She continues with, "It was clear to usfrom the beginning, however, that Linda andArnold were the ideal team to continue ourunique style of service to Canadian writersand creators, and to expand the worldwideopportunities for agency clients in the comingdecade."
Gosewich, who has been President andChief Operating Officer of Macmillan since1982, was also President of Gordon V.Thompson Music and Vice President ofCanada Publishing Corp., responsible forGlobal Press and Thompson MusicPublishing.

Columbia to release USSR's Grebenshikov LPColumbia Records made a historic move withthe signing of Soviet rock artist BorisGrebenshikov, whose initial LP release,Radio Silence, is scheduled for early springrelease. Performed primarily in English (withcertain songs in Russian), the LP wasproduced by David A. Stewart (Eurythmics),at various recording studios in Montreal,London, New York and Los Angeles.Featured on the LP are members ofAquarium, Grebenshikov's band, alongwith Stewart, Annie Lennox, Chrissie Hynde(Pretenders), Siobhan Stewart (ex-Bananarama), and Ray Cooper.
Rather than translate material from hisnative Russian, Grebenshikov wrote songsdirectly in English, which he did during andafter several trips to the U.S. over the lastyear. He made these trips in order tofamiliarize himself with the country where hisrock 'n' roll originated. Interestingly enough,
these trips marked the first time an"unofficial" Soviet musician, withoutsanction by or obligation to the state, wasallowed to visit the West. The Iron Curtainwas parted by Belka International, a NewYork corporation which facilitates businessopportunities between Western corporationsand Soviet state agencies. Kenny Schaffer,Vice President of Belka, is also executiveproducer of Radio Silence.
Grebenshikov is regarded in the USSR asthe poet laureate of his generation, and iscredited with having been the guiding force inSoviet rock for the last ten years. WhenAquarium's first official album for the state -run Melodiya label was finally released, thefirst 200,000 copies reportedly sold out withinhours. To date, Aquarium's three albumshave sold a total of more than 3 millioncopies.

WEA Int'l and Pioneer conclude Japan venture
WEA International Inc. and Pioneer Electronic Corporation have reached an agreement whereby their joint -venture
company in Japan, Warner -Pioneer Cor- poration will now become 100 percent owned

album, which began as a simple keyboard concerto. However, in 1987, Airey met Jim
Curran, an experienced mountain climber, who was present as a cameraman on the ill-
fated K2 expeditions of 1986. By August of that year, no less than 12 veteran
mountaineers had lost their lives on the treacherous contours of the summit.
A memorable feature of the album is the haunting quality of the music. One track,
Julie (If You Leave Me), is dedicated to Julie Tullis, a British climber, who perished shortly after reaching her ultimate goal; the conquest
of K2's cherished apex. Its classical pyramidic shape and fearsome reputation
have made K2 the unanimous obsession of the elite mountain climbing fraternity. With its release, Airey has not only enhanced a
legend, but also explored the phenomenon of

Jeff Healey Band wins Holland's Edison Award
The Jeff Healey Band, although unsuccessful in this year's Juno Awards, discovered their
popularity on the international market had reaped success. Just prior to the Juno
Awards, they were advised they had won a Dutch Edison Award in the category of Best Rock Of Foreign Origin. The Edisons are
Holland's equivalent to the Junos. Following is the translation of the jury's
award announcement: "The irony of the album title
- Jeff Healey became blind at the
age of one - cannot conceal that Healey's unique guitar style and searing voice bear witness to his insights in the way blues and
rock and roll should be played. With this debut album, Jeff Healey follows in the tracks of great people in the history of rock,
like Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton. The compositions and choice of covers (ZZ Top
and John Hiatt) show a lot of experience, which makes the record a masterpiece."
Healey and his band were unable to attend the Holland award show as they were
touring the U.S., a tour they interrupted to perform on the Junos. They were also seen
performing two songs on the Arsenio Hall Show, which was televised on March 15.

Judges rap knuckles of CRIA's Fox
A 2-1 ruling (Mar. 16/89) by the Ontario Court of Appeal reversed the
decision of a lower court that had ruled charges of copyright infringement were
improperly laid against jockey, Wilfred Roch and his company, Miles of
Music Ltd. There were 42 counts of violating the provisions of the Copyright Act laid
against Roch and his company. The trial judge had concluded that there had been an abuse of process, which was sustained in the
Supreme Court of Ontario. However, in granting the appeal, all
three judges expressed criticism of the behavior of CRIA's Director of
Investigation, Pat Fox. Mr. Justice Duncan Blair criticised Fox for misleading the police
during the investigation, and also for leading Roch to believe the CRIA would consider his
request to be licensed to produce material for disc jockeys. "It was Fox's purpose to
intimidate Canadian disc jockeys by the example made of Roch and, as a result, to enforce compliance with the planned
licensing system," the judge wrote, con- cluding that Roch had been unfairly treated
and abused. Roch's company, which went out of
business shortly after a raid by the RCMP, was apparently one of several producing
compilation tapes for use by disc jockeys.

Red Skelton does it for our Anne! Red Skelton kept a busy schedule while in
Toronto recently, but still found time to do a favour for an entertainment colleague. The
signature on Red's self portrait, which he had given to Anne Murray a number of years ago,
had started to fade. When Anne heard he was coming to town, she asked if he could touch
up the signature. "A pleasure", says Red, who obliged Anne's request and the painting
of the legendary "clown" was returned to its owner with an inscription that should last for
a long, long time. (EC: I wonder if he'll sign an old print I have of him
. . . ?)

Country 1110 CKTY celebrates first year
Mark Cartland, Program Director of CKTY, sends news that the station is in the midst of
celebrating its first anniversary. "Anyone who has doubts about what a country music
radio station can do," says Cartland, "should take a closer look at Country 1110 CKTY. In one short year we have become the
Number One Radio Station in terms of adult listeners in the key buying demos of 18-49
and 25-54 according to Fall BBM/Tapscan 1988."
The weekend celebration was kicked off with an open house at Lambton Mall with a live broadcast, birthday cake and prizes that
included a trip to Nashville, as part of the first CKTY Nashville weekend getaway.
Listeners got into the spirit of things by baking cakes for the station, one included
a poem that represented the activities of the station in icing.

COVER STORY- by Graeme Boyce

Relativelyspeaking, it took a long time for sales of thealbum to surpass double platinum, primarilyon the strength of their Try single, althoughinitially, all sectors of the Canadian musicindustry were uniform in their aversionto the band's unique sound, except countryprogrammers.

However, their new album, DiamondMine, will certainly be welcomed with openarms across the country, especially in thewake of last week's Juno Awards and theirperformance with Robbie Robertson and TheBand. In spite of the accolades, countlessawards and a seemingly endless tour (over250 dates last year), Blue Rodeo still managed
Bennett: folk music greatin concert at Free TimesToronto's Free Times Cafe will be the settingfor a series of live concerts by Canadian folkmusic legend, Willie P. Bennett. He will beappearing with one-piece accompaniment(guitar and harmonica) for three evenings,March 30 through April 1 and will beperforming both new and previously releasedmaterial.
Bennett, who has released three albumsand one limited edition cassette, has beenperforming since 1972. His compositionshave been recorded by such artists as ColleenPeterson, Sneezy Waters, Peter Pringleand Garnet Rogers, among others.
Bennett's last release was in 1985, andsince then he has written new material whichwill comprise his new release set for laterthis year.

to record their new album, at an old, unusedcinema in Toronto's east end, all in the spaceof three weeks.
"We really didn't have time to actuallygo into a studio and start writing," Keelorcontinues, "We had lots of stuff kickingaround anyway." So, together withproducer Malcolm Burn, they set up theirequipment in the Donlands Theatre, bangedout nearly two dozen songs, and recordedthem with Comfort Sound's mobile studioparked in the back alley. "It's not on thesame scale as U2 renting a castle and movingin," he adds, "but it's close and comfortable.
"When we first went in to do it, we allthought 'Three weeks to do a record, can wepull it off'?' But it was such a comfortableway to record. We could just set up our stuffand leave it there. We didn't have to worryabout somebody coming in to do a jingle oranything like that. We're still not at the pointwhere we can block book a studio for threeweeks . . . it's too expensive. But this place, itwas just a dump, and cheap. It was a nice wayto record."
The interesting correlation that themusic industry has to take into considerationthese days, especially the Canadian "moversand shakers", is just how much money aband spends recording their new album,

which includes the preparation of adequatedemos and pre -production time, and howmany units are subsequently sold by theirrecord companies domestically. Due to thequality of equipment available today, as wellas the competition among the studios,recording takes less time and hence costs less.However, production still remains anoverblown factor that bands are reallystarting to take to heart, as they should.It's their money after all.
Consider a few current examples: priorto their deal with RCA, the Cowboy Junkies'independent release of The Trinity Sessionhas probably outsold the majority released bythe majors; as has the under -budget, and nowgold, album by The Pursuit Of Happiness, inthe wake of their successful indie single, I'mAn Adult Now; and, of course, the RisqueDisque Blue Rodeo debut, that simply puts toshame many highly touted records theCanadian taxpayer has had to foot the bill forover the past few years.
"We're not particularly comfortable in astudio," Keelor continues. "It's not reallyour forte, as we're not technicians in anysense. Although you do learn every time youdo a recording, and you learn to speak up forwhat you want, and not to be intimidated bythe technicians.
"The way Malcolm (Burn) worked (withfriends of Keelor's in a band called CrashVegas) and the way he approached sound wasvery much the same way that Blue Rodeo hadalways talked about sound. So, we did ademo in the room where me make our videos.We'd just plug in our monitors and startplaying, and it was great, and everyone reallyliked Malcolm. We decided to do the recordthe same way and it turned out to be a verypleasant collaboration.
"It's not live sounding, like raucousrock and roll, but it's live in that you get avisual image of a bunch of musicians justplaying in a room when you hear it,"he concludes. Raucous rock and roll indeed!In fact, Keelor picked out four tracks that hehoped country programmers would beplaying in forthcoming months. Among hischoices for country hits are Girl Of Mine,Fall In Love, House Of Dreams and NowAnd Forever. But before they embark ontheir next cross-country tour, the recordshould also be released in the U.S. andEurope, and Diamond Mine will be aninternational hit anyway.

McCallum concludes with, "We feel our listeners are some of the most creative
and enthusiastic, so we expect a highly successful and visible promotion
. . . from
painting their 18 wheelers to flying overhead banners to tattoos on their forehead
. . . we know our listeners will come through." For more information contact either McCallum

Got It (19), Lee Greenwood's I'll Be Lovin' You (22), Love Will by The Forester Sisters (25), Rodney Crowell's After All This Time (27), and They Rage On by Dan Seals (29),
which was last week's Pick Hit.
Gulley added to CFQM's New Music J.K. Gulley appears to be moving into hit
status with his latest RCA single, the title track from his Blue Jeans Boy LP. The single
is added this week to CFQM-FM Moncton's New Music. Also added are Susan Tyler's
Wrap Me Up, All Alone Again by Hal Bruce, John Lindsay's Am I The Only One, Is It Still Over by Randy Travis, Alabama's If I Had You and Johnny Cash's Ballad Of A
Teenage Queen.
Most Promising award Award winners are then chosen by secret ballot by the subscribers of the two trades.
As Savannah's President Brian Ferriman points out, the Fjellgaard win "is just one more indication of the major impact Gary
and his music are making in Europe." Fjellgaard has devoted much of his time over
the past two years to touring Western Europe where he has obviously built a large
following. His Time And Innocence and No Time To Lose releases are presently available
in the Benelux Countries and the U.K.
