14—The Daily Collegian Friday, Oct. 31, 1980 Costello still Taking Liberties' with rock “Taking Liberties,” Elvis Costello, Col umbia Records, #JC 3G839 By JON BRIAN PETERSON Daily Collegian Staff Writer With “Taking Liberties,” Elvis Costello and The Attractions have done it again! Combining rock ’n’ roll basics of the 1950 s with straight pop of the ’6os, in spired psychedelia with touches of rock theatrics of the ’7os, the new Elvis has created the best marriage of the decades gone by since Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band first tore up the East Coast. The new Costello LP is not really new. It is a compilation of tracks released on ly in England, “B” sides to American 45s and British EPs, unreleased demo masters produced by Costello, and other rare collectibles. “Taking Liberties” is aptly titled, since previous attempts by other rock giants has resulted in critical dismay or commercial failure. “Metamorphos,” The Rolling Stones' album of tracks from the past was deservingly a * • * * * * CLASSIFIED ADVERTISING INFORMATION Ads can be placed in person at our office, Monday through Friday 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., or be mailed to Room 126 Carnegie Building (make checks payable to: The Daily Collegian).

College by the College Diner 237-4253 monumental flop while The Who’s “Odds And Sods,” very much a memorable an thology, fell short of the public’s expec tations being released after their ’73 masterpiece, “Quadrophenia.” Much to Costello’s credit, he has ig nored the past history of “collectible” albums falling flat with the release of “Taking Liberties” in the States. And in doing so, he has successfully surfaced on top of the music scene by risking to walk the fringe of rock’s outer limits. Kicking off with the powerful “Clean- Money,” this record belts you with an emotional jab to the jaw and continues to pound you for the next 19 tracks. In these post-Knack days of hyper-inflated list prices, it’s incredible that this record and “Get Happy,” Costello’s last album, boast a previously unheard of line-up of 20 tunes apiece. Although most of the songs are typical fiery Costello rockers driven by Pete Thomas’ frantic beatings on the two and four, Steve Naive’s kaleidoscopic keyboards, and Bruce Thomas’ pujsating bass lines, not everything here ?■ Illustration by Scott Smith EFFICIENCY FURNISHED CONVIENTLY located - All utilities included available December 1, 1980 only $lBO.OO Call 237-6914 large 2 bdrm 2 bath furnished apartment.

With Costello, songs don’t need to be upbeat to be felt in the gut. Of the record’s two ballads, “Just A Memory” and “My Funny Valentine,” the later could be a perverted version of something from Frank Sinatra’s immor tal “Only the Lonely” album. The At traction’s backing track is just as haun ting as Nelson Riddle’s orchestration, and has enabled Costello to translate the crooner-styled songwriting of the ’4os in to a demented brand of torch songs for the ’Bos. And it is just this, The Attraction’s fierce backing combined with the masterful aural tapestry woven by pro ducer Nick Lowe, that compliments Costello’s • songwriting and singing perfectly. Costello’s vocal sneering com bined with a stinging wall of sound too complex to be punk, too classic to be con sidered New Wave, is what makes Costello the ingenious recording artist he is. Included on “Taking Liberties” are “Girls Talk” and “Talking In The Dark,” the two Costello-penned songs “The Ghost Writer,” by Philip Roth’ Fawcett Crest, $2.75, 222 pages. . By B. DRU LONG Daily Collegian Staff Writer If you don’t think you can relate to “The Ghost Writer” because the novel is by Philip Roth, a Jewish author, whose story is about Nathan Zuckerman, a Jewish writer, then you could be in for a nice surprise. Known for repeatedly injecting his stories' with Jewishness, Roth is also admired for his ability to create universality. “The Ghost Writer” gets beyond the surface appearance of a struggling Jewish writer and shows a struggling man caught between personal aspirations and family traditions. Zuckerman’s conflict becomes evident when his 1975 DODGE VAN good condition. Auto PS PB, cruise control, radio- 1 tape, very reliable.

Love,John ' ages, “Tiger” is a fascinating blend of fact and fiction. Kurten is among the world’s foremost paleontological ex perts, and has used a novel to put forth a truly intriguing hypothetical explana tion for one of the greatest puzzles of human evolution. Thirty-five thousand years ago there were two distinctly different species of human being Homo sapiens sapiens, who evolved into the present entity, and Homo sapiens neandertalensis, who disappeared rather quickly, in evolu tionary terms. Kurten’s book is a model put forth as a possible explanation for Neanderthal Man’s disappearance. But it is more than cleverly couched science fiction. The story deals with URTG's 'Sly Fox' is no swindle By P.J. PLATZ Daily Collegian Staff Writer There’s something about theatre that is . . . well, magic. First there’s all that preshow hubbub in the audience, then the hush as the houselights go down and the incidental music wafts through the house like a Broadway lullaby. Next, the stage lights come up, the actors appear, and . . . poof! Magic. That selfsame magic came vividly alive last night with the opening of the University Resident Theatre Company’s second production of the season, “Sly Fox,” directed by Eberle Thomas. Penned with seasoned wit by “M*A*S*H” ’s own Larry Gelbart as a modern counterpart to Ben Jonson’s “Volpone,” “Sly Fox” is a comedy of the best sort. Overflowing not only with laughs, chuckles and guffaws, it suc ceeds on a higher level as well: it’s a morality play. Ah, but we have no wagging fingers here. Instead we are admonished with a slight tickle in the ribcage, a friendly cuff to the shoulder, a gentle kick in the seat. “Sly Fox” is about greed, pure and, JOB HUNTING?

Tiger, a Homo sapiens sapiens or “Black” in Kurten’s novel whose pursuit of his father’s murderer leads him to associate with the “Whites” or Neanderthals. The White Neanderthals are seen by the Blacks as simian, dull and homely. By contrast, the Neanderthals view the Blacks as childlike, due to their relative ly neotenized faces and slighter builds. The sociological ramifications of a meeting and blending of two human groups leaves Kurten room for some of the most imaginative speculation ever to grace science fiction. From a literary point of view, Kurten’s characterizations are a little simplistic, his dialogues a little stilted. well, not quite all that simple. Foxwell J. Sly, devilishly played with appropriate raspy-throatedness by John Sterling Arnold, has lived a life of swindling people for all they are worth, and then some. Especially the ‘then somes.’ Now a chest groaning with gold sitting unobtrusively at the foot of his massive canopied bed he wants to create the biggest swindle of all times (sort of like “The Great Train Rob bery,” only this time there aren’t any trains). ' Sly is pretending he is on his deathbed; his every rattling, gasping breath seems to be his last. And, as most dying critters find encircling their final resting place, the vultures have appeared, waiting in silent anticipation to reap the spoils. There’s the crooked Lawyer Craven, performed with well-oiled snide by Rick Lyon; the weazy old miser, Jethro Crouch, who makes Scrooge look like the winner of the Philanthropist of the Year Award, which John Bayless played with such teeter-tottering steps that my every involuntary reflex cried out to grab him before he fell on his wizened face; the overambitious accountant, Abner ATTENTION: Walch lor loxy blonde with the dozen balloons Wish her a Happy Birthday.

Open Thmd&ym&htS* STARTS HALLOWEEN THURSDAY. 129 RACQUET wbeaver SHOP The story of the novel a murder righteously revenged is not com plicated.* What enriches the book so much and makes it unique is the wealth of detail Kurten has included. The world was a vastly different place 35,000 years ago, the wildlife and plant life were dif ferent, the Earth’s geography was different. And when the personal drama of “Tiger” ’s characters reads a little thin, it is this anthropological depth and detail that carries the reader’s interest. The result is a blend of science fiction, social commentary and lecture on evolution that combines the most interesting elements of all three. Truckle, played by a very funny William Johnson; and Miss Fancy, the overwork ed and underpaid (so she seems to think) local tart, a woman whom Billie Duncan took and sidled into as a sweet-talkin’ Belle, ready to have her chimes rung any ol’ time. And there’s only one person who knows Sly’s trick: Simon Able, whom Patrick Egan played with a lopsided smirk that not only reflected his character, but looked like a snake-in-the grass as well. All of these characters, plus a liberal handfull of others, popped out of the magician’s hat along with some other clever theatrical tricks, namely the fan tastic sets designed by William Barclay. And not only do we get to admire the beauty of the Far Eastern-influenced furnishings popular in San Fransisco a century ago, but we get to see just how they get on the stage in the first place. That’s half the fun. In these days of rapidly increasing in flation, it’s nice to know that there’s one show well worth your money. “Sly Fox” is no swindle.
