accounted for 95% of totalturnover, the highest figure in theworld. Japan is next with 85%(over 1990 figures), followed bySwitzerland with 75%.

According to figures releasedby local IFPI-body NVPI, totalshipments over the first sixmonths was Dfl 615 million (app.US$300 million), an increase of20% compared to the same periodlast year. Total volume grew by15% to 24 million units.

CD shipments (excluding CD -singles) grew by 27% in value(reaching Dfl 561 million) and30% in units to 19.5 million.

As expected, vinyl albumsales were almost non-existentthe Netherlands, representing amere 1.3% of the total marketvalue. With a decrease of 61% invalue, the vinyl album shipmentswere valued at Dfl 7.7 million forthe first six months. The vinylsingle has lost impact too withonly 665.000 copies sold. Its

share of total shipment turnoveris only 0.6%, accounting for avalue of Dfl 3.4 million.

While globally the music cas-sette still is the no. 1 soundcarrier,its influence in the Netherlands issomewhat limited. With totalshipments of 1.5 million (Dfl 18million), volume dropped by 7%and the cassette now takes only3% of total shipment turnover.The CD -maxi -single (3.6% ofturnover) has not yet been able tocompensate for the loss of vinyl,mainly because of its high price.However, NVPI MD RobEdwards sees an important rolefor the cassingle, introduced onthe national market in March ofthis year. hi four months, it man-aged to sell 150.000 units with amarket value of Dfl 1 million.

If the current growth figuresare anything to go by, Edwardsexpects total shipment turnover tobe around Dfl 1.4 billion by the

So you think thereare too many

conferences already?We beg to differ.

Sure, these days it seems likesomeone announces a new music

conference about once every two months.Trumpets are blown. Brave words are uttered.Each new conference is going to be the biggestand the best. Each is going to blow the NewMusic Seminar away.

Sure.Still, the conference trade is booming.What we have seen in Europe - in Florence

and Dublin, Cologne and Copenhagen, Glasgowand maybe next year in Manchester - is a healthygrowth in national and regional music meet-ings. And iri serving their various markets,most of them do a pretty good job, too.

But if you want to Make the very most ofEurope, get beyond the various national hori-zons, connect with the emerging single market,make contacts with people from East of the old

DAYS '91

Iron Curtain, there is still only one conference toattend.

Never mind the bollocks, here are the facts:Last year at Berlin Independence Days there

were 2238 delegates representing 622 compa-nies from 18 countries and including 325 mediapeople from 19 countries.

There was a trade fair of 83 stands with 114exhibitors from 21 countries. And 185 panelistsfrom 19 countries chewed things over in 22seminars.

We are thus pleased to announce that BID,now venturing its fourth year, ranks as theworld's third largest international music con-ference, while our massive showcase pro-gramme (last year 141 acts from 22 countriesplayed in 12 different venues) clocks in proudlyas Europe's largest music festival.

While Dire Straits' On EveryStreet remains at no. 1 in theEuropean Top 100 Albumschart, PolyGram is preparing tolaunch another blockbuster enti-tled Two Rooms: Celebrating TheSongs Of Elton John & BernieToupin.

The tribute album, which willbe released on October 14, fea-tures an impressive line-up of 16artists singing new versions of theduo's extensive catalogue. Amongthose appearing on the album areSting, Phil Collins, Eric Clap -ton, Sinead 0' Connor, TinaTurner and George Michael.

For most Phonogram compa-nies, the release signifies the startof a massive TV marketing cam-paign on the scale of those usedfor Elton's 32 -track sampler, TheVery Best Of, which sold inexcess of six million copiesacross Europe.

According to PolyGram Inter-national marketing manager

Robbie Dennis, the album shouldgenerate "many millions" acrossEurope and TV campaigns arescheduled to run in all Europeanmarkets up until Christmas. TheLondon -based company hasalready produced TV spots of 10,30 and 60 -seconds, and avideo/laser disc will be releasedby PolyGram Video, includingrare performances, archivefootage and interviews.

In addition, coinciding with thepublication of a 128 -page hard-back book on the partnership, alimited -edition box set is planned,containing the book, album andvideo. The album's first single,Oleta Adams' Don't Let The SunGo Down On Me, has alreadycharted in the UK at no. 37, andis this week's highest entry in theEHR Chartbound section. "Thatsingle gives us the perfect launchfor the album release," saysPhonogram UK marketing direc-tor Nick Rowe. "I don't see whywe can't do as well as the DireStraits album. It's potential is

New GenerationSalutes CohenRediscovered sixties bard, singerand songwriter Leonard Cohenis being hailed by a whole newgeneration of artists in the newlyreleased album I'm Your Fan. Outon Coltirnbia for mainlandEurope, the album brings together18 bands with original interpreta-tions of Cohen songs. The rightsfor the UK are held by EastWest, while Atlantic holds themfor the US.

The tracks on the albuminclude R.E.M.'s First We TakeManhattan, Pixies' I Can'tForget, Lloyd Cole's ChelseaHotel and James's So Long Mar-ianne.

The album was conceived andproduced by French rock maga-zine Les Inrockuptibles publisherChristian Fevret, who discov-ered the artist some 10 years agoand has been a fan ever since.

Says Fevret of Cohen, "He isan artist with such consistentsongwriting over a period of 25years, which makes him unique.The album I'm Your Man (1988)brought a sort of comeback forhim, and we discovered thatmany bands actually liked hissongs a lot. When we started con-tacting bands and managers, theywere all into the idea."

He adds, "It took a lot of timegetting all the labels involved, butI'm sure that no record companycould have done the job with allthe jealousies and competition[that are likely to be] involved.All the bands contacted are on therecord."

According to Fevret, 75% ofthe royalties for the album go to

the recording artists and theremaining 25% to the magazine."It's a high level of artist royalty.Actually, this was proposed byJohn Cale who, we know, is atough negotiator."

Fevret considers the album aone-off, but is very pleased withthe results. "It goes to show that hissongs are not dated. These versionsare not just rewrite of the originals,they are a new discovery."

Discussions with Sony MusicFrance's Columbia label startedin February 1991, and GMPatrick Decam was quickly con-vinced of the album's potential."It started off as a project forFrance only, but European inter-est was quickly aroused. For me itis proof that an affiliate can gen-erate a worldwide project too.

"After we discussed the wholeconcept, we decided the magazineshould produce the album. It'sbetter if a third, neutral party ishandling the clearance of therights, " says Decam.

Co -sponsored by French AMstation France Inter, the albumwas launched at national retailchain FNAC, and initial ship-ments were for 25.000 copies."You know, we're quite obsessedwith TV advertising in this mar-ket," says Decam. "So [thesenumbers] are quite a stunt for aproject that's not TV -advertised."

Cohen, who debuted in 1967with The Songs Of LeonardCohen, has released nine studioalbums for CBS of which I'mYour Man became his most suc-cessful to date. A new (Columbia)album is expected in 1992. MB

enormous, and will appeal to peo-ple who like Phil Collins, DireStraits and Eric Clapton-the 25-50 year old market."

Rowe expects to sell one mil-lion copies before the end of theyear. Although not disclosingdetails, the album will be adver-tised on TV until Christmas, andwill be tied in with a one -hourspecial on ITV, at the beginningof December.

In Holland, expectations areequally confident. With a totalinvestment of Dfl 250.000(US$132.000), the album shouldreach the platinum status(100.000 units) by the end ofthis year. According to Phono-gram Holland marketing man-ager/ international repertoireDries van der Schuyt, Dfl150.000 will be spent on TVadvertising, Dfl 40.000 on radiospot campaigns (including 14commercials on both the nation-al channels and commercialcable station Sky Radio), whilethe remaining is used for print

and point -of -sale advertising.Radio ads will run from mid -November through to mid -

December.Chris Georgi, GM of Poly -

Gram Germany's TV merchandis-ing arm Polystar, is aiming tosell close to 500.000 copies of thealbum before the end of the year.No less than DM600.000 (app.US$330.000) will be spent on afour -week radio and TV advertis-ing campaign, while another150.000 is added for print and in-store campaigns. According toGeorgi. "The split between TVand radio will be 50/50. Radio,however, is still the best mediumto promote music, unless youwant to reach an older [50 -plus]demographic." Both the ARD sta-tions as well as the major privateswill be targeted.

The French Phonogram com-pany could not be reached atpress time, but is believed to bespending Ffr4 million (app.US$650.000), likely to be thebiggest in the company's history.

Quality Europe ToProvide News

by Paul Easton

Cheltenham -based satellite broad-caster Quality Europe FM isoffering its hourly European /inter-national news bulletins to otherstations. This will make them a,third news provider, along withIndependent Radio News (IRN)and Network News.

Unlike the other two services,Quality will be charging stations£416 (app. US$690) per month, on a12 -month minimum contract basis.IRN and Network News are financedthrough the sale of a commercialspot during peak -time bulletins.

Says station director Roy Litch-field, "While IRN and NetworkNews are producing good news ser-vices, it appears from the phonecalls we've been receiving that thereare many stations seeking a thirdservice which will enable them toprovide an alternative news servicefrom neighbouring stations."

He adds, "We have also hadsome interest from stations inFrance, Spain and Norway to carryour normal programming output asa sustaining service. The cost forthis will depend on the station's totalservice area, and how much of ourprogramming they take."

Network News Offers 20%Incentive To SubscribersNetwork News, one of the UK'slatest news services, will distribute20% of its national revenue to sub-scriber stations on an audience -delivered basis.

According to a letter from Net-work News joint MD PaulChantler to the MDs of the 20 sta-tions on the network, the bulletinservice will begin carrying corn-

mercials when a "critical mass" ofstations are committed to using theservice.

Network News was launchedon July 6, the day after the plugwas pulled on ITN Radio News.The network is partly managed andoperated by former ITN staff, andis based at Chiltern Radio Net-work \Dunstable. MMcG

Radio InvestmentsEyes Smaller Stations

by Mike McGeever

Radio Investments Ltd (RI),the UK radio investment firm,has set its sights on smallerincremental stations (less than250.000 total service area), fol-lowing the company's recentfriendly buyout of KCBC/Ket-tering for £130.000 (app.US$217.000). KCBC, rated sec-ond behind BBC Radio 1 in amarket of 25 stations, is the firststation in which RI has a 100%stake.

RI bought KCBC after theUK Radio Authority decisionforced the majority share hold-er-the Chiltern Radio Net-work (CRN)-to sell its shares.

Because CRN's total service areaextends into KCBC's, theywould be allowed only a 20%share of the station, a minoritystake that did not interest CRN.However, CRN managementexpressed "delight" and "enthu-siasm" that the station was in thehands of RI.

RI chairman/CEO RobertStiby dismisses some of theindustry pundits claims that sta-tions with total service areas ofless than 250.000 are not viable."If the stations are run properlywith low operating and start-upcosts by experienced owners,they can be successful," he says.

The "keen interest" to takestakes in and purchase smaller

stations while bidding for newlicenses is a new avenue thefirm is pursuing, according toStiby. "The acquisition ofKCBC is our first operationalventure and marks a significantdeparture for RI. We see it as ablueprint for developing othersmall stations."

Prior to the purchase, RI'sinterest in stations was focusedon investment, rather than thehands-on, day-to-day opera-tions.

Established in 1972, RI'sportfolio includes shares in

metro -area broadcasters CapitalRadio /London, Invicta Radio/Kent and East Anglia Radio/Norwich.

Three Vie For Kings Lynn LicenceThe Radio Authority has receivedthree applications for the KingsLynn ILR FM licence. This isdesigned to cover the town ofKings Lynn and much of westNorfolk, a population group ofaround 100.000 adults. A decisionis expected to be announced withintwo months.

The applicants include:Bright FM: Those behind the

group include RTM/Thames-mead-SE London MD RodneyCollins; Patrick Cox, MD ofNBC Europe and former MD ofRadio Luxembourg and SkyChannel, along with TV AM for-mer director of programmes,Mike Hollingsworth. Otherbackers include Radio Invest-ments and Chiltern Radio. Pro-gramming would be targeted atthe 25-55 age group, with a musicmix of current chart hits andoldies. and some

evening programming. Local out-put would account for 16 -hours aday, with Chiltern Radio's Super -Gold providing a sustaining ser-vice between 22.00-06.00. Thestation plans to be on -air withinfour months of being awarded thelicence. The first year revenueforecast is estimated at £130.000(app. US$ 211.000).

Kings Lynn FM (KLFM): Itis backed solely by Mid -AngliaRadio, which owns HerewardRadio/Peterborough and CNFM/Cambridge. Local output wouldbe between 06.00-18.00 weekdays,but would be restricted to only afew hours a day on weekends.

Music would be "a carefully -selected blend of current hits andpopular hits of the past fourdecades," and would account foraround 75% of the output.

If successful, KLFM aims tohe broadcasting by July 1, 1992.

The first year revenue forecast isestimated at £261.000

X-Cel: The main person behindthis group is Tony Buckingham,who runs his own builder's busi-ness. He has been involved inmobile discos in the past, and theapplication says that he "has accu-mulated a wealth of knowledge inall aspects of radio over the years,due to his almost fanatical interestin all areas of radio broadcasting."

X-Cel would provide its ownprogramming 24 -hours a day.During the day, the station wouldhave an AOR music format withspecialist programming during theevening and night. They also planto have a Sunday evening special-ist music slot.

The launch date is expected tobe 12 months from the award ofthe licence. X-Cel's first year rev-enue forecast is estimated at£286.000. PE

Radio Image Change Called ForA new report published by Bar-clays de Zoete WeddResearch says commercialradio must advance significant-ly away from its "independentlocal radio" image as a providerof pop -based broadcasts, if it isto improve its share of both lis-tenership and advertising rev-enue.

In BZW's latest "Media Sec-tor Review," analysts also warnthat radio's penetration is

unlikely to grow further, so anynew stations will need to winover existing listeners fromother stations, leading to small-er audiences per station.

According to the report, in1983 commercial radio's shareversus the BBC's was 45%.Almost a decade later, its mar-ket share is much the same,despite a notable increase in thenumber of stations.

BZW, in agreement with theindustry (which maintains thatradio needs to increase its cur-rent 2% share of all advertis-ing), says "the massive growthin radio advertising spendbetween 1986-1989 was accen-tuated by demand for advertis-ing space outstripping the sup-ply of airtime available." It addsthat media inflation on this

scale is unlikely within the nextfive years because of theincrease in the number of sta-tions resulting in more ad

space.The report concludes that

"radio advertising needs to

become more financiallyrewarding for agencies. if it is

to take a larger slice of theadvertising cake. Radio airtimeremains so cheap that it is notcost effective, making a radiocampaign unprofitable for anagency. Thus advances in radiosales technique should solvethe problems as to disparaterate cards, for example." PE

Media Industry TreadsPoor Profit Waters In 1990

by Emmanuel Legrand

EHR FM net NRJ achieved thehighest profit margin in theFrench radio and music industryin 1990, according to an analysisof the top 100 communicationcompanies by trade magazineStrategies.

The magazine found thatwhen compared with 1989, allsectors of the media -press, TV,cinema and radio -suffered frompoor profits and turnover figuresas a result of the recession.

Stratigies has produced atable ranking the companiesaccording to turnover and prof-itability. The number one com-munication company in Franceis publishing group Groupe dela Cite, with Ffr6.2 billion (app.US$10 million) turnover, fol-lowed by advertising companyInformation et Publicit& withFfr6.1 billion turnover.

According to the analysis, 14companies showed negativeresults in 1990, compared toonly eight in 1989. The TVindustry is also suffering, withonly two outlets showing prof-

its, Canal Plus and TF1. Mostother channels are reportingmassive losses.

Strategies has called for "sta-bilisation" and "consolidation"in the radio industry, noting thatadvertising revenues for FM

networks are down, with sta-tions as a whole reportedlygrabbing about 6.6% of theoverall advertising expenditurein France in 1990. However,only one third of this amountwas allocated to FM stations.

SNEP Gets New GMAudiovisual field specialistBertrand Delcros has beenappointed the new GM of musicindustry organization SNEP.

Delcros is replacing PatriceFichet, who leaves the organisa-tion at the beginning of thismonth. Fichet was a general del-egate for five years and promotedto VP of the music industryorganisation just last year.

Delcros's appointment is

being seen as a move by SNEP'spresident Patrick Zelnik to

develop a different strategy andset new goals for the group. Hisfirst task at SNEP will reportedlybe to solve the quota issue by set-

ting up negotiations between therecord and radio industry.

Fichet, who has been in themusic industry for 17 years, sayshe has "no specific plans for thefuture," but he does not want toremain "inactive."

Delcros, 48, has held vari-ous civil servant positions,including assistant to GeorgesFillioud, communications min-ister in the early 1980s. He wasalso head of the legal depart-ment of the former broadcast-ing authority CNCL beforejoining the staff of CatherineTasca, minister of communica-tions, in 1988. EL

Kaas Heads For Platinum With 'Scenes'Patricia Kaas has sold over 500.000copies of her latest album Scenes de Vieoutside of France, Sony Music reports.The sales make the artist a heavy con-tender for the best French exporting actaward at the Victoire, which she hadpreviously won in 1990 and 1991.

Currently, the album has achieveddouble platinum status in France(600.000 copies), and is heading fortriple platinum. Kaas is also doing wellin Germany, having sold 170.000 copiesso far.

Sony Music France internationalpromotion coordinator Annick Geislerstresses that the German success has

been achieved "without radio support."Geisler adds, "Kaas has been selling

through her good press coverage. Sta-tions tell us that the songs are too tradi-tional, too bluesy. I believe the day shehas a hit radio song, she will make itbig."

Kaas's album sales are likely to beboosted in Germany when she embarkson a one -month Eunipean tour at theend of September. The tour will include12 gigs in Germany and two in Moscow.

Sony Music is expected to releaseKaas's first live album, entitled Carnetsde Scene, in Europe at the beginning ofNovember. EL

BMG 'NOW NUMBER 2' IN EUROPE

Crossborder PromotionCredited As Key To Success

by Mal Sondock

BMG International's GINS oper-ations have the largest share in thecompany in terms of both turnoverand profits, according to the label'spresident/CEO Rudi Gassner. Andbreaking acts internationally hasbeen the key.

Speaking during the company'sAugust 21-24 sales conference,Gassner said BMG is now no. 2 inEurope. "Our company is one ofthe very few that has been able toestablish international productfrom artists such as Eurythmics,Lisa Stansfield, Black Box,Candy Dulfer, Urban DanceSquad and from Germany, MilliVanffii, and Snap, in the Ameri-can market," said Gassner. "Our

strategy is not to buy market share,but to develop one and look notonly at turnover, but especially atthe profit margin."

According to BMG Ariola MDThomas M. Stein, who opened theconference, the good sales forradio and TV -promoted productand sales of national productionswere the major reasons for theDM330 million (app. US$183 mil-lion) turnover of BMG AriolaMunich-by far the largestturnover within the group.

Stein also pointed to the workof Berlin -based Hansa, the folkmusic production company, thegrowth in sales of music video andthe Ariola Import Service (ARIS)(in particular the work of theirnational A&R team) as keys to the

group's success. Stein alsoannounced key signings of formereast German stars and exceptional-ly good results in sales in the fivenew east German states.

Future goals for the next fewmonths include a strengthening ofthe already high market share,increasing CD sales, and furtherdeveloping the music video busi-ness. The establishment of newaffiliates is also planned, alongwith a more in-depth look at themerchandising business.

BMG Ariola Munich deputyGM Christoph Schmidt empha-sized the healthy relationshipbetween cost and turnover withinthe group which, he says will bethe basis for large investment inthe future.

will be the first to be featured. Artiststo be played include T'99 andQuadrophonia. Says Yaman, "We'llplay the underground dance stuff'industrial house', as they call it in theUS."

Also, two new DJs have beenrecruited. Stephan Schwenk and

Tina Domina. Schwenk was former-ly hosting the popular "Herz Flim-mem" show on Radio Charivariand will now present a 09.00-12.00weekly show on Ni. Domina will beresponsible for a weekday 22.00-02.00 programme.

Ni is one of the very few stations

in Germany that has a dance format.It operates a playlist of some 38records and three powerplays (basedon call -ins) that run every three hours.The current playlist features artistssuch as C&C Music Factory, Incog-nito, Marky Mark and BG ThePrince Of Rap.

Radio 16/Madrid FlipsTo News -Talk Format

by Anne Marie de la Fuente

The first all -news station inMadrid is set to hit the airwavesin early 1992.

Madrid station Radio 16,owned by media publishingcompany Grupo 16, hasalready stopped alternatingmusic with hourly news breaks,delegating instead the entire07.00-14.00 morning block to amix of international, nationaland local news. Between 14.00-23.00, the station is playingmusic interspersed briefly everyhour by news bulletins. Theearly morning slot between23.00-07.00 consists of aphone-in programme.

The station plans to continueto put into effect gradualchanges over the next fewmonths to lead to the all newsformat.

Says Radio 16 MD AngelMosterin, citing the relativesuccess of French 24 -hour newsstation France Info, "It's onlynatural that a newspaper andmagazine publisher like Grupo16 would eventually opt for amore news -oriented station."

Radio 16 announced its pro-gramming shift at the same timeSER's AM/FM news/talk net-work, SER Conventional,increased its news programmesto fill a total of 10 hours a day.(See M&M October 5). The

continuous news block openswith "Matinal Ser" between06.00-09.00, followed by "Hora14" from 14.00-16.00 and fin-ishes with "Hora 25" between19.00-24.00. According to SERdirector Augusto Delkader,"Hora 25" targets those whowant to arrive home [fromwork] well-informed. With thismove, SER reaffirms its com-mitment towards specializa-tion."

While SER Conventional isintensifying its news coverage,pop station Los 40 Principalesis attempting to focus its formaton the Spanish youth market.

BMG Hopes PinnedOn Complices

boys, Level 42. Guns N' Rasesand LT2.

Camara revealed that BMG'smarket share in fiscal year 1990/91had risen from 14.2% to 1.5.cri..

However, it is expected to improvein fiscal 1991/92 because three ofBMG's acts have already dominat-ed the summer charts in Spain.Mecano's album Aida/ai has soldmore than 600.00() copies (morethan one million worldwide) sinceits June release, merengue -salsastar Juan Luis Guerra was no. 1

Ricordi has invested in radioand TV advertising campaigns topromote Giannissima. The com-pany chose the national music -only station, Radio Italia SoloMusica Italiana, because Mirettibelieves it has developed into theperfect channel to promote local-ly produced music. DS

ANTENNE 4 LAUNCHES NEWS SERVICE

News CompetitionHeats Up In Norway

by Kai Roger Ottesen

Antenne 4, the newly launchedNorwegian news network, aims togive rival Radio Nettverk a run forits money.

Norwegian satellite news dis-tributors Riksnytt and RadioNettverk merged on September 16,the same date Antenne 4 begantransmitting. The new service isnow called simply Radio Nettverk.Explains editor -in -chief ArvidWeber Skjxrpe, "Until now it hasbeen impossible to make moneyout of this. Today's market is onlybig enough for one solid news sta-tion, besides pubcaster NRK. Wecan now give NRK competition onbehalf of the locals."

NRK won't be the only stationfeeling the market pinch, however.Says Antenne 4's director MortenOseberg Andersen, "We want togive Riksnytt/Nettverk competi-tion. Skjwrpe has a solid news staffnow with 20 journalists. ButAntenne 4 and the subscribingradio stations will make money outof this. We can manage with fivejournalists."

According to Andersen, the

subscribing radio stations will bepaid by Antenne 4 for the advertis-ing spots run after each news bul-letin. Radio stations can air 19

headline news bulletins each dayfocusing on national news. Thetiming of each bulletin is estimatedto be two to two -and -a -half min-utes. Norsk Telegrambyra (NTB)is supplying the news.

The news service is currentlyaired on MOR-formatted RadioLimelight in Oslo, Bergen, Sta-vanger and Trondheim. Andersen,station manager for all of these out-lets, aims to include 20 stations inone year. Continues Andersen, "Wedo not want any more than 20 sta-tions. That is enough for us." Hedoes, however, have his eye onwinning over some of the Nettverk-stations, as well.

Antenne 4 is a private companyowned by several radio stations.Andersen says only some of thestations are among the NumberOne Radio stations, a group said tobe eying Norway's proposednational commercial radio station.(Those include leading local sta-tions Radio Sor/Kristiansand,Radio Limelight/Oslo, Radio One

Melhus/Trondheim, Radio 102/Haugesund, Radio Grenland/Persgrunn-Skien, Radio Fakta/Drammen, Radio FredrikstadRadio Sjoboden /Tonsberg, RadioVLR /Molde, Radio Brygga/Tromso and Radio Siddis/Sta-vanger.)

Some of those stations mayplay a central role in Antenne 4.Says Andersen, "Originally, theNumber One Radio's were interest-ed in building up its own newsstaff. That is impossible right now.We have launched this new servicein order to service these stations(plus other stations not included inthis organisation) and also to breakdown Riksnytt/Radio Nettverk."

Continues Andersen, "I am con-vinced that the company should berun with a profit the first year,"while estimating the costs will runto NKR3 million (app.US$429.000). "That is 25% ofwhat Radio Nettverk is operatingwith," he estimates.

Antenne 4's editorial staff isheaded by Hendrik Steen, former-ly with the newspaper AkershusArbeiderblad and Radio Krislia-nia in Oslo.

Nydahl Fined Skr2.000 BySwedish Courts; Plans Appeal

by David Rowley

Ad rebel Radio Nova head ClanNydahl has been slapped on thewrist with a Skr2.000 (app.US$300) fine after being convictedby the Swedish courts for broad-casting without a licence.

Nydahl, whose station's licencewas yanked after Radio Nova airedcommercials in contravention ofSwedish law, says he will appealthe conviction "on principle."Radio Nova is still broadcastingthe illegal ads.

Says Nydahl, "The point is theystill think I'm a criminal and thecourt has misunderstood the rea-sons for our dissent. Well go onanyway. We're not the criminals.It's our politicians who are crimi-nal. There are a lot of people say-ing we lost the battle, but won thewar."

The "war" started in March1990, when Nydahl told SwedishNwrradionamnden he believedthe local broadcasting law to be incontravention of both the Swedishconstitution and Article 10 of theEuropean Convention of HumanRights. The regulators disagreed,

but Nova, nevertheless, startedrunning ads on June 20 of thatyear. Nwrradionamnden suspendedtwo of the station's 13 licenceholders, and subsequently revokedthe Nova holding company's per-mit to broadcast. Six months later,authorities finally charged Nydahlfor breaking the broadcasting laws.

The case went to trial on

September 9, but a verdict waspostponed until September21-after the Swedish elections.Judge Karl Fogelqvist's nine -pagejudgement was seen in some quar-ters as a softening in attitude in thewake of the defeat of the SocialDemocrat government-a fallexpected to signal the advent ofcommercial radio in Sweden.

Three Major Finnish Stations ToSimulcast During Primetime

Radio Ettan/Helsinki, RadioSataplus/Tampere and RadioAuran Aallot/Turku are joiningforces to beat the on -going reces-sion.

The trio will call itself RadioRuuhkaSuomi and will simul-cast at primetime for two hoursdaily to a potential listeningaudience of over one million inthe more populated south, a fac-tor the new group hopes willattract advertisers.

According to local regulatorBoard of Radio and Telecom.

munications, simulcast is

allowed between a maximum ofthree indie local stations andcan't exceed 25% of their normaltransmission time. Earlier week-end experiments of local simul-cast weren't successful.

Hard economic times haveresulted in eight indie local sta-tions going dark since 199(? and a5%-10% drop in the industry'sannual ad income from Fmk215million (app. US$487.000) in1990 to between Fmk200-195million in 1991. KH



BENELUX

GRIB Grim OverLaunch Of Capitale

by Marc Maes

The Groupement des RadioIndependantes de Belgique(GRIB), a private radio organi-sation with some 30 members,including all of the French lan-guage Radio Contact stations,Bel RTL and Nostalgie, amongothers, has criticised theSeptember 2 launching of thenew RTBF outlet for the Brus-sels area-Bruxelles Capitale.

According to GRIB presi-dent Pierre Houtmans, "Wehad concluded a kind of gentle-man's agreement on the media -decree of last January, wherebythe official broadcaster wouldbe authorised to advertise inreturn for more antenna powerand stereo -broadcast for the pri-vates."

Houtmans explains that, withBruxelles Capitale, the publicservice is using communityfunds to compete with privateinitiatives such as Bel RTL. Headds, "Then we hear that theyhave abolished RTBF 4 (theFrench community's "world ser-vice") due to lack of funds. Ithink that the real task of a pub-lic station is to run a programmelike RTBF 4, as private broad-casters don't have the means todo so."

Houtmans adds that Brux-elles Capitale will also affectregional advertising, "becausethe same cake will now be splitbetween more partners." Hethinks that stations like TopFM, Cherie FM and Nostalgiewill suffer from the new com-petitor. "They have even adapt-

ed Cherie FM's format, andboth the head of music, as wellas the three new hosts, workedwith Cherie FM. On the otherside, I am happy to see thatevery step the public station hasmade was inspired by the pri-vates. They launched Radio 21to compete with Radio Contact,and now we have BruxellesCapitale. It is more than obvi-ous that private stations are theones bringing in the initiativeshere."

Both Bel RTL and RadioContact have officially appliedto be recognised as networks forthe French Belgian community.A positive reaction could influ-ence the pending situation inFlanders, where networks areforbidden by law.

BMG, EMI, Virgin LaunchNew Merchandise CompanyBMG Ariola's MD Derk Jolinkhas announced that BMG Ario-la, EMI Music and Virgin Bel-gium have decided to launchEVA as a separate company inbelgium beginning October 1, asthe market witnesses an expan-sion in the TV -merchandisingmarket, and "competition hasdeveloped alongside."

EVA's new GM will be for-mer BMG TV merchandisingmanager Amaury de Jam-blinne. The new company willbe located in the same buildingas BMG Ariola, but on a sepa-rate floor.

"EVA has now been chan-nelled into one company, withdistribution handled on a 'tour -de -role' basis by each of thethree companies. EVA Belgiumwill also work separately fromEVA in Holland, but I don'texclude any future collaborationon certain projects," says deJamblinne, adding that his assis-tant An de Keyzer will also joinhim at the new company.

Quincy Jones: EducatorQuincy Jones: composer,arranger, player, and producerextraordinaire, is without doubtone of the most important forcesin American popular music ofthe past four decades. Born inChicago 58 years ago, reared inSeattle, he was a childhoodfriend of Ray Charles, withwhom he formed his first band.Student of Basie trumpeterClark Terry, as a teenager heperformed with Billie Holidayand Lionel Hampton. Years ofsession work with the likes ofDuke Ellington, Count Basie,Cannonball. Adderley, andCharles Mingus followed.In the sixties he began scoringfilms, eventually composing themusic to more than 30 movies.His production and arrangingcredits are legion and legendary,spanning both the jazz and popspectrums, from Ella to Aretha,from Little Richard to HoraceSilver, and including, of course,Michael Jackson.No one exemplifies better thebroad range of styles and influ-ences characteristic of jazz. Afirm believer in musical democ-racy, innovation is his trademark."Purity", for Jones is a synonymfor limitation."Jazz, the word, is so broad andall -encompassing," he says, "thatmost people are confused aboutexactly what it is. That's why wehave to somehow emphasize justwhat the content of our popularmusic is. People talk about Ste-

vie Wonder or Earth Wind &Fire, and forget to mention theword jazz. Yet they are almost pri-marily jazz. You can say "progres-sive" if you want, but that stillmeans jazz -tinged."Even in a record like MichaelJackson's Thriller;" continuesJones, "there's a song called BabyBe Mine, of which the first 2 barsare almost a direct quote fromJohn Coltrane. So there is anexposure which is almost sublimi-nal; the music is coming throughall the time."Gaining a larger audience for jazz,and a broader awareness of pop'smusical roots among youngermusicians, is, he believes, a mat-ter of more thorough exposure."In the States we may be sufferingfrom an excess of riches. Youngpeople consider their culture dis-posable - because it is so rich. Ihear young rappers talking all thetime about a song six months oldas obsolete. So you can under-stand what they might think abouta Duke Ellington or a MilesDavis."Europe has been aware of theimportance of jazz for a longtime. All the European countrieshave known that this music is oneof the strongest exports thatAmerica has. If you could makeyoung people aware of this,maybe we could find a moreinternational, democratic audi-ence. That's where pop music isan important link. So in the endit's a matter of education."

Landmarks - Blue NoteIntangibles are an important factorin jazz. Technique, of course, issomething tangible, and all greatplayers have great technique. Butstyle and authority are somethingelse - they are an expression ofpersonality, and lend music both itsmystery and its power. This veter-an saxophonist/ composer conveysimmediate command beyond meremastery of his instrument. It's therein the writing, on songs such asThanksgiving; and it's there in theplaying, on songs like The Owl &The Fox and Emperor Jones.

Syndication - The Rise Or Fall?The concept of pan-European syndicated

programming seems, at first, to be ideal. Makea programme, sell it to radio stations in 10 dif-ferent countries, and reap the rewards. In fact,

it has not been so easy.

Despite the optimism of a few years ago, mostradio syndicators would now agree that the pro-grammes must be as unique as the individualEuropean markets themselves. Even though

more syndicated shows are now being heard on Europeanstations than were a year ago, syndicators must localisetheir products to the individual country and market if audi-ences, broadcasters and advertisers are to reap the benefits.

According to Ed Mann, vice chairman at PremiereRadio Network (PRN)'s Paris operations, programmemakers must listen to what the broadcasters have to say inorder to fashion an effective tool for the potential advertis-er.

Says Mann, "On the surface of it, things are taking offfor syndication compared to a year ago. I think havinginformation at hand from broadcasters working day-to-dayin these markets is a tremendous help. Knowing broadcast-ers want programmes that are localised and tailored to eachmarket opens more doors for syndicators. We will see adecrease in the 'no thank yous' from stations and a sharpincrease in the 'maybes' and 'yeses'."

Mann uses PRN's "Plain Wrap" as an example of tailor-ing a programme for the European market. The show,scripted in German. has just been re -started in Nuremberg

"Knowing that broadcasterswant programmes that arelocalised and tailored to eachmarket opens more doors."

-Ed Mann

and will be heard in three more German markets nextmonth. The weekly programme features 70 songs andinterviews with international artists. But, says Mann, witha German script tailored for the station, the show does notcome across to the audience as something foreign andgeneric.

A more definitive way to localise programmes is toincorporate a station's playlist into a chart show. "It givesbroadcasters the opportunity, in their own language, tofashion a programme that local sponsors, as well as the lis-teners, will find attractive," Mann explains.

Marketing StrategyInternational advertisers, particularly from the US, are

starting to see the advantage of planning a country -by -country and market -by -market strategy. "We have advertis-ers asking us 'Can we go pan-European?'," says Mann,"But instead of blanketing Europe with a campaign, wegive them a country -by -country look. Also, I believeanother key to attracting advertisers is granting them exclu-sivity in the particular market. Look at the UK. Only 2% ofthe total advertising spend is on radio. Syndicators have tolook for new money."

Mann adds the bottom line is to "keep focused on thefact that programming is a local issue. Then hopefully we'llfind few problems, and can turn it into a win -win situationfor everybody."

Mann believes more syndicators from the UK and theUS should look to mainland Europe for expansion if theyare willing to adapt Euro-tailoring for their programmes.The only way syndicators can get a toe -hold on Europe isto test the waters. "We all have our own style and niche andif we can offer a shopping mall effect, then the attractionwill be there," he says.

Siobhan Crampsey, station relations manager at MCMNetworking/UK, says along with the fall of the Berlinwall, broadcasting barriers inhibiting syndicators have alsocollapsed during the last year or so. "Markets in easternEurope, as well as western Europe have opened up to new

Tim Blackmore

ideas. Hungary and Czechoslovakia want to keep up withthe rest of the world."

Station IdentityTangible evidence of successful syndicated program-

ming in Europe came in the form of a silver medal forMCM's "Rocksat" at this year's New York Festival's RadioProgramming and Promotions Awards. The series, broad-cast in English to 400 stations in 20 countries, claims to beEurope's first interactive satellite radio programme with anaudience of three million. Guests, who have included PhilCollins and Paul McCartney, answer telephone questionsfrom listeners in between tracks from their latest releases.Although still seeking major sponsorship, the programmeoffers airtime to individual networks and stations for theirsales staff to sell.

Crampsey concedes that even though the English broad-cast of "Rocksat" is successful, a regularly scheduled pro-gramme such as MCM's "Coca Cola Hot 100 Chart Show"must be multilingual to work. "Although the contents ofthe programme could be similar for each station, it has tobe scripted and tailored for each market and country. Thisis first of all so that people know what station they are lis-tening to," she says.

"With every project you have to work closely with thebroadcasters. It might take five or six visits to a station ornetwork but it makes things a lot easier. Nobody knowswhat appeals to the listeners better than the stations them-selves. It is OK for the syndicators to have a central idea.But we have to be flexible enough to adapt and tailor thatidea for individual markets."

Tom Rounds, VP of Radio Express (RE) (which pro-duces the American Top 40 show), thinks Europe is apotential goldmine. "I think Europe is developing as quick-ly as we can accommodate it. But like anything, you just

Tom Rounds

can't start it up overnight."Rounds concurs with Mann and Crampsey that a con-

cept must be moulded to fit an individual station or mar-ket. "The days of an international star playing hits are fad-ing. Flexiblity is the key word. We want to establish anenvironment, but we don't want to rock the boat. We wantto work into their structure to localise a programme."

One of RE's latest packages is "Love Songs," a five -hour nightly request and dedication show which has provedsuccessful on Coast FM in Los Angeles. RE plans to trainhosts from stations in several countries to manage andlocalise the programme. "Sure, it's an American concept,but the love songs in the show are established internationalhits presented by local hosts," Rounds explains.

"Love Songs," which targets the 18-35 female audience,has tapped multi -national sponsorship support from a per-sonal care product company, according to Rounds.

SponsorshipLanguage and cultural barriers aren't the only obstacles

syndicators must face, according to Crampsey. "It is a chal-lenge to get sponsored programmes out to Europe. Adver-tisers have to realise the potential of radio. Pan -Europeansyndication is relatively new, so we have the responsibilityto show the advertiser what can be done."

Since the pan-European programmes are distributed ona barter system, like most in the US, where the stationsdon't receive compensation for airing the programmes, it isimperative that advertisers come up with a separate budgetfor each syndication project, apart from their regular radiobudgets. "Our aim is to get a larger spend on radio. Weappeal to sponsors that support radio across theboard-those using radio at the present time," Crampseyexplains.

Another frustration is waiting for an answer from asponsor of a programme that will be distributed to severaldifferent markets in Europe. "Sometimes we have to waitfor a response from the sponsor's office in each market. It

"Nobody knows what appeals tothe listeners better than the sta-tions themselves."- Siobhan Crampsey

would be an advantage if we could go to just one pan-European contact," Crampsey says.

Again, the real problem in distributing pan-Europeanprogrammes is money, Rounds says. "The only limitationis trying to get advertisers to divert money from othermediums to radio. We have to show them radio is a goodbuy." Another drawback-in light of the development ofsyndication in Europe-is the lack of concise data on whatadvertisers are doing in a specific market or country.Rounds points out, "What is needed is cohesive researchfor each country, then combined and made available tosponsors. Right now, they don't have a clue."

Rounds maintains that syndication is competition -driv-en and, therefore, everybody benefits. "Programme qualityis what makes it." A quality and popular programme that isexclusive to a station and advertiser in a particular marketis ideal.

There is, however, some dissension among the ranks.PD Tim Blackmore at UK -based Unique Broadcastingthinks only the occasional live performance by a majorartist will stimulate any real pan-European interest. Multi-lingual scripts are all well and good, but the market's musi-cal wants are as diverse as their cultures.

Says Blackmore," I never expected syndicated pro-gramming to take off around Europe, and I don't think ithas. It is limited to the live music events. There are somany things working against you like the language barri-ers. Besides, the programming is different. What works inLondon won't be appealing in Frankfurt. It's different in theUK. We share a common language and lifestyle.

It would be arrogant for us to assume that the Frenchshould use programmes produced and aired in Britainwhen they are capable of producing the programmingthemselves." Mike McGeever



Basic Elements Of Database Telemarketingby Michael Lonneke and

Jeff Green

With marketing costs rising eachyear, the practise of telemarketing,or database marketing as it is fre-quently called these days, is grow-ing in popularity as a cume-gener-ating vehicle. It is not a system ormethod for building big quarter-hour numbers for a radio station;only the station's programmingcan do that. Telemarketing canonly cause people to sample aradio station. That's all any mar-keting can do.

How TelemarketingWorks

The basic elements of telemar-keting involve calling prospectivelisteners and asking them to sam-ple your station. The phone num-bers may be called at random, orbetter yet, come from purchased orcultivated lists of people whomatch your station's target demo-graphics/psychographics. Cultivat-

ed lists may include recent contestparticipants, people who register atstation promotions or point -of -pur-chase locations, etc. Some stationshave bags of postcards from listen-ers trying to win a contest that canbe used as a start to your databaseif they are not outdated.

Research indicates callingpeople at work results in moresampling than trying to reach themat home. After the initial contact ismade, the radio station adds theprospective listener to its database,and follows up with individualreminder or thank -you letters,preferably hand -signed by a sta-tion executive.

Sometimes these letters includebirthday greetings, merchandisediscount coupons, an invitation toplay an off -air contest, a certificatefor a free dinner, or other personaltouches to say you care about thelistener and want them to be partof your station's "family."

Telemarketing is effectivebecause it follows the tenets of

effective selling. Most important,it asks for the order.

Getting The OrderLet's examine four cardinal

rules for selling, which applydirectly to telemarketing for radio:

First, qualify your prospect. Besure you're talking to the decision -maker. Second, find out what yourprospect wants and adapt yourproduct to meet a need or solve aproblem. Next, ask for the order.Finally, close-get the order orcommitment and follow up bystaying in touch to be sure the cus-tomer is happy.

Telemarketing for radio sta-tions follows each tenet exactly. Itqualifies the prospect by asking ifthey are, in fact, a radio listener. Itmeets a need for theprospect-entertainment. It asksthe person to switch to the stationfor sampling. It closes the deal bygetting a commitment and thename/address of the person. It fol-lows up with first-class mail, and

the person's name goes into thestation database for later re -con-tact.

MeasuringEffectiveness

Measuring marketing effective-ness by comparing results with costis one of the most worthwhile exer-cises any marketer can do. Howev-er, when comparing direct market-ing such as this to mass marketing,the extreme differences in methodsand execution make it unwise tomeasure one kind of marketingwith another kind's metre stick.

Telemarketing, like all directmarketing, can actually be mea-sured in commitments. You knowexactly who and how many peoplemade the commitment to try yourstation. With mass marketing, youcan only estimate the number andcome up with an approximatenumber of impressions. One kindof marketing is not necessarily bet-ter than another; they're just differ-ent.

If we divide a telemarketingbudget by the number of net sam-plers enlisted, we'll come up with acost -per -net -sampler quotient.There is no comparable value inthe measurement of mass market-ing, because there is no way toactually list those who are tryingthe station as a result of any massmarketing effort. Still, some persistin ridiculous comparisons of cost -per -impression with cost -per -sam-pler.

Direct marketing should not bemeasured by mass marketing stan-dards, and vice versa. The truemeasure of marketing effectivenessfor a radio station is cume for bothmass marketing and direct market-ing.

Planning A Killer 4th Quarterby Irwin Pollack

Ask more than 60% of salespeo-ple what their fourth-quarter goalis and they'll typically say, "Mygoal is to bill as much as possibleeach month," or "I work as muchas possible, makes sales callseach day and bring in as muchbusiness as I can each month. Oh,I try to collect all my receivablestoo."

Managers are starting torealise, however, that whenthere's no plan, there's no guaran-tee of reaching a sales goal. Hereare tips to help your salespeopleachieve goals during the fourthquarter.

Smart GoalsList each of your goals in

"SMART" terms. SMART is

made up of:Specific Goals. Each goal

should be specific. Instead of,"My goal is to get ABC Bread onthe air soon," a more specificgoal would be , "Through effec-tive presentations, I plan to getABC Bread on the air by Decem-ber 1 with an order for at least$2.500."

Measurable goals. Each goalshould be in quantitative, mea-surable terms. Target dates, orderamounts and percentage increas-es should be part of each goal.

Attainable goals. It would begoing a bit overboard to suggestthat you could increase yourbilling six times from one quarterto the next. "Pie in the sky" goalprojections are unrealistic andonly set up individuals and man-agement for disappointment.

Realistic goals. (You maywant to refer to them as "chal-lenging.") High achievers usuallyare the guilty ones here. Listinggoals that you know are attain-able and would require little orno work is not making goalschallenging. Experts suggest thatthe purpose of setting high goalsis to keep reaching for higherground.

Timely goals. Without pro-jected dates for your goals, therewould be no method to measureyour success in achieving thosegoals. "I plan to close thisaccount by November 15" is theway to put goals on a timetable.

Once you have mastered theart of documenting goals in their"SMART" terms, it's time tochart out your course for thefourth quarter.

To do this, announce that bythe third week of this monthsalespeople need to block out anhour with the sales manager toreview their plans for the quarter.

The quarterly plan should bewritten, bound and presented inreport form during the salesper-son's quarterly meeting. Thereport could include:

1. Accomplishments: newaccounts, rate increases, actualbilling vs. quota, etc.

2. Disappointments: ac-counts that were either lost or notdeveloped to their fullest poten-tial.

3. Fears: Let the salespersoninterject concerns. Let the air becleared.

4. Short Learning Objec-tives: This could include inven-tory management, getting to deci-

sionmakers, etc.5. Fourth -Quarter Short

Term Accounts: List eight to 10accounts in SMART form.

6. Main Problem DirectAccount/Agency: List a plan ofattack.

7. Realistic Billing Goal ForFourth Quarter: set by thesalesperson and, if necessary,management can nudge themhigher.

Conducting A Quality InterviewIn Todays Job Market

Today's job market is more com-petitive than ever before. Whilethis means radio stations are like-ly to find more qualified employ-ees, it also means they typicallyspend more money separatinggood candidates from less capa-ble ones. No station can afford tolose the interest of qualifiedapplicants due to poor interview-ing techniques.

Here are some interviewingtips, courtesy of NAB and SmallBusiness Reports:

I. Have the job descriptionclearly defined so that you knowwhat qualities you want in a can-didate.

2. Divide interviewingreponsibilities to help reducerepetitious questions.

3. Help out-of-town appli-cants with transportation andhotel reservations to reduce theirstress level.

4. Don't dwell on negativeaspects of the resume. Ask appli-cants what they have learnedfrom negative experiences.

5. Avoid keeping candidateswaiting before the interview.Also try to keep them informedof their status afterwords to helpprevent them from becomingfrustrated with the applicationprocess.

Ten Steps To Closing More Cold Callsby John Fellows

Here's a step-by-step method to getyou high -quality appointments anda shortened selling process. It letsthe decisionmaker feel in controland positions you as a real personwith something potentially valuableto offer (not a sales weasel withproduct to move).

1. Start teasing down buyerbarriers with the first words youspeak. Immediately identify whoyou are and what you represent.

2. Gain the support of thereceptionist. Ask for and use his orher name. Ask if the decisionmakeris "available" rather than "in." Askif the individual will pass along themessage if the decisionmaker is notavailable. Thank the receptionistfor his or her help. Always leave amessage, even if it's your 10th call

that day. Keep a record of each call.3. Appeal to the buyer's best

interests. Let the individual knowyou have something (i.e., an"opportunity") he or she may findinteresting.

4. Continue teasing downbuyer barriers using words suchas "may," "might," and "could."These words say "you decide."

5. Appeal to the buyer's desirefor gain. Let the individual knowhis or her sales could increase withyour offer.

6. Appeal to the buyer's senseof reason. Use words such as "sen-sible" and "effective."

7. Establish the offer's credi-bility. Use phrases like "time -test-ed" and "other businesses likeyours have been successful with..."

8. Show respect for the buy-er's time. Use words like "brief."

9. Establish in the buyer'smind the expectation that he orshe will be given enough informa-tion to make a decision when youmeet. Lay the foundation for a non -manipulative, non -confrontational,one -call -close that can easily lead toa long-term relationship.

10. Confirm the value of theappointment. Send a brief, hand-written note that includes the date,time and place of your meeting.Enclose your card and, if possible,an article of interest to the buyer.Call again the day before theappointment to confirm the avail-ability of the decisionmaker to meetyou at that time.

AXXIS

Access All Areas/Live - ElectrolaDortmund -based Axxis is a realEuropean hard rock band. Imag-ine them marching through thegates of Valhalla while HarryOellers' keyboards boast thesound of a clarion -call. The trackLittle Look Back on their new livealbum Access All Areas explainsthis bombastic style. Althoughthey have a style of their own, youcan clearly identify the UriahHeep and Iron Maiden overtones.This third album, after 1988'sKingdom Of The Knight and1989's //, captures the bestmoments of their previous efforts,plus two new songs, Back To TheWall and Trash In Tibet. It con-firms their status as one of theleading German hard rock bands.

Music Of Quality And DistinctionVolume 2 - TenAfter nine years, Heaven 17'sMartyn Ware is finally out withthis unexpected follow-up to thespecial British Electronic Foun-dation (B.E.F.) project. For thosewho are not familiar with MusicOf Quality And Distinction Vol-ume 1, Ware carefully selectedinternational artists to cover clas-sic pop songs, with unforgettablesoul songs as the common thread.

Only Tina Turner and BillyMacKenzie have remained ofthose first sessions back in 1982,the first singing a smashing ver-sion of Sam Cooke's A Change IsGonna Come. The most strikingcontribution is Terence TrentD'Arby's soulful adaption of BobDylan's It's Alright Mama, I'mOnly Bleeding.

Sly Stone's undestructable songFamily Affair, aptly covered byLalah Hathaway-daughter ofsoul legend Donny Hath-away-was the first single to bereleased from this album. The sec-ond single I Don't Know Why ILove You, featuring Scritti Polit-ti's Green Garthside, evokes allthe vitality of the original artistStevie Wonder. Other artistsinvolved on this musical docu-ment are Chaka Khan, Billy Pre-

ston, Richard Darbyshire,Tashan, Mavis Staples andGhida De Palma.

B.G. THE PRINCE OF RAPThe Power Of Rhythm - Dance PoolB.G. The Prince Of Rap is toppriority this autumn for the DancePool label within Sony MusicGermany. He already topped theBillboard Hot Dance Music withthe single This Beat Is Hot. Thedebut album, The Power Of TheRhythm, is out now in G/A/S, pre-ceeded by the new single Give MeThe Music. Because of the prob-lems getting airplay for danceproduct, it has been serviced toradio in a special edit.

THE BEATMASTERS

Life And Soul - Rhythm King/EpicThis London -based three-piece,two guys-Paul Carter andRichard Walmsley-and onewoman, Manda Glanfield-enjoyed a string of UK dance hitsat the end of the '80s. Becausethose singles were fronted by newartists, they fueled many careers.It marked the first taste of chartsuccess for the Cookie Crew(Rock Da House), MC Merlin(Who's In The House) and BettyBoo (Hey DJ/1 Can't Dance ToThe Music You're Playing). Also,they helped P.P Arnold (Burn ItUp) back in the saddle.

The new album Life AndSoul-the follow-up to 1989'sAnywayawanna-follows thesame pattern, with guest vocalistshandling seven of the tracks; theremaining tracks are instrumentalsand include the Specials -mouldedNight In Action. Elaine Vassel,who sings the opening trackDunno What It Is (About You) alsosang the first Definition OfSound single. Rowetta, who singsGive Me A Reason rapped withGeorge Clinton on his recent tourand gives a stunning performanceon the first single Boulevard OfBroken Dreams.

The music on this album rangesfrom hip hop to reggae and jazzdance. Well, dance programmers.you've got yourself a top -ratealbum.

THE BLUE AEROPLANES

Beatsongs - EnsignMaybe R.E.M's Popsong '89 wastwo years too early. With the end-less string of good pop albums thisyear, it will definitely be "Popsong'91." This eight -piece outfit fromBristol delivers a worthy follow-up to last year's album Swagger.With American producer LarryHirsh (Los Lobos), a "pupil" ofgrandmaster T -Bone Burnett,they have found the right crystalclear sound for their music.

Album rock programmers willfind in the moody folk track JackLeaves & Back Spring, featuringviolinist David Mansfield (BobDylan), a climax for their shows.Many eyebrows will be raised bytheir boogie version of PaulSimon's The Boy In The Bubble.This surprising track will bereleased as the second single offtheir album.

porting the release of album andsingle with a full European tour,covering six countries, as specialguests of Siouxsie & The Ban-shees. This will be followed byheadline dates in Scandinavia dur-ing November.

BLUE BLOTShopping For Love - AriolaEvery now and then, the good oldblues enjoys a revival. In the slip-stream of youngster Robert Cray,the veterans of the genre, such asJohn Lee Hooker and BuddyGuy, got charted. In Europe, theblues lives like never before. Bel-gian band Blue Blot is one of theleaders of the new generation ofthe "Euro-blues." They don't limitthemselves to the boring 12 -barblues variety; on the contrary, theyadd a spoonful of jazz and soulelements, plus some latin, andeven fusion. Lead singer LukeWalter, Jr. sounds as relaxed assoul singer Bill Withers. The manhas got a remarkably supple soul-ful voice.

The success of their secondalbum Bridge To Your Heart-co-produced by B.B. King's sidemanCalvin Owens-convinced BMGAriola to re-release their 1987independent debut album Shop-ping For Love. It will be issuedwith the addition of three remixesfrom Bridge To Your Heart. Oneof those tracks, Who Is He, hasalready been released as the newsingle. As it happens, it's an oldBill Withers song.

BoHSE ONKELZWir Ham' Noch Lange NichtGenug - Bacilus/BellaphonEver heard of a metal version ofGerman archetype punk rock bandDie Toten Hosen? If not, thencheck out the Btihse Onkelz ( the"Angry Uncles"). They see nodanger and don't care about trafficlights or speed limits. It's music ofthe "never mind the road block"type. These guys must have thecomplete works of Motiirhead athome. Their label debut for Bel-laphon, Wir Ham' Noch LangeNicht Genug, is appropriatelytitled. Translated it means: WeHaven't Had Enuff Yet.

BOMB THE BASSUnknown Territory - RhythmKing/EpicDance and alternative program-mers in search of something reallyinnovative should check outBomb The Bass. This is an actwhich really adds something newto the music of our time, as wit-nessed by their 1988 UK hit BeatDis. The band's name derives fromthe hip hop term "bombing,"

which means spray painting, andTim Simenon, the creative mas-termind, bombs the bassline withideas. His work could be easilycompared to Massive Attack or tothe soundscapes of On -U -Soundstaff producer Adrian Sherwood(The Popgroup, African Head -charge and Gary Clail).

On the second Bomb The Bassalbum, Unknown Territory, theOn -U -Sound sessioneers maketheir mark, with the most promi-nent being the contribution of theTackhead rhythm section percus-sionist Keith LeBlanc and (for-mer Sugar Hill Gang) bassistDoug Wimbish.

This month, theOn -U -Sound System tour Europeunder the Bomb The Bass ban-ners. Every concert will be called"A Night Of Interference."

THE BUTTERFLY EFFECTTrip - Radium/MNWButterfly Effect's debut albumTrip is not meant to be some refer-ence to a drug trip, but instead, totravelling music -whetherthrough dreams, through fantasiesor in physical reality.

This Swedish band is some-where between the Shamen, theKLF and 808 State. The differ-

ence between Butterfly Effect andthese acts is the song structure,and the vocals are more at theforefront of the material. Some-times music and lyrics have thesame accessible monotony of UKpop poet Annabel Lamb, onlywith male vocals. There is also aleaning to the '60s psychedelicmusic where Syd Barret/PinkFloyd and the Beatles creepthrough many of the songs. Thiscollection is really interesting stufffor alternative programmers, whileEHR should check out the poppytrack We Are One Forever.

BZNCongratulations - MercuryThe CD Congratulations marks the25th anniversary of Holland's mostpopular pop band. The news thatthere's a new album out is enoughfor a rush at the shops. There is, infact, no need for big marketingcampaigns. The new album-plat-inum at the day of its release(100.000 copies)-was preceededby the single It Happened 25 YearsAgo, a medley containing big rockand roll hits, plus one of their ownhits, 1976's Mon Amour. BecauseBZN hails from the fishing villageVolendam, their style is called "eelpop," inspired by both rock rolland traditional Dutch music.Together with the now defunctband the Cats, they have proved tobe the village's best ambassadorsthroughout the years.

THE CROSS

Blue Rock - Flectrola

Roger Taylor, drummer with thelegendary rock band Queen, livesa dual existence with two souls.Apart from his everyday job, he'salso the leadsinger/guitarist ofThe Cross. An excellent singer.just remember him crooning the

! Queen crowd pleaser I'm In LoreWith You. On the third album.Blue Rock, his voice comes outbest on the David Bowie -mould-ed ballad Hand Of Fools.The Cross is something complete-ly different than Queen. It's lessover the top and theatrical, andfar more down to earth. Sonic-

! times they sound like a '90s ver-sion of Mott The Hoople, asdemonstrated on the track LifeChanges. On their new album thegroup has refined their classicrock sound in lively up -temponumbers like Dirty Mind and BodAttitude, and melodic straightrock songs like Millionaire andthe first single, New Dark Ages.The latter track is also includedon the CD -insert, enclosed withthis issue.

D -WORD

Da 1 & Only - Bite/CNRDutch hip hop collective The Ulti-mate Alliance is the nursery -stockfor many talented rappers, wholater embark on solo careers. Thefemale rap duo Def La Desh &The Fresh Witness and male rap-per D -Word are two acts whorecently broke out of the alliance.Nevertheless, they still collaboratewith producer DJ Cooly D, themastermind behind all the pro-jects. D -Word's solo album Da IAnd Only marks a new milestonein Dutch rap history. The singleGet'n Funk E, enhanced with sam-ples of Chic's Good Times, is agood bet for the dance format.

DAREBlood From Stone - A&MThis is another rockbird to risefrom the ashes of Phil Lynnot'sgreat rock legacy, Thin Lizzy.After Dare's very promising debutalbum, Out Of The Silence, thegroup returns with the moremature, harder -edged effort BloodFrom Stone.

British melodic rock in the besttradition, the album gives us plen-ty of twin guitar leads and celtic-inspired riffing. Sometimes remi-niscent of Gary Moore, and thusechoing old shades of Thin Lizzy,Dare's music can stand in its ownright, thriving on outstandingmusicianship and the ability towrite good rock songs in today's

increasingly over -saturated envi-ronment. Darren Wharton'svoice and compositions somehowmanage to sound perfect for theadult -oriented rock circuit, yet arenever polished or contrived. KeithOlsen, lately of Scorpions fame,was the man that managed topackage and enhance these quali-ties into the fine effort that BloodFrom Stone has become. With aband like Dare, that couldn't havebeen too difficult.

DEF LA DESH & THEFRESH WITNESSCheck Out The Ska - CNRThis Dutch female rap duo in aCookie Crew -mould started theircareer as a part of hip hop collec-tive Ultimate Alliance, a projectof producer DJ Cooly D. Nowthey have recorded Check Out TheSka, their first single under theirown name. They have at least asmuch crossover potential to othermarkets as their fellow country-man Tony Scott, who is Holland'smost famous rap ambassador.

MICHEL VAN DYKEOne Life - ChrysalisAfter his first self -titled soloalbum (1989), half German, halfDutch artist Michel van Dykeformed his live band, with whomhe toured the USSR, and after-wards, recorded the follow-up,One Life in Normandy.

LA FILLE D'ERNESTLa Fille D'Ernest - AriolaVeve "Shake" Mazimpaka(vocals), originally hailing fromZaire, and Belgian rocker Lack(guitar) started blending Africanmusic and rock 'n' roll. Laterbassist Bruno Melon and drum-mer Julien Dieudonne joinedthem. In a way, La Fille D'Ernestdoes the the same thing as LosLobos: these L.A. inhabitants alsomix their (Mexican) roots with themusic they hear on the radio everyday. As a little girl, Shake wasraised with African music and therecords of French rock star John-ny Halliday, so for her it's a natu-ral mix.

From day one, Belgium's mostdemanded rock producer Jean-Marie Aerts (of TC Matic andUrban Dance Squad fame)encouraged them to continue theiractivities. Finally, he producedtheir debut album, to be releasedin November. The first single.Tout Bouge, gives a good idea ofthis high -profile product.

LAURIE FREELOVE

Smells Like Truth - EnsignAmerican singer/songwiterrie Freelove debuts with an albumfull of "difficult music." Albumrock programmers will have ahard time fitting Smells Like Truthin, but they should start with themost accessible track, theDylanesque 0 My Heart, and thenincreasingly add some more.Freelove's voice is as flexible asher introspective song material.Like a chameleon, her colourchanges with every track. Onemoment she sounds like Mari-anne Faithful, the next, she'sreminiscent of label mate SineadO'Connor. It's intriguing from thebeginning until the end.

MYLO FREEMANMylo Freeman - ColumbiaThis young gifted Amsterdam -based singer started her career as a

Lau -

painter. Maybe that's why the firstsingle of her self -titled debutalbum is called Missing Colours.It's the type of song that will workwell on both the EHR and thedance format. Together with pro-ducer Steve Clisby, she wrote adelightful set of dance/pop songs.Gifted with one of the mostexpressive voices on the Dutchscene, she injects the genre withsoul. Her voice suits the materiallike a glove, from the funky stom-per Best Enemies with Africanovertones, to the more laid backmaterial on Cinderella.

DORIAN GREYRebecca - ColumbiaWhile the trend is to go for danceor guitar -oriented rock, Dutch/Irish singer Dorian Gray- theartist name for concert promotorBerry James-revives the synth -laden pop. Don't let yourself bemisled by the surprising Spanishguitar -intro of the opening track,Good Morning America, on hisdebut album Rebecca. It mightsend you off in the wrong direc-tion.Once you think of listening to thenew Gipsy Kings album, you'reright in the middle of a high-ener-gy pop song. The tone is exam-plary for the complete album,which is fully packed with intelli-gently written pop songs, per-formed with a lot of pathos.

Neverthe-less, their old fans from the under-ground scene shouldn't be disap-pointed.

PRENTISSPrentiss - AriolaAn American singer recording inBrussels is not so strange any-

more. Since Belgium was thecountry where the dance crazestarted as far as Europe was con-cerned, this makes a lot of sense.Prentiss first established herEuropean career with the lead rolein the famous French musical -comedy group Le GrandOrchestre Du Splendid. Now sheis fully committed to her new roleas a singer. Having a great need toexpress her passions and to devel-

op her own style, she chose towrite all of her lyrics, as well as tocompose some of her songs. Thesingle Love Is The Answer excel-lently previews her self -titleddebut album. She proves to be anexcellent apprentice of the Soul IISoul school of a soulful and pol-ished dance style.

TERRY REID

The Driver - WEAThose not familiar with TerryReid's 25 -year career might notknow he was once highly recom-mended by the Rolling Stones,the Who and Led Zeppelin. Tomost people, he was simply"Superlungs", the man who wouldsing the soul out of a song. Some-times he would faint on stage, thatwas how much music meant tohim.

Even after 12 years of recordinginactivity, his is still one of theclassic voices in rock 'n' roll. Theonly thing this man's ever neededis good song material. No problemhere: he covers such great rocktracks as the Spencer DavisGroup's Gimme Some Lovin' andthe Waterboys' The Whole Of TheMoon. At the same time, a sparseacoustic arrangement, like his owncomposition Hand Of Dimes (oneof the five tracks produced byTrevor Horn), also is enough forhim to excel.

For this new album, Reid hascontinued his collaborative spirit,gathering together friends who

also make an impressive cast,including: Joe Walsh, TimothySchmidt (the Eagles), AlanWhite (Yes), Lee Miles, BrettTuggle (David Lee Roth), Enya,Howard Jones, Jai Winding andStewart Copeland.

REPTILE SMILE

Who Makes The Rules - EpicMore and more hard rock bandsgo back to the blues rock roots ofthe genre. The influence of bandslike AC/DC, Aerosmith and eventhe Rolling Stones is growing bythe day. Little Ceasar andHavana Black are prime exam-ples of this retro-rock phe-nomenon.

Dropping the names of all thesebands isn't so strange when youtalk about Swedish band ReptileSmile. The five band membershave all been fed and nourishedwith the basic gutsy, rowdy, clas-sic hard rock of the '70s. SingerPeter Shapiro has the same driveas Aerosmith's Steven Tyler. Thefunny thing is that in the originalline-up of the band-when theywere still called BoomerangBabies-he was guitarist insteadof singer. The moment he andMartin Karlegfird-the originalsinger, now guitarist-tradedplaces, the fire really started burn-ing. Their 1990 debut album Auto-matic Cool got rave reviews in thespecialised magazines, while theband proved its value on a nation-wide tour through Sweden sup-porting funk metal band the Elec-tro Boys. Their excellent secondalbum Who Makes The Rules canonly strengthen their position.Tracks like Hey Mama and WildLife, the first single, are destinedto grace the airwaves of rockradio.

TERRY RONALDRoma - MCATerry Ronald is an exceptionallygifted singer/songwriter. Thisyoung Londoner has one of themost soulful voices heard in a

long while. His musical influencesinclude Marvin Gaye, DinahWashington and especiallyAretha Franklin, as can be heardon his debut album Roma. It's nosurprise, because a lot ofFranklin's sidemen are featured onthis album, recorded in the US.

Maybe it's because of thealbum's title, but a lot of airplay isreported from Italy. Calm TheRage is the track Italian stations

go for. But this blue-eyed soulsinger-reminiscent of GeorgeMichael and the re -styledBros-has more aces up hissleeve. AC programmers search-ing for tracks to appeal to their lis-teners, can check out the balladSave Me From Myself or the up -tempo song Live Forever. Anotherstrong facet to this gem is thecrystal-clear production by Har-vey Jay Goldberg and JimmyBiondolillo.

THE SEPTEMBER WHENMother, I've Been Kissed - WEAThe second album Mother, I'veBeen Kissed by Stavanger -basedband the September When is amilestone for melodic rock. Thecrispy production by Knut Bohnmakes it even more enjoyable. Hestarted his career as a pupil ofNile Rodgers and Lenny Kaye.The acoustic guitar is upfront inthe picture, very reminiscent ofother great pop bands such asR.E.M. and Aztec Camera.However, the track Bullet Me, thefirst single off the album, is differ-ent than the other 13 tracks. ThisNorwegian top 10 hit is far moredance -oriented. The album-nowreleased across Europe-reachedno. 1 in their home territory inApril, and it's still doing well inthe charts. On the third single,Where You Go I Go, four bonustracks are included, recorded liveat the Midtfyn festival this sum-mer.

SLUKA

Fear Of Ordinary Lik - SaarAlmost every band's wish is tobe big in Japan. American rockhand Sluka-named after main-stay Christopher Sluka- -achieved Japanese stardom lonebefore they received any recog-nition in their homeland.

After the release and successof their first single Sunday'sChild, which reached no. 6 inJapan's Billboard magazine in1085, the group was brought toJapan to record their firstal hum. Emotional Battlefield.fur the Mitsubishi -owned Mel-dac Records label.

Unfortunately, Meldac didnot release the album outside ofJapan. The Italian Saar label.however, got the Europeanrights for this year's follow-upalbum. Fear Of Ordinary Life.

Their music boasts a melodicrock style with experimentalovertones. The track Just ADream listens like a forgottenKurt Weil/Berthold Brechtclassic. Enhanced with a beauti-fulstring anatwement. it

breathes the atmosphere ofinterbellum Berlin.

The atmospheric Under TheRug is selected as the trackwhich is included on the CD -insert. enclosed with this week'sissue of M&M.

THE SMITHEREENS

Blow Up - CapitolThe Smithereens and R.E.M. havea lot in common. They both drawinfluences of late '60s guitar -driv-en rock. The spectre of the leg-endary Byrds looms high overthem. In their early days, theyshared producer Don Dixon. Also,Pat DiNizio's songs have the samepop sensibility. But if it comes topopularity, that's where their waysdiverge.

Tell Me When Did Things GoSo Wrong and Top Of The Pops,the three -chord lead single off thistop -rate pop album, must end allthe chart injustice against themthroughout the years. Togetherwith Diane Warren, DiNiziowrote Get A Hold Of My Heart,which should be the new NightsIn White Satin. Country singerCarlene Carter is credited asbackup vocalist on that particulartrack. The strings -dominated trackIf You Want The Sun To Shinemarks the first effort of new song-writer duo DiNizio/JulianLennon. This brilliant album isproduced by much in demand EdStasium (Ramones, LivingColour, Cavedogs).

STILLBORN

Permanent SolutionRadium/MNWThe Scandinavian heavy metalscene has a strong reputationacross Europe. Swedish bandStillborn redefines the word"heavy" on their second albumPermanent Solution. Just likeBlack Sabbath in the early '70s,their music is based on stainlesssteel guitar riffs. Now with theworldwide succes of Metallica,they couldn't have timed theirrelease better. New singer Henkeshouts like a young Alice Cooperagainst a wall of sound as high asa skyscraper. Headbanging metalprogrammers should warn theirlisteners to wear a helmet whilelistening to their shows, becauseStillborn will shake the foundationof their homes.

TEMPER TEMPER

Temper Temper - TenAlthough they hail from the nowmighty Manchester, Temper Tem-per-Melanie Williams and EricGooden-don't quite fit the "mad-chester" type. They have danceablemusic in common, but are probablybest described as a young versionof the prolific soul duo Womack &Womack.

When you hear Temper Tem-per's music, the fire is apparent.The music on their self -titled, self -produced debut album has anunmistakeable multi -format appeal.The opening track Talk Much, the

first single back in January, suitedboth the EHR and dance format.The AC format should pay someattention as well to the new single,Like We Used To. Only the real tal-ents in the pop/dance genre canhandle a precious ballad as apt asMelanie Williams does. Singing asconfidently as Shirley Bassey orBette Midler, she makes the song atrue gem.

GIANNI TIRELLI

La Qualita' Dell' Acqua - SaarWith the open European marketin 1993, some artists havealready started breaking the cul-tural borders. The album LaQua/ito' Dell' Aqua by Italiansinger Gianni Tirelli can easilyhe filed under "pan-European"music. He doesn't limit himselfto singing in his mother tongue.The self -written repertoire onthis strong album is partly sungin Spanish, French and English,while his style ranges from pop.to blues, reggae and jazz influ-ences. But he never denies histypical Mediterranean tempera-ment. Could he be the next Ital-ian after Zuechero making it bigabroad? His sophisticated stylecan be checked out by all readersof M&M, because the trackTutto Da Solo is included on the,CD -insert, enclosed withweek's issue.

MIDGE URE

Pure - AristaThe release of Midge Ure's thirdsolo album Pure marks his debutfor Arista/BMG. The main themeof this album is the highs and lowsof love, mirrored in differentstyles of music. The man whomasterminded a string of Ultra -vox hits-the biggest was 1981'sVienna-is still a melody -orientat-ed person. On the cheerful firstsingle, Cold, Cold Heart, hesounds rejuvenated, like a teenageBilly Joel. Imagine a marchingband through the Scottish high-lands with Ure on front wavingthe banner.Ure has always been a sociallyconscious man-remember BandAid. The opening track I See

Hope is his vision of the newspouring in from South Africa. Thesong is a strange but powerful mixof African rhythms and an Africanchoir coupled with the sounds ofthe Ullian pipes, played by PaddyMoloney from the Chieftains,who's also featured on the folkytune The Only One. That cut couldgenerate the same results on EHRas Simple Minds's Belfast Childin 1989.

The Violet Hour

THE VIOLET HOUR

The Fire Sermon - EpicThe music of Violet Hour is across between early Kate Bushand Clannad, with a strong senseof underlying sensuality. Thewhole concept, the sleeve designincluded, evokes strong images ofmedieval mysticism. Singer DorisBrendel sounds like ChristinaAmphlett of the diVinyls. Octo-ber will see the band supportingMarillion on a full European tour.

GLORIA ESTEFANLive For Loving You - Columbia EHR

PRODUCER: E. Estefan Jr./Jorge Casas/Clay Ostwald

On the third single off of her Into TheLight album, La Estefan waits for thesecond verse to add her well known Latin

influences. Up to then, the overall feel ismore African. Suddenly a piano slips inand the rhythm changes slightly. Thisclever arrangement adds to the song'sexcitement.

BUDDY GUYMustang Sally- Silvertone R/EHRPRODUCER: John Porter

This version of the Wilson Pickett soulclassic is different from the one includedon his current Damn Right, I've Got TheBlues album. He went back to the studioand re-recorded this single, featuringanother guitar hero, Jeff Beck. It's evenmore ear -blistering now.

THE REMBRANDTSSave Me - Atco EHR

PRODUCER: The Rembrandts

More well -crafted, Beatlesque pop fromthe US duo. Taken from their self -titleddebut album, this new single should fol-low the brush strokes of Just The Way ItIs, Baby to the charts.

A TRIBE CALLED QUESTCheck The Rhime - Jive D/EHRPRODUCER: A Tribe Callled Quest

The first single off the new album TheLow End Theory combines high-speedtalkativeness and a low -paced beat.Already having made the crossover tothe pop audience, they will tighten theirgrip now.

PAUL YOUNGDon't Dream It's Over - Columbia EHR

PRODUCER: Dan Hartman

Young has always recognised the powerof a good composition. Now, with thesuccess of Crowded House, Young'sversion of this Neil Finn song is a caseof excellent timing. Radio Hundert6/Berlin music editor Fritz Schonagelis enthusiastic, "We made it 'superpower play' for two consecutiveweeks-six times a day-the highestrotation you can get here."

ALBUMSJOE COCKERNight Calls - Capitol EHR/AC/RPRODUCER: D.Kortchmar/D.Tickle/J.Lynne

Sheffield steel never rusts, and neitherdoes Cocker's vocal chords. His newesteffort is quite rocky. Strong examples area cover of Gary Wright's 1976 hit Love IsAlive and Out Of The Rain. Once again,Cocker succeeds in making Lennon &McCartney's You've Got To Hide YourLove Away his own. Also recommended ishis version of Elton John's Don't Let TheSun Go Down On Me. The first single, thetitle track, is a midtempo ballad. SaysRadio Peter Flowers/Milan programmedirector Marco Garavelli, "It's a verygood song which fits our format nicely.We play it in-between acts such as DireStraits and Simply Red."

ROBERTA FLACKSet The Night To Music - Atlantic AC

PRODUCER: Arif Mardin

The title of Roberta Flack's new albumshould be taken as a recipe for late nightprogrammers. The queen of laid back soulmusic, who enjoyed her biggest successesin the early '70s with hits like The FirstTime Ever I Saw Your Face and KillingMe Softly, resumed her cooperation withAtlantic staff producer, Arif Mardin. Thetitle track, also the first single, is a mellowduet with Maxi Priest. Programmers whoare into Nathalie Cole might be interestedin Flack's version of Unforgettable.

PRODUCER: George Massenburg

The Cajun crew is back, this time on newlabel Morgan Creek, after a 20 -year runwith Warner Brothers.

The title track is veryreminiscent of the driving Teenage Nervous

PRIVCE &11-E NEWPOWERG13432ATION

Diamonds And Pearls - Paisley Park EHR/D

PRODUCER: Prince & The New Power Generation

Prince's 13th album means less jam and aclearer song structure than has been presenton his last three albums. Apart from currentsingles, Gett Off and Cream, there are manymore singles on this brilliant album. Theimmense variety in styles ranges from thepoppy sing -along tune Daddy Pop to theCurtis Mayfield -moulded soul with a

Caribbean back beat on Willing And Able.Also, there's the sophisticated night club jazzof Strollinc while Walk Don't Walk has a ter-rific traffic arrangement, complete withhonking horns. Comments Kiss FM/Londonhead of music Lindsay Wesker, "The albumis well received here. Our DJs play a lot oftracks of it, so it obviously seems to havesomething for everybody. But there's not onetrack that's really coming forward yet enoughto be voted on our playlist. But that onlygives further proof of the high quality."

RATCATBlind Love - rooArt/Phonogram R/A/EHRPRODUCER: Nick Mainsbridge

The Australian scene is a goldmine for gui-tar -driven rock. Down under, they make theperfect mix of '605 garage rock and energeticpunk. The track Pieces could have been lift-ed from a Buzzcocks songbook. The first sin-gle, Don't Go Now, matches the rhythms ofthe modem Manchester indie bands. The dif-ference is lead singer/guitarist Simon Day'svoice. Instead of being filled with gloom anddoom, he sounds cheerful.

RANDY TRAVISHigh Lonesome - Warner Brothers

PRODUCER: Kyle Lehning

Country's nightingale Travis has alwaysbeen regarded as a great interpreter, but onhis sixth album he introduces himself asan excellent songwriter. The listeners ofspecialised country hours will not be dis-appointed. Travis wrote half of the albumin collaboration with well -establishedsongwriters such as Alan Jackson andDon Schlitz. With the latter, he penned theneo-westem swing classic Oh, What ATime To Be, a song with enough potentialto delight the EHR audience.

Simply RedThis week the green light is flashing for the long awaited fourth Sim-

ply Red album. Out on East West, Mick Hucknall's brilliance on Starstakes a meteoric turn. The 10 Hucknall soul originals-no covers this

time-mark his maturation as a songwriter.

by Robbert Tilli

Simply Red has an indisputably importantcommodity at EHR. At presstime Some-thing Got Me Started, has jumped to thethe no. 2 spot of the EHR Top 40 in threeweeks time, an indicator of how muchtheir comeback has been anticipated.Released in 1989, their last album A NewFlame sold over six million copies world-wide.

Says East West international directorAnne Marie Nicol, "We expect to outsellA New Flame. This is a very mature, hon-est album. Hucknall has developed enor-mously as a person and a songwriter. Theconstellation of musicians complementwhat he does. It's the right album at theright time. I think they will be more suc-cessful than ever in the US."

The American radio situation for Sim-ply Red has changed markedly, comparedto their early days when their blue-eyedsoul had to be broken on black radio first.In the US, the album will be out on FastWest America; their previous efforts wereon Elektra.

The switch to a new label within theWarner Music group was necessarybecause, as Elliot Rashman of So WhatArts management puts it, a "clash ofegos." He adds, "Now that the band is at aturning point in its career, we can't havethese problems. Besides, it made sense tomove to the label we're allied to inEurope, where our relationship is fantas-tic."

In a brilliant collection of songs onStars, Your Mirror showcases Hucknall'stalent for writing soulful pop. The smoothreggae -styled track Model is destined forEHR airwaves. Hucknall made his nameas a superb balladeer with 1985's singleHolding Back The Years off the debutalbum Picture Book. On the tracks ForYour Baby's and How Could It Fall, hedisplays that knack once more, while thetitle track and Wonderland are mid -tempoballads.

Comments Rashman, "This is the pin-nacle of Hucknall's achievements so far.He's a real musician-busy with music 24hours a day. He lives for it, which is veryrare these days. If he's not making music,he's listening to it or compiling it on DATtapes."

Whereas most bands these days tend tooverload their musical arrangements, Sim-ply Red keep things...well...simple. Thesongs on this album-recorded in Con-dulmer Studios near Venice-are notspoilt by producer's tricks. Hucknall andCo. continue to work with producer Stew-art Levine, a collaboration only onceinterrupted while recording the secondalbum, 1987's Men And Women, whichfound Alex Sadkin behind the console.

The line-up has changed since the lastalbum. There are two new band members,bassist Shaun Ward (ex -Everyday Peo-ple) and Japanese drummer Gota Yashiki.The tightness of this new rhythm sectionis proved on the track Freedom, a funkystomper that will set dance floors ablazeacross the globe. The band on the albumwill be the touring band as well on their1992 year -long world tour, which starts inmid -January in the UK.

The title of the new album is one per-fumed with undertones. Are his Stars areference to the European flag? AdmitsRashman, "Hucknall supports the idea of aunited Europe, but with different cultureskeeping their own identity. It's a veryuplifting album; he fights against Englishisolationism. He lives in Milan and speaksfluent Italian. In short, he feels European."

At the moment, the band is on anextensive European promo tour in Hol-land, Germany, France Sweden, Italy andSpain, which will end around Christmas.They are also scheduled for a number ofmajor TV appearances.

Various marketing plans have beendeveloped for different territories. The ini-tial push will be via strong visuals, basedon the album cover design, showingHucknall against a dark blue backgroundof a star spangled heaven. Blue is thecolour of the whole in-store campaign, aspink was for the last Simply Red product.

East West will organise competitions indifferent territories. In Australia, con-tenders can win tickets for one of the twoWembley Arena concerts in London onJanuary 23 and 24. The funniest competi-tion is in France, where you can have agalactic star somewhere in the universenamed after yourself. Says Nicol, "Ourcampaign is initially focused on the visualaspect. After Christmas we'll promotethem via the medium of the tour."

HOLLAND

Mannenkoor Karrespoor Signed to Indisc. Publisher: Arcade. New album: Boeren, Burgers EnBuitenlui, released at the end of October. New single: Lekker Op De Trekker,released on August 19. Currently, it is atno. 5 in Holland. Also, it's a new entry atno. 84 in the Coca-Cola Eurochart Hot100. Its predecessor Mooi Man, is stillholding -at no. 18 in its 17th week on theDutch charts. Recorded at Face Sound/Lemmer. Producer: J. van de Linden/R. vander Zee/M. Hoff. Marketing: Window teasers, baseballcaps, T-shirts, shawls, suspenders andboxer shorts. European releases: The singles are outin the Benelux only.

Sometimes the most unbelievable acts getcharted. That's the case of 20 farmers inHolland, who, united as MannenkoorKarrespoor ("Male Choir Cart -Rut"),were-at the beginning of Septem-ber-enjoying two top 10 hits at the sametime-Mooi Man and Lekker Op De

Trekker. The first has already been in thecharts for 17 weeks. Its gained so manypoints that it will probably end up secondafter Bryan Adams's (Everything I Do) IDo It For You in the Dutch year-end chart.

Mannenkoor Karrespoor has set otherprecedents: they are only the third act inDutch Top 40 history that has managed tomove up again in the charts after havingdropped. The similarity between its twopredecessors-Corry & The Rekels andDe Electronica's, is that they are allDutch -language acts.

The success of this bunch started in thelocal pub of small village Tuk in the east-ern part of Holland. One night the jukeboxsuddenly broke down, so these peopledecided to sing for themselves. After ini-tially releasing and distributing the firstsingle independently, they signed toIndisc. The next big thing will be theOctober album release Boeren, BurgersEn Buitenlui. Management calls are madeby the group itself during local pub meet-ings, including decisions on all promotionand marketing. Royalties reportedly go tocharity.

FRANCE

Lagaf Signed to Flarenasch. Publisher: Lagaf. Management: Hubert/Paris. New album: Lagaf, released onSeptember 9. New single: La Zoubida, released onMay 13, currently no. 1 in France, and no.13 in Belgium; in the Coca-ColaEurochart Hot 100 Singles, it is no. 15. Recorded at Marcadet/Paris. Producer: Dimitri Yerasimos.

A year ago famous French humouristLagaf was criticising popular Top 50records. According to him, it was possibleto chart with an ultimately silly song, con-taining absolutely meaningless lyrics. Hewas right. His first effort, Bo Le Lavabo,went straight to no. I in the French singlescharts. Lagaf was backed by the instru-mental version of Lil' Louis' French Kiss,a big European hit that same year.He's done it again, this time with his sec-ond no.1 hit, La Zoubida, in which headapts the traditional Le Pont de Nantes toan Arabic theme by totally re -arrangingthe folk song, rewriting the lyrics, andretitling it. The song is about an Arab run-ning into complexities while trying to finda girlfriend. It's absolutely over the top,

although understanding of the French lan-guage is required to fully appreciate thehumour.The song, although immensely popular, isnot receiving any substantial radio airplay.Apart from Paris -based RTL's support,most stations feel the single doesn't fit theirformat. Even NRJ, the station where pro-ducer of this novelty hit, Dimitri Yerasi-mos, works as a DJ, doesn't play it.Actually, only one TV appearance-inTF1's "Tour A La Une" programme in theend of May-was needed to break this newsingle. A real sales boom followed. In onlytwo weeks time, the single sold in excess of200.000 copies and now sales are alreadypast platinum (half a million units). At themoment, the song is at the top slot of theFrench singles chart for ten consecutiveweeks, the second-best top runner for thelabel. Image's Les Demons De Minuit,spent 12 weeks at no. 1 in 1987.

Pan -European Spotlight: Artists fea-tured have achieved Top 15 chart sta-tus in the European Top 100 Albumswithin the last five years.

National Spotlight: Artists featuredhave achieved Top 15 chart status intheir country of origin.

'92 FlightFor USAToday's SkyUSA Today Sky Radio is planninga 1992 launch. The brainchild ofGannett's USA Today newspaper,the new system will deliver satelliteDAB programming of anews/sports context to commercialairlines.

The service apparently does notneed Federal CommunicationsCommission approval, but doesneed countenance from the FederalAviation Administration. Tele-phones currently in use on airlinersuse the Ku -band; it is suspectedthat Sky Radio will, as well.

USA Today spokesperson StevenAnderson said only that the radioprogramme will implement "a newapplication of a widely used satel-lite technology."

ALBUMS IndecencyBan ReviewTurned DownThe Federal Communications Com-mission (FCC) has been turneddown by the US Court of Appealson its request for a rehearing of lastMay's ruling, which struck down theFCC's 24 -hour -a -day ban on inde-cent broadcasting.

FCC options at this point includeimplementation of a safe har-bour-established daily periodswhen children are least likely to bein the listening audience and whenindecent material may be aired-oran appeal for review to theSupreme Court. Currently, the FCChas confined indecency enfor-cements to daily broadcasts be-tween the hours of 6.00-20.00.

POLYDOR PROMOTIONS: Off The Record hears that PolydorFrance has tapped Nagi Baz as its new MD. Baz will report to Poly -Gram Records France president Paul -Rene Albertini. Polydor hasalso hired a new A&R executive, Didier Varrod, who used to workfor French public radio. Look for changes at Epic France too.

DEAL OF THE WEEK?: OTR is picking up rumours that somemajor media groups are showing interest in private classical radio inFrance.

CROSS -CHANNEL CHARTS: At press time, OTR has been toldthat BBC Radio 5 is launching a new Saturday evening French chartcountdown show in conjunction with French network Europe 1. Morein the next issue.

OYSTON RETURNS: Former Mans World Comm. executivesOwen Oyston and Julian Allitt are among the names in the runningfor the Blackpool ILR licence in the UK. Oyston is backing BlackpoolLight FM, while Allitt would like to be MD of Fylde Coast Radio, orsimply Coast FM. Details next week.

JUST YOUR AVERAGE CROWD: An estimated 800.000 peoplevisited the Monsters Of Rock spectacle in Moscow on September 28,making it probably the largest attendance for a one -day festival. Artistsperforming included AC/DC, Metallica, Black Crowes, Pantera andEST.

THE REAL DEAL?: Time Warner is at it again. TW is in advancedtalks with Toshiba (once more) and C. Itoh about selling the Japanesecompanies a 12% joint stake for US$500 million each. TW stockpopped just over US$3 a share on the news to US$86.

DIVERSIFICATION CONTINUES: PolyGram continues its pushinto the movie business. The company has signed a letter of intent toreportedly buy mostly distribution rights from financially troubledCanadian entertainment company Nelson Holdings International.

IS HE AN INVESTOR?: OTR has learned that a new communityradio franchise being offered in Ireland seems certain to go to a reli-gious group, which plans to start a station called God FM. Whetherthis is a working name or the eventual station's call letters has not beendetermined. One drawback: it can't accept advertising.

OOPS!: Lastly, apologies to Chris Wemcken, the new MD at BMGAriola Austria. His former title was vice president of marketing forBMG Ariola Classics in New York, not international marketing man-ager/classic division.

Jazz FM(continued from page 1)

After a lengthy meeting onSeptember 30, Jazz FM's boarddecided to give GRR until Octo-ber 14 to line-up financing toacquire the station. That date isthe second extension of the origi-nal August 23 deadline.

According to David Astor,chairman of Classic FM, the con-sortium has the cash, but moretime is needed to completeresearch on the merger of ClassicFM and Jazz FM. Astor claimsthe group was concentrating onthe Authority's deadline first, andis now "going all guns on to JazzFM as a top priority."

Due diligence studies arebeing completed to satisfy two ofClassic FM's (and ultimately JazzFM's) investors, Sir PeterMichael and Time Warner, saysAstor. "The Jazz FM board is sat-isfied there is enough money,"and the investors are confidentthat the deal "makes good com-mercial sense," he adds.

When asked if sealing the for-mal buyout agreement was sim-ply a matter of paper -shufflingand if he was certain' GRR/Clas-sic FM would acquire Jazz FM,

Astor seems to hedge his bets. "Idon't know. I hope it will," hesays. "It certainly makes commer-cial sense; the case is there. If itdoesn't, Classic will go some-where else." However, he adds,"The intention is to broadcastClassic FM from London."

Another possible locationcould be the GWR Group's facil-ities in Swindon, since the five -station network has a 17.5% stakein Classic FM.

Meanwhile, speculation hasincreased that a consortium ledby Jon Diamond, founder ofAmerican jazz label GRP, willalso bid for Jazz FM should theGRR/Classic buyout attempt fail.Diamond, who sold his stake inGRP to MCA in 1989 to ventureinto radio, reportedly met withprincipals of Jazz in August.

Jazz FM MD John Bradforddeclines to be more specific onDiamond's intentions. He says,"We won't know who's interestedunless they submit a mature pro-posal. Either it's a full bid or nobid at all. Anything else is ahypothesis."

The GRR/Classic FM groupalso plans to merge with BuzzFM/Birmingham, where Maker isCEO.

investment at this stage."The board of Classic FM will

consist of chairman David Astor;deputy chairman Henry Meakin,chairman of GWR Group andAspen Communications; Gold-en Rose Management MDDavid Maker; GWR Group CEO

Ralph Bernard; and Brolly.Classic FM's success in rais-

ing its finance has come as arelief to the Radio Authority,which might have been facedwith having to go to the third andlowest bidder, UKFM. The origi-nal winner, First National Radio- The Showtime Station, failedto come up with the funds itpromised the Authority in the

allotted time.Authority CEO Peter Bald-

win says the way is now clear tomove ahead with the licence forthe second national commercialstation. He adds, "We shall beadvertising INR2 to all, as longas the proposed service is differ-ent from INR1. This will proba-bly be towards the end of Octo-

Rete 105(continued from page 1)

Radio Dimension Suono,RTL 102.5 Hit Radio and RadioKiss Kiss all registered audienceincreases in the latest survey, butthe listening figures for the 101Network dropped from 633.000to 606.000.

According to Rete 105 execu-tive Edoardo Hazan, "We mayhave lost a few listeners, but ourposition is steady and we have noreason to be unhappy. It is noteasy to stay on top for 15 years ina competitive market, and one inwhich different musical fashionscome and go. We've proved ourpolicy is right."

Hazan is keen to see theresults of the new Audiradio lis-teners survey conducted betweenSeptember 15 -October 15 to seehow its station, Radio MonteCarlo, has fared. "The station hasincreased its audience slightly,according to Datamedia, but thefigures were released before DJFausto Terenzi joined the sta-tion. He's our battle horse," saysHazan.

Radio Italia S.M.I. generalmanager Fillipo Broglia express-es delight at the latest results,saying, "We celebrate our 10thanniversary on February 17,1992, and have adopted the samepolicy since day one. We havealways known that our momentwould arrive, but we will contin-ue with our policy of locally pro-

duced music, presented with hon-esty and simplicity. By sticking toour guns, I don't think we'vemade the same mistakes as someof the other stations."

While Broglia says he is satis-fied with the no. 2 position, headmits the station aims to be theleader. He agrees that while thereis a current boom in nationalmusic, it is inevitable that allbooms end eventually. "If thatday arrives, it won't affect ourmusic policy one bit," he says."You have to remember that thequality in production of artistshas improved immensely over theyears, and while there may beless music in the future, the prod-uct that does remain will be of ahigh level." Broglia also claimsthat Radio Italia S.M.I. is themost -copied station in the coun-

try, a factor he sees as a compli-ment.

Local and regional stations toregister audience increases duringthe first quarter of this yearinclude Radio Peter Flowers/Milan (148.000) and Radio Club91/Naples (337.000). Nationalgold station 105 Classic hasraised its listening figures from431.000 to 463.000 while RadioCapital, the northern inter-regional '70s disco music station,increased its audience from229.000 to 233.000.

Pubcaster RAI, which doesnot subscribe to Datamedia, but ismonitored for information pur-poses, lost listeners. Its averagedaily audience for January -Marchthis year was 10.1 million, but thelatest research reveals listeningfigures of 9.35 million.

end of this year. This wouldroughly account for a growth ofmore than 25%. Dutch unit salesduring 1990 jumped by 24%.

However, Warner MusicBenelux MD Ted Sikkink doesnot believe that growth can con-tinue. "Figures over the summeralready indicate a totally differentpicture. The end of August year-to-date figures show that totalturnover has grown by 13.5%[instead of 20%] and unit sales by10.9% [as opposed to 15%]. I

estimate that at the end of thisyear, growth will only be between8-10%."

EMI Benelux MD and NVPIchairman Kick Klimbie alsobelieves the growth to be lessthan 25%. "The July and Augustmonths were low compared tolast year, so I think we'll proba-bly end up with a 10-12%growth, which is still not bad atall. We're still managing to get alot of people to the stores.There's one on every 10.000 andthat's unique."

The new figures were releasedon the 10 -year anniversary of the

Platen 10 Daagse (The 10 -dayRecord Event), an annual, collec-tive campaign by the Dutch recordindustry organised by the nationalassociation for the promotion ofsoundcarriers, CPG. This year'sevent, run from October 2-12,again offered a free 17 -track CDsampler for consumers purchasingDfl 49.50 on soundcarriers. Lastyear, 625.000 premium CDs werehanded out and the expectation forthis year is 675.000. CPG has alsoproduced two TV commercialsand various music TV -gala's willfurther boost the event.

Warner(continued from page 1)

Some 10.000 copies (both albumscombined) have been manufacturedfor that market by Warner's press-ing plant in Alsdorf.

According to Warner MusicAustria MD Manfred Lappe,who is coordinating the activities ofseveral east European territories,"This is definitely a first for Hun-gary, and I believe for all of the eastEuropean countries.

"Timing is crucial in such mat-

ters. This means a serious blow forpirates. But not only have wereleased the albums on the sameday, but they will also have westernquality. The only thing they stillcan beat us with, is the price."Lappe reckons that some 60% ofall national music cassette reper-toire is pirated.

The two albums are releasedthrough Budapest -based MMC,Warner's Hungarian licensingpartner. MMC-founded 14months ago -also licences EMIproduct and title -by -title releases

from Virgin and PolyGram. MDLaszlo Hegedus confirms thatfrom now on, all Alsdorf productwill be released nationally. "We'llstart with bringing out 50 Warnerback catalogue items. By Christ-mas, there will be 150 titles out."Hegedus believes that Hungarycan no longer be seen as aprovince of Europe. "The outputof state recording company Hun-garaton was always very low.We are going to change that andif there's a simultaneous release,we'll be part of that." MB

The EHR Top 40 chart is based on a weighted -scoring system. Songs score points by achieving airplay at M&M's EHR reporting stations. Unlike M&M's European Airplay Top 50, which

includes reports from stations sewing o general audience, these stations torget 12-34 year -old listeners with contemporary music fulltime or during specific doyparts. Songs in 'A' rotation oirploy re-ceive more points than those in "B" rotation or more limited airplay exposure. Stations are weighted by market size and by the number of hours per week committed to the format.

AIRPLAY ACTIONby Machgiel Bakker

The difference between nos. 1

and 2 is slowly decreasing.While Bryan Adams remainsat no. 1 (for the eighth consecu-tive week) with 62 stationsunder its belt, the number of sta-tions reporting Simply Red'sSomething Got Me Started hasseen an increase of no less than58%. Now up to a total of 54stations, Adams is finally gettingserious competition for the topspot.Something Got Me Started is

played in 11 markets with its

best airplay coming from Italy,the UK, Benelux and Sweden.While the new album Diamonds& Pearls has just seen the light ofday, Prince can boast of ha-ving two singles in the top 10.Gelt Off remains static at 10,but Cream -probably more sui-

table for EHR-jumps to no. 6 (co-ming from 23), making it the fas-test mover of this week. Creamgets reports from 12 markets,with the emphasis on the UK,France, Italy and Holland.Guns N'Roses also move intothe top 10 (15->8) with Don'tCry getting good reports onEHR stations in Norway, Spain,Holland, and (to a lesser extent)

Holland, and (to a lesser extent)the UK. It is the first EHR top 10single for the band.Highest new entry (11) forMaria Carey's Emotions. Thesingle seems to be right on tar-get for the Dutch market as all ofits EHR stations are playing it;

other good reports come fromSweden, Norway and Belgium.Second best entry for PaulYoung's cover of CrowdedHouse's 1986 single Don'tDream It's Over that is particu-larly favoured on French andNorwegian airwaves. Oddly,the single gets hardly any air-play in the UK.Two reentries this week: HueyLewis's It Hit Me Like A Ham-mer (it peaked at no. 7 sixweeks ago) and Scorpions'sWind Of Change, that stalled atno. 23 at the end of JuneWhile UK stations stoppedplaying 'It Hit Me' a while ago,the single is suddenly poppingup again in Germany, Italy andFrance.As reported last week, UK sta-tions have finally discovered theimpact of Wind Of Change anddue to this support (plus conti-nued airplay in Germany andDenmark), it re-enters at no. 34.
