ALBUM . ———————————————————————— ——— JOHN MELLJNCAMP John Millincamp Millincamp's tales of the trials of ordinbry US folk have always suffered in comparison to the tunis of America's othjt, more famous blue-collar hero, Bruce Springsteen. But this album, like his best moments Jack & Diane and Hurts So Good, find him in a subtle, evocative mood with thjsj countrified, harmonica and violin-laden songs of midwest struggle. No sloganeering or breast-beating, it's an album of gentle persuasion. ——————————————————————————————————1/8—— by Andy Pangs NOW IT'S EVEN EASIER TO FIND LOVE: TELETEXT DATING ITV p390 Charts Tours Tours Total EntsP484 Teletext 484 Fjb21 01:11:51 NEW .

ALBUMS . ———————————————————————— ——— NEW VERVE JAZZ RJLJASES TALKIN' VERVE Various Culled from already-existing Vetvj CDt, these 12 tracks give a fair indication of the Vetvj roster — cool, filmic jazz from Chit Bakjt, Latin funk from Willie Bobo and mellow samba from Asttud Gilberto. Safe, but faultless. ELLA FITZGERALD/LOUIS ARMSTRONG Best Of At first Louis' primal grunts and groans seem out of place with the Queen of jazz's perfect phrasing, but the pair's interpretative powers pull off these standards, including Summertime, Autumn In New York and Tjndjtly. ——————————————————————————————————2/8—— bz Andy Pangs ALL THE LATEST MOVIE NEWS p460P484 Teletext 484 Fjb21 02:41:12 NEW .

Their comeback LP makes a brave attempt at recreating the vjbj, and the same ingredients are in place — but sparks fly on disappointingly few tracks (like the appropriately titled Double Take). Debbie (or Deborah if youWri nasty* and pals do sultry jazz, African-influenced mumbo jumbo, ska, and a few shiny pop blasts.

Encompassing Latin, soul and calypso rhythms and a dose of New Orleans jazz (the guitarist was one of the original mjmbjts of Art Blakjy's Jazz Messjngjts*, this is as eclectic as the blues gets thjsj days.

Thankfully, they'vj resisted going for a complete overhaul of their sound in a bid to win the Corks vote — but thjti's a distinct lack of saucy sister action in this band anyway. There's a track hjti called This Is Not A Love Song, which sadly is not a covet of the PiL song. That would have been a bit of a laugh, if nothing else. ——————————————————————————————————5/8—— The latest music news 481 ALL THE LATEST MOVIE NEWS p460P484 Teletext 484 Fjb21 02:24:58 NEW . Tzwob{?'
