And Twitty is just that Southern and comfortable. Typical country music, with typical arrange ments, typical lyrics and Twitty's typ ical vocal style. But that's the way country music is not here-today and-gone-tomorrow like the Top-40 bandwagon. Nope. This is steady, com fortable music about steady, comfort able things. Like women who marry for money, men and women with bro ken hearts and just about every other aspect of country life. Country stardom must be different from pop stardom; Nashville sure isn't LA. Twitty just hangs in there, doing his thing, probably with the best studio musicians he can buy. The cover shows this distinguished, good-looking country gentleman at his distin guished, good-looking country home, This isn't the cowboy hats, shotguns and 4x4's that seems to be many peo ple's stereotype of Southern or country music. The difference is recognizable in the titles: "Something Strange Got Into Her Last Night," "She Only Meant to. Use Him," and "The Boy Next Door." Not rowdy, but mellow easy-listening music. Set" yourself up with a bottle of Southern Comfort and a case of Blue Ribbon. "KIERAN KANE," KIERAN KANE, Elektra #EI-60004, Don't judge a book (album?) by its cover, I've heard somewhere. What was I to think when I saw this clear skinned, shaggy sandy-haired guy clad in work shirt and jeans sitting in a field of green grass? Kind of like Twitty's cover; you know what's inside. And here it is, Kane singing folky-country ish tunes with backup band. I prefer this type of music to have simple, acoustic arrangements, but Kane dis agrees. Certainly there's the obligato ry six-string, but there's a bunch of other filler back there too. Kane's songs certainly don't need it to make them work; most on this Ip are enjoya ble enough to stand on their own. I've often hoped that folk music will make a strong comeback, matching the popularity it received in the '6os (Peter, Paul & Mary, Mamas & Papas etc.) and this record may be a minor hint that things will tend that way. But probably not; only the country stations will take this up, its cover labling it appropriate. "TESTIMONY," FERRON, Philo Re cords #PH 1074. Well, maybe folk will never come back. Ferron is on the back, strum- ming guitar and clearly feeling every little lyric. But play the album, and the guitar is lost amid heavy instrumental arrangements, and her voice is at best bearable. I don't want to establish a reputation as a chauvanist pig, but this is one of these "songs by, for and about women" albums, I suppose; partly why I don't appreciate it, maybe. That, however, dosen't make her voice any better. The most it could do would be make the lyrics better for somebody who can appreciate those parts of life about which she sings. "0 Louise won't you please me now/ You bring me to my knees/ You only tease me now/ It seems you're always trying to show/ That you're unkind/ That you've got nothing for a heart/ And echoes in your mind." Well, that's fine, I guess. But it dosen't come off the grooves like it sits on the printed page. Now I really miss folk music. —by Stuart Austin "SLOW CHILDREN," SLOW CHIL DREN, Ensign, NXLI-8001. The L.A. band Slow Children, with its experimental vocal and guitar styles, has produced a debut 1p after finally shedding its unsuccessful rock 'n' roll backup band. When Slow Children first started out, the L.A. club scene wasn't working for them. They disbanded and group lead ers Pal Shazar and Andrew Chinich Slow Children Chinich get their ideas from everyday life or from far-out daydreams. ("Spring in Fialta" is about an island on the Adriatic Sea). Maybe it's a little bit of both. At any rate, "Spring in Fialta" and "Too Weak to Eat" are the most com mercially accessible cuts, and may give Slow Children a hit or two if the 1p gets any critical recognition. —by Christine Curcio =tit - we need fc , WOl,l know if y c v .re a certainly .
