' , ' Well, space kids, Saturday night is the night. Hawkwind, continuing on their intergalactic missions throughout the country, will converge upon Pershing Auditorium. With this sort of astral identity, they will present us with their music of vision and space, leading us perhaps to the last frontier. For those of you hung up on the genre, space-rock is one of the few, if not the only, surviving form of acid-rock. Also appearing will be Rush. Tickets are $4, and $5 on the day of the show. The concert will begin at 8 p.m. And for those of you who need something to think about until then, try this on: In the second second forever I thought of the pair of broken shades lying on the tarmac. (from "A Space Ritual" by Hawkwind) Cover best part of album Suzi Quatro is a trim young woman who has been parlayed into being the current queen of British rock by producers Nicky Chinn and Mike Chapman. Adopting butch stance, wearing a wardrobe of black leather or silver lame' and singing at the top of her lungs, sne nas managed to attract a large following among European and British teenybops who seem to thrive on the harsh attitude she has towards them. It seems she is building the same sort of following here in the States. Her first album, characterized by a simple-minded sound accompanying infantile, nonsensical lyrics, was a moderately successful release, and her second album, simply titled "Quatro", will probably surpass it, decorated as it is with a gorgeous color photo of her on both the front and back of the album jacket. Unfortunately, her music does not live up to the artwork this time, for this disc i3 evidence of nothing more than simple self-indulgence on the part of Quatro and her production staff. david ware Gone is the vitality, the bite that was In abundance on the first album. Some one has evidently told her she needs to lay back a little so as not to scare the kiddies, and she has taken this advice to heart with a vengeance. Only on the first two cuts on the first side of the album does she let herself go, and even on those two tracks, "Devis Gate Drive" and "Keep A Knockin', she is seemingly performing In a parody of herself, her vicious voice dulled by over-engineering. All of this is a shame, for Quatro has some real puieoiisji, if uniy Siiw wouiu chuck her producers and ei her voice mature. Until she does, she will remain nought but a striking photograph on an album cover. In marked contrast to Quatro, Tracy Nelson continues to mature, turning out a consistently first-rate body of music. Her latest release, "Tracy Nelson", is a fine, balanced disc that. shows Nelson's singular voice to good advantage, It is hard to pick favorites on this album, but her chunky, almost band-like version of "Hold an Old Friend's Hand" must certainly rate as the best treatment this song has ever gotten. This is her best work since "Living With The Animals", and is my nomination for best female recording of the year. i t. . - i, K ! 2 - fei V Ma k fi It s( , w WALK IN WIiST OOOSt SIF.AIIII f.VNJ tt tr ! 3 i 1 Jt 1 7 t 3 thursday, October 17, 1974 I i M ! ii
