A really good hit! &
by BOB THOMAS
HOLLYWOOD lAPl - Actress Sumi Haru often hears this comment: “My, your English is certainly good!”
To which she replies: “I should be; I’ve been practising it since 1939. when I was bom in New Jersey.”
Of Filipino descent. Sumi Haru has grown accustomed to such remarks. In her earlier career she was subjected to another kind of type-casting - “I played a plefhora of geisha girls in everything from M-A-SH to Teahouse for the August Moon.”
  Her experiences have led her to activism in the ethnic minorities committee of the Screen Actors Guild and the equal opportunity committee of the TVradio actors union. She is also president of the Associa’ion of Asian-Pacific American Artists.
  The group recently picketed the filming of Charlie Chan and the Curse of the Dragon Queen as well as the release of The Fiendish Plot of Dr Fu Manchu The leading roles in those films were played by Peter Ustinov and Peter Sellers. respectively.
   Haru. a music major at the University of Colorado, said she grew up with little awareness of her ethnic background. That’s one of the reasons she joined the East-West Players, a group of actors seeking to develop their skills and make themselves and the public conscious'of Asian heritage
   Asian-American actors are following the lead of blacks. Hispanics and Indians, all of whom have campaigned for more jobs anr* less stereotyped portrayals

ELVIS COSTELLO: Taking Liberties (Columbia) 4 Stars.
  This is the second collection of 20 songs on a single disc that Costello has released In 1980. If It’s less coherent than the soul-oriented Get Happy that’s because these are leftovers and B sides from his English albums and singles. Fanatic Costello devotees probably already have most of this music, but those who don’t will value the lovely but bizarre country oddity Stranger in the House, the rockers’ Girls Talk, (I Don’t Want to Go To) Chelsea, and Wednesday Week, and the softer Big Tears and Dr. Luther’s Assistant. By far the most scarifying number here is Night Rally, and I’d argue that it is both the best track and the one Costello track that’s been left off a U.S. release that was perhaps a misiake. Taking Liberties is hardly a major piece of work, since it’s programmed with a deliberate lack of coherence, but interesting stuff, nonetheless.

BILLY BURNETTE: Billy Burnette (Columbia) 3 Stars.
  Nephew of Johnny, son of Dorsey, cousin of Rocky, Billy Burnette has some kind or rockabilly legacy. On his debut LP. he does his best to live up to it, with success which, while marginal, gives hope for his future. His cover of the Rock and Roll Trio’s great Honey Hush, for instance, is a bit too slick to qualify as high class rockabilly, and Elvis's One Night is entirely overwrought, but less burdened by comparison. On songs like Sittin’ On Ready, Danger Zone and Angeline, Burnette loosens up and rocks like a thoroughbred. Which is a compliment to his abilities in more ways than one, since the best performances here are turned in on the original material.

CHELSEA: No Escape (I.R.S.) 4 Stars.
  Released two years too late, Chelsea’s first American album is still an encouraging example of post-Sex Pistols rock and roll. The best track here, Right to Work, was a part of the Pistols-led punk movement in early 78, but the newer tracks here (especially the garage-punk style of the title track) show an interesting development, serious minded but less self-consciously arty than the Gang of Four legions.	* * *
