www.americanradiohistory.com In our most jaded moments, sometimes we espy a new musical face and immediately suspect him or her as being just another marketing project with little natural talent and lots of behind -the -scenes coaching. Nevil's press bio reveals just the opposite. Behind his boyish demeanor is a young /session guitarist who has also dabbled with production duties for Richard Perry. His credible writing contributions include songs like "Contact" and "Just A Little Closer" by the Pointer Sisters, "Under The Influence" by Vanity and "Someone" by El DeBarge. Most recently Robbie has completed writing and production collaborations with Alison Moyet and Maurice White. Regarding music and image, Nevil seems fascinated with elements of irony. His pop music is decidedly R &B flavored, yet his physical appearance suggests a more rock n roll point of view. We discussed this question of image along with the plight of being a new artist in the late '80s, i.e. finding the right producers and making his transition from professional songwriter to successful solo artist. There's more to Robbie Nevil than meets the eye and ear. I,

Chuck is well known as one of the founders of Top 40 and a constant innovator in the field of TV promotional campaigns for radio. One of the seminar's most touching moments came when Leo Rosenburg, 91, who literally launched the field of radio promotion while announcing the 1920 Harding -Cox presidential election results, was inducted into BPME's Promotion Hall of Fame. Comedian Jay Lenno passed out the 123 Gold Medallions to winners from both radio and TV. Among the multiple radio winners were KSL-Salt Lake City, KGON -Portland and 4KQ-Brisbane, Australia.

models. Never mind the flagrant stuff on non -FCC-governed cable, where bizarre witchery, bloody violence, indiscriminate sexual activity and foul language are the order of the day -and night -every day and night. It goes on and on, and the PMRC Random are...is ?...silent. We've been told over and over again that we don't recognize the "new technology" because we haven't transferred our LP collection to CD, and that we've obviously never heard just how crisp a synthesizer can sound. We're not a total dinosaur, yet we can't figure out how to go about this. We have many thousands of LPs with liner notes we can read without the aid of a magnifying glass. We like to finger these albums, play with them, caress Notes from them, look at them and sometimes even listen to them. Not only that, but our shelves have been built to accommodate their size, and MOST important, we can't imagine how the Sgt. Pepper LP which we heard this morning (for the first time in years), which was recorded in (get this) FOUR TRACK, could sound any crisper. This could be due to failing hearing, but we doubt it. We like our LPs, won't live long enough to hear them all and just haven't got time to switch them over to crisper sound. Rock critic Todd Everett of Hollywood the LA Herald Examiner, a much hipper person than us, agrees. By the way, we have broken down and CD is now in our system because a lot of product is only shipped to us in that form. It DOES sound good, but dammit, "Sympathy For The Devil" and "Light My Fire" are not going to sound any crisper, whether you like it or not. Vine Recent Hollywood columns have inspired you to respond with vitriolic correspondence. In the unenthusiastic interest of fairness, we offer a sampling: We think its time for the PMRC to expand its activities and start looking into the world outside the record business. Our Dear Hollywood Column: considered opinion is that the rest of society is a lot more risque The cavalier tone in your piece about my visit to the States was than Ozzy Osbourne and Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds (which, just a bit too cavalier for me and the Cardinals (never mind the by the way, the PMRC never mentioned in this, the 20th Brewers and the Orioles). Clearly my U.S. rep, Father Guido anniversary of Sgt. Pepper). Sarducci, didn't explain to you that there is a dignity in my office Examples: Barbara Wawa asked Donna Rice on national which must be respected.
