Fearing rides new folk wave

: From page 22

Makeba returned to higher
public attention when she appeared
recently with Paul Simon on his
Graceland tour. On board her
album from the tour are South
African Tony Cedras and Ghanian
musician Asante on percussion.

The 55-year-old South African-
born singer mines her heritage on
Sangoma and in the process strikes
a rich, spiritual chord for all to
share.

Lyle Lovett — Pontiac, MCA 1987

He’s a Texan trained as a jour-
nalist and his songwriting belies
the fact — he tells great stories in
song.

The album can be filed under
Country, but it’s a loose relation-
ship stretched out with a variety of
rhythms and musical influences.

Lovett’s gentle voice is .
beautifully embellished by Em- .
mylou Harris on.Walk Through
The Bottomlandand L.A. County.

’ You either Lovett or leave it.

Stephen Fearing — Out To Sea,
Aural Tradition/Festival Records
1988

More fine product from Festival
Records, an organization some are
calling the capitalist arm of the po-
litically-pink Vancouver Folk
Music Festival.

Fearing, a Vancouver-baged folk
artist who spent over a decade liv-
ing in Ireland, is riding the new
folk wave currently washing the
townin fresh talent. -

-A capable guitarist with a
strong, full voice, Fearing is joined
on his debut album by Spirit of the
West, Connie Kaldor, Jim...
Keeleghan, Pat Caird and Rob

Menzies.

He doesn’t fit into easy music
pigeon holes and that makes the
album refreshingly varied with in-
strumental guitar breaks, jazzy

~ touches and shades of blues.

ed now is your sense-of clarity and

insight.
pee Look to the future for the
——~4 answers that you’re sear-
ching for. They can be found in new
ideas and all: forms of
communications.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Fer-

ret out the truth as far as
aoe yeur financial involvements
are concerned. This is not the time
to_accept murky explanations.
VIRGO (Aug, 23-Sept. 22):

Plan ahead, even if it’s one
day at a time. Alliances and

CANCER (June 21-July 22):

The press release says he ‘declin-
ed a spot with the guys who hatch-
ed U2 at the high school he was at-

The upshot of that momentous
