Austin songwriter
comes to Dr. G’s
By ROBIN BLACK
Senior Staff Writer
Dr. G’s will feature a freeform-
country-folk-rock-science fiction-
gospel-goin’ bluegrass opera singer
Saturday night who’s tryin’ to make
good in a 3-dimensional world.
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.”

‘Streets of Fire’ uses
little plot, big effects
By SHAWN BEHLEN
Staff Reviewer
“Streets of Fire” is billed as a rock
’n’ roll fable. 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. So much attentionw
given to how this film looks thalven
