The"Mike Quatro Jam Band", 
     
     from Detroit, has been sig- 
     
     ned by the Winter Carnival 
     
     Committee to appear at the 
     
     Confederation Center (of 
     
     the Arts?!) in conjunction 
     
     with the UPEI Winter Carn- 
     
     ival '7#. Who is”Mike Qua— 
     
     tro?”F0r that matter, what 
     
     .is "Mike Quatro”? 
     
    

    
     To answer the question on 
     
     the identity of M. Quatro; 
     
     he happens to be one of the 
     
     most incredible studio mu- 
     
     cisians of our time. The 
     
     now famous Todd Rundgren 
     
     owes much of his technical 
     
     abilities to the eXper- 
     
     imenting of Quatro, and if 
     
     that doesn't confirm his 
     
     genius, Mr. Quatro has 
     
     worked with the music - 
     
     master Stevie Wonder 
     
     since 1972. 
     
    

    
     His musical repitoire in- 
     
     cludes the classical, the 
     
     cosmic and solid rock in- 
     
     terwoven into a very tas- 
     
     ty modern music delight. 
     
    

    
     If one wishes to have a 
     
     comparison with a more pop- 
     
    

    
     * ular music group, the "King 
     
     Crimson" band would prob- 
     
     ably fit the bill. 
     
    

    
     I first encountered Quatro 
     
     in 1969 in Antigonish N.S.. 
     
     whilst attending the not- 
     
    
   
   
    
     orious X - factory. From an 
     
     album entitled "Paintings", 
     
     which was produced\and arr- 
     
     anged by Quatro, a whole new 
     
     dimension in "rock" music 
     
     unfolded before me. The my- 
     
     sterious Arp - Moog “synthe- 
     
     sound" was utilized exten- 
     
     sively in creating a sphere 
     
     of music that was so intense 
     
     and so amazing, that I lis- 
     
     tened to the album for more 
     
     than two hours that night, 
     
     and have since listened to 
     
     it regularly. 
     
    

    
     At any rate, I strongly 
     
     reccommend-that all per-. 
     
     sons with a taste for rock 
     
     should make a point to be 
     
     in attendance when "The 
     
     Mike Quatro Jam Band" app- 
     
     ears before, and amazes the 
     
     Charlottetown audience. 
     
    

    
     I would also like to con- 
     
     gratulate Bill Macintyre and 
     
     the rest of the Carnival 
     
     Committee for signing such 
     
     top notch entertainment. 
     
    

    
     God knows how starved we are 
     
     in this area for live mod- 
     
     ern music concerts.

     Last week the Cadre print- 
     
     ed a story of incompetence 
     
     at UPEI. One of the depart- 
     
     ments was chastized for 
     
     what the student who wrote 
     
     the article saw as misman— 
     
    

    
     ' agement of their course 
     
     structures and instruction— 
     
     al techniques. 
     
    

    
     I am quite sure there are 
     
     other students attending 
     
     UPEI who also have stories 
     
     to relate quite similar to 
     
     the one printed a week ago. 
     
     Probably however, fear of 
     
     administrative and faculty 
     
     retaliation restrains these 
     
     students from making public

     As campus - editor of the 
     
     Cadre I am responsible for

     of anyone concerned with 
     
     UPEI please feel free to
