lionel Richie and ThomasMcClary. 1982 was the first year that wemade any kind of personnel change.RF: So that makes thirteen straightyears?Milan: Right Exactly.RF: What was it like when you guys firstsigned with Motown and they found aslot for you right away on the JacksonFive World Tour?Ronald: It was a little before our first LP,"Machine Gun." When we signed withMotown we had to tour. It all came fromthe tour. We did the Hollywood Bowland from that we got the contract. Butthe night before the Hollywood Bowl wedid San Francisco and somehow theylost all of our equipment and uniforms.All we had for the Bowl show wassome tops that were like tights with nolegs to them. We put the tights on andwe had the boots ... no, we didn't havethe boots either. We just wore the tightsout on stage. And the horn players werejust singin' the horn parts. Richie andWilliam King were singing the hornparts ... "da-dat, da-dat, da-dat da-dat"... and from that came the recordingcontract.

Walter Orange

RF: How did you come to have yourfirst hit single, "Machine Gun?"Ronald: Motown usually had producerswho would do the song and bring theartist in and put it all together.... Theassembly line kinda thing. When theCommodores got into the act of thingswe wanted to be innovators. We wantedto change it from the old assemblylinething. We wanted to write, produce andperform. They brought us an arrangerby the name of James Carmichael whowas, for the next six or seven years, theproducer of everything we did.RF: It seems as though the Motownassembly line caused some artists toeventually leave the label, but you wereand still are obviously thrilled withMotown and particularly what it meantto you at that time.Ronald: In our neighborhood, Motownwas the business for Black kids andBlack entertainers. And to be withMotown, with all those great people likeMarvin Gaye, Diana Ross, SmokeyRobinson and the Miracles ... where allof it was happening, was an honor initself. But once we got there, we didn'twant to be like that. We wanted to bringour own kind of thing to it It was ahelluva battle too. 'Cause how can youtell a man who has made $300 million(Berry Gordy Jr.) that the way he wasdoing it wasn't right (for us). Weeventually showed him. Milan brought ina song he wrote and it was s0000 hotIt had so many different kinds of soundsto it and it interested Berry Gordy. Hesaid: "Yeah, that thing is like a machinegun." And we had the title of the firstsong.RF: And it was an instrumental. Did youthink you were gonna happen with an

It was 1969 when six college studentsat Tuskeegee Institute in Tuskeegee,Alabama started jammin' together.Three years later, they were the openingact for the 1972 Jackson Five WorldTour. Sixteen years after it all began,Walter Orange, Milan Williams andRonald La Pread, along with newestmember J. D. Nicholas (formerly ofHeatwave) were interviewed by THEGAVIN REPORT. At the time of theinterview, January 21, 1985, the bandhad released their first single, the titletrack from their newest album"Nightshift." Ironically, that date wasalso the first anniversary of the death ofJackie Wilson, one of the legends paidtribute to in the single.

instrumental first or did it catch you offguard?Walter: We really didn't care (laughter)how it happened. But it did catch us offguard. First of all, we were thrilled tohear our record on the radio.Consequently, it took off and we didn'tknow it was happening 'cause we wereout working. Our manager, BenjaminAshburn, was workin' us all over thecountry and around the world. So, when"Machine Gun" was goin' on, we wereout of the country. And when we gotback in the country they said: "Boys,you're gonna have a hit record." Andwe said: "Oh yeah. What is it?" And itdidn't have any impact on us until westarted doing dates in the States withgroups like the O'Jays. Consequently,we had to rush back to LA. to finishputting together the album.RF: When you were starting out, wasthere a problem coming up with a leadsinger? Was it tough having a drummertrying to do vocals from behind a drumkit?Ronald: In the beginning theCommodores were a showband. LionelRichie played sax, William King playedtrumpet The guitar player was ThomasMcClary. I played bass and Milan waskeyboards. So that left Walter Orange tosing. He was, and is, the singer for theCommodores. When we started doing

THE GAVIN REPORT February 15, 1985

the big shows like the Jackson Five theproblem wasn't that Walter couldn't sing,but that he souldn't sing, play drumsand do the routines all at the same time.So we pushed Lionel Richie into thatplace. So Lionel Richie became the faceof the Commodores and it just got to bethat he was thought of as the leader ofthe group.'

RF: You guys developed pretty quicklyas musicians. Was it a matter of beingout on the road so much and gettingyour act together there?Walter. When Ronald came into thegroup he played a little bass, but hewas a keyboard player. He played witha group in Montgomery, Alabama calledBob Moore and the Rhythm Aces. Webelieve in teaching each other. I'mdrums, and these guys showed me mylicks. "This is what's happening. Put anaccent here." ... the basics, but theyknew what they needed to make it feelgood. I may hear a piano that I wantMilan to play and ... like ... turn us on.We groove that way ... without anyconflict Just together as much as wedid, and do, we get tight real lightRonald: I think the reason we foughtMotown so hard was that when wecame in we weren't yet musicians. Wecouldn't always play the things the waythey wanted us to play them. So we hadto "Commodore-ize." Even now, whenyou listen to our music we don't soundlike other musicians. We sit down atrehearsal and customize. That's whatmakes it so different Thank God.(Laughter)RF: Lionel left the band a few yearsback. Much has been made of whetherhe left of his own free will or whetheryou guys talked him into it. I'm led tobelieve that you guys sat him down andsaid that it was great that he was doingall his outside projects, but there's aband to consider and if he wasn't goingto be a part of the band then maybe heshould split. Is that a fair rendition ofwhat transpired?Ronald: That is it But to add to theconfusion, when Lionel Richie left, at thesame time we were thrown for a loopby the death of the head of theCommodore organization, BenjaminAshburn. That meant all the direction, allthe contacts, all the inside things thatkept the group going, were lost Therewere so many things that only amanager could do. So we had to stopeverything until we had someonecompetent in that area.RF: I get the impression that you guysare not dumb when it comes tobusiness and financial matters.Ronald: That's correct Each of us areset But when it comes to running theorganization, Benjamin was the guywho did it 24 hours a day.RF: Did you feel that by havingsomeone as strong and as dedicated asBenjamin you were less likely to beripped off. We hear all those horror

stories about Black bands beingvictimized in the touring process.Milan: Benny was not so much ourmanager, but the seventh Commodore.We split everything seven ways. Bennywas a street person. Growing up inNew York, as Benny did, you become astreet person whether you want to ornot Benny was very much at ease withpromoters and you know how theyoperate. (Laughter).Walter. Sure we had been taken before.

"How can you tell a guywho has made $300 million(Berry Gordy Sr.) that theway he was doing itwasn't right (for us)."We learned from our experiences fast.We were taken by promoters, but onlyONCE. Once you've been hit across thehead walkin' up the street you knowthat when you're on that same streetagain to duck your head. (Laughter). Wegrew up real fastRF: Now you've got your managementunder control. You've got a wonderfulnew album, "Nightshift." But you've lostanother member of the band in ThomasMcClary. How did that come about?Ronald: After all the other changes (thedeparture of Lionel Richie and the deathof Ashburn), and the fact that the lastalbum, "13" was a little less thandesirable, we started realizing that weweren't stars, above everything. Wewere coming down and a little panic setin. Tommy decided he could do it on hisown. So we gave him our blessing andour love and let him go.RF: I understand you held quite anaudition to choose the newest memberof the band. What kind of a screeningprocess did you use and how did youend up hiring J. D. Nicholas?Ronald: The criteria was singing firstThen we got down to personality, a littlesmarts and a desire. We held auditionsthrough our record company and P.R.

firms. We actually listened to twentypeople. We wanted someone who couldcomplement Walter's voice yet give theCommodores just a bit of a differentsound. We wanted someone who wouldappeal to women like the rest of us.(Laughter). We were holding auditions atMotown studios and when it was J. D.'sturn he just walked up and startedsinging before he said anything. Wesaid, "Right On." And he stepped down

and started talking with an Englishaccent! We said, "Uh Oh. Somethin'different here." ... He's a great cat Hecan't dance but ... (Laughter).RF: How did you new sing, "Nightshift"come together?Walter. I came up with the track. It wasright after Marvin Gaye's death lastSpring. I brought the idea in and just gothummin' "Marvin, He was a friend ofmine and he could sing a song." It's notabout capitalizing. It's a tribute. Ourproducer, Dennis Lambert, said, "Let'sadd something about Jackie Wilsontoo." Dennis brought in Frannie Goldeto help with the lyrics and it wasMAGIC. We knew we had a hit song.RF: In finding someone to sing theJackie Wilson part, J. D. seemed to havethe right voice for the part. He seemedto get a real good reading from it.Walter. Yeah! That part was also magic.The song introduced two singers andthere was no conflictRF: How are you looking to the future?Is it all back together now?Milan: I don't know how many peoplecould have survived what theCommodores have survived. We weren'tin a good position mentally untilrecently. But I think the brotherhoodbetween us is the key. Brotherhood isalways gonna win and remain supremein the lives of the Commodores.RF: When can we expect you guys tohit the road?Walter. We're on our way to Europeand will return in March. By the middleof April you'll see us. Nothing heavythough. We want to get somemomentum going and then maybe byOctober we'll have a nice tour.

Extremely competitive among the top sixand REO threatens to crack the top fivenext week. One of my personal faves, TheCommodores, is now confirmed as an A/Chit with 89% Hit Factor in one month.Phil Collins is headed to the top withhis latest. It's already the ninth mostmentioned record in the format. Nextweek's debuts will include: DeBarge, DollyParton and The Manhattans. This week'sdebuts; David Lee Roth and Janey Streetdidn't exactly explode onto the chart,but considering the strength of the currentchart, it would only yield its earliestnumbers. An amazing 56 records meet theminimum requirement (10% of reportingstations). Probably not since we changedfrom the old blue paper format back in 1978have so many records qualified.

Most added, CERTIFIED, and a debut #8surprise. What is a surprise is the fastacceptance of nine minutes of "MIDNIGHTMOONLIGHT" onto the airwaves.

CERTIFIED

is no

I Don't Wanna/Don't Lose My Number/Long Long Way To Go/One More Night --PHIL COLLINS (Atlantic) On every formataround here (except for country), PHIL COLLINS is aggres-sively mopping up, threatening the likes of every living artist --no matter who they may be, closing in on the number one spot.Come to think of it, here it is, only February, and COLLINS(alongside MICK JAGGER) has a clear shot at being the numberone GAVIN artist, at least for the first trimester of '85. ThisLP is gonna be a monster, monster, monster. Any further pontif-ication is just hot air. The material on this LP will bring bucketsof persistent airplay. Above is a listing of the hottest potentialALBUM RADIO trax. I do detect an air of PRINCE on "Sussudio"and "Who Said I Would".

The Headmaster Ritual/What She Said/How Soon Is Now/RusholmeRuffians/Barbarism Begins At Home -THE SMITHS (Rough Trade/Sire) So to speak, THE SMITHS are over the hump. After animpressive debut, it wouldn't have surprised me if they hadbuckled a bit, but no. On MEAT IS MURDER, vocalist MORRISSEYand guitarist JOHNNY MARR trade-off key roles. At times, it's thevoice that solos while guitarist Marr supplies a lyrical and supplebackdrop. Much of the music Is still based on MORRISSEY'stroubled childhood memories, yet even in his most incessantwallowing, there's a clenched strength to the music that makeseven the first listening a commanding positive experience. I likeTHE SMITHS because they dare to be defiant. They are one of justa few new British bands of true substance. With the success of"How Soon Is Now" (concealed, yet at least included on this LP),at least THE SMITHS will finally see America on their own bitchyterms.

When The Spell Is Broken/You Don't Say/Little Blue Number -RICHARD THOMPSON (Polydor) I'm willing to bet that that'sLINDA THOMPSON on the opening track of RICHARD's second(no, third counting a live acoustic LP) since the split up. Like

BEAT HOTEL -BONGOS (RCA)

Their first full album in years jumpsfrom #20 to #8 in one week!

ERIC CLAPTON, RT has that ability to transcend complex mech-anical playing into natural heartfelt expression. CARLOS SANTANAcalls it "the helium". ACROSS A CROWDED ROOM is a variety ofmoods suitable for Album and Alternative ears alike. Like VANMORRISON's new LP, this one will give your senses a good rinsing.

"White Lies" -JASON & THE SCORCHERS (EMI America -12") If younever had time to discover JASON E. THE SCORCHERS after theirlast EP, chances are you just might underestimate the power ofthe scorch. Their upcoming LP has a side one that rocks and rollsout of control. Side two is the deversified side. Produced byMemphis engineer TERRY MANNING, whose work includes boutswith ZZ TOP and GEORGE THOROGOOD, the LP is due in aboutten days, partner. Watch for it.

Spain/Skin Deep/Let Me Down Easy -THE STRANGLERS (Epic)See those things on the back of the new STRANGLERS LP? Ithink they're called ears and you're going to be needing them forthis one. This four piece, together for over a decade, is carryingon a tradition of fine recording, no matter what trend prevails,no matter which haircut is cool. Their excellent previous LP,FELINE, rekindled significant re -interest, a successful US tour,as well as renewing a flow of material into the US via a majorAmerican label. Not the slightest bit obscure, HUGH CORNWALL(the man of a thousand moods and temperments) and the banddisplay a wide array of textures, talent and well travelledsophistication. Co -produced by LAURIE LATHAM (PAUL YOUNG),AURAL SCULPTURES keeps THE STRANGLERS steady on a con-sistent path few bands can brag about equaling.

"Invisible"-ALISON MOYET (Columbia) If you remember the huskyfemale singer with YAZ ("Only You"), then you remember ALISONMOYET. Prior to being half of a synth band, ALISON was a bluessinger. It's obvious that she'll be able to use more of her back-ground on her newly launched solo career. LOOK OUT. KZ

"THUNDER IN THE EAST"MASAYOSHI YAMASHITA (Bass)

MINORU NIIHARA (Vocals)MUNETAKA HIGUCHI (Drums)

Formed in Tokyo in 1981, LOUDNESS quickly grew from a local attraction to top -ranked status throughout Japan.In less than three years, they released four best-selling studio albums plus a double live collection.Determined to break through to an international audience, LOUDNESS recently added Great Britain and Europeto their list of conquests, including a string of sold -out concert dates.Now, LOUDNESS has set their sights on America. As guitarist/composer Akira Takasaki comments: "We're readyfor U.S. audiences because we've been polishing our skills for three years. We want to be recognized as a greatband throughout the world."LOUDNESS' first album for Atco Records, entitled "THUNDER IN THE EAST," was produced by Max Norman (OzzyOsbourne, Y&T, Ian Hunter). Recorded in Los Angeles during September & October 1984, the LP firmly establishesLOUDNESS as a world class unit.

Boasting excellent musicianship and great songs, LOUDNESS offers a thunderous burst of rock 'n' roll energywhich brings Japan onto the international music scene with undeniable force.90246-1

ANALYSIS

Week number two of computer printouts. The chart is goingthrough some transition and adjustments, but it hangs tough-- or in MICK DAGGERS' case, it hangs fire. MICK and BOWIE/METHENY was a close close call. Both of those trax are hugefaves on Album Radio. Our unique sampling of indicator stationsshows a unique blend of the best on 33 1/3. I don't mind admittinga sense of pride...other big airplay news is PHIL COLLINS,DAVID LEE ROTH, THE FIRM, and VISION QUEST...THE FIRMwas this week's big CERTIFIED/MOST ADDED with a show of

strength. Quite a few smart programmers are toying with the9:13 "Midnight Moonlight". Response has been good. A threemonth tour should ice everything firm...we're getting #1 requestreports on ANIMOTION. Ditto THE NAILS. They debut this weekat #33 and #36 respectively...God bless those of you on the VANMORRISON LP. It IS his best in a long long time. ...Speakingof GEORGE THOROGOOD, EMI's DON WASLEY reports on aunique release of a special 12" version of THOROGOOD's"I DRINK ALONE". The A -side will carry a short short introby GEORGE urging listeners "who drink alone" not to drive.The end of the Bside carries a 30 second PSA by GEORGE onthe unpleasant stats of DUI. Great idea...It's not often thatAtlantic's DANNY BUCH bugs me about a new record. Last timewas TWISTED SISTER (boy, did I eat it on that one!) and thisone is about a new vocalist named FIONA. First listen soundedlike powerful stuff... ONE HELLO AND ONE GOODBYE to twostations. As of next week, WOWD-Tallahassee changes over toTOP FORTY...WELCOME TO A NEW GAVIN INDICATOR STATIONKTAL-SHREVEPORT. PD is CHUCK ELLIS, MD is DAVE ODEN.ADDRESS is 3150 MARKET, 71107. Telephone is 318-425-2422.Treat them nice...CORRECTION PLEASE. Though it's kind ofa moot point, VISION QUEST was omitted as last week's MOSTADDED LP...IT'S A WELL KNOWN FACT REAL SOON thatworkaholic PHIL COLLINS has had his fingers in on 19 albumprojects since 1980!!! That's a strange studio tan you've goton the cover of NO JACKET REQUIRED, PHIL...KOME iscelebrating their 14th ANNIVERSARY. MD DANA JANG hasseen 11 of those 14 years...anyone heard the PAUL HARDCASTLEsingle and LP on PROFILE RECORDS? The instrumental hit,RAIN FOREST is a wonderful groove. Get a copy somehow. KZ

ANALYSIS February 15, 1985

BRONSKI BEAT hangs on to number one withfellow POWER TRIO member, THE SMITHS, ready toovertake them. The new release of THE SMITHSalbum - with many stations still receiving it -should carry them to the top next week.

Our new POWER TRIO entry is HUSKER DU, lastweek's CERTIFIED. This album has what it takesto become number one but it's facing toughcompetition. The key factor will be its ability tocross over to Alternative commerical stations.

Breathing down HUSKER DU'S neck are theSTRANGLERS, who have once again produced abrilliant album. The evolution and growth of thisband is staggering - remember their first fewalbums?

The BONGO'S land inside the Top Ten with aCERTIFIED 20 to 8 jump! They are certain tothreaten the current POWER TRIO.

Other significant movers include GUADALCANALDIARY, LLOYD COLE, SIMPLE MINDS, BILLYBRAGG, BEAT FARMERS, and the VELVETUNDERGROUND.

WELCOME TO two new GAVIN ALTERNATIVEINDICATOR stations: WNYU in New York Cityand WXCI in Danbury, CT. The stations' playlistsand phone numbers are listed in the correspondentpages this week. Look for more key additions soon.

Regardless of the fact there arethose who claim "Texas is Heaven",we apologize for the incorrect titleof WAYLON's Certified record "WaltzMe To Heaven". Also, we can't putthe blame on GRIP for listing "SomeHearts Get All The Breaks" insteadof "Radio Heart" for CHARLY McCLAINin Action Sides. Along with thetwo Certified singles this week by

JOHNNY LEE and the BELLAMYBROTHERS, the NITTY GRITTYDIRT BAND and EARL THOMASCONLEY are riding high. GEORGEJONES 6 BRENDA LEE have somethingto shout about (going 24-18), as dothe JUDDS (31-23). Needless to pointout ALABAMA have another 'gold' with "There'sNo Way". (Ron Fell reviews their latestalbum on page 41.) ED EVENS-KOTYreports KENNEWICK is "Falling In Love"with SYLVIA. The EVERLY BROTHERSare "The First In Line" with requestsat Y96 -EL PASO. JIM BORRETT atKWTO believes "I'm On Fire" by BRUCESPRINGSTEEN will appeal tQ the countryfans of SPRINGFIELD, OHIO. Look fortwo new heavies from Warner Brothers:"Don't Call Him A Cowboy" by CONWAYand "You're Going Out Of My Mind" byT.G.

As the stats roar out of the computer againthis week, GLADYS KNIGHT and the DAZZBAND perform a bypass of "Chartbound" andmake the heart -stopping move from "Up S Coming"right to debuts at #27 and #28 respectively. Topten already for DAZZ at WPNR-Utica (#6) andKIIZ-Killeen (#7) and goes to #14 at WNOV-Mil-waukee and #15 at WDMT-Cleveland. LUTHERVANDROSS' "Baby Comes Home" and goes to #7at KKDA-Dallas, #8 at WBLX-Mobile, #13 at WDRQ-Detroit, #14 at KRNB-Memphis and #18 at WANM-Tallahassee, declaring why it's "Certified" thisweek. LUTHER's counterpart in this category isMs. PATTI LABELLE, coming back with a "NewAttitude" from the smash "Cop" movie and a #1already at KGFJ in Los Angeles where the movieis still steaming! Also #3 at WAMO-Pittsburgh,#10 at WANM-Tallahassee, and #13 at KKDA-Dallas. Exemplifying the definitive of "one rightafter another" - one male - one female - are, ofcourse, PRINCE and MADONNA. Can there beanyone remaining out there that does not haveeither one of these two phenomenons' work intheir home collection of hits? We haven't been

disappointed in the performances of the DEBARGEor the ISLEYS' recent releases, both ending up inour "Most Added" category. True to form, theDEBARGE jumps into "Chartbound" and charts atWBLZ-Cincinnati, KMEL-San Francisco, WANM-Tallahassee, WBLX-Mobile and WNOV-Milwaukee,while added at more than 50% of our stations.Kiss "Kiss S Tell" goodbye as it sees its secondand final week in "Up S Coming" - going rightinto the chart next week based on this week'sincredible trends: 16-5 at WCIN-Cincinnati,18-13 at WYLD-New Orleans, debuts at #18 atWQKI-St. Matthews - at #22 at WBLX-Mobile,and at #25 at WHUR-Washington, and boasting a20% "Hit Factor" during week #2. DEBARGE isawarded "Pop Crossover" with genuine enthusiasmfrom the rock S A/C sectors. Other noteworthy tuneschalking up potentially solid stats are SOS BAND's"Week -End Girl", MIDNIGHT STAR's "ScientificLove" (see Dave's picks on back page), andFORCE MD's "Forgive Me Girl". Word from thelabel is that TEMPTATIONS' next single will be"My Love Is True" and from ROCKWELL - the"Peeping Tom" cut from the LP. Thanks!

THE GAVIN REPORT PERSONAL PICKS

PERSONAL PICKS

MADONNA -Crazy For You (Geffen) It's truethat there are few "automatics" aroundanymore, but this is certainly one thatcan be put into that rare category. Oursuperstar video mistress is also seen inthe film "Vision Quest" singing this song.From a programming standpoint, it's bestsummed up as "obvious".

ALISON MOYET-Invisible (Columbia) In answerto your first question...yes she is a she,not a he! What a voice! What a song! Whata production! Those who remember thegroup Yaz may recognize Alison as a memberof that band which had an excellent recordout a few years ago called "Only You". Lastname is pronounced MOY-YAY (as in day).Be sure to check this one out.

SADE-Smooth Operator (Portrait) Her LP, "DiamondLife", was picked as an Album Of The Weekseveral weeks back, and deservedly so. It'simmediately evident that this is not yourrun-of-the-mill release. Sade's (pronouncedSHAH -DAY) music has met with huge successin England and all over Europe and is nowprimed to conquer the USA. The coolest songI've heard in an awful long time. I believewe're witnessing the birth of a major star.

PHILIP BAILEY -Walking On The Chinese Wall(Columbia) Throw away the cookie cuttercause here's something totally new. Title songfrom Bailey's LP is one that has a little bit ofeverything for everybody. Once again PhilCollins' influence as producer comes throughloud and clear.

MIDNIGHT STAR -Scientific Love (Solar) Anyonequick to typecast this band is in for quite asurprise. Now that "Freak-a-zoid" and"Operator" have established a pop base forMidnight Star in quite a few areas, this newesteffort should help bring them the most Top 40exposure they've ever had.

February 15, 1985

ALBUMS OF THE WEEK

Alabama - "40 Hour Week" (RCA)How much hotter can these guys get? This

quartet of sweet home Alabamians seem to streak tothe top of the Country Chart with every release.They do it with efficient, lyrically driven songs,a host of charismatic personalities and an alltoo apparent pride in their musical heritage. Theirsincerity cuts through like a knife through butterand its legitimacy (spoofless, traditional and yetcontemporary) makes them many fans. When theyhit with the occasional song which crosses over tothe "pop" formats, it's not so much that Alabamareaches to pop, but that pop comes to Alabama.THERE'S NO WAY is the first single out of thechute, but it's hard not to imagine FORTY HOURWEEK, CAN'T KEEP A GOOD MAN DOWN, I WANTTO KNOW YOU BEFORE I MAKE LOVE TO YOUand FIREWORKS making 7" status.

Phil Collins - "No Jacket Required" (Atlantic)The truly talented artists can work in multiple

formats - unrestrained by stylistic straight jackets.Collins is ambidextrous. Left hand stroking --righthand clenched. This latest Collins project (self -produced along with Knobmaster Hugh Padgham)recall the past GENESIS successes without the oldbaroque excesses which would cause me to fadeearly. Collins is suited for many formats and hetakes all ties. Smart programmers have a vestedinterest in playing the best. In Collins' case youcould play the best and the rest. Check out;SUSSUDIO, DOESN'T ANYBODY STAY TOGETHERANYMORE, LONG, LONG, WAY TO GO, I DON'TWANNA KNOW, and the brilliant first single, ONEMORE NIGHT.
