     European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - June 11, 1990, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Restless heart Singer Speaks out a Jim Lewis United press International restless heart has sold More records than any other country group except Alabama. The band has had six straight no. 1 singles the most recent being fast moving train. But when it comes time for the awards to be handed nut they Are not to be found. Quot there Are a lot of reasons Why restless heart Hasni to received the publicity so to speak Over the years a Aid the group s Lead Singer Larry Stewart. A one is because we re a band an equal partner band. We Are five Guys As opposed to a single artist. In country music especially that is almost a foreign thing. Quot Alabama was the first band that played All the instruments. That a one of the reasons As a band you Don t seem to get As much recognition As one single  Stewart said another reason May have to do with restless heart s music. He said the band has been accepted by country radio from the first Day they had a record except in some areas of the United states particularly the Southwest. Quot but All in All we re very satisfied. In a not going to say that the Lack of recognition does no to bother us now and then but it does no to ruin our life. It s not that you re dead without it a Stewart said. Quot but the main thing that works for us is that the people buy our records and the radio is playing them. If they were not wed be bummed  Stewart said the country music establishment is "500 times better than it used to be with regard to letting new acts be themselves. He said he was disappointed with traditional country music in the Early 1980s. Quot it did not have the Power that the earlier traditional music had. They the Nashville music establishment were trying to manufacture traditional country music and weren to carrying it off. They were trying to figure out Why it was t Selling. The reason was that it was not very Good. Quot they were manufacturing it a putting clothes on people and telling them How to sing. Today we have people like Alan Jackson Clint Black Garth Brooks and Doug Stone. They Are As real As it gets. You can Tell they lived it. A i d like to invite All these bigwig hotshots who drive $70,000 cars who Wear three piece suits and Don t listen to country music to put on their jeans go on the Road and meet the people who actually buy the music. Quot they will Tell you what they want to hear. They Are not going to Shell out $10 or pay $18 to go to a concert to listen to something they done to like. You can t pull the Wool Over the fans eyes Quot Stewart said. He said his Label Ria is the Leader in country music because its executives have not lost touch with the fans. Quot they get on the bus every Quarter and travel All Over the country and visit radio stations and attend  Stewart sees a Bright future for country music. Quot it took a Long Long time for everyone a the Media the establishment record companies a to realize that country music is a multifaceted music just like any other style of music. And what country has done Over the past 10 or 15 years has gone in cycles. It will go traditional then go contemporary then go traditional then Urban Cowboy. Everybody would jump on what was going on during these cycles. Quot what is happening now is that there Are a lot of new artists coming on the scene. And those new artists Are both contemporary and traditional. I think some of the established artists both traditional and contemporary Are still on the scene and i think that a very healthy for country  up John Dittrich left Larry Stewart and Paul Gregg of the country group restless heart with Dick Clark second from left. Electric boys a Funk of Metal carpet ride it used to be that hard Rock records just pounded their Point Home pummelling each Riff with sledgehammer insistence. Not so with Sweden s electric boys. Although the band is obviously fond of screaming guitars and gut shaking Drums what its debut album delivers is hard Funky Rock n Roll. At its Best As with the irresistible All hips n lips the bands sound is infectious. But even lesser efforts like if i had a car or psychedelic eyes manage to marry the brutal crunch of Arena Rock with the rhythmic insistence of White Funk. Definitely a band to watch. We at s what s not record a review perfect gentlemen a rated pm Given producer Maurice Starr a Knack for assembling teen groups having put together new edition and new kids on the Block it might be tempting to write off perfect gentlemen As one More pre fab pop project. After All the tiny trios debut has All the Hallmarks of a Starr production Sweet soulful harmonies Slickly synthesized backing tracks and Gushin Gly romantic sentiments. But the group also has Maurice Starr jr., and the extra zing Given such songs As one More Chance the bouncy birthday girl and the exquisite ooh la la can t get Over you is enough to suggest that musical ability is indeed an inherited trait. Dirty dozen brass band a the new Orleans album most new Orleans brass bands belong to an old tradition one that stretches Back to the Days before even ragtime had made its Mark and that puts up some fairly Well defined boundaries on their music. Not the dirty dozen brass band. Because this genre jumping octet is As at Home with contemporary jazz hybrids As with the Standard new Orleans second line Groove the dirty dozens play a Little of everything on the new Orleans album. And whether its old style ramp a tunes like the Monkey featuring the legendary Dave Bartholomew on vocals or foot stomping jazz like Cannonball Adderley s inside straight they play it Well. Michael Mcdonald a take it to heart what makes Michael Mcdonald such an impressive Singer Isnit his vocal Range or lung Power but the emotional Content he packs into each soulful exhortation and falsetto sigh. In his third Solo album its As if the meaning of each Lyric was spelled out in the sound of his voice whether it s the pleading desperation that Marks the sob like verses to lonely talk or obvious Joy illuminating the gospel inflected get the world started. Like the Best soul singers Mcdonald understands its not what you sing that matters but How. A .
