4 music stores close to campus
Dy Scott Hnrrali
If you're aiming to pur
chase some of the albums
our discerning Daily Neb
raskan critics have re
viewed, you have four
vinyl boutiques close to
campus to choose from.
The kind of noise you
enjoy, the span of your
bankbook, your pen
chant for music para
phernalia and atmo
sphere should determine
which store you select.
If you like to buy 45s
rather than full-length al
bums, the Record Shop in
the Centrum has the best
selection. They offer the
latest pop, country and
soul singles which cost
around $2. Their album
selection consists mainly
of the best sellers and a
smattering of oldies. Most
of the Record Shop's LPs
run $7 to $9. -
Trade A-Tape, 227 N.
1 1 th Street sells and buys
used records and tapes.
They also offer the latest
British import LPs and
plenty of comic books.
Their new-wave T-shirt
collection is the best in
Lincoln, probably due to
the fact that this place is
obligatory 'punker' terri
tory where every esoteric
music freak goes to "be
seen."
' W
i
Pickles offers a great
selection of affordable al
bums at the unprecedent
ed low price ofl5.03. Their
import section is one of
the best in town and they
also have some jazz,
country and soul ax we 11
as all the latest chartbus
ters. Consistent music buy
ers should frequent this
store to make their album
dollars go far.
Dirt Cheap has much,
much more than records
and tapes; they also sell
posters, avant-garde clo
thing, pop-art items, kinky
greeting cardj and vcguLh
jewelry. They have prob
ably the most diverse mus
ic selection in the down
town area from rock,
country and soul to clas
sical and folk. The store
usually selects around ten
new releases and puts
them on sale for a low
$5.77. But the rest of their
albums run $3 to $8, ex
cept for the used LPs.
Thi3 is another place to
meet musical cult freaks
as it's a haven for punk
ers, new-wavers and hip
pies. So if you're hungry for
Licorice pizza, check out
these local record stores
and live up your summer
with hot music.

Prince is one of the most venerable, outrageously
original musicians of the 80s. He resembles a pint
sized pimp dressed like a Renaissance painting and
he sings like an amalgam of James Brown and Jimi
Hendrix. Not only is he a gifted vocalist and musi
cian, he is also a prolific lyricist who writes like a
pornographic Tennessee Williams.
Prince's latest LP, Purple Rain, is also the sound
track to the upcoming film based loosely on his life.
And this album follows Prince's reputation for never
producing the same style on every new effort. """
The record opens up with "Lett Go Crazy," a palpi
tating pean to God, heaven and Beverly Hills. Most of
the first side consists of bizarre love songs the
most powerful being "Darling Nikki," a salacious
serenade to a girl masurbating in a hotel lobby.
The start of the second side blasts out the sizzling
new single "When Doves Cry." This tune has every bit
of the surreal sensuality and erotic lyricism that
shot the 1999 LP to best-sellerdom last year. The last
song worth mentioning on this side is the track
"Purple Rain " an engaging, melodic fantasy crammed
full of crooning and psychadelic libido.
Hardcore Prince fans may be abit disappointed in
this album as it lacks the driving force of 1999 and
the political awareness of I982s Controversy, but
it's still endearing enough to entice you. This LP is a
must for summer listening in any case.
Here's an album for everyone who likes the drag
queen image of Boy George but hates his schmaltz
laden music. The band is called Dead or Alive, and
their debut album, Sophisticated Boom-Boom, is so
hot it should have been pressed on absestos rather
than vinyl.
The British band's lead singer, Peter Burns, dresses
in garish unisex pantsuits, has a mane of long,
freaked-out hair and a pulsating voice that sounds
like 10 banshees experiencing sweet torture. Burns'
singing is about as feminine as a male hormone pill.
And his lyrics are not lovey-dovey.
The first side starts out With the scorching song
"What I want," followed by a few more upbeat tunes
that lead up to the incredibly eerie MTV hit "I'd Do
Anything." This song is rife with libidinous lyrics, an
obnoxious beat and orgasmic wails! Most enjoyable
is the group's remake of KC and the Sunshine Band's
"That's The Way I Like It," which is much more
danceabie than the original. ,
. The second side has more of the same diabolically
erotic stuff that is devoid of any tranquility. Burns'
harmonizing keeps flowing with outrageous zeal
and the band keeps the pace moving with plenty of
percussion, gut-wrenching guitar rif& and scintillat
ing synthesizer beats. The last cut on this side is
moderately mellow; I guess the reason it's called "It's
So Hard" is because the band has difficulty perform
ing anything less than boisterous.
Sleaze, ostentation and beat make Dead or Alive a
band that rivals not only the Culture Club, but
anyone else trying to make music history today.
