CLIFF RICHARD WE DON'T TALK ANYMORE - COUNT ME OUT Ita

EMI Music Distribution

We Have Arrived at the Information Age -- But Not in Person E-mail, voice mail, fax machines, beepers. Technology is overwhelming us with information, driving out the sound of human voices. We have gained the advantage of nearly constant interaction with others but make only partial connections; in the process, we are losing something precious. In this witty and intelligent book, prominent psycholinguist John Locke takes a hard look at what we are really missing as intimate forms of self-expression vanish. Talking is the way we build and maintain relationships. Talking is the way that we learn to trust one another. But we now spend our days exchanging electronic factoids, leaving us little time to "just talk." Without intimate conversation, we can't really know others well enough to trust them or work with them harmoniously. We even lose track of our own selves -- our sense of humor, our own particular way of looking at things. We become lonely. Keenly perceptive and though-provoking, Why We Don't Talk to Each Other Anymore is a provocative look at how we live with -- and without -- one another.

Born in Germany in 1973, Sellin was a happy child, but shortly before turning two, he suddenly grew terrified of other children, stopped talking & retreated into a dark & lonely world for the next 16 years. Although autistic, he taught himself to read & then began to type -- he was now able to express himself & he developed increased control. This book is a firsthand account of rare eloquence & immediacy, a remarkable story of raw human courage & -- ultimately -- indomitable hope. "Birger has broken through a wall between unbearable worlds, & what he has written is nothing other than the poetry of the human soul." "Texts of a bizarre beauty."

Cliff Richard's sixth live album, originally released in 1983 (and coinciding with his 25th anniversary in music), is also his most ambitious, avoiding his early repertoire entirely and focusing on his career from the mid-'70s up through the early '80s, and offering the accompaniment of the London Philharmonic Orchestra, 60 pieces strong. Recorded live at Royal Albert Hall, it offered the Cliff Richard of "Green Light, " "We Don't Talk Anymore, " and "Devil Woman" in a bigger-than-life musical setting, his core band of the period -- including Mark Griffiths (bass), Dave Cooke (synthesizers), and Graham Jarvis (drums) -- augmented by more than two-dozen string players and the rest of the LPO, all conducted by Beatles/Paul McCartney veteran conductor/arranger Richard Hewson. The results are the most impressive of all of Richard's concert albums, at least as far as the sheer power of the singing and playing -- "We Don't Talk Anymore" as performed here could easily be in the running for the best recording ever done

Cliff Richard's third long-player and his second studio album features him and the Shadows in a series of nicely played and beautifully recorded but mostly relatively undistinguished songs, nine of which were authored by the current Shadows membership or founding member Ian Samwell. With the exception of "I Don't Know, " the latter's work tends toward Elvis Presley-style rockers (no surprise from the author of "Move It"), while the songs written by Hank Marvin, Jet Harris, and Bruce Welch are more lyrical. The best song here is "Evergreen Tree, " a Ricky Nelson-style ballad, very much reminiscent of "Traveling Man, " co-authored by Aaron Schroeder and Wally Gold, on which the Shadows abandon their electric instruments for an all-acoustic spot -- a couple more songs like that and this album would have been a smash, and it's not like there isn't some good stuff scattered throughout. The Hank Marvin-Jet Harris authored "She's Gone" is an unexpectedly strong piece of bluesy rock, at least musically, though the overl
