0 Fortuna pulled for copyright infringementA dance compilation called Too Technocal isbeing pulled off shelves because one of thesongs on the album, 0 Fortuna by Apotheosis,infringes the copyright of the well-knownclassical work, Carmina Burana, written bythe late German composer, Carl Orff.
The Canadian Musical ReproductionRights Agency (CMRRA) is the Canadianlicensing agent for the owner of the copyrightand is behind the action. CMMRA contactedSPG Music Productions, the Etobicoke, Ont.company which released the album, and toldits representatives that litigation could followif the album was not withdrawn from stores.SPG has agreed to comply with the requestand will hand over returned copies to CMRRA.
0 Fortuna has already been the subject oflitigation in Holland, where a court orderedthe recording removed from the market and

This makes Waking Up The Nation thethird sold -out concert promoted by MCAConcerts Canada at Molson Park this summer,the other two being The Great Canadian Partyon July 1, and Lollapalooza '92 on Aug. 5.Both shows also sold -out the 30,000 capacitysite prior to the concert date.
Red carpet treatment forvisiting Suzanne RhatiganDublin -born singer/songwriter SuzanneRhatigan and her five -piece band played to acapacity audience at Toronto's UltrasoundShowbar on Aug. 6.

The band opened for Toronto's LowestOf The Low. Just prior to the Ultrasoundshow, Rhatigan and her band performed at aBMG industry showcase.
Rhatigan has been on the road performingshowcases across the U.S. and after herToronto date, she headed for London, England.She will also showcase in Australia in Octoberto coincide with the release there of her self -titled Imago album. She then returns to Europefor a five week tour.
banned further public performance. Thecopyright owner successfully argued that thedance recording was an unacceptablemutilation of Orff s composition, and as suchwas a violation of the moral rights in the work.
SPG had sub -licensed the master rightsfrom Radikal Records in the United States andthe company was under the mistakenimpression that it would not have to apply forlicensing in Canada. Jeff Sprigg of SPG says6,500 copies of the album have been pressedand he believes that about 90 per cent haveeither been sold or given away in promotions.SPG will have to pay CMRRA royalties basedon the number of copies sold.
Sprigg says 0 Fortuna was the focustrack of Too Technocal and it wouldn't beworth the trouble to re-release the albumwithout it. A sequel album titled Too

Guns concert rescheduledfor Sept. 13 in TorontoThe Faith No More, Metallica, Guns N' Rosesconcert in Toronto originally slated for Aug.9 has been rescheduled to Sept. 13 at ExhibitionStadium.
The concert, which begins at 4:30 p.m.,is one of the shows that had to be rescheduledafter Metallica's James Hetfield sufferedsecond and third degree burns to his forearmat an Aug. 8 concert at Montreal's OlympicStadium.
The same Montreal show provoked a riotwhich caused an estimated half -a -milliondollars damage after Guns N' Roses leadsinger Axl Rose stormed off the stage afterperforming for just 55 minutes. A woman whoattended the concert, and who wishes torepresent the 53,000 unhappy fans, is seekingpermission to file a class-action suit againstpromoter Donald K. Donald Productions andOlympic Stadium officials for breach ofcontract. She is seeking reimbursement oftwo-thirds of the cost of the $35 tickets. QuebecSuperior Court will decide in a few weekswhether to let the case proceed.
Guns N' Roses has been banned fromplaying Olympic Stadium again and thecancelled Aug. 17 Vancouver date for thethree bands won't be rescheduled becausethere are no available dates at B.C. Place.
Technocal: The Second Rave is scheduled fora September release.
Sprigg says the company will be morediligent from now on and will ensure that alllicensing agreements are in place on futurereleases. "It's a lesson," he says, "With technomusic there's so much sampling done that youhave to be very careful."
David Basskin, president of CMRRA,says he feels sorry for SPG but insists that hehad no choice but to take action because of theinstructions given to him by the music'spublisher. "My motivation is not to keep peoplefrom selling records. I make money whenpeople sell records, not when they don't sellrecords.
"If we'd received an application prior toSPG's release of this CD, we could have toldthem that the publisher refused to license thework and it would not have been necessary topull the product from the market. The cutsimply could have been left off the CD."
Import copies of a CD single containingfour different mixes of 0 Fortuna, which ismanufactured in the U.S. by Radikal Records,has also been available in some Canadianstores. Retailers who continue to sell eitherthe CD single or Too Technocal may be subjectto legal action. CMMRA has released noticesinforming retailers of the situation.

When FACTOR was born in 1982 with a budget of only $200,000 supplied primarily
by CHUM Ltd., Moffat Communications, and Rogers Broadcasting Ltd., and other industry
factions, the future looked chancy at best. However, in celebrating 10 years of growth
(RPM - Aug. 22/92), the aggressive young organization now boasts 10 more sponsoring broadcasters with an annual budget of $4

Being a FACTOR board member isn't an easy task. There are many variables that have
to be taken into consideration and often confrontations that would frustrate even the
most hard-nosed. Besides their regular jobs, some running huge organizations, they devote much time and effort ensuring that the needs
of fund -seekers from every nook and cranny of Canada are looked after. Some aren't, for
obvious reasons. Is it a thankless task? From an industry that's not too quick with the
platitudes, one might think so.

1995 release. In the film, viewers will be able to interact

and get all the way through it to the other side of it."
Though initial reactions to the album have been generally positive, Emmett doesn't hold lofty commercial expectations. The
industry veteran knows a number of factors have to come together to make a song or an
album a hit. "You just have to hope for the best and
hope you can get lucky with timing. You just hope that whatever the vibe is that gets created
for you will be a positive one." Ipso Facto is released in Canada by Duke
Street Records, a fairly small independent label. Because of the inherent limitations of
working with a minor label, Emmett realizes he has a restricted budget for publicity. And
since he's not the kind of artist who attracts media attention through stirring up
controversy, he hopes positive word of mouth will raise the album's profile. So far, Ipso
Facto has sold around 20,000 copies in Canada. The first cut on the 14 -song album, the
hard rocking Straight Up, was released as the first focus track in order to re-establish Emmett
at AOR radio. The follow-up, Bang On, is aimed more toward CHR as well as AOR
formats. The song also has a video. But Emmett believes that if he's going to achieve much commercial success, it will
come through the subsequent single releases of some of the ballads on the album. Let Love
Conquer All, Heaven In Your Heart, and Dig A Little Deeper all have potential.
Acid Test and Hhead at Toronto's Phoenix
Acid Test and Hhead, two Toronto bands that have been attracting major label attention, will show their appreciation to local fans by
playing a free show at the Phoenix on Sept. 3. Acid Test is also one of four Canadian
bands invited to perform at the 'In The City' Festival in Manchester, England in September.
Siberry to return to U.K. after completing album Warner Music Canada recording artist Jane Siberry is completing her sixth album.
Siberry produced most of the songs on her own in Vancouver and Toronto while
three tracks were produced by Brian Eno during Siberry's three-month residency in
London, England this past spring. The album is tentatively scheduled to be released in
January. Peter Gabriel recently invited Siberry to participate in Real World/WOMAD recording
week -- an annual event in which Gabriel invites artists from around the world to his studio in Bath, England to explore new musical ideas.
Siberry will play a week of U.K. dates with Bob Wiseman in early September and will also appear at Edinburgh Castle on Sept.
4 opening for Mike Oldfield's live world premiere performance of Tubular Bells II.
RPM - August 29, 1992 - 9
Ipso Facto has also been released in
Japan, where Emmett was surprised to find that a 51/2 -minute blues/jazz tune called Out Of The Blue was tabbed as the first single. As a
result, he's going to make a video for that
song, too. The album is also being distributed in
some European countries and Emmett did a promotional tour over there in July. He's still
shopping for an American deal, but he's confident something will come along because
of his firm fan base south of the border. Emmett has been playing selected
Canadian dates since July and is playing shows in Ontario and New York through August and
September before performing in San Francisco on Sept. 19. If things go well with Ipso Facto
overseas, he would like to extend his live playing to take in Europe and Japan as well.
He's once again been bitten by the bug which drives performers to strut their stuff in front of
a live audience. "I'll probably be touring for a good four -
to -six months, even if the record is only moderately successful," he says.
Stampeders are on the career comeback trail
The original three Stampeders have reunited after 16 years for two concerts at Lulu's in
Kitchener, Ont. on Sept. 25 and 26. Rich Dodson, Kim Berly and Ronnie
King already staged successful concerts at the Calgary Stampede in early July. And due to
the demand created by the emergence of classic rock radio, the band is also planning a Canada
- wide tour next spring to coincide with the
release of a new album. According to promoter Donald K.
Donald, the Stampeders were the top Canadian concert draw from 1971 to '74, and were the
first Canadian band to tour from one end of the country to the other. In addition to their double -
platinum single, Sweet City Woman, the band also had hits with such songs as Oh My Lady,
Then Came The White Man, Playing In The Band, Hit The Road Jack, and New Orleans.
The Stampeders also made some of the first rock videos by a Canadian act. Five of
those are included in a one -hour video entitled Canada's Rock Legends
- The Stampeders,
which is available on Quality Special Products and will soon be aired on MuchMusic.

Debbie Johnson's careermakes her dance with joyDebbie Johnson's day job is history and she'strying to make it history.
The former child performer gained a lotof exposure in the pop/adult market in themid -1980s, but when it came to the beginningof a new decade, Johnson started fresh too. Inthe fall of 1990, Johnson decided to take anew, more aggressive direction by giving hermaterial a more dance -oriented edge.
With the help of a team that includedformer Stampeder and current producer RichDodson, composer/arranger Don Breithaupt,and writers Derrick Brin and Brooks Hale,Johnson secured a licensing deal with KeithBrown and Aquarius Records that gave her thesupport of a committed label with major(Capitol) distribution.
The album that resulted from this groupof collaborators, So Excited, revealed newdimensions to Johnson's music. The firstsingle, I'll Respect You, was a top dance hitand also gave Johnson her first national CHRchart action. Power To The People, EverlastingLove, and the newest single, So Excited, havefollowed the same course.
Johnson hasn't left her AC past behindher, however. Those stations have been playingEverlasting Love, I Know You Very Well,Behind Closed Doors and Let Me Go from thealbum.
Aquarius has also just released a speciallypriced compact disc called The Dance Mix,which features two new and different versionsof each of Johnson's four dance hits.
Johnson's performing schedule has alsobeen busy this summer.

A two -Way race. Madonna's This Used ToBe My Playground once again edges out EltonJohn's The One for the No. 1 spot on the HitTracks chart. There is a wide gap betweenthose two songs and the No. 3 song. Thatshould insure it will be a two -song battle forat least two more weeks, and probably more.
Thanga, Thanga vury much! Billy Joel'sversion of All Shook Up enters at No. 77.Many people say that Elvis changed music allby himself. Despite his achievements, notmany people have shared his success whencovering his songs. In fact, only one personhas ever taken an Elvis song all the way to No.1. Name the artist and song.
A clean sweep . . . The Barenaked Ladiesalbum, Gordon, remains well ahead of the reston top of the Albums chart. The popularity ofthe album is spread right across Canada. Thealbum is No. 1 in the heart of Toronto: MusicWorld Eaton Centre and the HMV, A&A andSam's Yonge Street stores. Among the otherstores reporting it as their top seller are: Sam'sBarrington Street in Halifax, A&A' s PortlandStreet in Dartmouth, Music World's McLeodTrail in Calgary and Sam's Seymour Street inVancouver. With such wide ranging support,it appears the Ladies will have a healthy stayatop the chart.
Richie back in full swing. Lionel Richie isback in the mainstream as strong as ever.Following on the success of Do It To Me,which it peaked at No. 6, comes his secondrelease from Back To Front. My Destiny hasthe highest debut on the chart at No. 54.
Cancon honours .. ! There are plenty of b igmovers on the chart this week, but the biggestis In Your Eyes. The Leslie Spit Treeo songjumps 46 places to No. 32. The title track fromSue Medley's latest album has the second -highest debut. Behind Lionel Richie's MyDestiny, Inside Out enters at No. 62.
Pout just one time for us. The only personto cover an Elvis Presley song and take it allthe way to No. 1 is Corey Hart. He coveredCan't Help Falling in Love and it reached thetop in January 1987.

Royalty's R. Harlan Smith sends news that the label has entered into a record tracking and
promotion agreement with LuAnn Reid of Vancouver. A longtime fan of country music,
Reid has an extensive background in radio and television promotion. Reid's initial chore will be the tracking of Greg Paul's Papa track and Different Shades Of Blue by Chris Nielsen,
both of which are included on Royalty's CD sampler #7.
Lisa Logan, not to be confused with Lisa Brokop, sent along her new Roto Noto album,
For Always, which includes her latest charted single, Most Every Night. She also sent along
a tape of Through The Eyes Of An Eagle, which she performed during Canada Day
celebrations at Hamilton's Gage Park. The song got an overwhelming response from the
audience. As Logan explains, Mark LaPointe of 820 CHAM Country called her one morning
with the lyrics he had written. "I called him back that afternoon with the music for it." It was through the efforts of Bob Doidge, who
made time available at Hamilton's Grant
