...Tonight appearance on Monday, Grant's obvious nervousness ("I've never been one to, you know, blow my own trumpet") made the audience titter. But as his magical misery tour moved through the week, he gradually learned how to perform in this difficult role: part humiliation, part wry soldiering on. With King, he called his grandmother in as a character witness, quoting her as saying, "What I tell people, darling, is that you had a few drinks with the boys and then got a bit fresh with the girls--and leave it at that...
Escada represents the classic case of a savvy and rich advertiser whose clout can be measured in magazine pages. Between 1992 and 1994, the manufacturer's advertising budget jumped from $3.7 million to $5.2 million, partly to help trumpet the launch of Escada Sport, a new line.

...album also features two very sucessful and quite different instrumental tunes. The first of these, "Factory Concerto (Remix)," by The Pietasters is a brief, but potent piece. With its heavy drums and trumpet, the song's rhythmic intensity builds extremely effectively, creating a fun and somewhat eerie mood. The second instumental, "Hi-Ball," by Skavoovie and the Epitones provides a marked contrast. Slower in pace, with piano, heavy bass and lots of horns, it shows the influence of lounge and jazz styles...
