'Undercover' proves the Stoneo ctill do it beet
In the Daily Nebraskan's tradition of great report
ing after the fact, I bring you the review of the "new"
Rolling Stones album.
Mick and the boys have done it once again. Under
cover proves they still can do it better than anybody
else.
Jasper's voice seems to have regained some lost
range. On Taioo You and Emioiional Rescue, Jaer
(
r
Cliri
Welsch
was great. He was wonderful. But his vocals didn't
ever send shivers up and down your spine, like they
do on his best work
On Undercover he finds a groove and pushes his
40-year-old vocal cords until they can be pushed no
more. Jaer sings like a blues king on "It Must Be
Hell," and manages a jivey croon on Too Much
Blood."
Speaking of Too Much Blood " the lyrics of this
album prove as intriguing as Jagger's revitalized
vocals.
Before I go on, however, I should say that the
Stones can do no wrong in my eyes. So when I say,
Their lyrics were bland on the last album," or
Maker's vocals were limited," I still maintain that .
anything the Stones do, even when they spit, is bet
ter music than most of the pop played on FM.
Lyrics. This album has bldod, revolution, sex, love
and more blood but no boredom. On Emotional
Rescue, the lyrics were a wee bit too repetitive, i.e.
"She's So Cold." Jaggcr can breathe life into a dull
epitaph with his voice. But on this album he doesn't
need to. Even the lyrics in "She's Hot," a sort of
typical Stones lust anthem, are imaginative, poetic
and often uninteiligible.
Jacr has said that Fats Domino told him never
to sing the lyrics so that anyone could understand
them. He often follows that advice. His voice often
becomes just another instrument with the band.
Not imparting lust ortlood, but emotion and sound.
On almost every track at least one verse is beyond
the ear's capacity to decode.
But it Isn't important. The Stones' lyrics aren't
very thought-inspiring, no matter how interesting
they may be. On Too Much Blood," Jaeger tells a
story in time with the strong rhythm. The story is
this Japanese guy who cuts up this girl, puts her in
the refrigerator and eats her, until, by chance, a taxi
driver sees h-im getting rid of the bones. Well, that's
all fine and good, but what does it say about society?
There's Too Much Blood. The Stones don't waste
time on subtitles. Good stuff for the literal-minded.
The music on this album isn't subtle, either. But its
a perfect blend of blues, and every other type of
music Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards have ever
heard makes for vintage Stones.
I think it's stupid to try to describe what good or
bad music sounds like. Buy this album. You won't be
sorry.

Record shops never slip a disc
Analysis by
Randy Vymcre
Lincoln: A town of chur
ches. A clean town. A fairly
small town. Although its
size and pious nature limit
some choices, we have a
good selection of record
stores.
There's Pickles, Dirt
Cheap, The Record Shop
and Marlowe's, to name
all the biggies. Money's
tight, so it's important that
the records and tapes con
sumer puts some thought
into where to buy albums.
Because of limited selec
tion, and more impor
tantly high prices, it is
silly to shop at the Gate
way or Centrum Record
Shop locations.
Although their racks do
include the most popular
albums, in most area of
music, their prices are
quite high when compared
to other choices. Why pay
$8 or $9 for an. album
when the same record
can be had for $2 to $3
less at one of the other
stores? You shouldn't.
Now, let's talk about the
other choices. Marlowe's
Records and Tapes has
some distinct advantages.
Their prices are, for the
most part, competitive.
Most of the top albums
cost $5.09. When the album
begins its descent on the
charts, the price rises to
about $7 or $8.
Their selection includes
all the hits, some choice
midlines and even some
more obscure new wave
selections.
There was a time when
Dirt Cheap was the record
store in Lincoln. And even
today, it still is holding its
rwn TTnfrvrtiin?tKr I-itysog
catedmtheLttle shopping ch and -d p i
W hen dealing with Dirt
Because Marlowe's is lo-
center at 3808 Normal
Blvd., customers can pick
up an album or two with
out going downtown or
to Gateway or East Park
Plaza. You might pay just
a little bit more, but if
you're not in the mood
for parking hassles or
crowds, go to Marlowe's.
Cheap, there is one par
ticular thing to keep in
mind: Prices are not con
sistent between the down
town and East Park Plaza
locations.
The same album can
cost you as much as $1.20
more at East Park. Down
town, at 217 N. 11th St.,
most albums cost $6.77.
Theselection at the down
town location is pretty
broad. It has one of the
. best blues catalogues in
Lineoln. At East Park, how
ever, the options are not
quite as numerous. The
emphasis here is on rock,
R&B and midlines with a
smattering of other genres
available.
