"And my scream was so strong that when I finished I was shaking for 10 minutes and for the next two weeks I couldn't recoup from it." Through that experience, Miss Purim said she realized she wanted her music to be more than lyrics, more than notes, reaching toward a sense of "universal communication." She said she realizes, however, there are forces pulling her back, not the least of which is the deportation case pending against her. Her lawyer, Leon Wildes, is trying to place her on a so-called non-priority list, which allows people who can be deported as felons to remain in the country. The case is preventing Miss Purim from making a long-awaited trip to Brazil, though she wants to continue producing music in the United States, and living here with Moreira and her daughters, Diana, 11, and Niura, 17. She's getting around the home-, sickness for Brazil by surrounding herself with Brazilian musicians, welcoming those who visit, maintaining friendships with those who have settled here. "I decided if 1 couldn't go to Brazil, would bring Brazil here to this country," she said.

Her new album, Carry On, released by Warner also brings Brazil to America, mixing five songs sung in her lilting, native Portuguese with five songs that combine her style with American jazz and blues. "I hope eventually that my music won't be called a hybrid of Brazilian and American music," she said. "1 wish it would become a new kind of music, an established kind of music on its own." Albums 1.

"I would like my music to be visualized, not just heard but visualized all the time through sounds," she said in a recent interview. "I'm looking for new avenues all the time." The most powerful recent influence on her music developed from her work with Francis Ford Coppola on the score for "Apocalypse Now." Miss Purim and her husband, Airto Moreira, a noted Brazilian jazz percussionist, sat in with Coppola and several other musicians on the movie's climactic scene, which intersperses the tribal killing of a ritual bull with the death of the character portrayed by Marlon Bra ndo.

"I had to do the transition from the animal grunt to Brando's cry of death," she said. "Francis had us all sitting in a screening room around a microphone, holding hands, with our eyes closed. He explained to us all the pain he went through when he was filming on top? reviews 1970s what Genet was to sordid Paris 30 years ago.

There are even blues undercurrents here, an indication that the further development of the world's most outrageous music may be a pleasure to observe.

I 0 George Jones: My Very Special Guests (Epic) es I don't really know if Jones is the greatest living country singer although I do know that if there's anyone greater, it's only by a hair. What is clear is that Jones is one of the most revered American musicians, as evidenced by his collaborators here: Elvis Costello, James Taylor, Pops and Mavis Staples, ex-wife Tammy Wynette, Emmy lou Harris, Linda Ronstadt and (inevitably) Willie Nelson and Way Ion Jennings, among others. Strangely, though, the most successful duets are the most unlikely: Not just the long-awaited version of Costello's Stranger in the House, but the glorious final rendition of Will the Circle Be Unbroken with both Jones and the Staples sounding positively sanctified. Hot stuff. I Yachts: S.O.S (Polydor-Radar) swo Not an overwhelmingly imaginative new wave band, but not as awful as their ridiculous name suggests, either.

At the very least, one with the courage to leave the Knackish "The" off the front of their name and actually write songs with nautical themes. Could rock's sense of humor be By PETER EISNER Associated Press Writer NEW YORK Flora Purim was scrubbing the floor at Terminal Island prison in California one day in 1975 when she heard a voice reverberating through the halls. The voice was her own, singing one of her Brazilian songs, piped into the hollow corridors from a radio. Flora Purim had just won the 1975 Down Beat magazine poll as female jazz vocalist of the year, the disc jockey announced. "I'm a singer," she told a jailer nearby.

"You see, I told you. I'm a singer." "How much time you got left?" the jailer asked. "Five years," she replied. "Well, then, for the next five years, I'm your booking agent," the jailer declared. "And the floor's still dirty." The jailer was wrong.

The gutsy Brazilian singer who burst onto the music scene with Chick Corea's "Return to Forever" group served 18 months at the coed facility before she was paroled. And she has won the prestigious jazz poll every year since. The story of her arrest on a cocaine charge (she denies ever having used hard drugs) and her ongoing fight to avoid deportation from the United States as a result of the conviction, are to be the subject of a book and an upcoming CBS movie. Ever since her days with Corea one of the pioneers of the fusion jazz style, which blends jazz, rock and blues Miss Purim's voice has been distinctive. Her six-octave range takes her from traditional ballad, singing to shrill but sensuous notes that sound some 1979s 1 been By BILL HANCE Gannett News Service KNOXVILLE, Tenn.

It was the Cold Storage Lounge at the Westside Holiday Inn. It was late and there weren't too many at the bar, maybe three or four. In walks this huge guy with glasses, beard and 10-gallon hat. He and about seven other midnight cowboys plop down and order drinks. "Whew.

I'm kinda wore out," the big guy says, pushing back his hat and wiping his brow. A few moments go by and the big guy has taken a couple of gulps of his pina colada, losing half of it in his beard. "Hey, you know who that is?" a customer asks Linda, the semi-attractive barmaid. "No. Who?" "That big guy's Charlie Daniels." "Aw, it ain't either," she says.

And with Bebop-Drop and Intravino, the guys even rediscover a sense of humor that's closer to the street than the stratosphere. Floria Gaynor: I Have a Right (Polydor) After the spectacular Will Survive, Gaynor now settles back into her journeyman disco-soul singer routine with a set more notable for its competence than its inspiration. The arrangements by Freddie Perren keep your interest up, but only barely. Desmond Child and Rouge: Runners in the Night (Capitol) If this group could make up its mind about what it wants to do rock or disco or something as yet unfound it might yet be one of the amazing things about the 1980s.

Daniels, in the past, has been a major drawing card with the young music followers. His annual songfest, Volunteer Jam, attests to that.

Each January, the Nashville concert is a major draw. But now, ole Charlie's got an affair with the older set, the middle-of-the-roaders, with his newest single, a bluesy ballad called Mississippi "I'm particularly happy when the kids come to me and want to talk," he said. "And they do. "They want to talk about everything. They even ask me my advice on subjects, everything from their school work to their parents." But Charlie Daniels is finally cutting down.

"I want to stay home on the farm more," he said. "There's only two things in this world that mean more to me than anything else my family and my music. "But Hazel and little Charlie Jr. come before the music. Guarantee you that." Tammy Wynette's sizzly saga about her life may be either a movie or a TV mini-series, according to her husband, George Richey.

He said "Stand By Your Man" came to the attention of Hollywood director Jon Peters (Barbra Streisand's boyfriend) and that the deat's been signed. "He (Peters) approached us about a month ago and said he wanted to film the book," Richey said. 1 I Hashville "Yes it is, go ask. Linda walks around to where the big guy was sitting, and about that time, someone walks up and asks the big guy for his autograph. Linda pauses a minute and then says as she notices "Charlie" embroidered on his hat, "What's that stand for?" "Stands for me, I guess," the big guy says.

"Who are you?" "Charlie." "What's your last name?" "Daniels." "Well, I'll swanny," she says. "You sure are." Daniels and his Charlie Danies Band (CDB) hadjust come in from a coliseum concert a sellout, as usual. This is a banner year for the Mount Juliet, musician. He's nearing the end of his most successful year, as far as tours go. Plus, his records are bigger than ever.

For 1979, Charlie Daniels won three Country Music Association Awards single of the year (The Devil Went Down to Georgia), instrumental group of the year and instrumentalist of the year. But even though he's now an internationally known entertainer and not a stranger to the White House, he does not forget who put him in this category his fans.
