More about Stevie and his remarkable long-awaited album In Square Circle on page 21, the Album Tip page. Most of the changes on the European airwaves take place outside the Top 10. Sandra's Maria Magdalena has a long chart history and the airplay on this Europroduction is still increasing with a lot of German and Benelux stations adding it to their play - lists. The second Boys And Girls track Don't Stop The Dance is a very successful one' for Bryan Ferry. The single gets heavy coverage in the, Germany and Southern Europe and moves from 18 to 13. Sting has both of his singles charted one after the other; while Wave moves from 24 to 16, Free jumps straight at 17 (from 28). The other prime airplay movers include Lloyd Cole, Cliff Richard, Bonnie Tyler, and The Cars (suddenly picking up strong airplay in the Benelux. The amount of tips we received on Diana Ross latest high-tech disco single Eaten Alive is enormous and she is this weeks 3rd best entry after Bananarama (Do Not Disturb) and French singer Laurent Vou- Izy (Les Nuits Sans Kim Wilde). THE PEARSON FAMILY One of the most successful new disco - acts of this year, the Pearson- family a.k.a. Five Star, have two popular singles charted in Europe at the moment. While the is making a hit out of Love Take Over (a track written and produced by the two members of the Dutch band The Limit, Bemard Oattes and Rob van Schaik; remix comes from Paul Hardcastle) Continental Europe is still going with the second single Let Me Be The One. The successes of e.g. Five Star, Princess, Lisa Lisa & Cult Jam, The Coolnotes and Mai Tai clearly show the growing importance of pop -polished disco products in favour of the more funky and rough disco approach. The highest entry in The European Top 100 Singles is John Parr's St. Elmo's Fire, new at 20 (Angel at 16 is a reentry). ELLE ADORE LE NOIR After Philip Bailey the other Earth, Wind & Fire frontman Maurice White comes up with a solo single. We doubt if it will become just as successful as Easy Lover, but his cover of the classic Ben E. King song Stand By Me, is enwrapped in a good and groovy pop production along with some new arrangements of the song. Another recommendation to add to your playlist is Debbie Bonham's single Sanctuary (Carrere).' Debbie is the sister of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham who died five years ago. Pete Townsend, wrote the new single for Roger Daltrey, After The Fire, his latest solo -outing for his new label partner 10/Virgin. Moving over to the Europroductions of this week the obvious choices are Baltimora's Woody Boogie and Falco's Vienna Calling. But from Belgium comes the exciting single Elle Adore Le Noir (She Loves Black) from TC Matic, Belgian's best pop group; a beautiful romantic tango with the impressing vocals of Arno Hintjes. 3

5 UNITED KINGDOM While Bowie & Jagger and Stevie Wonder remain best played singles in the, Huey Lewis, to Sire -act Red Box (Lean On Me), Lloyd Cole and Bananarama are this weeks prime movers on airplay level. The Club/ Phonogram act Cameo stands a fair chance to be a major addition to the first 20 best played singles next week, as do Five Star (ilove Take Over; in the Benelux Let Me Be The One is a favourite), Madonna (Angel; on the Continent Groove is still the hot addition), Glenn & Claudia (Heaven 17 teaming up with Propaganda -singer Claudia Bruecken), Bobby Womack (I Wish He Wouldn't Trust Me So Much), Billy Paul (Sexual Therapy) and Style Council's latest The Lodgers. Following our spotlight on Madonna, the brings the re- released Angel straight in at 10 and The Damned follow much later at 39 with Is It A Dream (MCA). Other entries for Dead Or Alive (My Heart Goes Bang - new at 41), The Cure's latest Close To Me (44) and Gary Numan (Call Out The Boys). 4 new singles in the Top 10: Marillion's Lavender (5-13), Amii Stewart (7-12), Midge Ure (If I Was in its 2nd week up to 9) and Mai Tai (Body And Soul). GERMANY The best played single in Germany still is Tina's Hero but the difference with Bowie & Jagger is very small. The major additions on the German airwaves this week include Stevie Wonder's Part Time- Lover and German singer Ulla Meinecke with Heisser Draht. Good contenders for next week entry in the 20 best played singles in Germany include the new single of Italian singer Alice (Prospettiva Nevski), Cliff Richard's She Is So Beautiful and the Commodores latest Janet. Three German local artists also have strong chances to enter the German playlists; veteran rocker Udo Lindenberg with Moskau, the American born (but living in Germany) Jennifer Rush with Des- *, tiny (her Power Of Love single is quite popular in the U.K. and is still charted) and Modern Talking's Cheri Cheri Lady. Chartwise Kate Bush, Lee Marrow, Modern Talking, UB40, Lian Ross (Fantasy on Zyx), Baltimora (Woody Boogie) and Heart (What About Love) are the significant movers. A surprisingly high entry for rocker John Parr: his St. Elmo's Fire is new at 19! Other entries for Propaganda (Machinery), and Princess. FRANCE The major changes on retail level include Modern Talking's You Can Win If You Want and, although in the lower regions, Kool & The Gang's Cherish. The hegemony of Jean -Jacques Goldman continues both on AM and FM stations, one of France's best played singles of '85. The new Johnny Halliday(Rock 'n' Roll Attitude) is this weeks prime mover on the AM stations and the new single of Yves Simon Abyssinie is the major French addition on AM. Other new French records picking up airplay this week include David Coven (Afrique), Elizabeth Anais (Intimidate), Vivien Savage (C'Est Que Le Vent) and Century's Lover Why. On FM level Madonna still is the ruler of the airwaves, followed by Laurent Voulzy with his tribute to Kim Wilde, Les Nuits Sans Kim Wilde. The Cure (In Between Days), Diana Ross, Tears For Fears (Everybody) and Modern Talking's You Can Win are the international productions added to the FM playlists this week. HOLLAND It seems like the Madonna mania only just started in Holland; Like A Virgin replaces Sting solo album at the number one spot. The Cure's The Head On The Door is new in the top 10 (from 15) and the popular Dutch singer Koos Albers debutes at 26 with his new album on CNR. Yet two other Benelux productions follow on the heels of Koos Albers as new entries in the album charts: George Baker Selection new at 35, (the single Santa Lucia By Night has crossed over to Germany and is currently at 44) and the Belgian band TC Matic have their new album Ye Ye (on EMI) new at 59. One album likely to enter the Dutch album charts next week is Diana Ross' latest Eaten Alive. While the charity single Drive by The Cars is going down in the English charts (13-6), the single has just been re-released in the Benelux and is already 3rd best played single. SPAIN The Spanish Superventas chart is still taken by Opus Life is Life followed by 19 and Modern Talking's You Can Win. New in the Top 10 is Madonna; her Angel moves into top 5 (4-13) and this makes Spain together with the (new at 10 this week) the sole market in Europe where Angel is top 5. Madonna's single for Geffen, Crazy For You, is another prime mover in the charts: Italian artist Den Harrow is also new in the top 10; his Future Brain moves to 7 this week (from 11). Other fast movers for Eurthymics (11-24) and the duet between Pedro Vargas & Julio Iglesias entitled Felicidades dumping from 26 to 12 this week). The best played single in Spain is Fenizia by Hombres -G followed by Baila Para Mi by Spanish band Objetivo Bermania, one of our Eurocrossover tips last week. GREECE Best selling single in Greece is, as earlier stated in the Madonna article on page 8, the 12" single Angel/Into The Groove. Other popular singles include Tina's Hero, Life Is Life, Axel F, Don't You, 19 and Sandra's Maria Magdalena. Apart from two compilation albums Bruce Springsteen, Eurythmics, Dire Straits, Modern Talking, Style Council and Bryan Ferry have best selling albums in Greece at the moment. SWITZERLAND Two Euro-productions jump in the top 10 this week; Michael Cretu (who also produced the number 1 in Switzerland, Sandra) moving from 10 to 5 and Italian singer Den Harrow, moves with his Futurebrain to 6 (from 13). Highest entry this week is the Bowie & Jagger duet at 14 and Two Of Us make the biggest jump outside the top 10 (Blue Night Shadow from 23 to 15). AUSTRIA It took a long time for the Kool & The Gang single Cherish to chart outside the U.K. After France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland and Denmark it seems like Austria will be the next Euro-country to go along with this sweet ballad: this week's best played single. UB40, Eurythmics. Sandra, Bowie & Jagger and Madonna are the other airplay favourites on the Austrian airwaves.

8 MADONNA MANIA NOW SPREADING ALL OVER EUROPE! The last two years lady singers have given a new dimension to the definition of pop. When asked "who's the Queen of pop", three names immediately come up; Tina Turner, Cyndi Lauper and Madonna Louise Ciccone. And although Madonna can't meet all the qualities constantly credited to Tina or Cyndi (some reproach Madonna that her image has overshadowed her music completely; her lifeshows do not get the same enthousiastic reviews as those of the recent Tina -tour; some accuse her of anti -feminist tendencies) it can't be denied she is US' hottest star since the days of Marilyn Monroe. SPECTACULAR NUMBERS In Europe the Madonna mania hasn't come to the same heights yet as in the US where her numbers are really spectacular. Her debut album Madonna is very close to triple platinum (appr. three million copies sold) and the Like A Virgin album has gone quadruple platinum at 4.5 million copies in the US alone and 2.5 million more worldwide. But Europe is closing in. Her first singles Holiday, Borderline and Lucky Star were modest sales successes (although faring well in the disco's) but the real explosion on retail level started end of last year/beginning of this year with the release of her second album, Like A Virgin. Cautiously debuting at 98 in the European Top 100 Albums on December 10th 1984, the album climbed up to no. 15 in four weeks time, but only hit Top 10 in its 12th week. After staying there for three consecutive weeks, it wandered 4 1/2 months in the Top 30, only to enter again the second half of August this year when the real Madonna craze infected Europe. History began on August 23rd when Into The Groove (an original B- side of Angel, the only single from Like A Virgin that flopped sofar) entered the charts at 4 which was the highest debuting single for any female artist in the history of the English charts, and it was also WEA's fastest selling single in the last five years. On the 30th of August Groove jumped to the top (in its 2nd week!) and the rereleased Holiday followed at 2. Consequently the rerun on her two albums started off again. Presently the 2 albums together sold 2 million copies in Europe, total European single sales figures exceed 5 1/2 million (Holiday 1 1/2 million, Like A Virgin 1 1/2 and Groove nearly 1 1/ 2 although sales in France and e.g. Spain are not yet started). And a country like Greece where single sales hardly do not exist, the 12" version of Groove sold over 4,000 copies! Looking at 'these figures it is more than obvious that Madonna is THE rock phenomenon of the Eighties. But how did she get to be the hottest female American singer in the world?? "...Some boys kiss me, some boys hug me I think they're o. k. If they don't give me proper credit I just walk away..." FATHER'S FAVORITE. (cp Madonna Louise Ciccone Was born in - Bay City, Michigan (near Detroit) and she was the oldest of eight childeren (five brothers and two sisters). She was named after her mother who died when she was seven. "It's extremely rare", says Madonna, "that a religious Italian woman would name a child after her. My mother wanted to be a singer. So it was like I have a mission, to live up to this name". Part of Madonna's attitude towards men could be related to these special family circumstances; because her mother was sick for so long Madonna always used to be daddy's little girl. "I was my father's favorite. I knew how to wrap him around my finger," says Madonna. Her father helped her in giving direction to her career and helped her setting goals for herself. Madonna began her artistic career as a dancer, studying ballet, modern, and la77 at the University of Michigan, and then moved to New York where she won a scholarship with the Alvin Ailey Ameri-

9 can Dance Theatre. After a few months she becomes Pearl Lange's dance assistant but changes direction in 1979 by auditioning as a singer/dancer for the French disco singer Patrick Hernandez ("Born To Be Alive"). She was immediately singled out by Hernadez' management and offered the full star treatment: flown to Paris, she was giving a vocal coach, a dance teacher, an apartment and a chauffeur. "They kept telling me I was going to be the next Edith Piaf... it was a great adventure but I soon got tired of it." Returning to New York City, Madonna hooked up with two brothers who had a band called the Breakfast Club. Madonna learned to play guitar, keyboards, and drums, and began to write her own songs. This led to her forming her own group but her experience in the New York club scene was less than totally satisfying... the punk/new Wave preference of most of the musicians was moving too far from her roots: the Motown/R&B sounds she loved best. Taking her career into her own hands, Madonna made a demo tape of one of her original songs, and took it around to the disc jockeys at the most popular rock clubs. Mark Kamins of Danceteria began playing the tune, Everybody, which rusulted in the being signed to Sire Records. Released in April of 1982, Everybody (which was accompanied by a video displaying Madonna's innovative approach to visuals) topped the dance charts and made deep inroads in black radio play - lists. It was followed by Holiday, Physical Attraction, Burning Up, Borderline, and Lucky Star, all of which can be found on her debut album Madonna, produced by Reggie Lucas, John Jellybean Benitez and Mark Kamins. In the fall of 1983 she films her nightclub sequence in the movie Vision Quest, the movie that is just out in the main box offices in Europe. Two promotional videos where drawn from the album, Gambler and Crazy For You, the latter becoming a hit in the US and Europe (on Geffen). During the winter of 1984 Madonna films on location in New York City for the movie Desperately Seeking Susan. This is her first starring role where Madonna plays the freewheeling Susan, whose flamboyant lifestyle is adopted by a bored New Jersey housewife, Roberta (Rosanna Arquette), hurling her into a fantasy adventure of a lifetime. FEMME FATALE "Acting is just another kind of performing," says Madonna. "It's just an expression, it's just being honest with your audience. So to me it's just an extension of what I do already. When I read the script to Desperately Seeking Susan, I felt immediately that I could play the part. Susan is the quintessential femme fatale. Everyone wants to know her, everyone wants to be like her. She has no roots, she represents freedom and adventure and all the things that normal people don't think they can do." In a span of less than 8 years, Madonna is the worlds hottest singer and all aspects and peculiarities of her private life are being delved; her acting debut in the wild gritty film from the streets of New York A Certain Sacrifice is now even available on home video and sees Madonna in her most intimate moments ("Madonna's Dirty Laundry" as Rolling Stone aptly called it); Madonna's early photo sessions for Penthouse and Playboy are re- published with the tempting slogan "Madonna In The Nude" and all her former relations with men and the way she slept herself to the top are revealed in close details. But her fame has yet to peak; october sees the release of The Virgin Tour, 55 minutes life footage on music video; a renewed campaign on Angel, the earlier flopped single follows (why not releasing Dress You Up, the US single, a far better candidate we think) and the Groove single has still not broken completely in the Southern European countries. "I want to conquer the world", she says with a smile. "You watch". And that's what we will do BOY TOY'S TOP TEN 1. Into The Groove 2. Like A Virgin 3. Material Girl 4. Holiday 5. Dress You Up 6.

Hope you all had a good rocking week. Usually at this front anything can happen. unfortunately this week has been a bit thin. Let's try to get something together anyway, for there are some good new records * There's a very young, talented band from the Midlands, called ROUEN who have been signed to Island records. Young, because their average age is 19, the vocalist 17 years of age. They had their debut single released, titled Ordinary Life. The band is currently touring the * THE SENSIBLE JERSEYS have released their 2nd single for Virgin last week, called Two Way Radio, it was produced by BRIAN TENCH of OMD fame * JOHN FOXX has yet again a new single on the market, this track has got the title Enter The Angel. It has been reuvrded at John's Garden Studios in London, where he has been working most of the year on his forthcoming album, which is entitled In Mysterious Ways, due to be released in the autumn. Mr. F0)0C takes both the writing and production credits for the single * COCK ROBIN had their selftitled debut album released, production credits go to STEVE HILLAGE * One of my faves. THE ALARM are about to release their new single, Strength. In about another month the new album is due. I'm waiting in anticipation * Chrysalis records have signed a deal with Australian label Big Time Records, first release will be Aussie band THE HOODOO GURUS' second album, with the great title: Mars Needs Guitars. This album has already been released in Australia, where it went gold within two weeks! The first single release of this LP is entitled Bittersweet * Ever heard about 7TH HEAVEN? No? Well them boys had their debut single released called Hot Fun, very catchy indeed and it will not be the last we'll hear from that band! * STUART LEVINE has been producing 7-e latest BLANCMANGE single which has got the title What's Your Problem, he was also the producer of their last album * You will most likely remember from an earlier issue, when we wrote about the fuzz going on about videos and lyrics, especially in America. Well the BBC Breakfast TV did a brave thing in a way, as they showed BILLY IDOL's video Dancing With Myself as an example of the sort of clips that US parents complain about. Well well! * Last week saw the release of the second single from London trio THE BOLSHOI, this track could be considered as a beauty, catchy song with rolling drums. Of course it has a title: Happy Boy. It Giants, due to be released in October * NA DAVIES of ICEHOUSE has just completed work on the new album, with producer RHETT DAVIES. IVA is now in Bath to complete the album with DAVID LORD * SYLVESTER STALLONE is not only best paid actor in the world he has just recorded some TV ID's with GO WEST in Los Angeles * Ring Records is the new born label of BARRY HAY and GEORGE KOOYMANS of GOLDEN EARRING. The first release from it was the debut single of a new Dutch band BOOM BOOM MANCINI, entitled Red Skies, which was produced by the band, George and Barry. More releases can be expected from various new talents. Besides that, GEORGE as well as BARRY will come out with solo albums, both working with different backing bands, with whom they will also occasionally appear live. But there is no need for panic- GOLDEN EARRING will definitely continue to be a band and will obviously come out with new material again soon * Now as I am on the subject of Dutch matters anyway, let me tell you about a kind of festival, held yearly, The Big Prize of Holland. It's a contest with 154 bands from all around the country. Whereby only a few bands will make it to the finale to be held on 14th of December in Paradiso. The general idea behind it is, to create more public and recordcompany interest for new unknown national talent. Maybe a good idea for other countries too? * DEL AMITRI have just recorded a new single, which is a re-recorded version of the track Hammering Heart. Production credits go to HUGH JONES. The single will be released end of September * ROUGE MALE just returned from their two and a half month tour in the States, where on some dates they supported MOTLEY CRUE. Their debut album, First Visit has now been released practically everywhere, to rave reviews. Taken from that LP was the first single entitled At Over You. In October the band will be going into the studio to record a follow up single. As touring is concerned: supporting WENDY 0' WILLIAMS at the Hammersmith Palais on September 27th, after that a 10 date tour of France by the end of November which will probably be extented to the Benelux * HERMAN BROOD has recently not only become a Daddy, but also found time to finish his new album which has just been released, it's called Buhnensucht. For them who are not very familiar with this germanic word, it means Stage addicted. Considering the fact that Herman is gigging all the time, this title is more than appropiated * INGWIE MALMSTEEN had his second longplayer out entitled Marching out. With the buzz that boy has created in the scene it seems that he is definitely Marching In * ANITA MEYER (and in case you are yet not familiar with,that lady from Holland, she's got an outstanding voice!) had her new single released called Sometimes When We Touch. MARTIN DUISER did the production * WHITESNAKE may have lost JON LORD, therefore 11

European radio has already started programming it and the retail impression will be felt next week. It is Wonder's first real studio album since 5 years (Hotter Than July was his last one) but it is well worth the wait. A superb collection of cheerful funky and jazzy tunes with spirited ballads. After 2 plays we're already hooked on the contagious Land Of La La and It's Wrong (Apartheid) (very suitable for 12" remix). But speaking of highlights is not doing justice to this musical genius since all the tracks are infected with a true sense of honesty and joy. Both airplay and sales on the Madonna album continue; Like A Virgin moves into Top 3 (from 5 in its 40th week) and with the exception of Portugal it charts in all European territories, with very good positions in the, Germany, Hol- NO 38 - SEPTEMBER 23TH 1985 page land and Belgium, The Cure wrest further away from their cult -status into real acclaim: only in its 3rd week. Two rockbands continue their way to the top: Gary Moore (27-57) and Saxon (41-93). The success of the English synthi trio Bronski Beat came very fast ; immediately after their first single Smalltown Boy, chart positions directly followed in all European countries. Unfortunately the group broke some time ago, but a remix album (with one additional new track) has just been released on Forbidden Fruit/ London entitled Hundreds And Thousands. Following the entry in the, the album now debutes in.the European Top 100 Albums at 71. But Phonogram has another entry in the Album charts: the new album of Dexy's Midnight Runners (the folky image has been replaced by a more business -like one), Don't Stand Me Down, is new at 68. EMI is running a campaign on Talking Heads, and a successful one; Stop Making Sense makes a re-entry at 43 and Little Creatures moves further up to 19 EURORADIO ALBUM SMASHES 1 This week's most played albums on European Radio. 2 r Madonna - Like A Virgin- c A.,14S7 Sting - Dream Of The Blue Turtles- A&M Bryan Ferry - Boys And Girls- EG/Polydor A/Z Index European Top 100 Albums AC/DC Aled Jones 00 Alice Alison Moyet Anne Clark Aretha Franklin Bad Boys Blue Billy Idol Billy Joel Billy Ocean Bob Dylan Bronsle Beat Bruce Springsteen Bruce Springsteen Bryan Adams Bryan Ferry Cars Chanteurs Sam Frontieres Chris Rea Cosa Rosa Dexy's Midnight Runners Do Dre Strats Dire Strarts Eurythmics Five Star Mick Jagger Modem Talking Moll Special Neil Young Soundtrack - A View To A Kill Soundtrack - Mad Max Soundtrack - Rocky 3 Spear Of Destiny 51 France Gall 97 Nena 38 Squeeze 92 Freddie Mercury 37 OMD 91 Sting 2 93 Gary Moore 27 Paul Young 22 Style Council Go West 65 Peter Maffay 35 Supertramp Herbert Groenemeyer 62 Phil Carmen 63 Talking Heads Howard Carpendaie 46 Phil Collins 6 Talking Heads Huey Lewis & The News 98 Phil COlins 85 Tears For Fears James Last 88 Pointer Sisters 56 The Cure Jennifer Rush 52 Prefab Sprout 75 The Pogues Johnny Halliday 61 Prince & The Revolution 39 Tina Turner Julio Iglesias 25 Propaganda 20 U.S.A.
