• Cm'lCERT REVIEW A COCKBURN CHRISTMAS and friends Sony Records Studio New York, NY December 17, 1995

or the last four or five years, Canada's Bruce Cockburn has invited a couple of Fhis musical friends to join him at Sony's Manhattan studio for a live-to-air Christmas concert. This year those friends were Patty Larkin, Peter Stuart (Dog's Eye View), and Jonatha Brooke (The Story) and a very merry time was had by all.

Onn knows straight away that these two have some insights into the human eondition; this. aftflr all. is what folk singers are for. But alas, the insights are nonexistent, by and large. The album's opening track, "Looks Like Sunshine" muses over ... well, something. It's often hard to guess what thn turw-smiths are talking about because they're so busy trying to rhyme. "You're on tlw right track/ You just got on the wrong train/ And it looks like sunshine/ But it fnnls like rain." WI!! I, what is it? Sunshine or rain? One has a lot of tinH~ to ponder these lyrical conundrums because the musical arrangenwnts arn inconsequential throughout the album. "Pendulum" rolls slowly ov1~r four minutes with chord changes that a tone-deaf person could predict. "Cry" is surprisingly bouncy, along the lines of James' "!.aid," considering that it's a hrnakup song. And it's a humorous one at that: ''I've learned the hardest lessons/ I won't curl up and die/ I'll stand up stone eold sober/ And be the toughest guy." Oh wait, they w1~ren't kidding. Granted, standing sober is preferable to falling down drunk. but didn't we already know this? That's the catch about this here plain folksy kind o' stull': you like to think a band is going to say or play something you've nev1~r lward. Where are the lyrical turns? Whither the haunting melodies, the echo­ ing guitar lines? Whither, for that matter, a good song? Lowen and Navarro, God help us, will likely record again. This has a little poten­ tial to lw a good thing. On the liner notes, they acknowledge some heady company: .John and Paul, Mick and Keith. Paul and Artie (Artie?). However, those influences wert~ mostly ignored here. In fact, Lowen and Navarro are not the sum of their parts as mueh us they are the sum of what's missing: the mood of Jackopierce, the wit of tlw Indigo Girls, the energy of the Bodeans.

"Now," said Philadelphia center Sharone Wright, "they have Superman, Batman and Rodman."

They knew he under­ mined the Spurs' bid for a championship last year and Saturday, January 20, 199Ei worried that he might not be the right fit in Chicago. They've found that under­ neath Rodman's colored hair - red three months ago, green three weeks ago, blond today, . ~. anyone's guess tomorrow - and underneath the tattoos and pierced skin, beats the heart of a team player. "We don't all hang out with each other off the court, but Dennis has been a good team­ mate," Jordan said. "He's will­ ing to do the dirty work, which is something we needed. And he's a lot better passer and a lot smarter than some people think." Rodman had one of his best games ever in Tuesday's 116- 104 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, pulling down 21 rebounds, scoring 10 points and dishing off a career­ high 10 assists. It was his first triple-double in 700 NBA games and it helped the Bulls improve to 32-3 overall and 19- 0 at home. "He prides himself on re­ bounding, but he's doing other things for us," Jordan said of the four-time league rebound­ ing leader. "He showed he could play an all-around game. People have to respect him." Chicago fans fell in love with him almost immediately. An enemy during his days with the , the Worm often draws more cheers than Jordan. He gets standing ova­ tions for even routine re­ bounds. And when he made his first 3-pointer of the season Tuesday, the crowd reacted as if the Bulls had won a playoff game. Rodman hasn't spoken to the media in recent days, but he said earlier this season that he likes to play up to the crowd "because they pay the big money and want to see a big show." "Right now, he's probably the fans' favorite," Jordan said. "They respect his work ethic. He does his job and deserves some reward."
