FAME HAS COME to these three Ann Arbor musicians who mal
up the Brownsville Station rock group in the form of a new Y
single entitled "Smokin' in the Boys' Room". The trio return
home yesterday and talked with Daily reporters about their su
den success in the pop music world.

Brownsvite Station:
Energetc rockers'
By TOM KIPPERT
Brownsville Station, following the recent success of their hit
single "Smokin' In the Boys' Room" have taken on increased
popularity. The three energetic rockers from the city sat down
with me yesterday and spoke freely about rock and their music
in particular.
"Smokin' . . .", a single taken from the Brownsville LP
"Yeah" (on Big Tree records), catapulted into the Top Ten na-
tionally in January. The group also did a nation-wide tour with
blues-rocker Johnny Winter and are awaiting release of their
new LP, "School Punks".
Thus far the band, consisting of Cub Koda (lead guitar and
vocaIs), Mike Lutz (bass apd vocals) and Henry Weck (drums)
has relied mainly on basic, powerful rock and roll." Our music
certainly will change as our audience grows up, but you have to
start with the basics first," group member Koda insisted.
With the instrumental power that Brownsville possesses, rock-
ing comes easy and so does reacking a relative audience. "Rela-
tive" in this case means an audience that can easily listen, con-
sider and finally understand the music played.
"I think there is a void in the market right now for a music
that is relatable and believable," echoed Mike Lutz about the
group's product." We play young music and that's the way our
music comes out."
Young or old, Brownsville Station retains a distinct energy
that is rare among American rock groups these days. Throughout
this particular discussion, held in drummer Weck's house, all
three of the musicians remained aloof and willing to talk about
any and all of the topics concerning the band.
Performance-wise the trio takes a truly moving and kinetic
stance. On a "Midnight Special" television show aired last Janu-
ary, the group did two number ("Smokin' . . ." and "Question
6f TeMperature") with a unique, athletic-like gusto.
Lutz described Brownsville Station's performance level, "It's
never planned, we're physical in anything we do. That's just the
way it comes out." If that's the case, I'd like to see Koda, Lutz
and Week on the basketball court.
Wiiding down, each rocker described how different influ-
ences had taken hold of their musical tastes record-wise. They
also expressed a definite interest in comedy recordings such as
The Marx Brothers. (I spied the book Why a Duck? on the man-
telpioce), Lenny Bruce and the 2000-year old man himself, Mel
Brooks. In fact, all three voiced interest in someday making a
movie and working with Mel Brooks as their director.
We were informed that the group taped another TV show
("In Concert" for all you equal time freaks) that will be aired on
April 26.
Besides having a great sense of humor and a distinct human-
ity about them, the group as individuals had solid goals and di-
rection for the future. With a certain talent and energy that clear-
ly acc6mpanies that, the band is overdue for better things in the
world of rock.

NEW YORK - You don't real-
ly expect a Norwegian actress
to tell you she loves apple pie.
And especially during the course
of a mid-day feast of lamb cur-
ry at New York's elegant Pierre
But there are a number of
unexpected things about Liv
Ulman, including that she
doesn't appear altogether com-
fortable in her fairly new role of
international star. She also drops
other surprising tidbits, such as
that she once was nearly ab-
ducted by a strange man in Lon-
don with obviously evil designs
upon her person, and that she
believes in ESP - extra sensory
perception.
Of all the Scandanavian ac-
tresses labeled through the years
as natural successors to Great
Garbo or Ingrid Bergman, only
Miss Ullman really hits the
mark. Besides her brilliant and
touching performances with good
friend Max Von Sydow in the Jan
Troell masterpieces The Emi-
grants and The New Land, Liv
helped turn Ingmar Bergman's
Cries and Whispers into a world-
wide runaway success. She sur-
vived -her Hollywood baptism in
Lost Horizon and proved her
sense of comedy in Forty Carats.
In later stages she has gone

and moved to Rome.
Liv admitted she has been as-
tonished at the commercial suc-
cess of Cries And Whispers, the
latest of several films she has
made with Bergman. She con-
tinues to work with the Swedish
director despite the end of their
five-year love affair.
"We. never thought that pic-
ture would be such a success,"
she said. "You know it was made
on a very small budget. Nobody
was paid. We were all producers.
We didn't expect anything and
then it became such a hit.
"Of all Ingmar's pictures,
this is the public success. I
don't understand it because it's
really a difficult picture, I think.
But then, it goes directly to the
emotions. I think that's what
people need now. They need to be
moved one way or another.
"All the big, film companies

had turned it down. Not one
wanted it. When it suddenly
caught on, Ingmar was very sur-
prised."

ogy, fortune - telling, that sort
of thing.

Ingmar hated, was talking to rye
in my hotel room. Ingmar called
from Sweden and said 'Oh, that
woman is with you.' How did he
know?"
Does she find life has changed
since stardom set in?
"Maybe a little," she said.
"Not among my colleagues, be-
cause they're really marvelous,
and not in a big way. tut I have
been criticized. people comrmient
on things I do in a different way.
"Before, they were always
very nice all the time, maybe be-
cause I played only very sym-
pathetic roles. Now I have to eat
things up, which sometimes I
think is a little unfair - things
I'm quoted as saying but I
haven't said.
"One difference I suppose is
that I'm more recognized. No-
body ever recognized me as an
actress except when I was act,
ing, and I have more of that now.
It's difficult to be private."
She gave a little sigh.

"A man in Hollywood read my
hand and said I would have a
boring year in 1974," she said.
Isn't that silly?
"Well I do think some of those
things are true. I think the moon
and sun reflect something on us
when we are born. They don't
give you your character, but they
affect the possibilities maybe.
"I believe in ESP. Sometimes.

I were coming out of a depart-

and we were terrified.
"The driver could see this, I
suppose, and he rolled down the
window and asked how old we
were. I said 14. Then he drove
us to the YWCA and let us go.

Liv said during her life with
Bergman, who is the father of
her seven-year-old daughter
Linn, she discovered she some-
times could read his mind.
"It was a game we played.

the room. A vase or something.
And I would guess what it was. I
could do it with him.
