M & M NEWS THIS WEEK

The New EuropeBetweenThe Lines

by Machgiel Bakker

If there has been one controversial issuestirring up the blood in most mainlandEuropean music industries over the lastdecade it has been the fight to stop thedominance of Anglo-American music.Ever since US -style rock & roll andEnglish pop began invading continentalshores some 30 years ago, home-growntalent has been pushed to one side.

But, happily, the tide is at last turn-ing. The latest music sales figures forGermany show that national productnow takes more than 40% of the 1995singles sales charts, compared to just27.5% in 1993. Similar trends are being

witnessed in three other main markets of Continental Europe-France, Italy and Holland. Record industry body SNEP saysFrancophone product gained 22% in volume and 10.4% in valuein 1995-no doubt boosted by quota regulations which sawmany national nets increase their intake of French music lastyear. In Italy, local artists account for almost 50% of thenations' 1995 year-end sales chart, and forthcoming estimatesfrom Holland show that national music's share of the total 1995music market has increased to 23% from 18% in 1993.

One overriding fact that these figures have in common isthat they show an emerging appreciation of local languages andcultures. English -language pop may have been a global move-ment in the mid -'80s, prompting predictions of a homogenousfuture, but these days a pride in local culture is taking over.That's a strange development for pundits who had expected theemergence of the European Union would create a market uni-fied by border -crossing pop music sung in English. In fact, thereverse seems to be true. Europe has split into a variety ofmicro -cultures, each boasting its own domestic music scenethat's often at odds with neighbouring countries.

There is no doubt that this will have serious implications forAnglo-American music's share of the world market. It is pre-dicted, for instance, that US pop's global marketshare will havedropped to just 20% by the year 2000, from 50% in 1987. Wel-come to a new Europe, the world of variety and divergence.

RAJAR's Rating SystemGoes Back To Basicsby Jonathan Heasman

LONDON - UK ratings bodyRAJAR has decided to abandonits new "self -assembly" listenerdiaries and return to its previ-ous system of pre-printeddiaries until at least Septem-ber 1998.

The about-turn follows thediscovery that the new -stylediaries, introduced in the lastquarter of 1995, failed to detecteach radio station's "light" lis-teners (Music & Media,December 23 1995).

It is believed the problemoccurred because the actual act

Tassez Out As RMCFaces The Futureby Emmanuel Legrand

PARIS - RMC general managerJean -Noel Tassez has resignedafter five years at the reins ofthe full -service station.

As predicted (Music &Media, April 6), he will bereplaced by Georges Vanderch-mitt, president of the state-owned financial holding com-pany Sofirad, which owns83.3% of the RMC Group.

Vanderchmitt is nowexpected to implement a dras-tic restructuring plan, in orderto reduce predicted losses ofFfr100 million (app. US$20million) for 1996. These followlosses of Ffr80 million in 1995.

Vanderchmitt says his goalis to bring the station to prof-itability within the next twoyears. His ultimate aim is to

get the company ready for anew privatisation after theprevious five failed attempts.

The financing of the planand its content will beunveiled during an RMC boardmeeting at the end of 1996. Itis understood that RMC,which scored a national audi-ence of 3.7% during the lastratings sweeps, will remain afull -service station.

Vanderchmitt is also to lookinto improving the profitabili-ty of Nostalgie (in which RMChas a 51% share) and turnMontmartre FM into nationalnetwork, targeting over -50 lis-teners.

He will also investigateways of increasing the efficien-cy of ad sales house GEM. Oneidea is to combine forces withanother sales house.

of putting together the "self -assembly" diary (whichinvolved selecting stationnames from a sheet of stickers)encouraged RAJAR respon-dents to effectively choose theirlistening habits in advance byonly selecting stickers for their"regular" stations.

The RAJAR board has, how-ever, resolved to continue itssearch for a new type of diaryformat better suited to theincreasing number of radio ser-vices now available. It is hopedthat such a new methodologycould be introduced in twoyears time.

Chairman of the RAJARboard John Whitney com-ments, "The policy of RAJARthroughout these deliberationshas been to safeguard the cur-rency for the benefit of allusers and to do so in the mosttransparent way possible."

Following concerns aboutthe loss of "light" listeners,RAJAR figures for the 1995fourth quarter had to beamended using a process ofstatistical ascription (Music &Media, March 30). A similarexercise will be undertakenwith the figures for the 1996first quarter, originally sched-uled for publication on May 3.The ascription process meansthat these figures will now bedelayed by around two weeks.

Musikliomm deputy MD Ralf Plasehke

Q: How has radio influ-enced your career?A: When I was six years -old,I sang along with the radio toanything from Beatles hits toGerman schlager. Four yearslater I used to record the pro-gramme "Diskothek ImWDR" with a microphoneonto a mono cassette -recorder. At the age of 15, Igraduated toJohn Peel's showon BFBS. Peelwidened mymusical horizononce and for all.

Q: What isyour favouriteradio station?A: I don't actual-ly have a lot oftime to listen tothe radio. At breakfast Iswitch on pubcaster WDR 2for news, features and musicas it does not demand toomuch attention at thatungodly hour. During therest of the day I occasionallytune into WDR's EHR chan-nel Eins Live. .

Q: If you could changesomething about radiotoday what would it be?A: Musical tastes and themusic market itself are split-ting into ever smaller fac-tions. The German radiolandscape should finally get

around to reflecting thisdevelopment. I realise thatthis is a problem which alsohas to be dealt with by mediapoliticians. I am looking for-ward to the experimentswith Campus Radio atNorthrhine Westfalia's uni-versities. Maybe CampusRadio will offer us new waysof addressing the market

along the linesof US -style col-lege radio.

Q: Is there aGerman artistwho deservesmore atten-tion abroad?A: Next tointernationally -oriented pro-ductions made

in Germany, I would like tosee more attention abroadpaid to artists who show anindividual, off -beat approachto music.

Q: Which music do youlisten to at home?A: My favourite albumartists are Portishead, Buffa-lo Tom, Long Fin Killie andTocotronic. On a completelydifferent note, I like all thesingles by Take That andRare Groove Music.

M & M I 0 MAKING WAVES

Dublin's Pioneering Spiritby Dermott Hayes

CITY PROFILE

UBLIN is a radio town.Although there are onlytwo local radio stations,two national pubcastersand a handful of communi-

ty and specialist radio stations inoperation, the airwaves crackle andjump with the sounds of music, chat,drama and comedy.

Dublin was the home of the one ofthe first commercial radio broadcasts.In August 1923, during the annualDublin Horse Show, Marconi set up atransmitter and a microphone in theRoyal Marine Hotel in Dun Laoghaire,six miles from the city centre. Thereceiver was placed in the RoyalDublin Society's showgrounds inBallsbridge, and the embryonic stationmade twice daily broadcasts for 10days until it was shut down by thePostmaster General.

Whiff Of PiracyThe slight whiff of piracy and the pio-neering spirit which prompted thatfirst illicit broadcast has never quiteleft the Dublin radio scene. The spiritreturned in the late '70s and through-out the '80s when pirate radio sta-tions, operating openly as commercialorganisations, challenged the state -run broadcasting monopoly and ruth-lessly kicked the city's airwaves intothe 20th century.

The pirates were music -based withno chat, no clutter and lots of advertis-ing and promotions. Rates were com-petitive and often negotiable. "Any-thing goes" was the general rule ofthumb. By the mid -'80s there were asmany as 10 pirate stations operatingopenly in the city, although there werereally only three of any size or stature.

The existence and the program-ming policies of the pirates promptedthe birth of 2FM, a second nationalpubcaster, as an EHR station withchat targeting the same mobile, disen-franchised youth population thepirates appeared to have discovered.

The persistence of the pirates, how-ever, prompted new broadcasting leg-islation that outlawed them and triedto hit them where it hurt most, withsubstantial fines and equipmentseizures. More significantly, advertis-ers were threatened with heavy finesand censure if they persisted in buyingpirate airtime.

The Broadcasting Act of 1988established the Independent Radioand Television Commission (IRTC), aregulatory body that would grant com-mercial licences and oversee program-ming. Franchise holders wererequired to devote at least 20% oftheir airtime to news and currentaffairs, and there was a loose attemptto make programming reflect localculture and tradition.

Local FranchisesIn Dublin, two local commercial fran-chises were granted in addition to onenational commercial radio franchise.Of the three, only Classic Hits 98FMexists more or less in the same form,although even it has undergone somesignificant changes since it first beganbroadcasting six years ago.

Century Radio, the first nationalcommercial station, proved a messyfinancial disaster. The station beganwith the overwhelming handicap oftransmission coverage which only

SUPERSTARS C)F THE80's 8. 90's

reached 35% of the country's popula-tion. It recruited big -name broadcast-ers from national pubcaster RTE 1,but they mostly floundered withoutthe immense back-up of research facil-ities available at RTE. The stationclosed after just two years on the air.

The third station, and the secondDublin franchise, has had a chequeredcareer. It began as Capital Radio play-ing EHR and teen pop. It captured anaudience, but it was one that didn't

attract advertisers, who switched tothe formulaic Classic Hits 98FM,which operated strict research -drivenprogramming by a seasoned bunch ofNew Zealand radio professionals.

With a reasonable audience butinsufficient revenue, Capital under-went a radical change and becameRock 104. Unfortunately, the switch

proved disastrous. Audience figuresfell (although it maintained a loyalcore audience) while advertising rev-enue figures also continued to fall.

Three years ago, Rock 104 trans-formed itself again, this time intoFM104. Not rock, not EHR, definitelynot "Classic Hits"/gold and not exactlyACE either, the FM104 format hasturned the station's fortunes around.Under the guidance of chief executiveDermot Hanrahan and marketingmanager, Margaret Nelson, the sta-tion has at last become profitable.

FM104's change in fortune hascome about in part because of signifi-cant movements in the Irish musicbusiness. With the continuing world-wide success of Irish rock and folk

acts such as U2, Hothouse Flowers,the Cranberries, the Chieftains,Sinead O'Connor, Enya, Clannad andBoyzone there has been a growingsense of the incongruity of a constantdiet of old hits from the '60s, '70s and'80s.

The international movementtowards broadcast quotas for locallyproduced music has found fertileground in Ireland. The "Jobs InMusic" campaign began its own planto persuade local radio stations toplay more Irish music, and its numberone target was Classic Hits 98FM.FM104, meanwhile, introduced itsown voluntary "quota" of Irish music.Classic Hits responded by introducinga late -night Irish music show that hassince become a regular nightly fixtureon the station, presented by formerSomething Happens! lead singer, TomDunne.

The Gap NarrowsIn the past 12 months the gapbetween FM104 and Classic Hits98FM has begun to narrow. ClassicHits has maintained its traditionalposition as the number one music sta-tion in Dublin, but its once dominantgrip has become increasingly tenuous.

There are two main reasons forthis. Firstly, the appeal of the rigid"Classic Hits" format has begun todiminish among the Dublin audi-ence-there are only so many "classic"oldies you can play year in, year out.More contemporary music program-ming has begun to seep into ClassicHits' daytime output, with Irishartists such as Mary Black, Enya andRevelino being heavily championed bythe station.

Secondly, FM104 has made sub-stantial changes in its own program-ming. In an effort to raise the age of

But stationchiefs kept their nerve andinsisted that the downturnwas temporary, and mere-ly a reflection of thedecline they had haltedwith the new program-ming.

Only recently have thefigures borne out thisargument. FM104's audi-ence and marketshare hasrisen substantially. Moreimportantly, the figures show the sta-tion has made the transition to anolder, more advertiser -friendly audi-ence without losing too much of its coreyouth audience.

Classic Hits 98FM has not takenthe challenge lying down. It hasresponded with a new late -night cur-rent affairs chat show hosted by for-mer national newspaper editor VincentBrowne as an antidote to the hugelypopular night-time phone-in showhosted by Chris Barry on FM104.

Dubliners, like all Irish people,have an insatiable appetite for newsand current affairs. They like to talkand listen to themselves talking, andenjoy a good row and debate. The 20%

siveness of the new com-mercial stations, Dublinonce again has a flourish-ing population of pirateradio stations. Churningout house, jazz, rap,garage, jungle and technomusic on 24 -hour tapeloops, they are generallymanned by local clubDJs. The stations have noadvertising and even lesschat.

At the very most, thepirates use their illicitairtime to promote theirown club events and pro-motions. Since no adver-tising is carried, theauthorities appear tohave turned a blind eyeto the situation, and thecommercial

stations are not particular-ly bothered because they'renot losing any revenue.

The new pirates' audi-ence is that mass of disen-franchised youth who havefound something new tolisten to, illicit and com-pletely confusing to theirparents. It is, as one seniorradio producer told me,"the homework music ofchoice".

With the imminentarrival of the new "RadioRiverdance" national com-mercial station which is FM104 marketing manager Margaret Nelson (left)expected to begin broad- and chief executive Dermot Hanrahan (right)

casting in November, the commercialstations are looking to consolidatetheir own advertisers with specialoffers, promotions and sponsorshipdeals. Privately, though, they confide itwill be the new station's problemrather than theirs. At the risk ofsounding complacent, they have theirown battle to fight-and it's betweenthemselves.

Community radio, meanwhile, hassatisfied the IRTC's desire to bringradio to localities which don't have thecommerce to support it. But they haveyet to tackle the issue of more special-ist music programming and possiblythe issuing of licences in the city toradio stations who might deliver nichemarket music to smaller audiences.

Then they'd have to shut down thepirates all over again.

Radio Rosa: Station With A Causeby Charles Ferro

STATION IN FOCUS

Denmark's Radio Rosa is a talk andmusic station that offers listeners abroad selection of subjects, but has aspecial interest in one pressing issue."No item related to HIV-the virus thatcauses AIDS-is ever ignored," sayshead of station Erik Ladefoged.

If a definition must be found, thenRadio Rosa is Copenhagen's gay andlesbian station. "We began in 1984 asan entity within Denmark's Interna-tional Gay and Lesbian Organisation,and worked under that umbrella untiltwo years ago, when the organisationwent bankrupt," explains Ladefoged."But we reorganised, and Radio Rosacontinued on its own. We are, ofcourse, still in contact with the organi-sation."

No ProfitsRadio Rosa broadcasts for around fourhours every day. A two-hour eveningtransmission, which begins at 21:30, isrepeated at 15:00 the following day.The length of the daily broadcasts varyslightly, but these are the general timeslots. Broadcasts cover the greaterCopenhagen area and have a potentialaudience of more than one million.

Rosa is a non-profit organisation, andall tasks are undertaken by 30-40 vol-unteers who donate their time for free.

"We'd like to play more music, butwe simply do not have the budget forit," Ladefoged reports. "Some pro-grammes consist of more than 20%music, but overall, the music ratio isless than that. We don't have playlists,and don't have our own col-lection of records. Recordsare brought into the stationby the people who workhere, so it makes for a broadmixture of music."

Ladefoged claims thatrecord companies don't sendthe station product becausethere are too many localradio stations in Denmark,and the labels say they can'tsupply all of them. "We tryto play music that is politi-cally relevant to a program-me's subject," he says, "Sowe play Janis Ian and a lotof the Danish artist AnneLinnet. Music by gay artistsis heavily featured, but it'snot dominant; music that is'happening' is what's playedmost."

Radio Rosa's music mix is splitroughly 50/50 between foreign anddomestic artists. The station also playsa lot of soundtracks and extracts from

films, normally in connection with areview or discussion of a film.

A weekly fixture is Sunday's "RadioRosa Report", which brings togethernews, current issues of political debateand cultural items. New releases arealso often topics of discussion on thisprogramme, which normally runs fortwo hours.

Another popular show on Rosa is"Homo Plus," broadcast fortnightly onFriday evenings. "The show is hostedby two young DJs who play a lot ofnewer dance and disco music," explains

Ladefoged. "There is some talk as well,but this show is probably 40-50%music."

HIV InformationEvery other Wednesday, Rosa broad-casts one of its most important pro-grammes, "HIV, Hope and Charity." It

is a 90 -minute slot whichdeals comprehensively withthe AIDS issue. "It is mainlya speech programme, butmusic is used to complementthe topic under discussion,"Ladefoged says. "In thisshow, and others, we providea lot of information aboutHIV and AIDS- newresearch, patents, treat-ments, items about hospices,new political dimensions ofthe problem. And as much aspossible we follow-up storiesin order to provide the mostcomplete coverage possible."

To help fund its program-ming, Radio Rosa sends outbank forms to its listeners.Through this, donations arechanelled into an account

called "Friends of Radio Rosa." ErikLadefoged says that annual contribu-tions amount to around DKr 80.000(approx. US$14.000), most of whichgoes to performance rights payments.

Downtown Radio's Birthday ScoopDowntown Radio I Newtownards has weathered astormy 20 years during which time it has carved outa niche for itself at the forefront of news reporting inNorthern Ireland. Reason enough to celebrate!Dermott Hayes reports.

DO VIotpd..t>tr

The first newsflash carried on thefledgling Downtown Radio on March16, 1976 was a nationwide exclusive.Chief executive David Sloanremembers it well. "It wasHarold Wilson's [then UKprime minister] resigna-tion," he recalls. "I ripped itoff the machine myself, randown to the newsroom andread it out on air. We wereonly five hours on air bythen, but people began totake us seriously."

It's a story he loves totell. Back then David Sloanwas a newsroom reporter.Now he's the chief execu-tive. It was good reporting,but more importantly, itillustrates how Downtownstarted as it intends to con-tinue.

That scoop was just thefirst in a 20 -year history ofextensive and ground-breaking news coveragethat has made the station abyword for high standards and excel-lence in news coverage and reporting inNorthern Ireland.

Chronicle Of StrifeIts news coverage has also become aunique daily chronicle of the life of thewar -torn northern Irish province, adaily catalogue of strife, murder, bomb-ings and death. "Our reporters wereoften on the scene before the army,"says Sloan.

Downtown's style in covering thenews tends to lean towards the "whenit happens, as it happens" of radio ver-ite. There is no fixed format for thenews apart from a three -minute bul-letin every hour on the hour. But newsupdates are also provided every 20minutes in the morning and a bulletinevery half hour.

While news is the central ethos ofthe station, its appeal as a regionalcommercial station is much broaderand populist. More than 300 hours aweek of special interest programmingare broadcast-from rock, folk and jazzmusic to sacred music, religious pro-grammes, drama, travel, business andcurrent affairs. Its appeal is, above all,strictly local.

Sloan says it is Downtown's "local-ness" that provides the station's endur-ing appeal. "The fact is, we relate to ourlisteners and they relate to us. We have

always promoted an open door policyfor them."

Among Downtown's loyal crew thatdate back to the station's early days onair is Ulsterman Sloan, who read thestation's first nationwide exclusive onair, and is now MD and chief executive;John Paul Ballantine, the first DJ tospin a record at the station, and now

Partying In BelfastIn celebration of the 20th birthday thestation had what Sloan described as"the party of the year" in Ross's Auc-tion Rooms in Belfast on March 1.There were 500 guests with music sup-plied by local hero Brian Kennedy, for-mer Eurovision champion, NiamhKavanagh and The Drifters. As part ofthe birthday celebrations and to fur-ther buttress the station's unique bondwith its listeners, it has gone on theroad this month with a tour of 20 townsof Ulster, complete with weather andtraffic reports from the "DTEye in theSky."

Causes for celebration are abun-dant. The station's licence has justreceived another eight -year renewal.Five new transmitters have come onboard-four for Downtown and one forCool FM-and the latest audienceresearch figures show its position asUlster's top station remains unassail-able.

Every week over 300.000 peopletune in to Downtown Radio. The com-bined market share of the Ulster audi-ence amounts to one-third of the avail-able listening hours. Attention to

Local Base/World ReachUnlike many local stations in the UK,Downtown is owned by a local compa-

M & M REPOR T FRYDERYK AWARDS

Polish Awards Stature GrowsJust one hour before the Fryderyk gala was to bebroadcast live, Poland's main TV news programmeannounced the arrival of two members of Queen,who, according to the bulletin, had come to collect aplatinum disc for Made In Heaven as well as (whatshould have remained a secret)-the Fryderykaward for Best Foreign Album. As Roger Taylorand Brian May's short visit was good publicity forthe event, nobody really objected to the "leak."

by Mina Dragan

Organisers had made some changes tothe event following protests last year.Then the award presented to winnersportrayed Chopin as a rocker with apierced ear, but this year it wasreplaced by an abstract and "safer"sculpture, best described as "an fdrowning in a glass." The number ofclassical entries was raised from oneto four, which seemed to appease mostcritics, as comments in the press thisyear were positive.

On a minor note, the day of theaward ceremony coincided with theWarsaw burial of Krzysztof Kieslows-ki, one of Europe's outstanding filmdirectors. One of many famous mourn-ers attending the funeral was Zbig-niew Preisner, who composed themusic score for almost all of Kies-lowski's films. Later that day he washonoured with a Fryderyk award asBest Classical Composer. Preisner didnot accept the award in person, butsent a letter apologising for hisabsence and stating, "[I] would neverbe where I am now without the uniquetalent and friendship of Kieslowski."

There were awards presented in 21categories, but attention was mostfocused on the Best Female Singerprize. Competition was fierce amongrepresentatives from Poland's galleryof outstanding female singers. Lastyear's winner of Best Singer and BestAlbum awards Edyta Bartosiewiczwas a strong candidate, as were the

equally popular Edyta Gorniak, KasiaKowalska, Anita Lipnicka and Kayah.The much -coveted prize went toKayah, who last year recorded herfirst album Kamien (Stone) for theindependent record company Zic-Zac.

Signed to Zic-Zac, founded by DeMono (one of Poland's leading bands),the act Varius Manx made off withthree Fryderyk awards. Althoughsinger Anita Lipnicka left the group atthe end of last year to start a solo car-rier, the band, Anita included, wenthome with Best Album (Elf), Group OfThe Year, and Best Composer-forband member and composer of all thegroup's songs Robert Janson. Theopinion of the Academy coincides withthe public's taste: Elf went doubleplatinum and sold close to 0.5 millionunits.

Proud award winners Grzegorz Turnau and Anita Lipnicka.

Kasia Kowalska

Although Pomaton/EMI's local ros-ter now includes artists from variousmusical genres, its roots lie in lesscommercial music styles such as poeticsongs and cabaret. This still seems tobe its forte, as of the seven awards thelabel's artists received, three are fortraditional and poetic music. GrzegorzTurnau took the Best Male Singer OfThe Year award, and his To Tu, ToTam (It's Here, It's There) was recog-nized as the Best Poetic Album. Thenew band Szwagierkolaska wasawarded Best Traditional Album forits debut record.

Poland's representative at the 1994Eurovision Song Contest Edyta Gorni-ak was nominated in a few categorieslast year, but left the ceremony empty-handed. This year, however, the artistcollected two awards-one for BestVideo Clip (directed by Nigel Askaw)for the song Dotyk (Touch) off her self -titled debut album, and one for DebutOf The Year. Gorniak, who hasachieved great popularity in the Polishmarket, is now recording an album inEnglish, to be released in September.

The first Polish -language rapperLiroy surprisingly won in two differentmusic categories: Best Dance Albumand Best Alternative Music Album-confirming the cross -over attraction ofthis successful artist.

For Kasia Kowalska 1995 was adream come true. She started by win-ning the 1994 Fryderyk for Debut OfThe Year, and then won the GrandPrix of the International Song Festivalin Sopot. She recorded a CD with herfavourite Koncert Inaczej (DifferentConcert), and was chosen to representPoland at the Eurovision Song Festi-val in Oslo. To top it all, A To Co Mam(All I've Got), which won her the Sopotaward, brought her the Fryderyk forBest Song Of The Year.

Again hosted by Polskie Radio Pro-gram 3 DJ Marek Niedzwiecki andKora, lead singer from Maanam, theawards ceremony was graced with liveduet performances by Kayah togetherwith Andrzej Krzywy (singer from DeMono), Justyna Steczkowska withEdyta Gorniak and Stanislaw Sojkawith opera diva Malgorzata Walews-ka.

The second edition of the Fryderykawards, while not without some con-troversy, was considered a success.Even the very critical Polish press wasgenerally positive. Nevertheless, theorganisers-ZPAV, Polish Radio &TV-see some room for improvement.They have decided that the selectioncriteria for voting members willbecome more strict, and not all mem-bers will be asked to vote for all cate-gories. Also, the event needs a largervenue. As with Germany's EchoAwards, the public will be grantedaccess to enliven the occasion. But thebiggest question still remains, "Willthe Fryderyk statue return?" Manyindustry executives expressed theirregret that the "rocking Chopin" stat-uette was dropped. Perhaps after thisyear's event even the most conserva-tive defenders of Chopin's image willagree with the reinstatement ofPoland's own musical icon.

M & M M U ARTISTS IN PROGRESS

One Man's Vision Of Growing Olderby Machgiel Bakker

LONDON - Since leaving Wham! in 1986to become a solo artist, George Michaelhas not been over -industrious.Following the band's final concert atLondon's Wembley Arena on June 281986, Michael has only released threesolo albums in 10 years, the third ofwhich, Older, will see the light of dayon May 13.

The release won't be supported bypromotion, says Michael's managerAndy Stephens. "When things settledown," he says, "we might considersomething. But at the momentpromotion will not come hand -in -handwith the album's release." Older,released through Virgin in Europe, wasrecorded in London's Sarm Weststudios, home of the previous twoalbums. According to Stephens,Michael has been working on the albumalmost in "total isolation. He writes,produces, sings and once in a while hegets the engineer in to fix something;but primarily, it's him on his own."

The 11 -track, 57:24 minutes albumis written, arranged and produced byMichael and features only twocollaborations-one co -production andco -write with Jon Douglas (FastLoveand Spinning The Wheel, respectively)and one co -authorship with DavidAustin on You Have Been Loved.Despite this one-man vision, the soundof Michael's new record is cohesive andsolid. Although not taking him directlyin a new artistic direction-Michael's

two tiademarks, orchestral ballads andup -tempo funky pop are amplyfeatured -Older will surprise manybecause of its consistent highquality and overall energy.

Music & Media presentsan exclusive track -by -trackanalysis:

Jesus To A Child (6:50).The well-known ballad,premiered at the MTVEurope Music Awards inBerlin in 1994 and, earlierthis year, a number one onEHR for five consecutiveweeks. FastLove (5:24). The newsingle, just serviced toEuropean radio but officiallyout on April 21, is a great'70s -style dance track,previewed in the last issue ofMusic & Media.

Older (5:32). Themagnificent title track isanother dramatic ballad.Written on the piano, it hasMichael whispering his pensive lyricsamongst a moody production. Somefour minutes into the song, anemotional and plaintive trumpet solokicks in that stretches the song tohallucinary proportions. Spinning The Wheel (6:21). After abluesy start, this song-which has "hit"written all over it-surrenders to hip -hop beats and samples, featuring aMassive Attack -like guitar lick by Alan

Ross. The song's drive comes from thequestion and answer -style of the choruswith the background vocals taking over

and relaying much of the song'smessage. A totally addictive mid -temposhuffle and a killer chorus. After 4:55,the song loses (radio) momentum andwanders off on a repetition of its basicriff. Doesn't Really Matter (4:49). Abasic and sparsely -arranged track withMichael's sleepy vocals right upfront.An innocent and charming pop song. The Strangest Thing (6:00). With

much echo on the vocals, this swayingsong is based on a prominent butsimple bass pattern enhanced by arepetitive oriental melody line. To Be Forgiven (5:21). Probably themost indirect and ambitiouscomposition on the album, it jigs alongto a slight bossa nova beat adorned bysubtle flute lines and almostimperceptible acoustic guitar chordchanges. A pretty complicated structurethat seems to be lacking a chorus. Move On (4:45). Animated partychatter starts off this lively, finger-snappin' pop jazz number. After three -and -a -half minutes of cool swing, theparty atmosphere returns and movesslowly into the next song: Star People (5:15). Another funkydance track with a straightforwardproduction propelling a verydetermined groove. You Have Been Loved (5:27). Thethird ballad on the album. Anunashamedly romantic compositionwrapped in warm sounds; each rhythmbeat and each note of the electric pianohas its own place. Featuring the subtlechord changes that we have come toexpect from Michael. Free (2:59). The shortest track onthe album is largely instrumental witha warm soprano sax leading the way.After a minute it breaks into a hip hopbeat which has a rerun of the melodyline of The Strangest Thing. The songends with five words, "Feels Good To BeFree", a sweet -spoken reference toMichael's court case with Sony.

Lazlo Returns With Her Back To Frontby Marc Maes

BRUSSELS - It's been five years sinceBelgian chanteuse Viktor Lazloreleased her last studio album MyDelicious Poisons. With a newalbum-recorded in French (Verso) andEnglish Back to Front-she resumesthe path she left after her 1991 albumto concentrate on a film career andbringing up her child.

Born to West -Indian parents whoraised her in both French and English,Lazlo spent much of her youth inBelgium. As an art student andfreelance model, she laid down a firmbasis for her later career. It was Frenchsinger Alain Chamfort who picked herto sing Backdoor Man for a Frenchmovie score. The song was also featuredon Lazlo's 1985 debut album She,which included the internationally -acclaimed Sweet, Soft And Lazy. Thealbum blends pop, soul, jazz and latininfluences and turned gold in Belgium.It was released as Canoe Rose inFrance where the French version of thealbum track Stories became a huge hit.

She released three more albumsfrom 1987-1991, with composers andmusicians like Chris Rea, the CountBasie Orchestra and Toots Thielemans.All of them were released in bothFrench and English, demonstrating thesinger's capacity to embrace an

international audience. Lazlo'smanager Herman Van Laarcomments, "Youmight even say this isone of the challengesof breaking ViktorLazlo as she's hard tocatagorise because ofher broad spectrumboth in music andlanguage."

For her latestalbum Verso/Back ToFront, Lazlo returnedto the Bahamas toCompass Pointstudios where shepartially recorded her1987 Viktor Lazloalbum. She is nowsigned to East Westin France. "In thebeginning, we signeda licence deal withPolydor divisions inFrance, Germany andJapan, which thenwas molded into oneglobal deal withPolyGram Inter-national," says VanLaar. "Then hercontract was transferred to PolydorGermany but I have to say that thecoordination between different Polydor

affiliates was not optimal-one of thereasons why we opted for East West."

The idea to recordboth in French andEnglish has paid off asthe English versionhas been appreciatedby the German andDutch audiences; it'salso remarkable to seehow the Japaneseprefer the Frenchalbum version. "Forthe first time we arealso thinking ofreleasing some of thealbum's songs inSpanish," commentsVan Laar, "whichillustrates the ver-satility of the artist."

Paris -based inter-national exploitationmanager EstelleCohen comments onthe five-year gapbetween studio al-bums. "It's not thatViktor Lazlo retiredfor a five yearsabbatical, becauseactually she's never

been away and we really don't have tostart from scratch. Her appearances inmovies and films kept her in the

spotlight. It took her almost four yearsto record this last album in twolanguages." As a result of herinvolvement in cinema and acting,songs of the new CD will be featured invarious TV -series and films, all airingin the months to come. A promotiontour will take Lazlo across Europe untilmid -June and Van Laar says a concerttour will be scheduled for this autumn.

One of.the first stations in Germanyto air My Love was NRW Oberhausen;it entered the station's playlistimmediately based on audienceresearch. Music programmer UlrikeFerdinand explains, "We immediatelyliked the song and included it in ourweekly new releases show 'Soundcheck-Neuvorstellungen' where we invitelisteners to give their opinion on newsongs. The reaction was overwhelmingand we put it on the light rotation list(at least three plays a week) but wemight end up giving it two plays a dayif positive reactions continue."

BRTN's Radio Donna DJ/producerMark Deschuyter comments, "Wehave the single Ces Reyes on B -rotationwhich means two plays a day. Thealbum was 'Album of the Day' and onApril 1 Viktor Lazlo was scheduled tobe in the studio for live interviews. Shemeans a lot to us as an artist and weplan to devote quite some attention toher new album."

M & M MUSIC NEW RELEASES

SinglesPROPHETS OF DA CITY

'MPH TS OF OACSITY

Muthaland Funk- Nation/Beggars Banquet ehr/dPRODUCERS: Daniels, AriefdienA promising prelude to the upcomingGhetto Code album, these remixes ofolder material by the South African rapcrew are a wonderful mixture ofAfrican roots and state of the art hiphop. The FunADa^Mental Remix hasan aggressive rock guitar sound and alikewise beat a la Urban Dance Squad.EHR will be charmed by the more tech -no oriented Live It! Remix with itsSouth African choir, rap and ragga.

BABA NATIONRaggamuffin Mini - Warner ehr/dPRODUCER: David EriksenThe Arctic circle can get pretty steamy,judging from this Norwegian funk stom-per with its infectious beat, sexy malevocals and disco licks. The SoftsoundRadio Edit is smoother, more R&B andeven sexier.

HORACE BROWNOne For The Money- Motown ehr/acePRODUCER: Kevin DeaneThe original boasts a delightful slow R&Bgroove, the kind that does well in the US.EHR will love the C&C Music FactoryRadio Edit (3:39) which has a lot morebpm's. Brown's seductive voice is pouredover the fast beat and background vocals.

DOOPRidin' - Clubstitute/CNR ehr/dPRODUCERS: Ferry, GarnefskiThe two Dutch producers who conqueredthe worldwide charts with theircharleston house hit Doop have suc-cumbed to the easy listening trend. Ridin'is an up -tempo tribute to the mid -Atlanticcorniness of Mike Flowers. It has a fasthouse beat, but the deep vocals are remi-niscent of '70s Elvis material. The doo-.wop Easy Ridin' mix is hilarious.

MICK HARVEY & ANITA LANEHarley Davidson - Mute r/aPRODUCERS: Mick Harvey,Victor Van Vugt, Tony CohenMembers of the Nick Cave entourage dooffbeat versions of Serge Gainsbourgsongs. The title track has an unpre-dictable guitar, but the dramatic, orches-tral The Song Of Slurs and its parlandoby Harvey echo Cave's recent collabora-tions with female singers. They get reallywarmed up on the fast pop feast of Who Is"In" Who Is "Out".

INFINITE MASSRide - RooftopPRODUCER: Rod -6Winners of three Swedish Dance MusicAwards, this trio has once again delivereda delicious g -funk single with plenty offunky, old school keyboards. The mid -tempo, clapping beat is vintage SugarHill Gang.

ehr/d

MAI TAIAfrodisiac - Blue Print ehr/acePRODUCERS: Lenssen, Masevski, DrakeemThe Dutch grand ladies of funk are backin splendid style. Programmers can chosebetween the Smooth Radio Mix, which isslower and soulful, and the Rough RadioCut with its heavier beat, funky guitarand no nonsense vocals.

MALIKMalixmix - WEA ehr/d/wPRODUCERS: Davout, SpartacusThe Aiwa club edit is an up -tempo NorthAfrican rai melody with a super groovydance beat. The percussion in the introdrags the listener into the song and thenMalik bursts into full swing. Ethnic tech -no at its best.

MAXWELLTil The Cops Come Knockin' - Columbia ace/ehrPRODUCER: PM, MuszeR&B doesn't come any slower and moresophisticated than this. Maybe a little toorelaxed for EHR, but definitely a killer inits late night, ladies man genre.

MARK MORRISONReturn Of The Mack - WEA ehr/acePRODUCER: not listedHaving stormed the top 10 of the UK sin-gles chart; this mid -tempo groovy R&Bnumber could very well cross the channeland invade continental charts. Morrison'svocals are sharp and streetwise ratherthan smooth.

MR. BIGGoin' Where The Wind Blows - Atlantic ehrPRODUCER: Kevin ElsonAn unplugged -type ballad with simplepercussion, the sadness of this first singlefrom the new album Hey Man is ampli-fied by subtle strings.

EROS RAMAZZOTTIPiti Bella Cosa- DDD/RadioRama/BMG ehr/acePRODUCER: Eros RamazzottiLike George Michael, the Italian croonerhas taken things in his own hands.Ramazzotti has even created his own pro-duction company. The result is more R&Rand less sugary than the average Italianballad. Mike Landau's electric andacoustic guitars accentuate this up -tempo, soulful track, which is a perfectspring single. From the upcoming DoveC'e Musica album.

STABBING WESTWARDWhat Do I Have To Do?- Columbia a/rPRODUCER: John FryerThis US quartet has invented a newgenre single handedly: industrial grunge.The ambient intros in particular disquali-fy the group from EHR. There are nobeats in this song until 1:25, but then iterupts into mid -tempo R&R.

AlbumsBRENDAN CROKERThree Cord Lovesongs - CNRPRODUCER: Phil EvansCroker's weathered voice, slightly remi-niscent of J.J. Cale, sounds like it hasexperienced the blues first hand. Its depthis echoed by the simple steel guitar accom-paniment, which is never too sparse. Bren-dan Croker has plenty of soul, judgingfrom the gospel -influenced Wish That YouWere My Baby, the sad country song WishYou Would Stay and the bluesy ComeBack Home Today.

CAPTAIN JACKThe Mission - CDL/EMI ehr/dPRODUCER: Udo NiebergallTongue-in-cheek techno with a militarytwist, this German dance act has all theingredients to conquer the Europeancharts. The new single Drill Instructorsounds a little more hardcore, with astern Franky Gee and more femalevocals. Other interesting tracks are A-ha's Take On Me and the laid-back reg-gae Soldier Soldier Short Summer Mix.

JOYRIDERBe Special - Paradox/PolyGram r/a/ehrPRODUCERS: Stephen Harris, JoyriderFour Dublin boys set out to perpetuateIreland's impressive punk tradition andacquired a sound of their own in theprocess. The album's first tracks are vin-tage Undertones/Stiff Little Fingers-especially the fast and furious StrikesSparks Everywhere. When Joyrider slowsdown, on songs like Bible Black Belt andAnother Skunk Song, there's room forcatchy choruses and melodic hooks, whichmakes it eligible for EHR.

LILY MARGOTInsomnie - Columbia a/r/ehrPRODUCER: Doc MateoThe secret of Margot's success is creatingalluring atmospheres with her musicalaccomplice Doc Mateo. Most of the tracksare slow to mid -tempo, with unobtrusivehip -hop rhythms, a jazzy piano, stringsand the girlish voice as the icing on thecake. The duo is extremely versatile,veering from the slow oriental Le Feu toLes Portes De Ton Paradis, which isfaster with a louder, guitar -driven sound.More accessible is the subtle, almostwhispered Element.

NOACalling- Geffen ehr/ace/aPRODUCER: Rupert HineIsrael's own Tori Amos has followed upthe European success of her previous PatMetheny-produced album Noa with acomplex CD for advanced music lovers,with a couple of radio -friendly beautiesthrown in as well. The first single Lamais a mid -tempo song full of unexpectedrhythm changes and minor chord pro-gressions. Too Proud with its seductivepercussion, beckoning vocals and slightlyoriental flavour will charm programmers.

STONE TEMPLE PILOTSTiny Music...Songs From The VaticanGift Shop - Atlantic r/a/ehr

PRODUCER: Brendan O'BrienForget the Pearl Jam-grunge connota-tions. The Pilots have developed into anintriguing rock band which has discov-ered the pleasure of pop without losingany of its initial powerful sound. The gui-tars rage on, but unexpected melodiesgrab the listener by the throat. The slow,breezy And So I Know even comes closeto Everything But The Girl's jazziermaterial, while the first single Big BangBaby and Trippin' On A Hole In A PaperHeart are faster rock song.

SWAYMMM...Prepare To Be Swayed- MCA ehr/d/acePRODUCER: SwayNorwegian techno funk with plenty ofradio appeal. This solo artist sways fromone extreme to the other, combining ten-derness, anger and sensuality. The fastand loud Driven By The Devil has anindustrial feel a la Prodigy, while YumYum Gimme Some is a campy technotrack with disco overtones and a fat bassgroove. The poppy Missing Her Then andsoul -flavoured American Love are surpris-ing love ballads.

YULDUZ USMANOVABinafscha - Blue Flame w/ehrPRODUCERS: Zeus B. Held, Lenny McDowell

There is no ethnic cuteness about Uzbeksinger Usmanova. Her Turkish vocalstyle is perfectly matched by the lush pro-duction of Trans Global Underground'sZeus B. Don't be surprised if she turnsout to be world music's next big crossoverstar. Oriental melodies and trip hop beatsseem to made for each other. Albumopener Binaschfa with its fast dance beat,Indian percussion and swerving melodieswould sound great on EHR.

ALICE SPRINGS

alice springs just

Just - Radost/PolyGram ehr/ace/rPRODUCERS: Alice Springs, JaromirHelesicRecently picking up the Czech Gramyfor Best Newcomer, Springs proves tobe ready for some international adven-tures. Her self -penned Englishsinger/songwriter material clearlystands out among the Euro-dance,hard rock and country usually favouredby the Czechs. Springs owes more toJoni Mitchell and Joan Osbourne. Mostof the album tracks are low-key, well -produced folk ballads, sometimes lean-ing towards blues (Jeff). One MoreChance is a great mid -tempo rock songwith a loud intro, followed by catchymelodies and a bluesy piano.

Singles and albums featured in New Releases are listed alphabetically. Each record is recommended for format or programme suitability. Abbreviations used include: EHR (European Hit Radio), ACE (Adult Contemporary Europe),

R (Rock), D (Dance), C (Country), J (Jazz), NAC (New Adult Contemporary), A (Alternative), W (World) and M (Metal). Please send your samples to Thessa Mooij, Music & Media, PO Box 9027, 1006 AA Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

MUSIC & MEDIA SPOT LIGHT

Fine Tuning Jazz Broadens AppealJazzRadio, the Dutch cable station formally knownas Eurojazz Radio, was one of the pioneers of thegenre in Europe. Following last year's take-over,the station, launched in 1991, has been undergoingsome radical programming changes. Now it lookslike lady luck is smiling. Terry Berne reports.

AZZRADIO'S meta-morphosis was en-trusted to new PDMartijn Roos. Boththe new name and a

re -designed format have been inplace since November. "We regard itas essentially a new station," saysformer journalist and presenterRoos. The latest Intomart figuresgive the station a modest 0.4%share overall, though in the threelargest markets this rises to arespectable 2.0%. "This represents astart at virtually zero," Roos isquick to point out, "and with no pro-motion, except the strength of thenew format itself."

The new format is the key to thestation's rising fortunes. Previous-ly the station was linked by satel-lite with KLON FM, an all -jazz sta-tion in southern California, andpresented the entire spectrum ofjazz music both historically andstylistically, from swing to latin,from avant-garde to fusion. Specif-ic genres were clearly delineatedand scheduled to avoid the confu-sion inherent in such a wide reper-toire. Still, though some changeswere introduced, audience figureswere disappointing.

"I was confronted by a stationwith a lot of specialised hours,"recounts Roos. "Hours for be -bop,for blues, for swing. But nowadaysthere are a lot of different mediacompeting for people's attention,and modern listeners generallydon't tune in at specific hours tospecific shows. They either tune toone station or they tune to another.So we had to find a formula thatwould include jazz but attract awider audience. We want new lis-teners who may think jazz is diffi-cult, but we'll show them" that ithas many different sides to it."

Broad Base, Narrow FocusConsequently the station has bothbroadened its format beyond purejazz and narrowed its focus withinjazz to certain styles-completelyexcluding free jazz and dixieland forexample-while at the same timeclearly defining the pace and overallmix for the various dayparts. Nowstraight -ahead jazz is combinedwith soul, funk, R&B, acid jazz, andeven further afield styles like trip -hop, African high -life or zydeco.

"All through the day you hear amix of all these styles," commentsRoos. "There is less hard-core jazzthan before, but we still play be-

bop, hard -bop, cool and contempo-rary jazz. This new mix sometimesannoys some of the traditional jazzlovers, but there is a much largeraudience that loves it. We're play-ing their CD collection, but addingall kinds of things they don't have.We also like to play lesser knownsoul or jazz from the past."

Rhythm Links StylesIt's up to the 15 presenters to createwhat Roos calls, "A smooth wavethat moves gradually up and thengradually down, in tempo as well asin style." A typical wave might be ajazz tune followed by an instrumen-tal blues, then an R&B song fol-lowed by a soul track segueing intoa mellow hip -hop cut or jazz vocal."There is a logical way to go fromone extreme to another," he main-tains. "The important ingredient isthe groove. Of course we play bal-lads, but the music must maintain acertain momentum."

A recent mid -morning sessionincluded tracks by Joe Henderson,Billie Holiday, King Curtis, SamCooke, Van Morrison, Young Disci-ples, Aaron Neville, and MilesDavis. Mornings are generally cool-er than afternoons, when the pacepicks up with more funk, soul andacid jazz. Evenings are slightlymore jazz oriented, with an hourdedicated to blues, ending at mid-night. Each month Roos chooses aCD to be featured, from which eachpresenter is obliged to play a trackevery other day. Each DJ can alsochoose his own personal CD of themonth for daily play. Presentationis upbeat but limited. Though atfirst some sort of drive -time newsshow was considered, it was decid-ed to stick to an all -music format,except for artist interviews andspecial features. Until more pre-senters are hired, [music schedul-ing programme] Selector fills inlate night and some daytime hours.

Lure Special Audience"With a target audience of 20-50year -olds, it's difficult to pleaseeveryone" says Roos. But it's thesame audience, with above -averageincome and education level, whichis the station's principal trump cardover other stations in the region."We have a very specialised format,which attracts a special audience,and there are a number of productsrelated to that audience." In theorythat should make the station

Martijn Roos

attractive to advertisers who wantto target a specific audience. "Weoffer spots that advertisers knowwill score," argues Roos, "and theformula is beginning to work,though it took some time to con-vince them." JazzRadio has decidedto put a premium on that potentialedge, limiting its ad time to threeminutes per hour.

To strengthen its arguments thestation has undertaken two market

research projects. One is a full-scale audience survey. Promotion,which will begin this spring, focus-es on events and direct contactwith listeners as a way to empha-sise JazzRadio's distinctness fromother stations in the market.

Broad Cable NetThe other major advantage Jazz -Radio has over other stations inHolland is its broad network ofcable connections, allowing it to beheard in 97% of the country. Thispolicy of total coverage began withthe previous regime and has con-tinued under Roos.

When reminded that JazzFM/London has undergone similarprogramme changes and sufferedsimilar fluctuations in audiencefigures, Roos plays down the paral-lels. "London is a very differentmarket with a high awareness ofjazz. In order to survive we have tobe able to reach a broader audi-ence. We do that by mixing jazzwith other quality music and mak-ing the mix attractive to jazz loversas well as those unfamiliar withjazz."

Jazz ReviewsRICHARD GALLIANO

Laurita- DreyfusPRODUCER: Yves ChamberlandThe accordian has had a modestcareer in jazz, though indirectly ithasinfluenced players as divergent asDjango Reinhardt and Joe Zawinul(who played it in his youth). Thisvirtuoso, following the lead of AstorPiazzolla and with echoes of theFrench jazz -musette style, is theinstrument's most importantcontemporary exponent, and as hisrecent albums for Dreyfus clearlyproclaim, a superb jazz stylist andcomposer. Here he's accompanied bythree other maestros of the fringe:Michel Portal on clarinet, DidierLockwood on violin and TootsThielemans on harmonica. Contact:Daniele Feuillerat at tel: (+33)4.500 7707; fax: 500 2618.

PONCHO SANCHEZSoul Sauce - Concord/BellaphonPRODUCER: C.E. Jefferson/John BurkThe conga player, a long-time CalTjader cohort, leads an able ensemblein tribute to the former vibraphonistthat sparkles with his familiar funkylatin groove, by turns mellow andfiery, but always soulful. RubenEstrada sits in on vibes neatly meld-ing the cool west -coast sound withtropical spice. An enjoyable CDwhose title track-penned by DizzyGillespie and Chano Pozo-andSanchez' own Song for Cal are stand-outs. Contact: Ulfert Goeman at tel:(49) 69.271 20; fax: 271 2117.

TEODROSS AVERYMyGeneration - Impulse

PRODUCER: Carl GriffinWith a tone somewhere betweenPharaoh Sanders and Joe Henderson,the saxophonist's skills have broadenedsince his debut two years ago and hissong writing has added elements ofreggae and hip -hop. Despite his bid foran urban edge, this is an unexpectedlyreflective album that forgoes fireworksto focus on the leader's emotive play-ing. Though John Scofield's solo onTheme For Malcolm is notable, MarkWhitfield seems the aptest of thethree guitarists featured, and plays onthe date's best tracks, including NickCave's balladic Lover Man.

His puretone and lyricism make this one of thefinest trumpet performances of recentyears.

M& M CHAR TS SALES/AIRPLAY

Breakin' & EnteringA weekly Eurochart analysis by Ramon Dahmen

Due to early Easter deadlines, the USA Billboard Top 25 ismissing from this week's issue.

Thanks to imposing chart movement in allterritories contributing to the Top 100 Albums,Celine Dion's Falling Into You (Epic/Columbia)has leapt into the top spot. Although it's her firstalbum to reach the pole position, her previousalbums have performed well; The Colour Of MyLove charted for 86 weeks in 1994-96 and peakedat number 4, D'Eux stayed in the chart for almosta year with a number 3 peak position, and in

between the two came Live A L'Olympia (peak 60).With a fourfold increase in total chart points, Take That's Greatest

Hits (RCA) album has entered the top 10 and claims the number 2 posi-tion, fulfilling our predictions in last week's issue. With seven top 10positions-four of which are top spots-and new entries in Belgium (14),Finland (13), Holland (18), Norway (15) and Portugal (13), the chart vet-erans receive this week's Sales Breaker Award.

Music & Media is pleased to announce a new contributor to both itsEuropean charts-IFPI CR, the local IFPI Czech office which haslaunched a bi-weekly national countdown of singles and albums. Thisbrings our total number of contributing territories to 17. However, due toa lack of space, the Top National Sellers will show the Czech top 10 oneweek and the Hungarian countdown the next. Sponsored by Philips andpublished by Poplife, the Czech national list is compiled on the basis ofdata collected from 64 retail outlets. Because of very limited singlessales, the singles chart is based on a combination of airplay data andshipping information. Next week we will publish the most up-to-datechart, but here's a taster from March 15:

presenting a Saturday morningshow on Talk, also recently quitthe station to join BBC Radio 2.

TV and radio personalityPaul Ross will replace SimonBates on Talks breakfast show,which Bryant promises will be"fun and exciting." Ross has pre-viously presented Channel 4TV's "Big Breakfast" show andhas also worked on radio for Vir-gin and London Newstalk.

At drivetime, the veteranLBC and News 97.3 journalistPeter Deeley replaces ScottChisholm, who returns to themid -morning slot vacated byJonathan King. The station willalso introduce a sports phone-inshow every weekday evening.

Despite the extensive pre-senter changes, Bryant stressesthat Talks entertainment -based"chat" format will not be adopt-ing a harder news edge.

"We have been doing someextensive research amongst peo-ple who listen to speech radio,"

he says. "When we asked themwhether they wanted morenews, the answer was aresounding 'no'. I don't think theculture is here yet for a 24 -hournews station. But there is anopportunity for a good phone-inand talk station."

Bryant believes that theright choice of presenters is thekey to making Talk Radio's for-mat work. "The UK has not hada culture of talk radio, so findingthe right presenters has notbeen easy," he says. "Only asmall percentage of existingBritish broadcasting talent cando it-and some who it wasthought could do it, have notbeen able to."

According to the latestRAJAR figures, Talk Radio lost287.000 listeners during thefinal quarter of 1995. Its mar-ketshare of 1.5% is the lowest ofthe UK's national radio stationswith the exception of classicalpubcaster BBC Radio 3.

IRTC's Political Turmoilcontinued from page 1

As editor of Irish rock maga-zine, Hot Press, Stokes commis-sioned a regular opinion columnfrom the left-wing Labour partychairman. 'When Higginsgained his current ministershiphe appointed Stokes to thechair of the IRTC.

Higgins has dismissedclaims that Stokes' involvementin his fund-raising committeemay influence the granting ofradio licences as "patentlyabsurd."

Stokes admits he has beenfund-raising for the ministerbut claims he has been acting ina private capacity. Meanwhile, Stokes has pre-

sented the IRTC's annualreview of Ireland's radioscapein 1995. He says commercialradio in Ireland is entering itssecond phase of development asthe first round of local radiocontracts come up for renewal.

Stokes criticises indepen-dent radio for the lack ofresources spent on news andcurrent affairs for which thereis a 20% contractual require-ment.

However, he says that over-all 1995 saw positive stepsbeing taken in the developmentof the independent broadcast-ing sector in Ireland and drewparticular attention to theintroduction of 11 communityradio licences following an 18 -month pilot programme.

PctIcRIciRumoured This Week...

LNR To Relaunch Rolling NewsThe FM service of London News Radio-currently broadcasting as News97.3-is to be relaunched in mid -April by its joint -owners ITN. OTRhears that ITN is intending to return the station to a "rolling news" for-mat which its predecessor London Radio abandoned last year after dis-appointing RAJAR figures. GWR's relaunch of Newstalk 1152, mean-while, is being delayed until suitable premises are found for the station.

Holy Cow! The Best Moo MusicRadio programmers who feel the need to cash in on the current mad -cowdisease moo-haa, may be interested in playing a few tracks from a recentMesa/Bluemoon, Atlantic -distributed, album by US trio the Mermen,called Songs Of The Cows. It contains titles like Brainwash and 1 Of TheMoo. And while we're at it, Lee Dorsey's classic Holy Cow might also beappropriate or Rick Nelson's Milk Cow Blues and Ella Fitzgerald's Cow -Cow Boogie.

Airplay ActionEHR Top 40 commentary by Pieter Kops

Eros RamazzottiWhile Michael Jackson's They Don't Care About Usstorms up the top 5 in Radio Active form, the mostadded record on European Hit Radio this week isEros Ramazzotti's Piet Bella Cosa. The Italian popstar has collected a 21 -station roster that is entirelycomprised of additions, which has earned him a solidentry in the Chartbound section. To this date, heenjoyed two EHR hits -1993's Cose Della Vita,peaking at number 13, and UnAltra Te (peak 32).

On The RoadBorder Breakers commentary by Pieter Kops

Fool's Garden maintains its position at the topof the Border Breakers chart for the secondweek in a row. In fact, Lemon Tree is the 25thnumber 1 on this chart. Since its launch inOctober 1993, the top rank on the chart hasbeen held by 13 different acts signed in five dif-ferent countries. In total, seven songs fromGerman signings, seven from Danish signings,six from Swedish signings, three from Italiansignings and two from a Dutch signing havebeen occupying the pole position.

Ace Of Base and Roxette enjoyed the mostnumber 1 singles, both having topped the chartwith five songs. Snap, Whigfield, Rednex andScatman John all enjoyed two chart toppers,

Ace Of Base Roxette Scatman John

while the rest only had one each. The longestnumber 1 run was achieved by Scatman John'sScatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop) (1995, 11weeks), closely followed by Ace Of Base's LuckyLove (1995, 10 weeks). Ace Of Base also accom-plished the unique feat of occupying the top slotfor 19 consecutive weeks, as Lucky Love wasreplaced at the top by its follow-up, BeautifulLife (1996, nine weeks).

The charts on this page track the border -crossing movement ofproduct. The Border Breakers chart ranks the 25 most successfulContinental European records making airplay impact outside theircountry of signing (airplay achieved in the original country isexcluded from the calculations).

The second chart, Channel Crossovers, registers the airplaypenetration of UK -signed artists in mainland Europe, while thethird Top 25, the Atlantic Crossover chart, ranks the most suc-cessful Non -European artists according to airplay impact in

Europe.All three charts are non -format specific. "Country Of Signing"

is not necessarily an indication of where the artist comes frombut, more significantly, where he/she is signed. An increasingnumber of national artists are signed to "foreign" labels and M&Mwants to acknowledge the crossover impact of such deals.
