Good old Smokey however has not only mantaned the tradtonal values of hs natural musc but contnued (somewhat drastcally t mght be argued) to be completely contemporary n the type of materal he chose to record and / or wrote hmself. 'Smokey's World' s a conglomerate complaton effort, markng the years between 1972 and 1977, successfully pckng up on some of the most popular numbers r hte from hs solo ventures 15 tracks n all.

We're black and t's much harder to get n on any success trp w hen you are. "For starters you don't have many people buyng your records and secondly black managers are notorously nept.

"Style s the most mportant thng n pop, Just as t was n punk. 'm not nterested n playng to people wearng leather Jackets and bondage salts.

Why do crtcs love the obscure for Ws own sake's Why do they dscard heroes once they start sellng a few records? Why were the Pstols more fun before the Daly Mrror started wrtng nce thngs about them?

" 'd wanted to make money, 'd have stayed wth the Vbrators." Coller was the bas player wth the Vbrators untl Autumn last year, shortly after the band sgned a lucratve deal wth. He left, t comes as no surprse, because he was bored "My deas and ther deas were mles apart but met Knox agan recently, and the thngs he was sayng he was gong to do were all the thngs wanted to do when was n the band." The punk stance that the Vbes took at the tme s now rapdly becomng redundant. "There s a cohegent dentty n the power pop groups. t's lke pckng up punk rock and takng out all the crap and all that s obnoxous. t's very smlar to the begnnngs of punk except that at the begnnng of punk there was nothng dyng.

Oddly enough, he s none of these; merely someone fanatcally commtted to hs own deas and someone wth a strange honesty, He could have wheeled out requste ncetes whch would have put hm n the bland popetar mould that teen worshppers crave. He chose to cry truth and set hmself up to be slaughtered. But don't care, not at all "A pop star doesn't strke me as somethng don't want to he. But won't calculate t.

We should be playng here more, but we've never thought of desertng - the tour later ths year U gong lobe the bg one to prove that." Presently based n West Germany and London, Heatwave are about to release the follow-up album to 'Too Hot To Handle' to concde wth a return to lve work. But they won't, nsst.

Too much nfluence s left hangng around from the Proms, the classcs and overstuffed Vctoran pre. tensons Apart from whch, unless you st h the mddle arena, the sound s poor. Consequently, Em mylou'o voce was lost to some of the audence part of the tme. And those who could hear seemed to be slghtly overawed by the ohole affar. t would have been much better to put her n the Ranbow for a few nghts, nstead of ths nhosptable barn of a place. The stutterng shyness of the crowd to applaud when they recognsed an Emmylou gem, made her all the more nervous about her performance She and her band spent far too much tme between pscerd >Artbr, Fabwry tg 1976 sane tanone de.plte t',e f, y' w1 r gel s, d,. strugglng wth ther awrnd mace bry e?' rved When they dt t gong,they went terrfc.

The frst half closed wth 'Country Boy' whch gave Albert Lee the chance to stun everyone wth he phenomenal expertse (By the way, that's another thng bate about the Albert Hall, the way the act splts up ther set, gvng every one the chance to fght ther way through to the bar just as the bell goes for you to take your seats agan. ) Part two opened wth 'To Daddy', the Doly Parton song that Em. rrtylou's chosen to be her new sngle. thnk t's a fne song, but t may be Adverts -- all 'spt and promse THE ADVERTS The Roundhouse, London 1 DD feel sorry for The Adverts on Sunday nght They had to tght every nch of the way for any knd of acceptance from a hostle crowd. The man problem seemed to be that a large majorty had come to see Sham 69, and havng done so, decded to wreck The Adverts' chances of havng a good gg. Not that they had behaved any better through Sham - there was a bundle down the front and Jmmy Pursey stopped the show untl t was sorted out. From the mnute The Adverts walked onstage, there was a constant shower of beer and spt, presumably from a bunch of moronc nerks at the front who thought they were beng outstandngly clever. For the most part, the band tred to gnore t and blasted through wth 'One Chord Wonders', ther openng song. t ddn't help when Gaye's personal protector kept Comng onstage and dabbng the gunge off her har wth a hanke. t's no lme to treat her lke a lady - she has to take t lke everybody else - but she gave no sgn that she'd even notced.

The whole band persevered through the set - 'Safety n Numbers', 'Bored Teenagers' - a lot of stun from ther new album. of whch 'Bombete Boys' and 'Net, Church' show most promse. t says a lot for ther determnaton that they not only carved on but managed to woo some support at the end - even to the pont of comng back for an encore and playng 'Wheels'. 1 don't thnk 'd have had that much patence wth the puerle behavour of the Closet hppes (stll hauntng the Roundhouse n the hope that some day Quntessence mght mlrutculowly rnatertullse out of the walla) and the, spoor tttle rch kds who get ther kcks out of slummng t ROSALND RUSSc t, \\\\

But sure enough n hs column we get the usual abuse about beng ant socal and fllng the place wth smoke. Let me explan, under normal crcumstances a D. J. would probably use two cartrdges durng the course of an evenng. At exhbtons we were usng about 200 cartrdges a day for demos, The smoke even from ths many s not at all uncomfortable. Mr Hamlton makes the effect sound lke the ultmate deterrent n crowd dspersal. Perhaps t s worth bearng n mnd that our pyrotechnc devces are extremely safe and stupd remarks only drve people to use what can only be termed as 'Sucdal Devces'. What prce an arm or face?
