Produced by Dave Tyson and Bob Bartoluc- ci, the label has issued What About Me as the first single from the LP. A video has also been released. After the release of The Minx, Canadian radio must have wondered what ever became of the energetic newcomer on the Canadian scene. By no means had Metz slipped into seclusion. She toured such territories as Ger- many, Norway and Switzerland where her album had been released. The LP was also released in Japan on the Epic label. Metz also continued her work in TV in the areas of commercials, TV specials, movies and other programs. Most recently she ap- peared in the documentary -drama Charley Grant's War. Her interest in show business started at an early age. At 13 she began dance training. "I want to do more film work, but I don't want to do t&a," she said. "I want to keep my integrity intact" RPM asked the 25 -year -old vocalist why it was so long between records. "We had to get out of the other contract. My first company did a lot for me. They were running around trying to get the record off the ground. They did the best they could." Metz stressed that there is a big difference between the two albums. "The first album was a learning ex- perience. I was never in a studio before and I was doing other people's material. The first was straight -ahead rock. This time, I'm the writer. It's more myself and I had a good pro- ducer. The songs are more dance -oriented and melodic. I'm much happier with this album." It had first been planned to release the new LP on Metz's own label. "We were in negotiations for six months with the label before signing. It was frustrating. I was doing tours and films. Meanwhile Attic continued to talk, but it took a long time. We finally signed in June." The singer pointed out the difficulty in Canadian artists acquiring record deals. "The majors don't want to look at you un- til you have your own master," she said. "I wish the people here would believe more in their own artists because there's so much talent. They should be supporting more than just a couple of acts. I see people around me who are so talented and I wonder why they're not signed." All songs on the album were written by Metz along with Bob Bartolucci who also handled guitar on the session. Dave Tyson contributes the keyboard work. Also on the session are drummer Jorn Andersen, bassist Mitch Starkman and percussionist Memo Acevedo. One of the big features of this album is the eye-catching and hypnotizing album jacket work by photographer Deborah Samuel and designer Dean Motter. Plans are in the works for Metz to embark on a major showcase tour of key clubs to begin in late spring or early summer. "There's no use in playing live if you're just going to be doing small dingy clubs," she added. Attic Records introduced a full-scale major national campaign to support Metz complete with posters and slicks, as well as display con- tests with selected accounts in various regions across the country. "She's a major artist for us already," said Lindsay Gillespie, Attic's Director of Sales & Marketing. "It's the most widely accepted record we've released in some time. We've got every CHR and AOR station on the record. "Radio has been very very supportive. And we're giving the project 110 percent as far as effort goes. The acceptance at CHR and AOR was immediate. Belinda is currently in the final leg of a promotional tour that's tak- ing her into Winnipeg, Edmonton, Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal and Ottawa. We're looking at breaking her in a big way." Gillespie added that the major cross- country showcase tour is to be tied in with a major fashion retailer as an added bonus. The Belinda Metz campaign represents the biggest project for Attic Records so far this year.

BELINDA METZ - AN ELECTRIC SPLASHEdmonton -born singer, actress, and dancer Belinda Metz, who established herselfseveral years ago with an album titled The Minx, has taken the plunge again andcreated an "Electric Splash" with her first Attic album.Produced by Dave Tyson and Bob Bartoluc-ci, the label has issued What About Me as thefirst single from the LP. A video has alsobeen released.

After the release of The Minx, Canadianradio must have wondered what ever becameof the energetic newcomer on the Canadianscene. By no means had Metz slipped into

seclusion. She toured such territories as Ger-many, Norway and Switzerland where heralbum had been released. The LP was alsoreleased in Japan on the Epic label.

Metz also continued her work in TV in theareas of commercials, TV specials, moviesand other programs. Most recently she ap-peared in the documentary -drama CharleyGrant's War.

Her interest in show business started at anearly age. At 13 she began dance training.

"I want to do more film work, but I don'twant to do t&a," she said. "I want to keepmy integrity intact"

"We had to get out of the other contract.My first company did a lot for me. They wererunning around trying to get the record offthe ground. They did the best they could."

Metz stressed that there is a big differencebetween the two albums.

"The first album was a learning ex-perience. I was never in a studio before and Iwas doing other people's material. The firstwas straight -ahead rock. This time, I'm thewriter. It's more myself and I had a good pro-ducer. The songs are more dance -oriented andmelodic. I'm much happier with this album."

Junos '85 set for Nov. date The Board of Directors of CARAS, the

Canadian Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, has announced Nov. 4 as the date

for the 1985 Juno Awards. The decision was made at the board's meeting held in the first week of March.

The Junos will be telecast over the CBC- TV network from the Toronto Hilton Har-

bour Castle Convention Centre in a theatre setting, with a dinner being held afterwards in

the same facility. Staged in early December in 1984, the show

has been moved up one month to give record companies and retailers more lead time to

promote Juno product to the Christmas market.

For 1985, the Junos will air at 7 PM in a bid to corral a perceived youth audience in

the 12 to 17 age bracket. Peter Steinmetz, recently re-elected as

President of CARAS, tells RPM that last year's Dec. 5 date for the Junos was the latest

anybody wanted it. "We canvassed a number of venues and the date was more a function of availability of venue," Steinmetz says.

"The optimum date for the record labels would be the 2nd or 3rd week of November.

For this year, the possibility of the Harbour Castle opened up for a Nov. 4 date - which

isn't that bad. The CBC was delighted . .. the

Monday is a better TV night, and we won't lose a portion of the audience to Dynasty like

we did last year. The teenage audience has control of the family TV in the 7-9 PM period, and that's the important audience for

the program." According to Steinmetz, complaints about

New Frankie documentary from Island

Island Records have released a 62 -min. documentary entitled Welcome To Frankie

Say Bang. The videocassette, sent to selected retail, radio, and print people, is intended as

a video summary of the success attained to date by Island recording act Frankie Goes To

Hollywood. The cassette represents the culmination of

a 6 -wk. pre-release campaign on Welcome To The Pleasuredome, the current single from the band's LP of the same name. The LP is

significantly over the platinum (sales of 100,000 units or more) status in Canada, with

the label anticipating sales in excess of double platinum. The videocassette includes live

footage and TV interviews. Constituting one of the most hyped bands in the history of

pop, the members of Frankie Goes To Hollywood rose from the tedium of the

unemployed ranks in their native Liverpool to captivate audiences internationally with

their sexually and politically explicit lyrics and cheeky manner with the press.

In the U.K., the two -record Pleasuredome LP's release last fall followed advance orders

in excess of one million units. Relax and Two Tribes, songs pre -released as singles, were at

one point positioned on the charts as No. 2

and No. 1 respectively. Both these went gold (sales of 50,000 or more) in Canada. A 3rd

single, Power Of Love, was released last November. Island Product is distributed in

Canada by MCA Records.

at Exhibition Place - were "legion". "Justifiably so," he maintains, continuing

with "there were too many pillars, it was too cold, and there was a problem with

washroom availability." As for the event's dinner, although many in the industry allud-

ed to the dubious quality of the meal served at last year's event, Steinmetz reports that on- ly "three or four complaints" were received

about the dinner portion of the evening. He indicates that "current is to stage

the event in Harbour Castle's Metropolitan Ballroom, with three or four other rooms to

be utilized for the dinner at 9 PM. Regarding his personal objectives for 1985 as President of CARAS, Steinmetz cites three: continuing

the effort to be responsive to the academy's membership (and increasing membership),

nurturing and stimulating the involvement of the various CARAS committees, and

specifically employing the academy's Ad- visory Committee to a greater extent. On the

subject of CFNY-FM's U -Know Awards, originally a good-natured spoof of the Junos, Steinmetz says "We delighted at the U -Know

Awards going to TV, and we support them as another opportunity for up and coming talent

in this country."

Kruize to new Capitol position

Capitol Records have announced the ap- pointment of Roel Kruize to the newly

created position of Vice -President and Managing Director, Record Division.

tor of EMI Holland since 1982, joining EMI in 1962 and holding positions in marketing,

A&R, and label management. In his position he will be responsible for Capitol's A&R,

sales, marketing, promotion, and inventory management.

Radio Canada Int'l celebrates 40th year

Radio Canada International (RCI), the exter- nal shortwave service of the CBC, marks its

40th anniversary in 1985. Many Canadians have come to rely on RCI while travelling or

working abroad. Through the facilities of six transmitters in

Sackville, N.B. and relay stations in the U.K. and Portugal, the service now broadcasts in

11 languages to Eastern and Western Europe, the U.S., Mexico, Central and South

America, the Caribbean, Africa, and the Middle East. The broadcast languages are

English, French, Russian, Ukrainian, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Hungarian, German,

Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese. In addi- tion, RCI feeds weekly programs by satellite

for broadcast in the Pacific Rim. These pro- grams consist of a weekly report in Japanese

to Tokyo, and more recently, a public affairs half-hour program in English to Hong Kong.

RCI also produces music and spoken -word

programs for distribution to domestic radio stations around the world. According to surveys and other sources, programming reaches a worldwide audience of over 10

million listeners every week.

THE MUSIC TRIVIA QUIZ BOOK Matthew & Tevin Abeshouse

$3.75 -

109 pages (PB) Avon Books of Canada

This is the first - and most likely not the last -

book for those video freaks who think they know every detail about their

favourite video star. Contains question after question about the old and the new

in the video world. Also featured in this 600 question/answer book is an 8 pg. photo

section including pics of Sheila E., Van Halen, The Jacksons and more.

There are 9 different categories featured including Clothing, Animation, and Lyrics.

As the only book published to date, dealing exclusively with music videos, this is a must

for the video fanatic. No info on who the authors are, but they have a good handle on

the subject i.e. In Men At Work's Be Good Johnny, what does Johnny write on the

blackboard? . .

How many times does Billy Idol sweat in Dancing With Myself? ..

. . Who almost runs over a chicken while

pulling into a motel? - trivia you wouldn't

normally concentrate on but almost guaran- teed to sharpen your senses from here on

In. -Sean La Rose

The mother anddaughter duo are currently making ap-pearances with The Oak Ridge Boys, RickySkaggs and Conway Twitty. No Canadiandates at press time. They were nominated fora Grammy for Best New Artist and will be ap-pearing on the American Music Awards onMay 6 where their single has been nominatedas Single Of The Year.

Duke Street hot on ValdyValdy, one of the big folk names of the '60sand early '70s has returned and set his sights

MacNeill bid for actionwith SummerSalt releaseRobbie MacNeill makes a strong bid for thecountry and A/C charts with his debut single(Once We Had Love) and LP, Pieces, releas-ed on George Condon's SummerSalt label.Condon reports heavy country programmerreaction to the single.

MacNeill is no stranger to the recordingfield, although most of his activity has beenbehind the scenes, as a songwriter, accom-panist, arranger, producer and music direc-tor. He is perhaps best known for his writingof Anne Murray material, the best known be-ing Robbie's Song, and A Million More,which he performs on the LP. The latter hasbeen covered in many countries includingSouth America where it was translated intoAfrikaans.

MacNeill's link with the Maritime Mafia,as they are known: Anne Murray, GeneMacLellan, Catherine MacKinnon, BrianAhern and Ken Tobias, goes back to his earlydays with CBC-TV's Singalong Jubilee.When Anne Murray took her first solo act onthe road, Haligonian, MacNeill was herguitarist. He later backed John AllanCameron and has since worked with manyCanadian performers including BruceCockburn, Dan Hill, and Valdy, to name justa few. He has also produced albums forCanadian acts, his most notable being AlbertHall's debut in 1982.

The SummerSalt label is based inMillbrook, Ontario.
