New Madonna release

Immaculate Collection, Madonna's upcoming greatest
hits package, will be recorded with "QSound," a new process
that "transfers the 3-D effect to audio." The new technique
will supposedly be audible to anyone listening to a stereo
radio broadcast or anyone using conventional home recording
equipment. Immaculate Collection will include 15 past hits
and two new tracks, including "Justify My Love," which
was co-written by Lenny Kravitz. The package will be
released on Nov. 13.
• Outside of the studio, Madonna has been taking flak for
a public service announcement she recorded to promote
voting. In the spot, the military-uniformed singer raps
"Martin Luther, Malcolm X, freedom of speech is better
than sex."
• Guitar God Eric Clapton, who penned the rock
staple "Layla" in an attempt to woo George Harrison's
wife, has fallen in love again. Slowhand has announced
plans to wed a 24-year-old Argentine woman he met in a
restaurant two weeks ago.
• George Michael is planning a seven-city benefit
tour which will kick off Feb. 6 in Toronto. Tickets prices
for the tour, which benefits the United Negro College Fund
and the San Fransisco AIDS Foundation, start at $5O.
• A Los Angeles judge recently dismissed a $45 million
Liner Notes
lawsuit by two screenwriters who claimed actor
Christopher Reeve stole their idea for the film
Superman IV. Why on earth would anyone want to take
responsibility for that piece of sequal trash?
• CBS Records will change its name to Sony
Music Entertainment effective Jan. 1, 1991. The
change stems from Sony's 1988 purchase of the record label.
Sony, which also recently purchased the EMI label, has
vowed to leave CBS label names Columbia and Epic
unchanged.
• Members of the Stone Roses have been fined £3OOO
each for damages to the offices of their former label FM
Revolver. According to label representatives, the band
members may also be facing a £3 million libel suit.
• Former Milli Vanilli manager Todd Headlee told
reporters last week that he was ready to expose facts proving
that the band was part of the music industry's "biggest snow
job." Let me guess ... maybe the guys really lip-synch their
concerts instead of singing their two hits live.
• Billy Joel, Quincy Jones, Aretha Franklin and
Johnny Cash will receive 1990 Grammy Legends awards,
which will be presented in New York on Dec. 5.
• Robert Palmer teamed up with members of ÜB4O
to record a cover of Bob Dylan's "I'll Be Your Baby
Tonight." The track will appear on Palmer's forthcoming
release Don't Explain, which hits stores Nov. 5.

Colleges protest Playboy
Student leaders want lens caps, clothing left on
(CPS) - Claiming it's bowing
to student pressure, Playboy
magazine has started asking
students at women's colleges to
pose in various states of undress
for a spring pictorial.
The magazine, which often
trolls campuses for willing
models, decided to recruit at
women's colleges this year in
response to alleged requests from
students who felt "left out"
because Playboy had never hired
women from their schools, said
Elizabeth Norris, a Playboy
spokeswomen.
Norris, however, would not
name the people who made the
unusual requests.
She said she did not know if
the students who called were male
or female.
Regardless of who called,
Playboy editors also wanted to
investigate the "myth" that
students at women's colleges are
all feminists with short hair,
Non - is added.
"The response has been
fabulous," Norris said.
Some women's college
students have had a hard time
believing her.

"The attitude here is varrying
degrees of disapproval," said
Melissa Dile, president of the
Associated Students of Mills
College, a women's college in
Oakland, Calif.
"They're trying to capitalize
on the publicity of last spring"
when Mills students protested to
keep administrators from
admitting men to college, Dile
maintained.
In mid-October, Playboy sent
a crew to Boston for a week of
photographing students and
alumni at schools that are all
female or have recently gone coed
including Elms, Emmanuel,
Mount Holyoke, Pine Manor,
Regis, Simmons, Smith,
Wellesley, Wheaton and
Wheelock colleges.
"I think it's important that the
public knows that we (students at
Mount Holyoke) don't want to be
represented like this," said
Heather Morrill, a Mount
Holyoke senior who helped plan
an anti-Playboy petition drive and
a picketing of Playboy's Chicago
offices.
Norris said that, despite the
"fabulous" response, campus

protests have "scared" some
students into not keeping
appointments for interviews they
had made with Playboy.
"It's not fair that they're (the
protesting students) not giving
their sisters the freedom to do
what they want," Norris said.
Tess Resman, vice president
of the Student Goivernment
Association at Smith College,
said students there "believe every
woman has the right to do what
she wants to do with her own
body."
However, she said, they object
to having Smith's name attached
to a playmate.
"'think it will be hard" for a
student from Mount Holyoke to
pose for Playboy, Merrill added.
"I know many students would
have a difficult time
understanding why she would do
something like that."
Playboy claims that it already
has convinced one women':
college alumna, a 1986 graduate
of Mills named Heidi Ellis, to
pose.
Dik said she and other Mills
students cannot find any mention
of Ellis in school records.
