It's Time for "Cool Music." Cool music is the latest entry in a proliferation of experimen tal styles vying for the public ear and entertainment dollar on the radio and jukebox scene. Morris Day, lead singer of "The Time," one of the newest of the New Wave, Punk-Funk, high-energy rock groups, says the key to cool is "a positive atti tude about yourself coming across well in dress and atti tude." The attitude of "cool music" is to just be yourself, he says. "Go-to-school, don't be no fool, respect your fellow man and his lifestyle. In other words, to do your own thing." It applies even to dancing, he says. "There are a lot of freestyl- ers out on the dance floor now who don't follow the crowd or the latest dance trends like 'the Pong' from New Wave. This also means a wide range in how advocates dress, he says. Men can wear "threepiece suits, or fly-collar tuxedo shirts with black tie, black pants and two- tone shoes. Or just jeans and t's. For the women, it's long even ing dresses and-or baggies." The latter are arab-style pants that "bag" at the bottom of the leg. "Cool" or the New Message Music, if you will, mixes basic rhythym and blues — a style made popular by the Tempta tions, Four Tops, Diana Ross and the Supremes and Spinners in the 1960's — with pop, rock, and rap. Rap refers to mono logues describing ghetto or street life. The result. Day says, is an exciting concoction of '50s dance-beat music, '60s Funk, 70s sophistication and '80s re serve. Other groups that have tried the new "cool music" have in cluded Blondie, blues singer Millie Jackson, Teddy Pendeg- rass, and a group of youngsters called "Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five." Their hit record, "The Mes sage," told of the ups and downs of ghetto life — "broken glass everywhere, people mes sing up the stairs, they just don't care" — as well as doing time in prison. The music has been criticized by social self-help groups like Operation PUSH, for People United To Serve Humanity. They contend it may lead teena gers into promiscuity and drugs, with lyrics like "do you, do you, do you, do you love me Mary Jane," a slang word for marijuana. This is from Rick James' single Mary Jane. But adherants to cool contend that it's just fun music and shouldn't be taken seriously. Rock music was also criticized as "the devil's music" three de cades ago. Elvis Presley, appear ing on the Ed Sullivan show, was shown only from the waist up. But like Rock n' Roll, says Day, "cool music is here to stay." Day's group, "The Time," formed only two years ago, has already reached star status with cool. Their second album, "What Time Is It", has "gone gold" in less than six months after re lease. They have two singles, "777-9311"' and "The Walk", high on the charts. Their current tour, with another rock star. Prince, has been a sellout. "The Time" are from Min neapolis and were discovered by Prince, who prefers to be known only by that name. Tinker to stay 'the course' by United Press International President Reagan isn't the only one determined to "stay the course." NBC's Grant Tinker appears equally firm on the subject despite some of the most abysmal Nielsen rat ings in the history of the trou- blechnetwork. Tinker has given the nod to a new long-term contract for entertainment President Brandon Tartikoff whose cur rent pact expires early next year. The move followed renew al of NBC's entire prime-time line-up which, though critic ally acclaimed, has lain mor dant at the bottom of the rat ings heap all season. In announcing Tartikoff will continue with the Peacock network, Tinker said, "We still have a considerable programming job to do."
