PRODUCED BY DAVID BRIGGS • DIRECTION: ELLIOT ROBERTS/LOOKOUT MANAGEMENT

Mark And Brian Go KGON Kosbau Korrection I only had to answer the phone a few times last Tuesday to realize a couple of things. One, Steve Kosbau has a number of very loyal friends — including KRNA owner Rob Norton and Joe Kelly, both of whom rushed to his defense. Two, John Tenaglia is still one of the world's most colorful phone calls. And three, according to the principals, the scenario that we reported as the deal breaker in Steve's negotiations to be WSHE's new PD wasn't the problem at all. Steve and John categorically Steve Kosbau denied that the reported "scene" at the dinner took place, and that contract negotiating problems constituted the real impasse. Quoting Steve's fax: "I had no personal problems with John Tenaglia, or anyone at WSHE Contrary to what the When something this big comes down, there's usually a hint of it here and Industry rumor mill has concocted, my dinner with John, his wife, and there. But ABC/Cap Cities, the Pollack organization, Carey Curelop WSHE's two sales managers was extremely pleasant. The issue was this: and, in this case, KGON, kept a tight seal on the deal. Effective this I accepted the job at WSHE contingent upon working out a contract. Monday, KLOS' flagship morning team Mark and Brian will be beaming their high cume LA morning show into The Rose City. Apparently, PD "If I had gone to work at WSHE without a contract, for even one minute, I Dick Sheetz and KGON's upper management got wind of the syndication would have breached my current deal with Summit Communications. plans some months ago, made their nightmoves, and can now lay claim to This would have left me and my wife extremely vulnerable. My intention being first on a concept that will obviously hit and stick. As Dick says, was to work out the details of the contract when I arrived in Miami. We "KLOS did not offer it. We just heard it was available and pursued it. We did not, and to protect the balance of my contract with Summit, I left. It then found out it was within our realm, not only financially, but artistically. would have been pointless to stay, because John had to leave town on an They're exactly what we've been looking for. "What about Dave and important business trip. All along, he knew that I could not work, and Tom, three year morning show vets at KGON? "This has nothing to do would leave, without a completed contract. with their ability. In fact, I would make an open plea to anyone who can- not afford Mark and Brian, but who needs a great morning team, to call "Secondly, because I had accepted the job contingent upon working out Dave and Tom at (503)650-2474. They were doing a really good job for and executing a contract, which did not happen, I did not change my us, but we needed to go the next step up." And why does Dick think it'll mind. It surprised me to hear about Gary Lewis' (WSHE General fly? "We can safely say that other satellite programs that are all talk have Manager) comments in your article. Gary was never part of my negotia- fared well in other markets. Portland has not had what I would call a tions with WSHE Until I heard about his published statement, I thought 'morning show' for many years. There's been a bunch of different people that I would be having further discussions with John Tenaglia about work- doing a morning program, but this will be a real show. And, expanding ing out a contract and going to WSHE. John and I tried to reach each from our niche, this opens us up to anyone who wants to hear talk and other as late as last Wednesday, May 26. entertainment radio. As opposed to just drawing from our direct competitors, we will now draw from every station." The first practical step in the "You were wrong to imply that I accepted, then declined the programming reported five year deal with the station? After the ink is dry, that is? Get job at WNOR. Joe Schwartz, WNOR's General manager, or Steve the Director of Operations for recently formed KLOS Syndication on site. Goldstein, Saga Communications' Executive Vice President, will ver- Of course, that would be Carey Curelop. His role will be to help in the ify this. We talked, we became friends, but I did NOT accept the WNOR development of the network and oversee the operation. Cap Cities owns job. the company; Mark and Brian are also partners. As for the first trip to KGON last week, Carey's main concern was "reviewing the structure of the show, answering questions about how the show works and what the sta- "You are correct about me committing to, then declining the programming tion can expect — as it impacts sales, marketing, promotions, and engi- job at WLVO, more than two years ago.

The KGON deal calls for Mark and Brian to visit and So, there you have it, the accurate facts from the parties involved.

Now, they're working on going on, then it became just a matter of time to broadcast a stereo FM mix illegally to yourself get to know them and to pick the right company. their own deal instead of giving it to me and then on stage. I tried it out and it worked so well that One who was going to be in focus at the time we having to catch up. I feel sorry for somebody I said, 'Alright, let's do five of these.

THE HARD REP ORT JUNE 4, 1993 TOP PRIORITY teve Miller Band, "Wide River", Sailor/Polydor It's about time to start thinking of Steve Miller as a talented, veteran rocker, with a knack for cranking out massive hits! The guy who pumped out "Take The Money And SRun", "Rock N' Me", "Fly Like An Eagle", "Swingtown", "Jungle Love" and the world-wide smash, "Abracadabra" has been at it again. This time he gives us the happy overtones of another smooth single—perfect for AOR! Steve knows what we like and "Wide River" is it—already! Last week's 30 adds came before the official release date and include calls like WRIF, KYYS, WOVE, KBCO and more. Miller's usual smooth, layered vocals are present, wrapped in sound from 4 different guitars, (12 string baritone, mandolin, acoustic and electric six strings) all on one catchy song!

Don't be left out and feel really stupid when you add this after the fact. Any 18-24 within spitting distance of your fine transmitter will gravitate to your station and then actively seek out an Arbitron diary holder and force them to write down your calls upon hearing this fine song.

The group came to town for a show recently that we sponsored, but first stopped by KIOT for an interview. Talk about your warm, friendly and modest alternative band- types!! Sun 60 impressed the entire staff oan Jones was fighting some kind of flu and was concerned about her voice, but no one jcould tell the difference with the kind of performance Jones, David Russo and the band put on. On air personality Janet Harris put it succinctly, "Joan Jones has the purest voice and clearest eyes in rock. Any girl who wears velvet hot pants and combat boots is okay in my book." "I've been a big fan of these guys since they came out with their first CD," says Sibyl Nedelka, Promotions Director at KIOT. "I pushed the MD at the time to take a listen, and we've been playing them ever since. Sun 60 is the Lulu made a surprise appearance on MTV's Unplugged with Soul Asylum, type of band that generates the kind of phones we look for. Everybody and performed a sofflui rendition o' "To Sir With Love" with the band. wants to know who they are. They are one of the best bands that I have seen live in awhile... new, fresh and something to watch. Anyone who can wail on a trumpet the way Joan Jones does, deserves to be heard."

Let's go back to the band. It's a little different than the first line up? 8111: Yes. The live line up is different than the album. Billy Holmes, the mandolin player, left the band. He promised that he would make the record and help me with the arranging, but at some point in time, he wanted to get back in school. He basically jumped ship about seven months ago, but it was an amiable parting. He was replaced by a guy named Newt Carter who worked with Murray Attaway. Newton's guitar style is more like Richard Thompson or Keith Richards — very melodic and brief in his statement but real effective. So, it's a much bigger guitar sound and the traditional elements are kind of on the wave at this point Really, the record was done by Billy and myself, then Travis McNabb played on about half of it.

Lw Tw Artist Track lotsam & Jetsam, "Swatting At immumuniammummungu Flies", MCA It's been a little while since Fanyone's probably worked you on Flotsam & um Rdi/ Jetsam. Mostly because the band have already been privy to enormous success in both the metal 4 4 T m and AOR/COR sectors with "Wading Through The Darkness" and "Never To Reveal" before it. And Os while CORockers were jamming on that song, metal stations have been busy pounding the hell outta "Swatting At Flies" (which has, in essence, helped prolong the band's life on the metal charts, An h where they are currently at #22). So guess what folks, it's your turn to get back into the picture. Coming right at you is the crash and crunch of "Swatting At Flies". Faster, harder, and yet, still catchier than most of the A metal tracks you've probably played before, it's also a great attitude cut. D 12 Queensr che 'Real World" The song is definitely guitar driven, but the vocals of Eric A.K. are the 5 13 LennvKravilz ."Are You Gonna Go Mv Way" obvious spotlight. It shouldn't really take much to convince you all to jump right on this one, since we already know that you like the band. And, we already know you've had great success with them, and we are well aware that your listeners feel the same. Instant? You betcha. "Swatting At Flies" is a very natural reaction.

"After This Time Is Gone

all

from EL MOODIO ATLANTIC -Su- THE HARP REPORT JUNE 4,1993 ¿UAW L-T-E R NJ A.-1- 1 E VI I If III

venth Dream Day, "After This Time Is Gone," Atlantic The quintessential American band, Eleventh Dream Day's songs are so full of warmth and stripped of all pretensions that you kinda get a feeling not unlilke standing in a Midwestern farmhouse on an August noon. The second single off of El Moodio (one of the year's top releases in our book), this one spotlights the vocal interplay between Rick Rizzo and Janet Beveridge Bean that is the highlight of the band. A beautifully structured song, Bean calls it "just a love song to Rick." Early on the track is WDST, whose Jeanne Atwood says, "That's the track we picked and played from the start. It's a great song - we wouldn't have dreamed of playing any other cut."

Pl Harvey, "Dry," Island Polly Jean and the crew's second single off of Rid of Me gives us a further glimpse into the songwriting abilities of this immense talent. PJ's wailing, amazingly expressive vocals fully embody the con- cepts of truth and honesty in her music. Much different from the stressed-out "50 Ft Oueenie," "Dry" shows a much more subdued side to the band that might surprise your listeners (or at least those who didn't already buy the album after reading all the incredible press the band has gotten). The chord progression is slow and deliber- ate, and the song's pauses and empty spaces give it a personality uniquely its own, uniquely PJ. WFNX is already on as an early believer.

A-Ha, "Dark Is The Night," Warner Brothers By now, you've probably listened to the "Mystery Artist" cassette and you have to admit, when you listened to it, you were impressed and couldn't wait to find out who the band was. Then you found out it was A-Ha and you may have been slightly taken aback — A-Ha? Yeah, A-Ha has revamped their sound — no more of the cheeky little synth stuff and more reliance on the strength of Morten Harket's vocals and Pal Waaktaar's guitar for a more mature sound that leans towards an INXS and Simple Minds hybrid. That's not to say the keyboards have been sacked — they're just more understated and accompany rather than overtake the strength of Harket's vocals. KRZO's Max Volume sums it up best, "It's a departure from 'Take On Me' and gives the band a whole new perspective in the modern world." Hey, we agree wholeheartedly — this is definitely a positive change! We also agree wholeheartedly with Paul V. that Memorial Beach will be the album to take A-Ha to the top!

The Beloved, "Celebrate Your Life," Atlantic This track exhibits more of the same subtle, erotic dancehouse vibe that we felt in "Sweet Harmony," a song that was a mainstay on alternative playlists for quite some time. A commentary on the loss of the optimism that was present worldwide a couple of years back, "Celebrate Your Life" is an affirming song, emphasizing the merits of idealism. KKDJ's Sat Bisla says, "First week top 5 phones — In these days of war and turmoil there is not much to celebrate, so why not celebrate your life and celebrate great phone reaction from your listeners?" Why not? Well, we're all gonna die sometime, and is anything really that important anyway? Pass the half-empty glass of water, please.

Slaughterhouse 5, "Sometimes So Close," IRS This Buzzcocky, Beatley band from northern England possesses a sprightly pop feel that is bright, fresh and invigorating. With a decidedly old school DIY ethic, the band relies on bare bones minimalism to craft catchy, melodious pop tunes. "Sometimes So Close" is a bouncy, uplifting song, refreshingly simple and full of charm. Davy Lawrence's coy vocals and the basement-jam sound of the rest of the band make the song instantly likeable. Be on the lookout for the band in your neck of the woods, as they embark Of ,.. on their first ever American tour this summer.

Flaming Lips, "Turn it On," Warner Brothers After what seems like an extremely short break, the Lips are back with their seventh album, Transmissions From the Satellite Heart. This is a new incarnation of the Lips, with Ronald Jones and Steven Drozd (on guitar and drums respectively) joining the band's founders, Wayne Coyne and Micheal lvins. The first single is much more focused than some of the Lips' earlier material. The song, the band's ode to cable fl/, features tight production and a rolling, spirited melody. The band, fresh off their support slot with Porno for Pyros, is all set to hit the road with Butthole Surfers/Stone Temple Pilots.

tilYSTE 7- C Nr Mystery Machine, "Broken," IRS This extraordinarily young band (all 21 and under) from Chilliwack, British é - Columbia is remarkably mature when it comes to playing. Their debut album, Glazed, features crisp guitar work and beautifully psychedelic song arrangements. The first single is an energetic, well structured track that captures the exuberance of youth and the excitement (frustration) present in the budding stages of a relationship. Their live show is also something to definitely check out, as it has garnered much attention and enabled them to open for the likes of Pearl Jam and Buffalo Tom. (Starting next week - Chilliwack trivia.)

THE HARD REPORT JUNE 4,1993 B LJ Z ZI NI"

Rocking our world here at the HardHouse is the Urge Overkill record (on orange vinyl) that we got in last week. Been sitting with the advance for a couple of weeks now, and we haven't been able to take it out of the player. Big, big things to come from the band, just you wait. Cobain & Co. watch out...

Also very cool is the new single from Lisa Germano, You Make Me Want To Wear Dresses," off her upcoming album, Happiness. The track has a real Celtic sound, with weaving violins and a lively tempo. Germano 's playful vocal style is reminiscent of Nico (without all the morbidity), and her confessional lyrics, meshed with the bright tonality of the track, give the song a warm, human feel.

Those of you familiar with New Zealand's Bailler Space already know the brand of lushly textured, feedback driven music they are capable of producing. Formed from the remnants of the Gordons and Clean, Bailter Space is a trio which takes the word "atmospheric" to new heights. Robot World (Matador), their third full-length release, is an overwhelming record; it's dark and resonant, a huge, flowing waterfall of sound. The controlled chaos in their music is handled with masterful precision, and the majestic depth of each song will leave you and your listeners devastated. Check out "Morning," "Begin," "Make," and the title track.

In the era in which jazz and hip-hop have truly fused and resulted in much commercial success, there finally is an album that features artists rapping over live, unsampled jazz. Jazzmatazz Volume I - An Experimental Fusion of Hip-hop and Jazz is designed both to please jazz purists and to maintain a street credibility in representing the hard-core rap crowd. Guru, the album's main rapper and producer, has always been in search of "an alternative to James Brown samples" and put together an all-star cast of musicians, including Branford Marsalis, N'dea Davenport, and Courtney Pine. This is the real deal, folks; a well produced, soulful combination of the two styles of music that will undoubtedly have mass appeal.

Be on the lookout for a CD reissue of Burning Blue Soul (4AD), an album that was released as Matt Johnson's debut solo effort but is widely regarded as being The The 's first album. The record serves as one of the early forums for Johnson's creativity, and was one of the first ever to feature the use of drum loops and samplings. Put some cuts on your specialty shows and/or library rotation and make your listeners aware that it's finally out on CD.

You should've already received W.A.R.?'s latest release from CYGOMOTOGOAI They're a band immersed in deep, dark psychedelic overtones that just screams of NYC. The four tracks on the EP have a loose, spontaneous feel to them, and a resoundingly live sound. The tracks are jam-intensive and on the long side, leaving plenty of room for the musicians to rage.

Always considered a guitar player's guitar player, Dick Dale has been credited with inventing surf music, and influencing hoards of musicians. Some of Dale's killer signature guitar work can be found on Tribal Thunder (High Tone), an album of 12 instrumentals that transcend any "surf" label and ven- ture into the areas of flamenco, traditional blues, and Middle Eastern music, all played on his Strat (of which a Dick Dale Custom model is in production) with a twang uniquely his own. Progressive, mind expanding music from a true living legend. Just ask Thurston.

orbid Angel, 3 Song Sampler, Giant... The name automatically conjures up a variety of reactions. For suit and ties, it generally means a scary business prospect (though this is the first strictly death metal album released on a major Mlabel), for the moral majority it means... well, Satan. For Earache records (who released the band's first two albums — "Altars Of Madness" and "Blessed Are The Sick") the band are probably a source of great pride, and for death metal fans it means, time to salivate. One of the better known and more controversial bands within the genre (along with Deicide and Death), Morbid Angel have been purging out brutally consistent works of evil since 1989. Often coupled with images of the devil, dark magic and brutality, the band, (lead growler, David Vincent in particular) are very worldly in their knowledge of such things and extremely well spoken (which tends to throw off many of their critics). He and bandmates Trey Azagthoth (1yricisVguitariseeyboards) and Pete Sandoval (drums), rip out songs that challenge the ear musically (high flighty leads, thundering drums and frantic bass pulses), and create tension and intrigue lyrically. What most of you should now have in your "possession" is the CD pro containing three tracks from the forthcoming "Covenant" album (produced by Flemming Rasmussen of Metallica fame). "Rapture", "Sworn To The Black" and "Pain Divine" are only slightly less demonic than you might assume (the vocals are hellbound), but just as devastatingly heavy. Fans will delight in them, and the full crushing album which is due out later this month (it'll make your head spin). A few adds snuck in early (WEOS, WSMU, WVBR and WVCR), but we're expecting a slew more next is/i.

roen Jelly, "Electric Harley House (Of Love)", Zoo.. Vr0000m!! Vr0000m!! Yes, it's Green Jelly screaming back onto the scene from their "Electric Harley House Of Love". The band has been shouting their two-word motto, "We suck!", Gsince the release of their debut LP, "Cereal Killer" — but audiences seem to feel quite the opposite about these gruesome, hea vy metal gagsters. Let me spell it cut for you — Green Jelly's long form video = GOLD, "Cereal Killer" LP = GOLD, "3 Little Pigs" single = GOLD rd "3 Little Pigs" video = GOLD. Unbelievable!! Especially since their destiny is to become known as the "Worlds Worst Band". Well, sit back and grab on tight because it's time for the boys to take you on a wild ride with their 2nd single, "Electric Harley House (Of Love)" (complete with rip-off "Enter Sandman" riff at the end). Sure, they're gross, loud and obnoxious, but it's working for them! Whatever you wanna call 'em, it can't be denied these guys know how to spread it on thick and win over fans. Try it, you too may really like it. (Jenni Glenn)

onster Magnet, "Face Down", ADM.... Monster Magnet are keeping their heads up with their second single from the excellent "Superjudge" album, "Face Down". A&M's psychedelic masters of heaviosity have been in the upper reach- Mes of the Hard Hitters chart for weeks on end now and they're still going strong. Hailing from our stomping grounds, the one and only beautiful Garden State, Monster Magnet have been crushing audiences since their inception back in 1989. Four years down the line, a couple 7"s, EP and tours (not to mention their remarkable Caroline debut, 'Spine Of God", which garnered big time major label attention) tucked under their belts, the boys are back once again and in your "face" in a big way. "Face Down" is a heavy, guitar-driven, succulent dish that deserves to be served up while it's still piping hot — that's now people. Hint, hint. Make sure you don't forget to add this one.
