[net.records] Adam Ant

tomoc (11/30/82)

You may (?) be interested in noting that his latest album is getting
a fair amount of visual publicity in some of the stores here in the
Chicagoland area.  On the cable channel MTV, his video of "Goody Two
Shoes" gets a good amount of exposure, and I saw another video of
his just the other day.  Also, I noticed while record shopping that
"Goody Two Shoes" has made it onto the Billboard Hot 100, at around
70 with good momentum.  It might not be "70 with a bullet" but it`s
promising.

	It might also be worth noting that the new Adam Ant record is
receiving very mixed reviews.  The newest issue of Trouser Press was, uh,
not too complimentary.
	The main fault people seem to be finding with it is it's lyric
content... it's very self-centered.
	Musically though, the album is very interesting, making nice use
of real horns, and some fascinating sounds made with sticks.  The singing
is similar to the Adam & The Ants releases.

I was interested - Thankyou.
The Boston area has been playing alot of 'Goody Two Shoes' the past several
weeks.  Not much else from the lp, but it wont be too long before they're
discovered.
