AN ANTIPIRACY PROJECT OF THE RECORDING INDUSTRYASSOCIATION OF AMERICA (RIAA) AND THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF RECORDINGMERCHANDISERS (NARM) Record World The Viewpoints of the Industry e A MUSE Forum:The Rebirth of Activism By JOSEPH IANELLO Jackson was getting a little tired of doing little benefits so he asked my help so we could get into bigger halls. So in January oflast year, we did three anti -nuke benefits to help stop Diablo Canyonin Cali- fornia and help fund the anti -nuke movement there. We raised about $104 thousand in three concerts in southern California.It went so successfully and Jackson and I came off so well-even though I'd

know him for years I never played with him-that he asked me to

become involved. So I attended several board meetings of the then MUSE boatd of directors and I was so involved and so committed that they asked me to join the board of MUSE. That was about March of last year. RW: Were any experiences you had in other movements valuable for your work with the anti -nuke movement and what similarities or comparisons might you make between today's protests and those of a decade ago?

Nash: I find that there are a lot of incredible similarities. The level of how the people are upset about this and the war are very similar. It's hard to get the general public off their ass and the last time they really got off their ass in a mass way was the march on Washington in the early seventies that ended up in persuading Congress to stop the war. I found an incredible similarity between the feeling I got standing onstage at Woodstock and realizing for the first time that the youth of this country and the world do have a phenomenally large, powerful From left: Graham Nash, Bonnie Roitt, John Hall voice if they can only get their shit together.

Cherry's vocal style is not greatly distinctive, but in "Fire" she has a fabulous hook to work with and a surging Euro-flavored rhythm track full of synthesizer effects. (More might have been made of the break, though). Also: "I Just Can't Shake the Feeling," (5:35), a midtempo Eli cut of classic Philly plus percussion,and the easy- going "I'm Always Ready" (4:56), a sweet, romantic piece that receives tl Cherry's best vocal work on the album.
