Southey exhibit to open at Old Town Gallery The Old Town Gallery opens an exhibit this week by noted Utah artist Trevor Southey. The display runs from Feb. 20 to March 16. Southey has written: "As a child in my homeland, Rhodesia, Rho-desia, I spent endless months confined to bed with rheumatic rheuma-tic fever. During the long hours a pencil and paper were often my only companions. compan-ions. I learned to love art, enormously encouraged by parents and a couple of beloved but largely unskilled teachers." Pure Prairie League is back One of the better known bands in the country-rock field Pure Prairie League will be performing at the Cowboy Bar Thursday through Saturday. This marks Pure Prairie League's second visit to Park City. About a year ago, the band put on a memorable iseven night stand at the Cowboy, selling out the place v every night. Local country-jrock country-jrock fans are still buzzing ! over the group's shows and expectations are high that this engagement will prove as exciting and captivating. The group has been well known in national music circles for over a decade. They gained their big breakthrough break-through in the early '70s with the memorable hit, "Amy," which featured nicely understated under-stated acoustic guitars, billowing bil-lowing vocal harmonies and a timeless lyrical theme of a male lover's devotion to a woman making up her mind. The tune established the style and focus of the group. They haven't strayed too far from that original orientation. 'Apple Tree' opens Feb. 25 Park City Performances February offering, "Apple Tree," will open next Friday night at the Egyptian Theatre at 8 p.m. An opening night reception will be held in the lobby of the theatre at 7 p.m. Apple Tree is directed by Richard Jewkes with musical direction by John Ogden. For reservations call 649-9371. 'Passage," an etching by Trevor Southey. In 1957 Southey sailed from Cape Town to art school in England. He returned to Durban, South Africa some two years later to complete art school. He came to America and Brigham Young University in 1965 and later joined the faculty. In 1977 he devoted himself full-time to his art. He now has his studio in Salt Lake City. "The form and context of the works of traditional masters of the human figure "We're just playing music that makes people feel good," group mainstay Mike Reilly told an interviewer recently. "I'd say it's countrified coun-trified Midwestern rock. The boys in the band grew up listening to country music in the Ohio River Valley, but there are also more James Brown and r&b influences than most people will admit. People are ready for a little bit of laid-back and good-times good-times music. They got through the dance thing and the angry young man thing. Timing wise, it worked out well for us because our music is all positive." The band has had a lengthy history, at least in terms of the mercurial world of popular music. The group started out as a bar band in Kentucky and Ohio. Their first album came out in 1971. The release of their second disc "Bustin' Out" the following year provided pro-vided their big breakthrough hit, "Amy." That country-esque country-esque ballad was an AM The Park City Gallery o!

I have been preoccupied since I was a boy with the visualization of a superhuman super-human race of men seen rarely in anything but idyllic conditions. Recently this has been deepened by an increased in-creased awareness of the fineness of ordinary men," Southey said. "People often ask me about the geometry in my work. I felt this need to work structural lines into pieces, or to allow the evolution of a radio staple for months on end and is still the group's most well known number. "Bustin' Out" was the group's first gold album, selling well over one million copies. On Labor Day 1972, Pure Prairie League played at one of the last big outdoor rock festivals,,- (the ; ; oda vPpp Festival at Bull Island, Illinois where nearly a quarter million fans got to see them along with such other notable artists as Richie Havens, Canned Heat and Ten Years After. By the mid-'70s the band was still quite active both on the road and in the studio. In 1975 they released the quite successful "Two Lane Highway." High-way." The following year they put out "If the Shoe Fits" which contained a nicely executed version of Buddy Holly's "That'll Be the Day" which became a hit when released as a single. In 1977 the band released two albums. "Dance" was followed by a two-record live greatest hits package called "Takin' the Stage." In 1978 they released "Just Fly," which was highlighted by a reworked version of Lee Dorsey's "Workin' in a Coal Mine." A few months ago, the band put out the highly successful "Finn' Up" which spawned the Top 0 blockbuster, "Let Me Love You Tonight." The song showed that the band's patented harmonies were still firmly intact but that their musical focus had work to show. I still do that, but it shows differently. I work with more certainty so there is less formal probing. In some works the lines, though first formal, took on very direct links to the concept. Now they are so much a part of me that many works of the figure, even simple studies, seem lost without them." A reception for the artist will be held at the gallery, 1101 Park Avenue, on Sunday, Sun-day, Feb. 20 from 2 to 5 p.m. shifted somewhat towards easy listening pop. The content of their most recent , album "Something in the Night" ranges from lilting country swing to uptempo rockers. In reference to "Something "Some-thing in th,e Nighty" , the 'Farid's '-tenth album,' group a1ea'd!r ReHty !mus'esJn"We are letting our hair down a bit. Our sound may come from the '60s, but I think it's becoming increasingly obvious ob-vious that we're an up-to-date '80s rock 'n' roll band, not just soft country. There's a lot of different sides to us. Every time we record an album, we try to do a variety of different types of music. We always try to do more than anyone expects us to. ."We've tried to remain consistent and do what we do well," Reilly continues. "Maybe nobody knows who Mike Reilly is. There isn't an outrageous member of the band we don't project that image. We're just playing music that makes people feel good." Pure Prairie League will appear at the Cowboy Bar Thursday through Saturday. There will be one show Thursday beginning at 9 p.m. There will be two shows each night Friday and Saturday Satur-day at 8 and 11 p.m. Tickets are $10 and available avail-able at the Cowboy Bar liquor store as well as in Salt Lake at Cosmic Aeroplane, Smokey's Records, all ZCMIs and the Salt Palace.
