obliged to-fuimish it.

Sounds

With Joan Jett firmly in the top-ten on both the singles and album charts, people are going back a bit to rediscover her first band, The Runaways. Basically a hard rocking outfit, The Runaways were one of the first all-girl bands to play their own instruments and because of that they were hit with a lot of abuse from a basically all-male ^business. Needless to say, they never made it in the States, although the California group found acclaim in most of Europe And in Japan. RHINO RECORDS (11609 W. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles, CA. 90064) has issued, for the first time, their final album Little Lost Girls. As can be expected. the music is basic and to the point with plenty of driving guitar riffs and powerful singing from Joan

Jett.

The Runaways weren’t the most polished band, but they could rock. Maybe it’s too late for them, but thanks to Rhino it’s not too late for us to enjoy their music. Also, keep an eye on Joan Jett as she’s got a fantastic future ahead of her. TALKING HEADS being on vacation, the band's various members are taking on outside projects. Heads' .rhythm section of Tina Weymouth (bass) and

Chris Frantz (drums) have

The City of Cape May helped to sponsor a 28minute documentary film,

The Tom Tom Club combines African, Jamaican, and American rhythms for a highly unique sound. The music |s perfect for dancing aqd the innocent, childlike vocals make it more than listenable off the dancefloor. If Talking Heads were to dissolve tomorrow, The Tom Tom Club would have no trouble finding a large, dedicated following. . ANOTHER MEMBER of Talking Heads, Jerry Harrison (keyboards & guitar) hasn’t fared a$ well as The Tom Tom Club. His album The Red and The Black (Sire) sounds like a mediocre Heads’ album., Everything is performed and sung well — as can be expected from anyone familiar with Harrison live or with his first band,. The Modern Lovers — but most of the material is flat and ordinary. Jerry Harrison is a talented man, but this isn’t the record to win over new followers.
