Record Review
Two new bands show individual styles
By Janet Tench
This week two relatively new bands are
featured: Night Ranger with Midnight
Madness 11 do not believe this to be their
first LP) and Paul Young with No Parley
Young being English, this could be a com-
pilation of British releases I. These two
bands were extremely difficult to, analyze
because little information on them was
available, but as with' every artist group the
album always reveals character.
Night Ranger is a popular band locally.
Their music pulsates yet has lyrical quali-
ty. Take the song Sister Christianson: it
rates as a love ballad at roller skating. l Not
to mention When You Close Your Eyes plac-
ed number 31 on Billboard this week I. While
Midnight Madness was released in 1983, it is
one of those slow starters that is, peaking
now.
Musically, Night Ranger likens well to
Styx -an all American band with good in
strumentation. Obvious at times is the in-
fluence of Kiss. This seems natural because
there is a "special thanks" to Paul Stanley
and Gene Simmons.
However, there is one trait that keeps this
albums from being first class: normality.
Most of the song writing here is credited to
Jack Blades. He has the basic verse -chorus
verse chorus pattern down pat, but he
doesn't deviate from it. This makes the
songs dull. You don't find Slade doing that.
Naturally there are the nice touches, such
as Freres Jacques preluding a Tough .of
Madness, but everybody has sornethirig'
similar to that these days ( Saga, Platinum
Blonde, Slade, Aldo Nova etc.)
In all, Night Hanger does everything
''right" - they even include lyric sheets with
the album - which makes thein okay. but
they'll need a special trait to take them to
the top. Rating: 7 out of 10.
It's a different story, though. with Paul
Yonne. who brought vnu the hit ('nme Back
and Stay. Young is much like Joe Jackson;
his style is laid back, pleasant to the ears
and experimental. His vocals, again like
Jackson, are stark, adding a fresh in-
nocence to the sound.
Still in line with the innocent sound are the
lyrics. Generally they deal with broken love
affairs. The are so rich with pain that they
*pull a string in your heart.
Like all good artists, Young uses a variety
of instruments and sounds. In Wherever I
Lay My Hat there is tasteful use of the piano
and the "stick". Ku Ku Kurama has a fun
African flavour.
The only track deserving criticism is the
title song, No Parlez. Here the words fall out
of synch with the beat. Words get drowned
out by other words. While you can be sure
this is intentional it doesn't vibe with the
rest of the LP. It sounds like somebody fell
asleep at the sound board:
Another asset for Paul Young is his
fashionable appearance. His hair ( that's all
that46lunts these days, you knovy.) is 'styled
in a way that will thrill young Duranies. But
be it his looks or his music that intrigues
give Paul Young a try. Rating: 9.
Good news! There's another contest com-
ing up...20 questions I much easier), with
tw'o prizes, one of,which is an album review-
ed above. Buff UlY'nn your trivia. sharpen
your pencil. tune in next week and get set to
win'.
Bedford
slo-pitch
team wins
The Goderich Ladies' Slow -Pitch League
reports action last week on four fronts.
Ron's Shell defeated Nile 10-7 in a game
played August 27. Marilyn McCuspey, Cor-
rine Walsh, Lynn Rumig and Sharon Sower -
by all scored twice for Shell, with five Shell
runs coming in the bottom of the third inn-
ing. Nile came on in the top of the seventh
with a four -run rally, but it was too little, too
late.
Also on August 27, the Go-4-ettes topped
Bedford 6-2. The Go-4-ettes had hot bats in
'this game, with Jeanette Pearson banging
the big tap of the night, a double in the first
inning. Barb Ottewell came up with a pair of
singles and Jean Cruickshank, Pat Costello,
Pat Allen, Pat Francis and Wendy
Denomme, each had one base hits.
Lori Kennedy, Diane Maize and Shelly
Barlow each had two singles for Bedford. In-
- dividual singles were hit by Carmen Savoie,
Joanne Crawford and Val Willis.
The following night, August 28, the Go-4-
ettes suffered .a 7-2 loss to Mac's. Betsy
Rivera was the big gun for Mac's, walloping
two homer's, scoring two runs in the second
inning and a three -run shot in the sixth.
Rivera also hit a single in the game. Janet
Godfrey and Kathy Doherty each had two
singles for Mac's and Wanda Hodges and
Michele Park each hit one.
Pat Allen and Sue McKay each hit a pair
of singles for the Go-4-ettes. Cheryl Doak,
Sue Young and Barb O'Brien each hit one.
Bedford overcame a distinct disadvan-
tage on August 30, beating All Ages 9-2,
despite being one player short of a full team.
Bedford was penalized an automatic out
whenever it reached the 10th position in the
batting order.
Shelly Barlow scored three times for Bed-
ford, as the Bedford squad came on strong
in the fifth inning, with a six -run explosion.
Shirley Erb and Judy Parks were the only
All Ages batters to cross home plate.
