ROCK ’N’ ROLL NEWS

Brian Ritchie of the Violent Femmes should have a solo album (The Blend) out on SST momentarily. Ritchie plays no bass on the album, but does sing and play guitar...In other SST doings, the Leaving Trains have released their second album for that label, this one titled Fuck—available on vinyl, cassette and CD, thank goodness...A piano formerly owned by John Lennon, the deceased jingle writer, may become property of the U.S. government: a prosecutor in Boston claims the ivories (and a host of other Beatles collectibles) were purchased with drug trafficking profits and has indicted three Massachusetts men.. .And, since this Bureau seems to be reporting on the advertising world of late, we’d best note that Jorry Garda, Loon Rodbone and Robert Cray are all lined up to appear in TV ads for Levi’s 501 jeans.
