fCaapoCe 20 to a benefit show on Thursday, March 10. Long Low Rumble will play, also . the ELECTRIC Mudd Puppies and Cordy Lon, all this plus more at the . Rockfish Palace. 4. The Indestructible Beat of Soweto. Volume Two is out now, it's a compilation record of South African music most of which fits categorically somewhere in between the power dance music of folks like Fela or Toure Kunda and the more pop sound of King Sunny Ade. To American ears (and feet) it is not necessarily DANCE music but if you’ve a rhythmic bone it will make you sway and slink and, yes, smile. 5. A Winnebago with Massachusetts plates pulled into town this past week, inside was O-Positive, a band from Boston. They came-to town without a booking, but had some time off and wanted to play, so Thursday night thay did an acoustic set at The Grit which packed the place. Tonight (Wed.) they're at the 40 WATT. Electric they pack a funky punch, they'll play songs from their records Only Breathing and Cloud Factory plus new songs that just keep getting better. The list is longer, but I gotta catch a ride. Boycott grapes. Give a dollar this week. Don't worship. - Jim McKay S«NDAy-TUe. S’ - Koo.TViMt- ON DISPLAY AT THE GRIT GALLERY MARCH 4TH THROUGH MARCH 17TH PAINTINGS BY-SCOTT HELMS
