JFK Jr.
in weekend ce
CUMBERLAND ISLAND, Ga.
(AP)—John John is the nation’s No.
1 bachelor no more. John F. Kennedy
Jr. married longtime girlfriend Carolyn
Bessette in a top secret ceremony Sat
urday.
Years of gossip about the man once
dubbed “The Sexiest Man Alive”
ended with a private wedding on a se
cluded island along the Georgia coast.
“My cousin John did tie the knot
yesterday,” Rep. Patrick Kennedy, D
R.I., confirmed Sunday morning at a
fund-raiser for congressional candidate
Robert Burch in Steubenville, Ohio.
Although he gave no details, his
spokesman confirmed the bride was
Bessette.
Kennedy has been romantically
linked for about five years to Bessette,
a Connecticut native who works in
public relations for Calvin Klein Ltd.
in New York City.
But she was hardly the only woman
linked to the dashing playboy who has
it all - good looks, money and a link to
Camelot. The 3 5-year-old son of Presi
dent John F. Kennedy and co-founder
and editor of “George” magazine,
J. *
ended a lengthy relationship with ac
tress Danyl Hannah not long after his
mother’s funeral in May 1994.
According to the New York Post,
Kennedy finally popped the question
to Bessette last year after she blew her
top over a National Enquirer report that
he had an affair with actress Sharon
Stone.
In February, the couple was video
taped having a lovers’ quarrel in a New
York park, with talking, fighting, pout
ing and crying before they eventually
made up. The 20-minute spat showed
up in television and newspaper ac
counts.
Last week’s issue of New York
magazine said the privacy-obsessed
Kennedy went ahead with plans for his
wedding without even divulging the
date or place to relatives. Even
cousin Patrick wasn’t invited, said the
congressman’s spokesman, Larry
Berman. “I think it was, from what we
very small,” he said.
Long waiting list for ‘Sex’
SEX from page 12
bode.”
The nonfiction “Sex” is the only
book at Omaha Public Libraries that
requires an identification to check it
out, Griffin said.
The books that retailed for $49.95
in 1992 cannot be bought because
they’re out of print, Griffin said.
In feet, controversy over “Sex” con
tinues in the used bookstore market.
Tom Kiefer from A Novel Idea, 118
N. 14th, said the stare did not have any
copies of “Sex.”
“You’re going to have areally hard
time finding the book,” he said.
“They’re never going to print it again.
It’s quite the cdlector’s item.”
Scott Wendt, who owns Bluestem
Books with his wife Pat, said they also
don’t have the book. He said that they
would sell a copy in nice shape for $60
or $75.
“It’s real hot now but I don’t think
the collectibility is going to last,” he
said. “It has no lasting appeal.”
Meanwhile, the Omaha libraries
hope for any copies of Madonna’s
“Sex.”, '
“I would just like to see the holds
list end and be out of my life,” Griffin
said.
Omaha Public Libraries still wel
come donated copies sent to the Col
lection Development, 215 S. 15th St,
Omaha, Neb., 68102.

Linda Perry
“In Flight”
Interscope Records
Grade:C
If water could sing, it would almost
surely sound like Linda Perry. Unfor
tunately, any lake, stream or cesspool
could write better lyrics.
Linda Perry, former 4 Non Blondes
front-woman, has hooked up with pro
ducer Bill Bottrell (Rusted Root,
Sheryl Crow) to create her first solo
effort, “In Flight.” Unfortunately, “In
Flight” fails to get too far off the
ground.
Perry’s repetitively self-indulgent
lyrics become tiresome as each song
continues to ask more and more rhe
torical questions. “In My Dreams” is a
rootsy pop song sporting standard
Lennon-esque liberal cliches such as
“In my dreams I build my own empire
with no color and no creed.” Perry then
asks, “Am I getting much too deep?”
Uh, probably not.
“knock Me Out” is an exception
ally tedious duet with ’60s psychedelic
diva Grace Slick. Slick is barely no
ticeable behind the wall of boredom
woven by Perry’s self-concerned lyr
ics about lost love.
“Life in a Bottle” and “Fruitloop
Daydream” are two gems on this al
bum. “Life in a Bottle” is a sharp and
succinct song about Perry’s all too real
struggle with drug addiction.
■
“Fruitloop Daydream” is an instrumen
tally quirky and vaudevillian tune
about a walk in the park, “The drag
queens, the speed freaks. All the homo
boys they touch me baby.” Here Perry
finally lets go of the cliches and the
standard self-exploration that some
times accompanies roots rock and al
lows us to see her vision of the world.
Perry owes much of this album to
her producer and her back-up musi
cians, especially Lisa Germano whose
violin adds depth to otherwise barren
songscapes. “In Flight” is enjoyable
to a point, but the utter redundancy of
ho- soul-searching becomes too much
to bear.
Perry will continue to operate in the
shadows of her roots-rockerette con
temporaries such as Sheryl Crow and
the Indigo Girls until she learns to write
songs about something besides herself.

“(America’s) Dirty Little Secret”
Warner Bros.
Grade: D
No, this band is not good.
A sticker on the cover of the albun
reads, “If you’re a bigot or a punl
phony, you will hate this album.”
know I’m not a bigot, so I must be {
punk phony because this record is piti
fill. I never thought I’d say this, but thii
band is a good mix of Winger, War
rant and Poison. However, these guys
like to call themselves “punk.”
Before even opening CD case, the
possible consumer knows these guys
aren’t contenders. The album has only
12 songs. I’ve never seen a punk al
bum with so few songs before.
The first song, “We Need an An
them,” doesn’t give the album much
of a start. Jeff Graham’s guitar play is
terrible and the lead singer, Doug
Caine, needs to take his thumb out of
his mouth and put it somewhere else.
Instead of shouting “We Need an An
them,” they should have tried “We
Need a Good Beating.”
I’m always up for a good laugh, so
I took a look at some of the lyrics in
the liner notes. Although this band
looks like white trash, in their lyrics
they try to sound like Rage Against the
Machine. In the title song,
“(America’s) Dirty Little Secret,”
Caine shouts, “Oppression, destruc
tion, bigotry burning in the nation/ Pa
thetic, antisemitic, it’s your dirty little
secret.”
Oh, don’t worry, it gets worse. In
the song “Under the Gun,” he whines,
“Moving targets in the predator’s eyes/
sitting ducks on the poverty line/ All’s
at stake as our threat gets bigger/ as
wealthy fingers it on the trigger.”
Mom always said if I couldn’t say
say something nice, I shouldn’t say
anything at all. Sorry Mom, but these
guys are bad. The music is terrible, and
the lyrics would even make Weiland
shriek in disgust. If you’re thinking of
wasting your cash and buying this al
bum, just give me the $10 and I’ll make
i sure the money is spent wisely. But I
: have faith that people today know right
[ from wrong, and will not waste their
t time listening to such crap.
