ARTS FILMS Nils Lofgren falls short of his own standard NILS LOFGREN In concert at the Paradise Theater, through tonight. By Jim Sullivan Globe Correspondent Nils Lofgren sang the Carole King and Gerry Goffin tune "Goin' Back" at his first Paradise show Saturday. Long one of Lofgren's best covers, it was a gentle, but stirring and determined song about recapturing better times and newing direction. "Back." sang Lofgren, "to things I learned so well." It recalled another moment in time, a jog back in Lofgren's career. REVIEW I MUSIC The moment was 1975 and Nils Lofgren had seized it.

In the early '70s, the Washington DC-based guitarist had achieved cult status through his work with the band Grin and his playing with Neil Young. But in 1975 Lofgren, then 22, released his debut solo album, "Nils Lofgren." One of the year's best, it was a record of exquisite balance musically, between infectious melodic pop and cutting hard rock, lyrically, between wistfulness and defiance. The album quickly became an FM radio favorite and NILS LOFGREN A few dynamic peaks GLOBE PHOTO BY JOHN TLUMACKI many thought it would be a springboard to stardom. Things didn't work out that way. "'Nils Lofgren" was not so much a promise as a pinnacle, and REVIEW STAGE Nicholas Linfield, Dorothy Gallagher and Cathy Allen.

GLOBE FILE PHOTO Joyce portrait out of focus "NOR': Portrait of James Joyce as a Jung Man" by Grant Keener, directed by Ralph Morse, designed by Stephen Pentek, lighting by John Torberg, at the Nucleo Eclettico, Wednesdays through Saturdays through February 6. By John Engstrom Special to The Globe "I can't abide theatrics," announces James Joyce at one point in "'Nor': A Portrait of James Joyce as a Jung Man." But as Joan Crawford said, "Whom is kidding whom?" Playwright Grant Keener's characterization of the author of "Ulysses" and "Finnegan's Wake" makes Bette Davis' Margo Channing in "All About Eve" another portrait of the artist as a menopausal bitch seem shy and reserved. Keener's Joyce is forever flouncing around his Zurich apartment, posing and preening, scribbling furiously in his notebook (when somebody comes up with a bon mot he cries, "'That's first making bad puns well-tempered and firing a stream-of-consciousness gobbledygook at his visitors, who in this play include his brother John, Ezra Pound, and a German pupil named Ilse. All of which, I'd submit, has more to do with the playwright's perfervid imagination than with the historical Joyce. But that's all right; there's nothing wrong with warping history for theatrical purposes (proof: "Richard "Nor" is a muddled mess not because it's inaccurate but because it never finds a dramatic focus.

Keener begins with the information that Joyce moved to Zurich in 1915 and wrote most of "Ulysses" there; that his daughter was schizophrenic; that he refused a patron's suggestion that he be psychoanalyzed by C.J. Jung: that Jung thought Joyce's work exemplified his anima-animus theory of the psyche; that Joyce's play "Exiles" was first produced tr Munich in 1919. (For convenience, Kenner moves the premiere to Zur Lofgren's latter albums, including the current "Night Fades are in that first album's style, but without its substantial content. The high voice is familiar and warming, the themes are familiar and cogent, the guitar playing is fa- by miliar, fluid and tasteful, but the songwriting is not up to that early, wondrous standard. That feeling dominated the first soldout Paradise performance.

Although Lofgren remains a satisfying (and athletic) entertainer, the satisfaction is somewhat muted. Lofgren and his five-piece backup band did bring the show to a rousing, firey climax, but they took a circuitous route to get there and the old songs were the ones that mostly did it. "Moon Tears," a song from the Grin days, shook with is hard guitar chords from his brother, Tom, as Nils and pianist Stuart Smith attacked with flurries of notes. With the final encore, "Back It Up." Lofgren made his plea for love and devotion credible; the simple melody exploded as Lofgren exclaimed, "I found out!" Those were dynamic peaks, but the concert had few early on. Lofgren and company often politely coasted at a -fast speed and Lofgren didn't have the charisma that could keep you tuned in through the more mediocre material such as "No Mercy." "Beggars Day" and "Code of the Lofgren is cut from same cloth as San Francisco folk-rocker Greg Kihn.

Both artists embrace pop melody first and foremost and when they fail they fail because the hooks don't register strongly enough. Both are romantics who write many of their songs around romance and failed romance. Tough, punky attitudes are offset by soft, tender sentiments: frenzied guitar rave-ups are contained by classic, carefully structured arrangements. The albums and concerts of both are dotted with superb tunes, but neither artist has been able to put together a truly powerful succession of songs. It's competent rock 'n' roll at the B-levels.

With Lofgren, particularly, that frustrates. It's hard to forget that glorious thrust into the -levels. Cambridge comedian Barry Crimmins opened. What the Dictators are to rock 'n' roll, Crimmins is to comedy a visceral all-out assault on "good taste" that? hits home and hits hard. Jack Gal- mallet U.S.

But Keener not only neglects to interpret the facts, he piles on gratuitous, invented touches which add nothing. In the finale, for instance, Joyce puts on black lace panties and grovels at the feet of his wife (who wears a priest's cassock). You figure that one out.

In the Nucleo staging by Ralph Morse, "Nor' is not only confusing, it's abrasive. The Nucleo stage is microscopic, but everyone bellows and, as if to ensure that the script sounds worse than it is, inserts many leaden pauses. Of the actors, Tony Carrigan, as the brother, is the most understated and professional. Cathy Allen plays Ilse with an accent that sounds less German than Japanese. Marc Bender's Ezra Pound is the nattiest looking of the group.

Gail Wheeler, who is very short, turns Joyce's wacko daughter into a cross between Linda Blair in Exorcist" and Baby June in To round out the cast, there is Nicholas Linfield's flamboyantly fruity Joyce, and Dorothy Gallagher's Nora. Like her historical prototype, Gallagher has auburn hair, but that is the only resemblance in a downbeat, strident and glum performance. As to why the play is named after Nora, there is no hint from either playwright or actress. The production values are of the "Plan 9 from Outer Space" ilk, with such period details as a styrofoam head which Joyce talks to (and which his daughter tries to smash up), and an array of synthetic fabrics. The Joyce domicile is painted in screaming peach and magenta.

There is also a closet which everyone keeps peering into and referring to as a "balcony." This suggests a possibility that may put the Joycean oeuvre into an entirely new light. Was James Joyce's W.C. located on his balcony, in full view of the city of ich?.
