about their successes and how Piece Of Paradisecame to be.
The personable *duo were obviously excitedabout the atttention the album and their two singlesgarnered but Antoine asserted "We are reallyanxious about tonight, this is our first perfomancein front of the public. We have done media showsand coporate stuff but we have never played in frontof our fans: It's going to be cool to see the reactionand feel the vibes."
The response to the album and the receptionthe singles have been getting have the "dynamicduo" basically shocked but they admit they werehoping this would album would break themnationally. Antoine explained "We have a strongbelief in our songs because we worked really hardon them: We were hoping for the best and thingsare really looking great.'" James, the quiet one, addsIt happened a rot quicker than we expected."
With their current appeal internationally anAmerican signing was only a matter of time. But
they are in a unique postion on that issue as wellbecause all the majors are at the table. At the timeof writing they found themselves in an unusualsituation. "There is a bidding war going on rightnow in America between Warner Bros. Arista,Interscope and Sony. We have met with Warner Brosand Arista and they both were very nice. If I had todecide tomorrow morning which one I would gowith I couldn't."
Whenyou have all the players at the table youhave more of a creative license with respect to whoand why you are going to sign with and Sky isdetermined to shop for the label that will bestrepresent them. "It's all going to come down topriority. It isn't about how much money they aregoing to put in our pockets. it's about whether theyare going to put us on the shelf for two -and -a -halfyears or are they going to get us out there?" Antoinereveals. James goes on to point out "marketingbudgets and promotion are the important things tous."

RMAC flip-flops over used
The Retail Music Association of Canada has indicated concern over the sale of used compact
discs, particularly by its members. At a recent board meeting the RMAC adopted
a position it hopes will create the necessary impact with those members who are indulging in this
practice. The board stressed that it "was saddened that
its members feel the necessity to sell used product to enhance their sales," somewhat softening their
stance with "but also recognizes that in today's marketplace the business of the traditional music
retailer is being threatened from many new and

product sales diverse directions."
The board went on to point out the irony of labels having complained of "potential lost revenue
to used sales when a number of their present initiatives have a direct impact on the sales of retailers."
According to the statement from the board, these initiatives include Direct Internet Sales
"including the recent published Madison Project in which the five major labels have been developing
technologies with IBM to allow the direct sale of music to consumers via the Internet, repo2rted in
the Feb. 15/99 issue of RPM. RMAC also expressed
ECMA and Pollstar nods to SLFA and clients The S.L. Feldman & Associates organization with
offices in Toronto, Vancouver and New York won recognition for its clients and agents at both the
East Coast Music Awards and the American concert industry awards as presented by Pollstar.
SLFA clients scooped numerous honours at last week's East Coast Music Awards which were held
in St. John's, Newfoundland. EMI recording artist Bruce Guthro took five awards: Male Artist, Pop/ Rock Artist, SOCAN Songwriter, Single for Falling,
and Album for Of Your Son. WEA recording artist Natalie MacMaster picked up the Female Artist
prize while The Rankins, who record for EMI, took home the Group award. The Chieftains, who are SLFA management clients shared the ECMA award
for Best Video for Lukey with WEA recording band Great Big Sea.
Gaining Pollstar recognition was SLFA's Little Big Man, winning the Small Booking Agency of the Year award. The New York -based LBM office
is managed by U.S. music industry veteran Marty Diamond.
Management client Joni Mitchell, along with Bob Dylan and Van Morrison, got the Pollstar nod for Most Creative Tour Package, while agency
clients Barenaked Ladies won the award for Small Hall Tour.
SLFA/LBM clients are nominated for six Grammy Awards, 13 Brit Awards and 47 Juno Awards.

concern over label ownership of record clubs, "providing music to the public at prices impossible
to achieve in the traditional retail environment," and direct marketing by way of product inserts
"inducing the music buyer to purchase supplementary items from the label thus depriving
the retailer from valuable incremental sales." In further softening its stance on its members selling used CDs, the board revealed that
sales of used CDs in the U.S. has been well documented over the years "with no major, negative
impact on the industry," continuing with "In the present climate RMAC cannot fault any of its
members for pursuing the legal option of selling used product."

taarshys ...
with Elvira CapreeseThe blind leading the ...!!! At a recent luncheondown St. John's way, a couple from away created amoment of humour for their fellow diners. The elderof the pair, had to go to the john, which was upstairs,about 17 steps, and the other guy, not in the elderlyclass yet, but catching up, volunteered to lend ahelping hand, to go up the stairs, that is. When theycame back down, the younger of the dynamic duobroke up the audience who were waitingbreathlessly, by exclaiming, "It took us so long toget up the stairs, we forgot what we were goingfor." (EC: Just two friendly old guys!!!)
Too much! TOO MUCH!!! You know, what reallyannoys me with morning radio shows is the cacklingtoken broads that became a part of the morningteam. Those phony laughs, and most of the stationshad one, was enough to make me tune into HowardStern. Well, now we've got a morning guy who hasan irritating belly laugh. He sounds almost insaneor like someone who's on a bender. So now, I wouldagree with cloning. Wouldn't it be just a perfectworld if Wally Crouter could have been cloned?(EC: Baaaa!!!)
The east meets the rest!!! We have awardsshows, too many awards shows. Then we have theEast Coast Music Awards which quite frankly, wasone of the best I've seen this year. This was a showwith heart. A few sound glitches, but that added tothe entertainment value and those effected camethrough like troupers. CBC technicians shouldhowever brush up on their behaviour when handlingpeople about to go on camera. They were prettycruel to one popular artist, even physically pushingher head down so she wouldn't block a camera shot.Even though she was shook by the treatment, sheput on a great performance. Talk about the gluethat binds this country together. There they were,stepping it out for the rest of Canada to see anincredible cultural phenomenon. We should seemore of this kind of production from the CBC.(EC: Read on!!!)
The glue!!! With CBC's mandate to foster andpromote things Canadian, and with Canada havingsuch a vibrant cultural connection from east to westand to the north, why couldn't CBC present annual

awards shows from the different regions of Canada,showcasing the local talent, just like the East CoastMusic Awards? The cultural fabric of this countrywould inspire real nationalism if we could actuallysee what there is in the cultural bin. All theorganizations are in place already, with, perhapsthe exception of Ontario. And these organizations,with a little help from various government levels,could underwrite most of the production. Just think,the Prairie Music Awards, The Canadian PacificMusic Awards, The North West Territories Awards.Quebec already has its ADISQ Awards, which doesvery nicely for Canada's French speakingpopulation. Don't know about Ontario. Theyprobably think the Junos belong to them. (EC:Something to think about, regional awards, Imean!!!)
Here we go again!!! One western broadcast baronwas more than a little pissed over the gobbling upof that Toronto station. And, apparently there's beensome nasty words going on between that bunch inHull and the cowboy. Watch for the cowboy to makea pitch for another MAJOR prize in a MAJORmarket. Not to be left out in the cold . . . he's beenwaiting for the chance to pounce on those Hull guys,watch for another MAJOR player in that MAJORmarket to make a bid for a station right under thenoses of the guys in Hull. (EC: Who controlswho???)
Ban Alanis??? Q107's program director, nostranger to tackling things controversial, likelegislated radio, has pulled all Alanis Morissetteproduct off his programming schedule. It seems thatMorissette refused to appear on the Howard Sternshow, but she did show up on the Rosie O'DonnellShow, and we all know what Stern thinks aboutSweet Rosie. So, as Stern goes, naturally goesCardinal. Stern won't support Morissette until she

makes an appearance on his show, and Cardinalsays the station won't play any of her product untilshe bows to Stern's demand to appear on his show.And, it's now been reported that all of Sternaffiliates across the U.S. have jumped on the "BanAlanis" bandwagon. Pretty heady stuff. And, talkabout noses out of joint, there are a bunch of mediapeople right here in Toronto who are pissed off atMorissette as well. Here's a hint of who they maybe. Who wasn't invited to her recent pressconference in Toronto? (EC: Watch a falling star!!!)
The guys from "away"!!! When inNewfoundland, they say, do as the Newfielandersdo, or is it what they do to the people from "away",which is an east coast description of someone whoisn't from down there. The big "away" fish theysnagged this time was J.J. hisself. They caught himin between jogging, fitted him up with the oldNewfie dory slicks, got him to kiss an ancient codfish and "screetched" him out. Or was it in?Anyway, observers say that since he returned home,he's been running better, not faster, but he'sdeveloped a bit of a fish movement which shouldcome in handy for his next marathon. (EC: He betterstay away from the water!!!)
Have you noticed??? It's taking a little time,but isn't it encouraging to see how many of thepeople who found themselves among the"unwanted" have found their expertise is, in fact,"wanted"? (EC: Yeah! We only have 89% to go!!!)

PETER SABOURINTall BourbonRodeo International -503This "country outlaw" from North Bay, Ontario,signed a worldwide publishing deal with BanffMusic last year and has since had this albumreleased across Canada and Europe. The titletrack was taken as the first single whichestablished Sabourin as an artist to watch.Thesecond single, Drifting Cowboy Band, hascaught the attention of country programmerswho gave the track those important spinsresulting in a chart single for Sabourin (#88).The impressive and very memorable"bourbon -stained" vocal approach lendscredence to his song message. There's justenough of a rock edge to create that "interestfactor" probably best displayed on JustBecause. There's a touch and a very pleasantone, of honky-tonk on This Old Guitar, LittleBand and Margaret And Ann, which are keytracks. But don't overlook Janey and Star,either one of which could come out of left field.He wrote all the material here. The album wasproduced by Michael Fonfara and recorded atvarious Canadian studios. -WG

FERGUS HAMBLETON - Easy/PopSnapshotsSupermono-019This is the first solo album from Toronto singer,songwriter and musician Fergus Hambletonin some years. He was kept busy keeping Junoaward winning reggae band, The Sattalites,which he founded, on the straight and narrow.He wanted to release an album that was "verybeautiful and different," which he has, and witha large dose of reverence. Hambleton's talenton a variety of instruments: guitar, saxophone,clarinet and piano, goes without question.Given the added backing featured musicians;George Koller (bass), Colin Linden (guitar),Kurt Swinghammer (electric sitar), ChrisWhiteley (pedal steel), Hugh Marsh (violin),Tim Bovaconti (vocals, guitar), Neil Chapman(guitar), Jack Zaza (flute) Catherine Keenan(hurdy gurdy) and Kathryn Rose (vocals), nottoo shabby, and you can visualize the beautyand the difference that Hambleton hasachieved through veteran producer TerryBrown. A lush and very impressive production.Hambleton's vocals are mindful of the yearswhen vocalists put their very soul into their
painting an audio vision for their listeners, andthat's what Hambleton has done. Most of thematerial here was written by Hambleton, andshows class in borrowing from others, like withLennon and McCartney's And I Love Her andGordon Lightfoot's If You Could Read My Mind,putting his own emotions where they fit hispersonna. Also key is Lady, Weeping At TheCrossroads, a poem by W.H. Auden,articulately enhanced with a violin solo byHugh Marsh, an exceptional piece of harpwork by L'Angela Mysteriosa, percussion byDick Smith and guitar inserts by Neil Chapman.Also key is Hambleton's original works of LifeBy The Water, The Reason Why andBreathless which he wrote with Janice Powers.Ice On The Road has been taken as the firstsingle and video.

KARP - AlternativeAd mKarp -72A flawless fusion of "psychedelic" love balladswith techno and rock, kind of rare these days,particularly the usage of "psychedelic," whichconjures up visions of a memorable era inmusic. But that's what Sean Karp has puttogether very neatly in this five -song ER.There's just enough of a sampling of Karp'ssongwriting mystique and his unadulterated
vocal approach, a sort of youthful annoyanceor maybe arrogance with jagged edges whichgoes in keeping with the entertainment value.Campus radio programmers should go nutswith all five tracks. Four of the five are Karporiginals. He does his own spin on the Animals'#1 hit House Of The Rising Sun (RPM - Sept.8/64), a little left of the original, but nonethelessstays within the parameters of Karp's owncreative agenda, sort of a backhanded tribute,a key track. But so is Poor Man's Princess andThe Connection. Produced by Karp, whosupplies a lot of energy performing on drums,bass, guitar and keyboards. Amos Carlendoubles on wha guitar and keys and suppliesbackup vocals and David Bell is also heard onkeys. Produced by Amos Carlen and recordedat Toronto's Umbrella Sound where JoaoCarvalho gets credit for mastering. Four of thefive tracks qualify as four -parts Cancon.

YO-YO MASimply BaroqueSony Classical -60680-HWe were present at CBC Toronto for theannouncement of cellistYo-Yo Ma as the 1999winner of the prestigious Glenn Gould prize.That should give a boost, if any is needed, tothe sales of this splendid album with the tonguein cheek, oxymoronic title. The equallyexcellent liner notes will advise you better thanwe can about baroque music and instruments.We'll "simply" advise that once again Mr. Mdisplays his versatility playing selected worksof Bach and Boccerini accompanied by ToonKoopman conducting the Amsterdam Baroque
- Baroque
Orchestra from the organ and harpsichord.We'll also advise that our personal favouritesand, we suspect, of most intended listeners,are Bach's beloved Jesu, Joy of Man'sDesiring and Air on a G.String. Simply -"simply" - majestic. -BW
BLUE NOTE SALUTES MOTOWN - MotownVarious ArtistsBlue Note -94211-FEtymologically, there's a difference betweenTribute and Salute. As Casey Stengel used tosay "You should look it up." The former moreproperly applies to these orchestral and vocal
covers from the Motown oeuvre. Titlenotwithstanding, it's an excellent album thatemphasizes what one dares suggest is thenow universal appeal of Motown. There's nosingle star performer here but saxophonistStanley Turrentine stands out with StevieWonder's You And I and Sir Duke. -BW
LENNY BR EAU - Simply GuitarBoy WonderTrue North/Guitararchives-0172-JRandy Bachman deserves recognition andreward (a Walt Grealis Achievement Awardperhaps?) for his efforts through Guitarchivesin keeping alive the legacy of Lenny Breau.This first volume of a proposed series featuresLenny at age fifteen.There are 27 musical cuts-- some of them are medleys -- so they're
obviously and refreshingly short. All of themdisplay Breau's technical mastery at such anearly age. As well though, they titillate with thepromise of even better things to come. Track28 is a conversation between Lenny's motherand Al Hawkes who produced this first album.Bittersweetly charming. A historical note:Lenny Breau's father was Winnipeg's Hal LonePine, one of Canada's first recognized countryartists who used to play regularly at Toronto'sold Edison Hotel on Yonge Street in the early'60s. -BW
KIP HANRAHAN - JazzDays and Nights of Blue Luck InvertedAmerican Clave/Justin Time -1012Auditor alert! Do not -- repeat, do not -- be putoff by an initial hearing. Yes, ideallycompositions should capture immediateattention and truthfully, Days and Nights doesjust that but in a puzzling way. A typical initialreaction is likely to be one of puzzlement ie:"wotinell is that?" Possibly that's why the albumwas held for general release till now after beingproduced in 1988. Repeat hearings however,reveal much of value both in melodic structureand orchestration to be enjoyed. Hanrahanpushes the musical envelope to a destinationevidently known only to himself but the journeyis shoorasell interesting and possibly fulfilling.
SHERMAN IRBY - BluesBig Mama's BiscuitsBlue Note -72438-56234-FTitles aren't truly important for songs withoutlyrics. Many of Strauss, the Waltz King'scompositions don't conjure up images oftheir's. One as explicit however, as Big Mama'sBiscuits makes us think of small soul breadsthat are heavy and hot. What Sherman Irbyserves up here on alto sax withaccompaniment is soft and decidedly coolwhich isn't to suggest that the album is withoutmerit. Listened to as cool school blues it's quitepleasurable. There are eleven of BillyStrayhorn's Take The A Train and sevenminutes of cool. But, it's not what one expectsof Big Mama's Biscuits. -BW
ALBUM PICKCRASH TEST DUMMIESGive Yourself A HandVik/BMG-74321-63822-NThe Superman musical signature is gone. The Dummies' Brad Roberts adds to his vocalmystique with a cleverly created and welcome departure but still maintains his lust forthe weird. It's a positive 12 -song happening with a couple of notable surprises. Robertshas allowed his songwriting sanctum to be invaded. Greg Wells, described as a "fast -rising Canuck-born wunderkind", wrote all the music with Roberts. He also producedthe album which was recorded in Los Angeles. There are no MAPL logos on the artwork,but I guess when you've sold 8.5 million units of previous albums, you don't need theCancon connection. But it's there anyway, as most of the tracks, if not all of them arethree -parts Cancon (MAL). Keep A Lid On Things, taken as the first single is alreadycapturing the important radio markets acrossthe country resulting in listings on both theRPM 100 Hit Tracks and A/C charts. Nicepackaging of the single, by the way. Not toget too taken up with Roberts and producerWells, there's more to the Dummies, and theyare Ellen Reid, Mitch Dorge, Benjamin Darvilland Dan Roberts. In fact, another key trackis A Little Something, with Reid joiningRoberts and Wells for the writing chore. Theother notable departure and this one notedby Roberts tells the whole story, so get readyfor this non -watershed album with its"midnight rhythms, dubby interludes, graffiti -splattered lyrics, muted guitars and mondobreakbeats." So love 'em or not, this is the new Crash Test Dummies, well, a new approachanyway. You'll get that feeling of weirdness from A Cigarette Is All You Get, Just ShootMe, Baby, Pissed With Me and I Love Your Goo. Aching To Sneeze and I Want To Par-tayalso lends credence to the nice structuring job on the new foundation. -WG

sound. The Vancouver show was recorded for a "live" album release later this year. Video footage of the tour will be included
in an upcoming profile of MacNeil's life with plans also underway for the taping of a television Christmas special.

Bruce Guthro
Brian Tobin was seen in a number of very funny taped shorts with Mercer, a rare and very humble
role that flew in the face of his importance as a leader in Canada's political arena and the presumed
heir to the Chretien throne. Viewers saw Tobin as Mercer's cab driver, drinking buddy and fire truck
driver, which set the tone for the fast -paced 90 -
minute show. In opening the show, Mercer told his audience
that the ECMA awards show was "the hottest ticket east of Regina," a tongue-in-cheek remark no doubt
aimed at Canada's west coasters. OBITUARY
CBC veteran Alan Maitland is dead at 78 Alan Maitland, who co -hosted CBC Radio's As It
Happens from 1974 to his retirement in 1993, died Feb. 11 in Vancouver of a heart attack.
Mr. Maitland, who was 78, had carved a unique niche in CBC programming with his quick
quips became as much a part of the show as the reigning host. One of those hosts, the late Barbara
Frum, once referred to Mr. Maitland as "Fireside Al," because of his ability to communicate with
listeners through reading short vignettes on the show. Although he officially retired in 1993 he
stayed with As It Happens for the next eight years, doing various readings which he had recorded at
his home in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia. He moved to Sechelt, B.C. in 1996.

Born in Kenora, Ontario, Mr. King began hisradio career in the Lakehead (Thunder Bay) atCJLX, followed by on -air stints in London andKitchener before moving to CKRM Regina.
When he joined the Regina station, heinfluenced the owner to change the format to countrymusic. Within months the station was enjoyingexcellent ratings, and was credited with directlypopularizing country music throughout the prairieprovinces as other stations adopted the countryformat. CKRM was the #1 country radio station inthe west for a decade or more.
As program director of CKRM, Mr. King wasresponsible for opening many doors for youngCanadian country hopefuls, squeezing theirindependent productions between the moreestablished artists, a move that fostered listenerinterest and paved the way for national recognition.
It was Mr. King who was instrumental inhaving the Big Country Awards weekend staged inRegina at the Regina Inn in 1978. As host committee
chairman of Canadian Country Music Week, he wasrelentless in pressuring the local municipalgovernment and the province of Saskatchewan to

Although dubbed the "Odd Couple" James andAntoine have been bunking together for the pastfive years after they met at a music engineeringschool in Montreal. Both of them are songwriters,producers and multi -instrumentalists but thebreakdown usually comes down to Antoinehandling the production side of things and Jamesis the admitted lyricist. However they docollaborate on the songwriting. With an incrediblysuccessful self -produced five song EP released ontheir own Phat Royale label in 1997, the duo werehoping to hook up with a flexible producer for thisalbum and as luck would have it they did.
Renowned producer Peter Mokran (Maxwell,R. Kelly. Michael Jackson) lent his productiontalents on five of the 10 tracks on Piece Of Paradise.Antoine and James own most of the records Mokranhas worked on making him their number one choicebut Antoine admits "We thought it would beintimidating working with him because of his nameand the albums he has worked on. But he camedown to Montreal, we went out and had dinner andwe totally chilled, he is just a little older than us.We talked about music and what we wanted to doon the album and then went to New York and itwas great."
All and all the "duo" have been enjoying theirsuccesses and everything that comes with it Antoine,
the obvious outspoken one (James couldn't get aword in edge wise), boasts "when we wererecording in L.A. we met all kinds of people likeRay Charles and Natalie Imbruglia. I was at abarbeque with her and she made fun of my cooking."Antoine was making the moves on the pop sensationbut she was hanging with that little kid from Titanic.Antoine adds "they were schmoozing a lot and thatmade the competiton a little tough"
Sky has touring on the brain and hope to hookup with a Canadian act for a national tour whenthey are done this promotion junket. They haven'teven thought about a follow-up release yet, but withthousands of songs in the can, it won't be too faraway.
