Huey big hit in
"Small World"
by Kevin Trenney
Collegian Staff Writer
The musical group Chicago
was once called the Chicago
Transit Authority. George
Thorougood's band used to have
Deleware in its name. Did you
know that Huey Lewis and The
News used to be called Huey
Lewis and The American Express.
This year, Huey and the boys are
celebrating their tenth anniversary.
Their new album entitled "Small
World" tells me that they’ll
probably be around for a little
longer.
This group from Mill Valley
California has been criticized for
producing repetitive albums which
tend to sound exactly alike. This
may be true of the bands first three
albums; "Huey Lewis and The
News", "Picture This", and
"Sports".
The band’s fourth album
seemed to move away from the
ao TO THE nOVTES

usual format only slightly. "Small
World” is, however, truly
something different
This effort shows reggae
influence on songs like Perfect
World and Old Antonne's (Bruce
Hornsby plays accordian on this
piece). Huey whips out his
harmonica for the tune Bobo
Tempo, which has a bluesy sound.
Jazz, however, seems to permeate
the entire album. The saxophone
solo of Stan Getz (a jazz artist) on
the song "Small World" and the
seemingly constant presence of the
Tower of Power Homs would
illustrate this.
This album is not typical
Huey. That doesn’t mean that it is
bad. I am a big Huey fan who
likes this album better than the
band's previous releases.
If you’re a Huey fan buy it! If
you’re not a Huey fan buy it
anyway, you may be surprised!
Aren’t you glad that they
changed their name?

Breathe Some of This
by Kevin Trenney
Collegian Staff Writer
Are you tired of all the plastic
pop and light metal trash which
pollute the air-waves? Are you
looking for something better?
Music with texture maybe? Then I
have the album for you! It's called
"All That Jazz" and it’s the first
album by the British band Breathe.
This pop offering is one which
truly seems to have substance. As
its title indicates the album
contains a lot of jazz idions and
references. The use of horns as
featured instruments and accents for
certain songs is a refreshing change
from the synth everything and one
chord quitar sound produced by
most pop artists.
"All That Jazz" is a rather
mellow album which contains a
number of quality ballads including
"Hands to Heaven" the bands second
release and the more recent hit

Modern Horror
Films Too Graphic
By Paul Polasik
Collegian Staff Writer
What is it about horror movies
that make people go to see them?
I recently went to a new thriller
called "Childs Play," and asked
some people what made them come
to this type of movie. The first two
people I talked to said they came
"to get scared to death".
The question is why? Why are
we so fascinated with charecters like
Jason and Freddy Kruger?
The horror movie is not
something new. Movies like
"Frankenstien, Dracular," and "The
Phantom of the Opera," have been
scaring people for 50 years now,
and with the success of "Friday the
13th, Holloween,” and "Nightmare
on Elm Street," it shows that
America is basically a violent
group of people.
There are some terrible side
"How Can I Fall".
"Jonah", the band’s first release,
which didn't see much airplay is up
beat and jazzier than the singles
which have followed it. I personally
feel that it is the best song on the
album. The title track, " All that
Jazz”, and "Monday Morning
Blues" are also fairly up-beat
considering the album’s overall
tone.
The vocals of David Glasper and
the work of the band's other
members; Marcus Lillington-
Guitars, lan Spice-Drums, and
Michael Delahunty-Bass; along
with the efforts of additional
musicians blend to produce a high
quality of sound. All that jazz is an
album which took Breathe a bit
over two years to complete. The
effort seems to have paid off for
this band. I recommend this album
for pop fans who like a little jazz
and to jazz fans who like a little
pop in their musical diets.
effects to horror movies though.
Recently, on HBO's "America
Undercover,” a 13 yr. old kid who
was really into the Friday the 13th
series killed his best friends mother.
The reason he gave for doing it was
that he thought he was Jason and
that he was indestructable.
I must admit, I like horror
movies, but if we're going to have
incidents like this then we should
seriously define what is scary. Does
Jason really have to kill everyone
with pitchforks or axes? Does
Freddy really have to slash everyone
into little pieces? They didn’t use to
do it that way, and the movies were
just as scary.
This world is a violent enough
place as it is. We don't need another
reason for people to go out and kill
each other. So, in my opinion,
bring back Dracula and Frakenstein.
They were scary enough, and they
didn't put any wierd ideas into kids
heads.
Rape cont. from pg. 2
Two women were assaulted in
separate incidents in September near
the campus of Plymouth State
College in New Hampshire. Baylor
and Yale university students also
have reported near-campus assaults
so far this school year.
In early October, the Santa
Monica (Cal.) Hospital Rape
Treatment Center released a report
estimating that, nationwide, only
one of ten campus sexual are ever
reported to authorities.
