Friday, July 25, 1986 Daily Nebraskan Page 7 Bad movie beat spotlights Marx vs. comatose couch potato By Dave Meile Staff Reporter Two weeks ago I told you that the great Lon Chaney film, "Indestructible Man" (1957) would be on. Well, the Marx Brothers True Marxists love the early Para mount films because they are the least conventional. There are no plots and no romantic twaddle.

Tonight KPTM shows "Girl Directed by Robert Wise, who directed Happy" (1965). The King plays "Rusty horror and sci-fi classics like "Curse of Wells," a cool combo leader who has to the Cat People," "The Body Snatcher" around his eyes, runs to a dump with guard a gangster s daughter played by and "The Day the Earth Stood Still" as hand in tow.

An astronaut s arm falls from Browne in Omaha By Chris McCubbin Staff Reporter Faster than a speeding Eric Carmen, more powerful than Cat Stevens. Able to leap James Taylor in a single bound. It's mellow, it's middle-aged, it's Californian, it's . . . Jackson Browne! Browne will be appearing in Omaha Saturday. In the "Rolling Stone Record Guide" arch-critic Dave Marsh says, "Jackson Browne is the most accomplished lyricist of the seventies. His miniaturist land scapes of life in the nether end of the 70s century, as seen from the emotional and geographic climate of southern California, provide rock's surest touchstone with the mood of the recent era." OK, Dave, fine. Seriously though, even though Browne was right up there with Alan Alda himself as an icon of 70s psuedo-sensitive wimp iness, he undeniably produced some excellent, stuff during his salad days. Starting his career with the excessive but moving single "Doctor My Eyes", as effective a portrait of 20th century alienator) as has ever hit the pop charts, Browne hit his peak with two consecutive albums in the late seventies. "The Pre tender" was an excruciatingly personal record of Browne's re actions to the death of his wife. He followed it up with "Running On Empty," a concept album about life on the road which not only lived up to Marsh's hyperbolic evaluation of Browne's songwriting skills, but even managed to generate some genuinely exciting rock'n'roll. This album gave us at least one certifiable rock classic in the title track. Browne has never been able to equal the excitement of these two albums, but he's still in there plunging. He's touring to promote his latest album "Lives in The Balance." A single, "In The Shape Of A Heart," is getting airplay. Browne will perform at the Omaha Civic Auditorium at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15.25 and are available at both Pickles and Dirt Cheap.
