The kind where the killer is exactly
who you thought it would be, in the
manner you expected, etc., etc., etc.
Billed as being comparable to
notable film shockers “Psycho” and
“Blue Velvet,” “Apartment Zero”
fails in the venue of being a psycho
logical thriller. In fact, disciples of
Hitchcock may be offended by the
bastardization of innuenodoes to the
film master. Unfortunately, this film
is a proverbial bust in the archives of
mind suspense thriller.
“Apartment Zero” is showing
Thursday through Sunday and Feb. 8

Sheldon Memorial Art Gallery. Screen
ings arc at 7 and 9:15 p.m. daily, and
matinees are at 12:45 and 3 p.m. on

drama that is created. One movement
is pitted against another, and the body
is separated by movement. It’s beauty

Richard Elliot
Veteran jazzman to hit
Omaha’s music scene
By Michael Deeds
Senior Editor
Saxophonist Richard Elliot will
play Omaha’s Ranch Bowl, 1606
S. 72nd St., tonight.
Elliot, a veteran jazzman, re
cently released his fourth solo al
conm&Z
bum, “Take To The Skies.” The
heavyset Lyle Alzado look-alike
now is louring internationally in
support of the successful album.
He has played with top artists
such as Natalie Cole, Melissa
Manchester, Rickie Lee Jones, the
Temptations, the Four Tops,
Smokcy Robinson, the Ycllowjack
ets -- even (brace yourself) tcen
queen Tiffany.
Soulful saxman Elliot is one of
the hottest in the contemporary jazz
scene, even if he is a self-defined
“musical prostitute” who will play
with mall babes like Tiffany. He
phases out a nice, sweet tenor sound
that gets plenty of airplay from
big-city radio stations.
Elliot’s popularity, in part, can
be attributed to his rise and musical
growth in the legendary horn sec
tion of Oakland’s (Calif.) now
defunct Tower of Power.
Tower of Power was a hard
working band that backed up tons
of musicians and went on to a
major tour,opening for the sounds
of Huey Lewis and The News.
Elliot started his professional
career in 1976 as a teenager. After
landing a spot with a hom-and
string section that was heading for
Asia, Elliot began to take the saxo
phone more seriously.
‘ ‘Take To The Skies’ ’ has been
Elliot’s biggest album to dale. The
crossover musical styles, as well as
a vivid version of Percy Sledge’s
‘ ‘When A Man Loves A Woman,”
have sent the album on a long ride
on the Billboard charts.
. Tickets are S10.75. Doors open
at 8 p.m.

By Troy Falk
Staff Reporter

day at the Lincoln Hilton Hotel.
The fifth annual benefit features
internationally acclaimed jazz vocal
ist Lynn Carey, who will be accom
panied by the Nebraska Jazz Orches

will end with an all-star jam session.
Lynn Carey (daughter of Macdonald
Carey of “Days of Our Lives”) has
been singing and writing songs for 19
years. She has released six solo al

vocalist on six olhcralbums with such
artists as Charlie Mussclwhitc, Barry
Goldberg, Harvey Mandcl and Neil
Merry weather.
Carey’s soundtrack credits include
“Beyond the Valley of the Dolls,”
“Seven Minutes,” “Hollywood
Harry” and “Radioactive Dreams.”
In a phone interview from Los
Angeles, Carey said she was looking
forward to her arrival Wednesday
afternoon to practice with the jazz
orchestra. Carey, who just returned
from the Soviet Union where she
participated in a world conference on
preservation of world ecology, said
-Cfinfte&Cl
she performed with many Soviet jazz
musicians.
After returning to Los Angeles,
Carey said she started working with
Russian musician Mikhail Muromov
on a piece of music to be used in the
ecology movement in the Soviet Union.
“I have been giving to thisorgani
zation and others like it for years,”
she said. “Now I finally have the
opportunity to write a song for them. ’ ’
Soviet citizens are just as fond of
music as Americans, she said.
“They were very friendly and
outgoing, nothing like the stereotype
most Americans have of them,” she
raid. “Never confuse politics with
people."
People arc all people, she said --
and the people of Lincoln are in for a
real treat Friday.
Carey will perform a one-hour set
featuring the big-hand sound. She said
she also will sneak some rock and roll
or blues into her set.
The concert will be at 8 p.m. in the
Hilton’s Grand Ballroom.
