In 1984 Nigel Kennedy released an album of acoustic jazz called Strad Jazz. He also put out an album of part-Bartok, part-Duke Ellington (don't know title). There was a sort of jazz-rock album called Let Loose after that. As for his classical output I have no idea but there must be a lot of it. Incidently, the classical music critic in the Sunday Times recently did a put down of Kennedy and other musical wunderkinds. The writer claimed that Kennedy's playing on his mega-hit album of The Four Seasons was technically appalling (no flames to me please). >From: katefans@world.std.com (Chris'n'Vickie of Kansas City) >I'll save that one for my Academy Awards movie show. Anyone know >when the Academy Awards are so I can plan? I think they are on March 29th. The next Mary Coghlan album (out later this month) will be called Uncertain Pleasures. Mary has had a relative surge of TV appearances recently - appearing twice on Channel 4 last week. What is this magazine called Option - is it a pop mag? Is it available outside the US, anyone? -- Neil Calton UUCP: ..!mcvax!ukc!rlinf!nbc Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, NSFNET: nbc%inf.rl.ac.uk@nsfnet-relay.ac.uk Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11 0QX JANET: nbc@uk.ac.rl.inf England Tel: (0235) 821900 ext 5740
