For The Record
BELINDA CARLISLE Heaven On Earth (MCA) With a new and improved figure, knock’em-dead cheekbones and a new set of pleasant ditties, this former Go-Go is back with a vengeance. Thomas Dolby lends a hand with the music and Diane Keaton helps out by directing the video for the single.

BELINDA CARLISLE
Heaven On Earth
(MCA)
With a new and improved figure, knock’em-dead cheekbones and a new set of pleasant ditties, this former Go-Go is back with a vengeance. Thomas Dolby lends a hand with the music and Diane Keaton helps out by directing the video for the single. A heavenly package!
WENDY & LISA
Wendy & Lisa
(Columbia)
Like Sheena Easton, Sheila E., and Vanity before, Prince’s two sidewomen launch their own project with well-learned lessons from the Paisley One. It’s jazzy, sweet, funky and sensual throughout, particularly "Waterfall.” A must for Prince-ophiles.
JULIE BROWN
Trapped In The Body Of A White Girl
(Sire)
If Weird Al Yankovic was a soprano, wore fishnets and was a tad funnier, he might be confused with the nutty Miss Brown. Her silly tales of murderous homecoming queens and "big & stupid” galoots are a real hoot.
SQUEEZE
Babylon And On
(A&M)
After a couple of so-so LPs, it was doubtful that these Brits would produce another gem like Argy Bargy or Cool For Cats. But with the clever "Hourglass,” Squeeze rewards our patience by dangling their catchiest hook yet. A modern classic.
