World Party celebrates
music of the 60's
by Gary L. Nolan
The Collegian
Due to the great fascination of
late with the era of the sixties,
many artists have tried their hand
at recreating that period's music.
Unfortunately, most have
turned to either retreads of the
style, or covers that do not match
the emotion of the original. It is
only with an adept musical ear
that the favorable sound can be
channeled and improved through
the eyes of the nineties. World
Party's recent album, Goodbye
Jumbo, clearly masters this art.
Images of The Rolling Stones
and Bob Dylan immediately come
to mind as frontman Karl
Wallinger borrows from his
sixties mentors.
Wallinger, former member of
the Irish band The Waterboys,
uses the name World Party as a
pseudonym for his one man

show. He writes, records and
produces the work himself, thugh
at the same time leaving the
studio door open for guests.
Fellow countrywoman Sinead
O'Connor lends backing vocals in
this release.
Goodbye Jumbo, the second
album by World Party, shows
musical growth since the first
release Private Revolution.
However critically acclaimed,
Wallinger's past works have not
received the commercial success
deserving of an artist of his
stature.
At the onset of the album,
Wallinger immediately sets the
stage for what is to come. The
first two tracks "Its Too Late,"
and the single "Way Down
Now," add the fresh air of the
nineties to the flavor of the
sixties era.
The lyrics borrow directly
from Bob Dylan, "And all the

times will keep on changing."
Wallinger later takes a chapter
from the Rolling Stones with a
familiar background chorus,
reminiscent of "Sympathy for the
Devil."
Wallinger also clearly masters
the sixties style guitar. It has a
blues influence, yet it keeps the
sixties heart; an art that has
certainly been lost in the glamour
rock world of today.
Wallinger meticulously avoids
the pitfall of sounding dated by
adding a violin to the release.
This mellow sound provides a
soft, sensitive edge. The edge
proves to multiply the meaning
of the lyrics, giving them a life
all their own.
One highlight is the current
single "Put the Message in the
Box." Its flowing sound was
showcased on MTV's Video
Music Awards this year, and is a
regular on the MTV playlist.
Though this release has many
artistic moments, it is not
without shortcomings. There is
some filler material, and times
when Wallinger loses touch with
his audience. These few moments
can be overlooked, however,
when compared with the strong
material in the rest of the album.
The climax of the album is
reached in the song "Sweet Soul
Dream". Wallinger maximizes
the background vocals of Sinead
O'Connor with a full sound. The
violin roams excellently through
the piece, as the lyrics grip the
emotions.
World Party, through the eyes
of Karl Wallinger, has yielded yet
another strong release. Hand in
hand the sixties and the nineties
seem meant for each other in
Wallinger's able hands. A talent
in any era, Wallinger and World
Party show inspiration through
imitation.

Colors brighten fall fashions
Tights, suede shoes will be popular accessories
by Bonnie Larsen
The Collegian
This year's Fall Fashions are
in, so make sure you know
what's hot. Lots of color seems
to be the craze, so remember
this while shopping for your
fall wardrobe.
Bright separates create the
outfits for this fall, and tights
are a necessity. Whether they are
wool, lace, spandex, or cotton,
tights add the finishing touches
to any outfit. You'll probably
spend around five to ten dollars
for a pair of leggings; they're
durable, and the investment is
worth it.
On the issue of shoes, suede
is the popular material this fall.
Although the cost may be a bit
steep, suede lasts if treated with
water rcpeliant. Expect to spend
around thirty dollars for a good
pair of fiats. Keep in mind,
class never goes out of style.
Over-the-knee boots are in this
season, and yes, the material is
suede.

To go along with the tights
and boots, of course, a mini
skirt. Lycra/cotton mini skirts
are devastating this year. If
you're not into the short and
skimpy, wear an above the knee
straight skirt. Canvas is popular
this season, and denim never
goes out of style.
Accessories really make or
break an outfit. Belts, scarves,
Fashion
earrings and bangles are nice
compliments to any ensemble.
Make sure you don't clutter your
outfit; accessories should accent
your clothes, not hide them.
This fall, coats are above the
waist, flared, and bright.
Hooded, quilted, and metallic
coats are smashing this season.
Fake fur is also a hot item.

Now, some of you are
probably upset with this new
line up for fall. Don't fret. The
neutrals never die, they just
change colors. Avocado is this
year's hottest neutral. The J.
Crew look hasn't left the
spotlight, it's just brightened a
bit.
As for men this fall, earthy
colors seem to dominate the
market. According to Ralph
Lauren, "The relaxed lodge
feeling...hand-knit cardigan
sweaters, plaid hunting
jackets..." seem to be the trend
this year. As far as the shoes
go, thick soled, earthy suedes
are in, and very expensive!
In looking at this year's
styles, there is something very
refreshing going on. But, keep
in mind, if it doesn't work for
you, don't do it. Just because
the designers say it's hot, don't
buy something that makes you
nervous. Be yourself.
Remember, your clothes don't
become you, you become your
clothes.
