WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 7, 2004 E3 EDMONTON JOURNAL CULTURE Cocaine involved in Hatfield death Kaldor invites folk fans to gather round the telly Canada's answer to Austin City Limits debuts tonight known, I would have said something to him." An initial autopsy found Hatfield had advanced coronary disease. Aheart attack due to thedis-ease was listed on Hatfield's death certificate. However, Tooker said a final cause of death was not determined until after toxicology reports were completed. The death certificate will be changed to reflect cocaine as the cause of death, he said. Tooker's office received the report of cocaine intoxication on Dec.

24, but he asked for the information to be released after the holidays out of respect to Hatfield's family.

Register from his home in Newport Beach, Calif. "I never saw him (use cocaine). I knew absolutely nothing about it If I had Zoe Busiak ild Card All A iCTrn K70F UP TO MOW? SUPPLIED to her musical resume. Kaldor says of the fiddler and multi-instrumentalist who is considered one of the bright lights on the North American acoustic music scene.

With segments clocking in at minutes, Kaldor is given the opportunity to perform one original tune before introducing her weekly guest, who in turn performs four tunes, one more often than not with the host. Another feather in her cap is the fact Kaldor has been repeatedly singled out for her strong interpretation of If You the Gordon Iightfoot tribute disc which was released late last year. Connie Kaldor Wood River HaR airs weekly on Wednesdays 7 and 10 p.m. on Vision TV and is rerun on Friday afternoons at 2:30. fall ratings rector, said his station's slight drop in numbers might be attributable to the national network's decision to broadcast the Liberal leadership convention from Ottawa during the last few days of the rating period.

He said Edmonton viewers may not have been especially interested in watching Paul Martin's coronation. Tim Spelliscy, Global's station manager, said the station's gains were prompted from a decision two years ago to focus more on local stories during its flagship p.m. newscast. Spelliscy also said the stability their anchors Lynda Steele and Gord Steinke has helped viewers become attached to the program. A revamped morning news show has helped, too, he said.

"Basically we're doing more local news. People are sampling us in the morning and then they're watching us at 6 p.m.," he said. The Associated Prcnn KALAMAZOO, MICH, Righteous Brothers singer Bobby Hatfield's death in November was caused by cocaine and not just heart failure, according to the official autopsy report. Dr. Richard looker, chief medical examiner for Kalamazoo County, told the Kalamazoo Gazette in Tuesday's editions that Hatfield's death was triggered by acute cocaine intoxication.

Hatfield, 63, died Nov. 5 just hours before a Righteous Brothers concert. He and his partner, Bill Medley, had hits like Unchained Melody and You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling.

She has come reasonably close to seeing that dream realized thanks to a new folk-driven show she's hosting on Vision TV. Not only did the producers of the 13-part series want to put the one-time Edmontonian in the spotlight, they also slapped her name on the marquee. The debut instalment of Connie Kaldor Wood River Hall goes coast to coast this evening, as the singer-songwriter plays host to three of this country's best-known acoustic bluesmen, Mose Scarlett, Jackie Washington and Ken Whiteley. "Variety television of this sort just seemed to completely dry up in this country a number of years ago. So I'm very excited about this opportunity thatwill allow people, both fans and the uninitiated, access to this type of music.

"There are so many great Canadian performersouton the road right now, I'm very encouraged by how rich the scene is," says Kaldor. "We feel that this show could help galvanize the folk scene." Although Kaldor has spent a great deal of her career writing about the lay of the land out A-Channel journal Culture Staff EDMONTON CFRN is still Edmonton's ratings leader, Global has surged and A-Channel's momentum has been all but wiped out, according to new supper-hour newscast numbers released Tuesday. In the key 18-plus adult demographic, CFRN's Afews at Six attracted 137,100 viewers between 6 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. during the 2003 fall ratings period, down from 138,000 during the same period in 2002.

Global, the only station with a growing audience, was up 6,900 viewers, from 116,900 to 123,800. A-Channel's cast, which had seen substantial ratings gains in previous Bureau of Broadcast Measurement surveys, dropped to 8,300 viewers from 22,600. CBC's 6:30 to 7 p.m. supper-hour newscast also had 8,300 viewers, a positive bump of 800.

Young yet seasoned artists such as the Wailin' Jennys, Eileen Laverty and the Dunks were also booked by creative consultant Bruce Steele, the one-time host of the popular prairie television program What OnEarth.

Bruce Cockburn, the recendy re-formed Stringband, Blackie and the Rodeo Kings and James Keelaghan are a few of the artists found on the guest lists for future segments. "Having April Verch in our house band was a bonus too, but it meant we were all going to have to practise harder," strikes out in The union representing A-Channei's striking workers said the new numbers prove its strike is affecting the upstart station's popularity. "This shows the company's claims that we're not having an impact on programming are patently false," said Adrian Pearce, chair of Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Local 1900. While A-Channel's news director Chris Duncan acknowledged the ratings results were "disappointing," he dismissed that notion. "The first thing that would jump to mind is the labour disruption, but it would be impossible to prove its impact We've had positive viewer feedback through the strike, and we will continue to improve our product," Duncan said.

"We're disappointed with this book, but we're not so sure it's not an anomaly."
