Collins concert charms audience
By ROBIN SMITH Staff Reviewer
Judy Collins is an enchantress:
Her bewitting powers empowered more than 60 people throughout a two-hour concert last Friday in Hoch Auditorium.
And once again, her crystalline voice left a broad-based audience spelled with fear.
With 40 years and 17 albums behind her, Collins has continued to improve her mystical potion as a singer. She achieves her impact by mixing smooth melodies with

any story Collins entertained about 3,000 people Friday evening in Hoch Auditorium. Bowie singles some of her early hits, Collins performed many songs from her new album.
Review
Judy Collins
sweetly melancholic songs and adding a pinch of simplicity every now and then.
Collins apologized for a 45-minute delay in the concert, saying that she just had wanted to talk with Bella Abzug, a former U.S. musician, before the concert began. During the intermission of Collins' show, Abzug stood up and began singing "bubble gum and wearing a KU corazon belt."
COLLINS beg her concert with two and familiar tunes, "Chief of New Orleans."
Then, after appealing to her nostalgic disciples, Collins introduced songs from her earlier works.
The audience applauded the mention of the album. But Collins, who has returned to the stage after a long absence, reacted to the success of herrebirth with awkwardness.
Perhaps she felt insecure performing without her traditional guitar; perhaps she would have enjoyed her ability to come back, but her chitchat with the audience between her songs found
"I think of Lawrence as my second home," she said. "I had a husky dog who came here to live with some friends of mine. I saw a man with a mangy roosing around."
AFTER RESPONSE from the audience to that tidbit, Collins trailed off into one of her new songs, "Dorothy." As one might have guessed, the song is about our treasured and symbolic Dorothy of Kansas. However, precious Dorothy is now
middle-aged and, considering the emptiness of her present existence, never should have
"Dorothy was a fool to help, she could have stayed," Collins sang.
"I guess it only serves her right, for trading all that color for black and white. All her sorrow, all because there ain't no way to stay in Kansas when you've been to Or."
COLLINS CAREER has spanned a long period and even today she brings back a trickle of songs from her past. Collins lbedt out "Pretty Pohy" from her folk era, while spotlights faded from blue to red as the lyrics changed from passion to death.
From the rock upsurge and into the popout of the late 60s, Collin refrained from using slogans and sang only "The Hostage." "The Hospice prison overthrow in which the singer is a guard who is killed when the Governor invades the prison with bombs and gas during a riot.
Collins has calmed down through the years, and the mellowness of "Through the Eyes of Love," a theme song from the Wall Street series "Ice Castles," disappointed many fans.
However, Collins redeemed herself during the second half of the concert. Relying on her traditional floor length gown and bewitching power of her voice, the audience applauded for 10 minutes after "Send in the Clawns."
Collins returned for only one encore, "Angel, Spread Your Wings," which depicts an Emily Dickinson outlook of accepting death.
A true performer who uses only her voice to convey a feeling, mood and enchantment, Collins ended the concert with a gracious bow to an admiring audience.
Spheeris show canceled
A sign over Hoch Auditorium doors Friday night read, "We regret to inform you that Jimmy Spheiris will not perform tonight."
According to Randy Levy, promoter for Schon Productions of Minneapolis, Minn., which put on the concert, Spheeris, who was to perform before the JudyCollins concert, did not perform because of a "technical problem."
Levy said that no one had told Collins that there would be an opening act.
"I admit it, it was my fault," Levy said Friday night. "Judy didn't really know what was going on. She didn't know Spheris and she had never heard him play before.
"She had planned on doing the show alone and it is kinda hard to rearrange a show when all of the equipment is down."
According to a crewman who works for Collins, Collins herself "uused" Spheris.
