"That's the worst name I've ever heard for a rock band," Bogart is said to have told them. We have to admit that the Innocents is much more appropriate, and those with long memories might recall a group by the same name that once recorded for Kama Sutra Records. The Innocents will soon be embarking on an eight -city tour with Rick Springfield, kicking off with a March 7 date at the San Diego Sports Arena.

UP NORTH: Running through March 7 at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art is an exhibition called "Bay Area Personalities," consisting of a set of watercolor portraits by an artist named Jesse! (no, not as in George - at least we don't think so). There is only one musical performer among the portrait subjects, that being the outrageous Sylvester; he's in some pretty heavy company, too (and we don't mean the Two Tons of Fun), including the likes of Mayor Dianne Feinstein, prominent attorney Mel- vin Belli, writer/artist Maya Angelou, columnist Herb Caen and many more ... Caen, who writes for the SanFrancisco Chronicle, has also been added to the list of presenters for the upcoming Bay Area Music Awards (Bammies), set to be handed out on March 3 at the S.F.

The 64 -year -old jazz great had been in a coma for several days whenElektra/Musicians Signs McFerrin we wrote those words, and we knew, sadly, that his chances of pulling through were slim. The impact of Monk's recent death was muted by the simple fact that he had been off the scene for so long; it had been almost six years since he last appeared in concert, and over a decade since he recorded his last album. Still, as long as he was alive we could always cling to the hope, however faint, that he might one day perform again, and it's sobering to have to let go of that hope for good. But the legacy that Monk left was one of such unbounded joy and vitality that it is hard to be sad; his passing led us to go back to all the Monk albums in our collection, and that uniquely buoyant music brought a smile to our face that just wouldn't go away. Monk was more than just a purveyor of simple good-time sounds, of course. He created a remarkable new musical world that was completely personal and at the same time completely recognizable as part of the jazz tradition. Monk's music may not have sounded like anybody else's, but it always swung, it always had its own kind of lyricism, and it always made its own kind of sense. And although his style of playing the piano was so unorthodox that there were those who thought he simply couldn't play very well, everyone who plays jazz has learned something from MonkJazz/pop vocalist Bobby McFerrin has signed a worldwide recording agreement about self-expression, humor, rhythm, subtlety, and especially freedom. with Elektra/Musician Records, it was announced by label president Bruce The media gave Monk's death more attention than he sometimes re- Lundvall.
