ROCK0N by Ethle Ann Vara ALBUM REVIEWS The artist Debbie Harry The attxim KooKoo The label...... Chrysalis The cover art of Blondie's lead singer's solo debut is so spellbinding (it was created by the set designer of the film "Alien") that one expects a similar eerie beauty from the music. Tough luck. Harry has gotten together with the Chic organization (pro genitors of "Le Freak," pro ducers of Sister Sledge) to record an album of soft-soaped, disco/funk/rap that is not so bad in and of itself--it just spems like an ethnic rip-off coming from this lily-white warbler. Listeners who discovered Harry with her recent "Rap ture" might like KooKoo. Those expecting something along the (parallel) lines of Eat to the Beat will be terribly disappointed. • j'iUf ! mously appealing record, with (unfortunately> little potential as a commercial success. Ain't it always the way? Debbie Harry The artist Any Trouble The album...Wheels In Motion The label Stiff America The growing legion of Squeeze fans, XTC lovers and Elvis Costello freaks would do well to find the second LP by Manchester's Any Trouble. Theif pdp hooks are so tantaliz ing that they echo in the brain loud enough to drown out even television commercial jingles. Instrumentation includes man dolin and sax as well as the traditional guitar/bass/drums; vocals are tightly harmonied; songs are original. An enor •w LETTERS Dear Ethlie: Your main pro blem is that you just have no taste in music. You are the classic snotty critic that gets off on that deep new wave music and mediocre rock 'n* roll. Tom Petty is "pure rock"? My dear misinformed child, he is merely your basic, boring pop--the stuff that rises up the song charts to the Top Ten (the ten worst songs in America, In other words). What I know is real rock you call "posturing, prehistoric, macho, mindless gunk." Well, that "gunk" sells a hell of a lot of records. Look at AC/DC. Now that is music. Heavy metal is superior, and platinum is the proof of a good group. . --Unsigned. Dear Anonymous Teenaged Male Reader: I take it you weren't pleased with my review of Van Halen. Well, I stand by my opinion--and that's what it is, an opinion. As writer Spider Robinson says, "A critic is someone who tells you whether or not something is 'art.' A reviewer tells you if he likes it." I am a record reviewer, happily sharing my own (reasonably in formed) tastes with you. Feel free to disagree; neither of us is wrong, any more than you are right preferring vanilla ice cream and I am wrong prefer ring chocolate. (I might point out, howeyer, that Van Halen, AC/DC, etc., rest firmly in the "ten worst albums in America" list, by your own reckoning.) UPDATE Little Berserkeley records has its first-ever chart hit--and thafs all. Greg Kihn's Rockihn- roll rises up the top 40 and, simultaneously, the label's other acts (the Rybinoos, Earth Quake and Jonathan Richman) have either split the company roster or split up entirely. tv compuun sonnets. stc.
