In Downchild’s case, that's good news. Donnie Walsh and stellar guests such as Mike McKenna and Gene Taylor flex their harmom muscle on a tight set of Walsh tunes. Taylor’s bamlhouse piano rolls efrortie-iy, the now famous horns cut sharply and McKenna and Walsh rough it up in a heated exchange of blues riffs. Vintage Downchild stuff, and despite the title, just like they never left. Bllly And Albert Billy Connolly At The Royal Albert Hall Ten RecordsNirgin Billy Connolly isamanfor all seasons. He'sa folkie, comedian, long-distance cyclist, stage and rnm actor, philantropist and generally nutty guy. The latter is what has endeared Connolly to an international audience. With his thick Scottish brogue, working-class shtick and ri- bald monologues, he's to parental guidance humour as Eddie Murphy is to the x-rated variety. , This concert at Lmdon's famous Royal Albert Hall Cutds Connolly on familiar, and very comfortable turf. He opens with "1've played some toilets in my time o t . ", which pretty well sums up Connolly's brand of comedy. What follows is a rambling discourse that covers a gamut of topics hom political Crgures and the pope, to condoms and a sexually-ar- oused dachshund, It's topical and generally funny, and for those immune to that four-letter word, quite accessible. NATE“ ME. MY FEBRUARY to, in its Never To Tmnée Trent D'amy Irtre*tg In: â€with: According D'arby himself hasn’t spared the hyperbole in describing his debut as "the best album of the put 26 years". A bold statement indeed, but Introducing at hut disqtta1irtes another D’nrby observation that "St) per cent oftodny’s mimic is crap". Introducing is a ittptineant debut, a record tuttt,rthehnotstparttmgtreataD'arby_may represent the immediate future of black pop music. Like Prince, he assimilates many styles and influences, but his singing owes more to the amooth delivery of Bobby Bland and vitality of Marvin Gaye. For an updated history of black music, Introducing is a thorough lesson, I suspect. though, that D‘arby has only scratched the suriiee of his resources. Redd Kross bigtirmalPolygram Coming across as a mildly-sedated version of the Ramones, Redd Kross play ragged, but eminently charming three-chord pop-punk. Having been part of the early Southern California punk scene, they've developed a skewed sense of humour and a taut, varied guitar attack. . Neurotiea is their first domestic release and true to form, they continue to trash the West Coast junk culture they've keenly observed over the years. So for a group that has lampooned the likes of Charles Manson, Linda Blair and Patty Hearst, it's not surprising to hear "Mckenzie" (a deviously innocent tribute to McKenzie Phillips), "Ghandi Is Dead" and "Janus, Jeanie and George Harrison" on the same album. Neurotica is fun, irreverent, and simple (read unpretentious). It's what rock should be all about. In fact, didn't Chuck Berry have the same idea many years ago.
