³¼MUSIC IN 1993¼³


¹
In this article we will revieal most of
titles  on  the  rockscene that will be
out,  during  the  spring 1993.  Except
for  ,the quite few big names actually,
who  will  release something, there are
also alot of people and groups that you
thought   was  out  in  dark  that  now
returns.   That  goes for Taylor Daine,
Big Country, Duran Duran, Runrig, James
Brown,  The  The,  Aha,  Donald  Fagan,
Depeche  Mode,  Saga,  Robert Plant and
Bee  Gees.   The first record this year
should  be  Genesis   ²Live   Volume  2¹,
which  already  should be out.  It's of
course  an  album  containing the bands
old   classic  songs.   The  first  big
release  of the year takes place on the
26.   of January, where Elvis Costello,
who  2 years ago was close on his final
commercial brak through with his single
'The Other Side Of Summer and the album
'The  Mighty  Rose'.   Now he is on the
other  hand  on  a whole new trail with
the  classical The Brodsky Quartet, who
take  part  on  ²The Juliet Letters¹.  To
keep    the    cold   away   from   the
loudspeakers in January, we will by the
way  get the bluesmaster John Campbells
tremendous    second   record   ²Howling
Mercy¹  on   the 20.  A week before will
Beloved   released   their  ²Counscious¹.
Dave Baerwald, with the fine songs, are
ready  with  ²Songs  From  The Mirror¹ on
the  21.   and on the same day there is
yet a comeback from Saga  with ²Security
Of Illusions¹.  In the end of the  month
will   the   soft  english  hardrockers
Little  Angels  release ²Jam¹  like  Pere
Ubu  releases  ²Story  Of  My  Life¹.  At
the same time should the british singer
Jesus  Jones  be   ready  with  ²Pervers
like  Seans  brother, Michael Penn, who
is  a  great  songwriter,  releases his
second  album  called  ²Free  For  All¹.
Dinosaur  Jr.   kicks  ass   with ²Where
You've  Been¹,  Marc  Almond  releases a
double  live-album  with   the title ²12
Years Of Tears¹ and  Dionne Warwick will
be  out with ²Friends Can  Be  Lovers¹ in
the  end  of January.  February will be
lead  by Paul McCartney, who, while the
rumours  about a reunion of The Beatles
are  circulating  wilder and wilder, is
releasing  the  album ²Off  The  Ground¹.
The  month  second  major  record  will
probably   be   Mick   Jagger's   third
solo-album ²Wandering Spirit¹,  which  is
produced by the heavy-master Rick Rubin
and  has  even  been liked by colleague
Keith  Richards.  The record will be in
the streets in the middle of the month,
which  are  ended by Sting's new record
²Ten  Sumaries¹,  which  should   be  far
more  heading  for  hits  than his last
²Nothing  Like  The  Sun¹.  And  then  we
will  all clap our hands together.  The
month  will  furthermore  give  us  the
latest  from  Ice-T,  the  rapper, with
²Homeinvasion¹,  the  third record from
Licing  Colour  with  the  title ²Stain¹,
Deacon   Blue,  Cindy  Lauper  and  the
british  hope  Suede, double live-album
from  Van Halen; ²Live Right  Here  Right
Now¹.   Also  The Cult are ready with a
live  album  from  The Marque in London
with  the  title  ²Pure  Cult¹   and  the
older  boys in Emerson, Lake and Palmer
will  also do a live-album.  Giant Sand
will  release ²Center  Of  The Universe¹,
while   Poison   returns   with  a  new
guitar-player  and  the   album  ²Native
Tongue¹.   Also  Daryl  Hall rises again
together  with Boney M, who will try to
do    the   same   as   ABBA   with   a
Gold-compilation, but nevertheless, the
comeback of the spring must go to Duran
Duran,  who  returns with an album with
the  same  name  as  the  group itself.
Fianlly  we'll get new stuff from James
Brown,  Bruce  Hornsby and the returned
greman  heavyban  Accept.  In March the
big  release  is the long awaited album
from  Aerosmith  called  ²Get   A  Grip¹,
which  shall  follow  up  the fantastic
²Pump¹  from  1989.  Brian  Ferry's  long
awaited  album  will   be  called ²Taxi¹.
On  the other hand there is nothing new
here  as Ferry has chosen an album with
cover-songs  in  order to get more time
to  continue  his  work  with his still
awaited  new  record.  Big Country will
try  again  in March like Runrig, World
Party,    australian    Diesel,   irish
Hothouse  Flowers,  Oletta  Adams, Dire
Straits with a live-album, The Mission,
New   Order,   Robert   Plant  and  the
satanian    speed-devils   in   Slayer.
Depeche  Mode  has changed to guitar on
²Somgs  Of Faith And Devotion¹  which  is
out on the 27.  of March.  Aha will try
in  the  same  month,  like the earlier
Motley Crue Singer Vince Neil, who make
his solo-debut.  Finally the month will
probably  also  give  news  from Daniel
Lanois.  During April-May we should get
records   with   Phil   Collins,  Janet
Jackson,  UB40,  OMD, Meat Loaf, who in
company  with Jim Steinman is recording
²Bat   Out   Of   Hell   Part   Two¹,   a
live-album  from  Gary  Moore,  Army Of
Lovers,  who like the idols in Abba now
consists  of  two  men  and  two women,
Right  Said Fred, Tears For Fears, Yes,
Billy   Ray  Cyrus,  Texas,  Bee  Gees,
Kentucky   headhunters,   David  Bowie,
Tomas  Ledin, Nirvana, Iggy Pop, Curtis
Stigers,  Deep  Purple, ZZ Top, Enuff Z
Nuff,  Divin  N Cryin, Anders Glenmark,
Paul   Young,  Cliff  Richard,  Terence
Trent   D'Arby,  Allison  Moyet,  Alice
Cooper,   Beverly  Craven  and  Mr.Big.
