Al 'not-so-stiff' Gore loosens upon'Letterman'
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Vice President Al Gore.scheduled government-issued ash trays and read his own Top 10 list on CBS "Late Show With David Letterman" yesterday.
Gore set the tone in a brief, backstage stage that opened the show, poking fun at his own reputation as an earnest, upfight straight-arrow:
The vice president pitched jokes at an unreceptive Letterman: "How about, I'm so stiff that I wanted for a checkup and the doctors declared me legally dead?" Gore asked.
Letterman rejected the I'm-souff stuff gags and countered. "How about 'Know what words are the president's favorite, the one he most likes to hear?' Gore doesn't know, and Letterman cracks up, telling him: 'Would you like fries with that?'
Gore ripped into the comedian saying, "That's the president of the United States you're talking about."
The vice president charmed the studio audience and host Letterman, receiving a standing ovation from the former and an invitation to return from the latter. Paul Shaffer and the CBS Orchestra even punctuated Gore's jokes with rimshot.
Gore's appearance was a coup for Letterman, who left NBC's
"Late Night" in June and whose "Late Show" has been on CBS just one week.
It was an even bigger coup for Gore, who got to boost President Clinton's plan to overhaul government while proving that his own sense of humor was more than equal to Letterman's oblique, New York-edged comedy.
Gore backed up the administration's case for boosting government efficiency with a demonstration of the government's method of safety-testing an "ash receiver, tobacco (desk type) — sorry, that's an ash tray."
"They actually specify the exact way people have to break this in order to test it." Gore explained. "They have to count the number of pieces, and it can be no more than 35 pieces."
He and Letterman donned safety goggles and smashed the astray with a hammer on a U.S.-mandated maple plank.
Gore closed his appearance by reciting his Top 10 list of good things about being vice president. (No. 7, "Close your left eye and the seal on the podium says President of the United States." No. 3, "You get to eat all the french fries the president can't get to.)
And the No. 1 good thing about being vice president? Gore grinned and said it:
"Your Secret Service code name:
Buttafuoco!"
Grunge 'Muzak' tries to kill grunge era
The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Daniel House says it's time for grunge rock to die.
"It's time to nail the final nail in the coffin," the head of C/Z Records said, tutting the new C/Z release, "Grunge Lite," a collection of Muzak-style covers of popular grunge songs.
He's sick of seeing New York designers rip off the working-class boots and flannel affected by pioneer Seattle grunge musicians. He's sick of reading and hearing about grunge and running into people who think the only music coming out of Seattle is low, loud and raw.
The release is mainly for fun. That's what they still have at C/Z, where the staff works in T-shirts and jeans on desks plastered with band stickers and such pronouncements as "Hate Your Band," and "I Buy Music for Minors."
"If this doesn't formally end the phenomena, then nothing will." House said.
The label, which 2 1/2 years ago consisted of House and a one-person staff using one computer, one phone and a fax machine, now has 10 employ-

The label had its beginnings in 1986, with a release called "Deep Six", featuring the first recordings by Skin Yard, Green River, The Melvins, Malfunkshun and Soundgarden.
The Melvins have been credited with inventing grunge on a whim by deciding to slow their hardcore punk set down about 10 notches and going with it. Soundgarden, of course, has gone platinum and made wads of grungy money.

C/Z hopes to keep growing.
