That’s how the singer/songwriter from Austin describes himself. Ste ven Fromholz, whose songs have been recorded by other artists such as Willie Nelson and John Denver, will bring his unique show here this weekend on the eve of the release of his next single. Fromholz and Willie Nelson have recorded a duet that will be released July 4 — the same day as the Willie Nelson picnic where Fromholz will be performing. Steven Tromhoh “It’s a song I wrote back in ’69 about storytellers,” Fromholz said. “Willie is one of the best storytellers around, so I asked him if he’d like to record the song with me and he said sure.” Fromholz has known Nelson since the early seventies when he recorded Fromholz’s “I’d Have to be Crazy." The song turned out to be a big suc cess for Nelson and it’s included on his album “Willie’s Greatest Hits.” in acting, has been traveling anil playing since the mid-sixties andki style has developed into somethinj even he can’t describe. “I really can’t classify what it is 11 be doing this weekend,^'’ he said “I've been doing this for so raani years that what I write isn’ l realk country or folk, it’s just me." “I’ll do a lot of comedy songs,! mostly I’ll pay a lot of attention my audience and see what thq want.” leath.

On that, this movie pins its hopes and dreams. Fables, being simplistic and preachy, usually con tain loads of action and little dia logue. Actions speak louder than words, right? “Streets of Fire” fol lows this form of ‘look over lines’ with mixed results. The film has a simplistic plot. Di ane Lane (soon to be seen in “Cotton Club” with Richard Gere) portrays an imrnensly popular rock singer who is kidnapped by a motorcycle gang, The Bombers. Michael Pare (“Eddie and the Cruisers”) then comes onto the scene as Lane’s ex boyfriend and bands together with her current boyfriend and a female mercenary to save her. The plot, however, is not the focal point of this movie. I realize that sounds odd, but bear with me. Direc tor Walter Hill (“48 Hours”) at tempted a lot more than just an ac tion-packed rescue film set to rock music. With the fable motif in hand, he tried to give this film a certain look and feel that would work with the story line to impart more than was there. The streets (where most of the ac tion takes place) are dark and wet with huge steel beams shooting up intermittently into the never-seen sky supporting an elevated train sys tem that also is never seen, but is heard. The cars are vintage antiques. The hair styles range from punk to the '50s. The clothes range from high-gloss leather to boxy, Ungaro- like suits to frayed Americana. With this visual hodge-podge, Hill has created a mood that is nearly palpi ble. The detail alone is impressivt Nothing was ignored when makinj up the ‘look’ of this film. In this case, though, the good# also the bad.

For example: girls are calW skirts, Pare announces that he Tom Cody every time he entersi bn'i quite u room and no sentence is ever long#pice I won t than ten words. The acting is also weak. Lane near-comatose. Rick Moranis, aslio boyfriend, is so annoying that it isal most painful to watch him whine Sm after line. Pare is acceptable can't carry the film, which is wlul the story calls for him to do.
