prize of a $500.00 stereo set going to the sock hopper with the best 50's outfit. "The Cad-illac Kids" supplied music for the dance and skating party, with albums and T-Shirts also given away.

FORWARD PASS Howard Cosell has been put

to shame in the football excite-ment category, by WAIR/ Win-ston-Salem, who has kicked off their "Forward Pass" promo-tion. The contest follows the basic "jock in the box" for-mat, with listeners choosing one of the station's jocks, who act as "wide receivers." Passes are "thrown" on the air, carts with 7 possible foot-ball plays are used, if a pass is caught and the play com-pleted, the listener calling in wins $13.40. VISIT TO OUTER SPACE "Spacey" prizes such as

FREE RIDES WO W/Omaha took over an

amusement park for a day, supplying admission to the park, free rides, hotdogs and cokes to all, for a mere $3. Over 10,000 caught Jim Staf-ford's concert appearance at the all-day station sponsored affair. The American Freedom Train started its Omaha stay on September 23, with the station holding another con-cert, featuring Beach Boy Mike Love and A&M's King Harvest, to kick off the city wide celebration of the Bicen-tennial train visit.

SURPRISE APPEARANCE Asylum Record's Orleans re-

cently visited WTRY/Troy for an on air interview with a station personality. Much to the group's surprise, ex-band member and current WTRY jock Mike Driscoll turned out to be their interviewer, with the "hitmaker" turned "hit-player" talking about old times. Over 4 years had lapsed since Driscoll and Or-leans jammed together.

MYSTERY MILKMAN KAFY/Bakersfield jocks are

hitting the street portraying milkmen traveling in milk trucks. Listeners are urged to look for the "Mystery Milk-man" and ask him "Are you the KAFY Mystery Milkman?" Those identifying the jocks win free weekends in Las Vegas.

HALL OF FAME HITS s WNAM/Neenah has pre-

sented their "Hall of Fame" weekend, featuring #1 hits from the 50's and 60's on the air. The weekend featured a giveaway of David Bowie's record product, to tie in with David's latest hit "Fame."

RADIO BUSINESS NEWS

COKE IS A WINNER IN AD REACTION POLL Georgia consumers were recently polled on their likes and

dislikes in advertising. Best liked was Coca-Cola spots, most disliked was Gilette's Right Guard. The survey, which did not measure effectiveness, only public tastes, listed Purina Cat Chow among both the most disliked and liked ads. Others among the most favored were Atka Seltzer, McDonald's, Pepsi, and Band Aid.

WIVES HAVE THE BUYING DECISIONS In a study by Hanley Overholser Assoc., measuring the

buying influence of husbands vs. wives, it's hands down for wives in all phases of food buying with the logical exception of beer. All other food products, including wine, are mainly decided upon by female spouses, while the study show that husbands do have a direct and/or indirect power on the purchases. Fast food restaurant purchases are again in the woman's power, but not without some influence from the male partner.

FTC INVESTIGATES EYEGLASS AD PRICING The possibility of priced advertising for the prescription

eyeglass industry is under investigation by the Federal Trade Commission, who has already uncovered some objections fromophthalmologists who contend that the pricing would be unprofessional. Many current state laws forbid price advertis-ing, while the Commission is studying the possibility because of high cost of eyewear for consumers, particularly senior citizens.

CANDY HIT HARD BY INFLATION Soaring prices, including over 1000/0 increases for raw

cocoa, were responsible for hard times for the candy industry during inflationary times. M&IVI/Mars cut back one of their oldest products, "Forever Yours" candy, but the industry appears to be back on its feet with M&M re-introducing the candy with a slightly different look.

AUSTRALIAN CONCERN ON CIGARETTE ADS The "Marlboro Man" has come under fire from

an Australian cancer expert. Current Australian legislation does not restrict cigarette advertising to the extent that U.S. law now does, allowing TV and radio advertising in certain time periods. Dr. Nigel Gray, director of the Anti-Cancer Council of Victoria feels that that country's youth is subject to an unhealthy influence by such advertising as Philip Morris' Marlboro Man, and challenged the upcoming Marlboro Open Tennis match there.

BRICKLIN MAY END BEFORE BEGINNING The Bricldin safety sports car may never get off the ground,

according , to its founder Malcolm Bricldin, who has found himself in need of $10 million to maintain development of the car.

FCC POND ERS OBSCENITY BILL FCC legislation restraining obscene material from all public

airwaves, including cable television, is near completion by the Commission. The proposals now under consideration would allow fines of up to $10,000 for violations. Definition of terms, such as "indecent," are the major problem that the Commission faces in finalizing the bill.

4 NEW ABC NET PLOUGH STATIONS In addition to WJJD/Chicago and WSUN/Tampa, who have

run ABC Network services previously, WQX1VI-FM/Tampa and WPLO/Atlanta will pick up ABC's Information Network, along with WMPS/Memphis and WCAO/Baltimore who will air ABC Contemporary.

NEW RED SOX OUTLET IN BOSTON W MEX/Boston has picked up a five year contract to run

the Boston Red Sox games. The team's broadcast outlet has been WHDH, who dropped the rights for economic reasons.

RADIO PUSH FOR JOHN DENVER RCA Records plans extensive radio advertising schedules

for John Denver product during the holiday season, with buys planned for his current LP "Windsong," along with a special Christmas album and TV special. Over 32 markets will be covered by the sweep.

BIG AD BUDGET FOR NEW FILM Nearly $4 million in advertising budget is set to promote the

latest Billy Jack Enterprises film, "The Master Gunfighter," which opens nationwide this week. The advertising figure exceeds by almost $1 million the all-out effort for last year's "The Trial Of Billy Jack." TV and radio are the medias set for use in the campaign.

MILK SPOTS USE LOCAL FOLKS The California Milk Advisory Board is test-advertising in

the San Diego market, using local consumers to chat about the values of milk. Earlier commercials for the Board featured celebrities talking about milk products. So far the San Diego testing has proved that just plain folks my be just as effective in advertising.

GREEN GIANT MILKS THE YOGURT MARKET Four kinds of vegetable yogurt are being introduced by the

Green Giant Co. this month, after much research showing that the growing number of yogurt eaters would be receptive to the new flavor sensations. An independent dairy will manufacture the product, with Green Giant handling marketing. KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN PREPARES FOR McDONALDS Complete saturation advertising may be the key for

Kentucky Fried Chicken if and when McDonalds Restuarants go into the chicken business, based on McDonald's chicken testing in Virginia recently. During McDonald's test campaign there, Kentucky Fried Chicken retaliated with almost triple their usual advertising for that area, noting greatly increased sales during that period.

JAGUAR TO INTRODUCE NEW MODEL The new Jaguar XJ-S will hit the U.S. market in November,

with the company billing the car as something between a Porsche and a Mercedes. Priced at $19,000, advertising campaigns will begin in the spring.

NEW FLORIST ADVERTISING TO BLOOM ETD Florists will start a new ad campaign this fall,

restructuring their advertising approach to feature folk music jingles with real life situations, replacing the four year run of Louis Jordan spots. Radio advertising will take almost 10% of the budget, with saturation ads during special holiday time periods.

Late News BURKHART INTO WASH D.C. Kent Burkhart is moving in

on the Capital City to program W WDC AM & FM. Kent told R&R that the takeover is effec-tive immediately. Facility is 5kw full time at 1260AM, 50 KW on FM at 101.1. The FM will run Lee Abrams' "Super-stars" format and the AM will be programmed to the 18-49 contemporary audience, simi-lar to Burkhart's very success-ful KSTP/Minneapolis. W WDC was recently sold to Capital Broadcasting by Avco.

VAN DYKE TO KIEL/LAS VEGAS

One of the most creative morning men in radio, Charlie Van Dyke, currently morning man at Kill/Los Angeles is moving to KIEL/Las Vegas. Actually KIEL is a fictitious radio sation for an episode of Kojak, in which Van Dyke plays himself, but in the TV script he's cast as an after-noon jock. The show airs October 26, on CBS.

JERRY SHARELL NEW VP AT E/A

David Geffen, Chairman of Elektra/Asylum Records an-nounced the appointment of Jerry Sharell to the post of Vice President, in charge of the International Division, advertising and artist relations for the company. In his new position. Sharell

will coordinate and direct sales, marketing, and promo-tion campaigns between E/A and its affiliates abroad. WFIL EXTENDS PLAYLIST In a significant move, WFIL

has expanded their music playlist to include a new cate-gory, that of "disco music." Joel Denver, WFIL music di-rector, specified that the cate-gory was basically for testing what looks like sure fire cross-over records. Denver notes that there would be a maxi-mum of four new records

tested and that they would only get limited night play. Criteria for the new airplay testing is that the records already must be getting rock play and reaction at other stations.

A SAVAGE TAKEOVER OF THE NEW "BBF"

Bob Savage has been named the new PD at WBBF/Rochest-er. Bob replaces Mark Driscoll who exits to assume the PD position at KSTP. Savage named Dave Mason as his assistant. Mason is from WAXE. Tom Nast is the new music director.

QUICKIES The Senate has confirmed

Abbot Washburn as a member of the FCC for a seven year term. Washburn is a Republic-an and resides in Washington. He was president of a consult-ing firm before his appoint-ment. The FCC now has four Republicans and three Demo-crats. Iris Zurawin has been

appointed National Media Coordinator for United Artists Records. Art Astor is the new VP/GM

of the Drake/Chenault Com-pany. Bobby Day has resigned as

PD of KBEQ/Kansas City to join KSLQ/St. Louis to do 6-10pm. Bob Laurence is the new PD at KBEQ. Damon Sheridan exits WNCI

Columbus where he was MD. Andy Carpenter is the new MD.

RECORDS RECORD INDUSTRY NOTES

by Candy Tusken As speculated in this column last week, the U.S. Immigration Board

has relegated John Lennon's deportation order to a "non-priority" status due to John and Yoko expecting their first child. The action was taken on "humanitarian grounds" based on medical reports that specified deportation of either of Lennons would jeapordize Yoko's condition... Karen Carpenter, who friends have been alarmed at her frail and thin appearance, has been placed under Doctor's car for exhaustion and an unspecified "internal infection" with total bed rest prescribed thereby cancelling the Carpenter's million dollar Japanese tour. Richard Carpenter flew to Japan to express his regrets for the cancellation and to announce that the tour has been rescheduled for March 15th...

There is a possibility that a new Marvin Gaye single will be coming out soon, hopefully within the next two weeks if Motown decides to rush release it. Those who have heard it say it's very strong with the same feel of "What's Going On." Marvin is currently on tour and there is talk that he has also completed a new album...

SCALPERS INVADE LAS VEGAS Las Vegas' city fathers were outraged at the wholesale scalping of

Elton John tickets that went on sale last week for the October 2nd concert. Elton is the first rock superstar to perform in Vegas and the city was unaware of the potential problems of such a performance. Said one Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority member, Chuck Ruthe "we were very angry about the outrageous prices the kids will have to pay the scalpers. We were very upset with the promoters at first, but now feel the situation was unavoidable and that scalping is almost impossible to prevent." Ruthe went on to say that the city was invaded by a number of scalpers who paid kids to buy tickets and then re-sell them back for a small profit. The scalpers who also re-entered the ticket lines to purchase more than the allowed six tickets per customer. In order to prevent such a thing happening again members of the LVCVA plan to present County and City ordinances forbidding scalping... Early reports on the impact of English superstars. the Bay City Rollers. who were previewed last week via Howard Cosell's TV show, showed extremely heavy sales in Minneapolis prompting 70,000 reorders of the group's record plus a major retail chain has picked up a whole line of Bay City Roller tartan prints for their Fall and Winter fashions....

RED NECK FRIEND Some of Elvis Presley's band didn't take too kindly to his pointed

remarks regarding their eating habits. According to EarthNews when Presley came on stage, he announced that he smelled green peppers and onions and said he suspected his black vocal trio, the Sweet Inspirations, of eating catfish. When he added, "sorry for any embarrassment I might have caused you, but if you can't take it, get off the pot!"; two members of the trio mutinied and promptly walked off the stage... Bob Dylan made a rare appearance on a nationally syndicated TV show "Tribute To John Hammond" who is legendary for his discovery of Dylan plus numerous other artists for various labels. The two ninety minute specials will be aired December 6th and 13th including one segment of Dylan who sings "Oh Sister," "Simple Twist of Fate" and his moving "Hurricane" (about imprisoned fighter Hurricane Carter)... If you look closely at the album cover of Neil Sedaka's "Hungry Years" LP, you can barely discern that the drunk in the alley is Elton's lyricist partner Bernie Taupin... Polydor's recently acquired group Cracldn' (reportedly signed for big bucks) are being handled by top manager, Lou Gordon, who was turned on to the group by fan Buddy Miles. Sly Stone is also a big supporter and visited them in the studios while they were recording their debut album "Crackin' I" and contributed a few ideas. Due to radio feedback, it looks like the single off the album will be "Fallin' Line."... ZZ Top shattered the Stones previous attendence record at Atlanta's Omni by drawing 18,400 fans for gate receipts of

Caravan stopped by B&B and performed some "Cunning Stunts" from the album of the same name on Chess/Janus.

Punk rockers, SWEET, are in the strange position of being worldwide superstars, but are virtual unknowns in the wolrd's biggest record market, the U.S. After selling over 26 million records and being the recipients of 28 gold and silver disc awards from European countries, they are still

highly cautious about testing the temperatures of the hot/ cold climate of the States. They entered this country's marketplace two years ago with a hit single "Little Willie" which, unfortunately, led to their labeling as bubblegum-mere. Their manager wisely pulled the group out of the American market until they could re-enter with their true identity as prog/rockers. last week was their first concert visit to the States, but only two cities saw them. Seattle and Los Angeles [which was not planned on their original itinerary]. Said a group member: "we just wanted to get a

taste of the American audiences and were pleasantly surprised to find the reaction much the same as Germany "(where their last TEN records went to number one.) Sweet has been together eight years and their latest album "Desolation Boulevard" refers to Los Angeles' Sunset Strip and the material was selected with the U.S. consumer in mind. Audience reaction to their American debut was enthusiastic,but critics were surprised that their full staging with complicated props was absent. Explained Sweet: "We

were extremely nervous and since the concerts were a last minute thing, we didn't bring the full show with us. However, we knew we were coming back in January and have already worked up a completely new show with some highly unique staging." Their manager has been watching potential U.S. acceptance with the idea of "building a career rather than a record." Said Sweet: "We knew our next record 'Fox On The Run' was a smash, but we wanted to get initial reaction on 'Ballroom Blitz' to us as a group. We wanted to insure ourselves a strong follow-up song to build our credibility. Too many artists fade after that first big hit so we decided to reverse our strategy." A new album [being currently recorded in Munich] will be forthcoming to coincide with the full U.S. tour in early 1976.

ST tures Incurst

R&R: How are you? ANDERSON: Oh. I've just been on the telephone to London and I found out I've got Squat-ters in my house. R&R: Squatters? ANDERSON: That's what wo call those hippie typos who have nowhere to live and don't work and draw national assis-tance every week. The leach-es. The parasites. They find a house that's empty, break in, change all the locks,and live there. They're even protected by some ancient law. I now will have to spend a fortune to try and get the bastards out. You know, I spend so much time out of the country. I can't live there all of the time. This squatters law sort of gives these people the go ahead to move into a house if it's been empty for a certain period of time. Lucky, I have some friends in the police force. This is actually going to be a case of circumventing the law, getting the heavy boys around. The cops that everybody hates, right? Well. I'm on their side because I want to get those hippie bastards out of my house. I mean it's my house. R&R: It must be very frustrat-ing. ANDERSON: Yeah, maybe if I came around and signed some albums and handed them out, they'd leave quietly. R&R: Even though you've been credited with having played an important role in the pro-duction of so many Jethro Tull albums, there seems to be a distinct difference in the latest one. Word is around that you exerted much more control on "Minstrel in the Gallery." ANDERSON: Yes, I regained more control of the end result. The group didn't have somuch to do with it, it was more my responsibility. So, I put "Pro-duced by Ian Anderson" in heavy type (ha). In this case, it was me who got on the telephone and organized the hotels and the studio and guaranteed to pay the money for this and that and so on. rather than the group, or management, or anybody else. I was involved in the executive side of the production. which I hate doing, so I earned myself some heavy type. But actually, I've produced all the Jethro Tull albums since "Benefit." R&R: I am not unaware of that, but there seemed to be differences this time around.

ANDERSON: Actually, your question is very relevent. be-cause the album is more of my effort. In the past four years with albums like "Thick as a Brick" and "Passion Play,"

they are far more total group efforts. It always said "Ar-ranged by Jethro Tull." We all contributed to the arrange-ment. We all were actively involved in making the music take it's final shape. However, with "Minstrel In The Gallery" I've kept it more down to me. It's a more personal sort of an album. The group wasn't so involved except in a playing capacity in the studio. R&R: How do you feel about the results? ANDERSON: Well, I feel that it's a more balanced album. When you have five brains all trying to put everything they have got into it, it gets terribly complex and intense. I feel that my ability, one of the things that I get paid for in my

HE'S REALLY HOPP,Hq TiAD, EH'

BY MIKE HARRISON

job, is to have that kind of control, that kind of calm order about the way I put it all together and I think it's more successful for me to do that aspect of it alone. R&R: Are you becoming a businessman? ANDERSON: Oh, good heavens no! The business side of the business is something that I, in turn, pay other people to take responsibility for. However, I have to understand some as-pects of that job so that I can tell whether or not they are doing it correctly. I have to know their jobs, but I hate to do them. It would drive me crazy if I had to do my own accounting, my own manage-ment, my own promotion, and all that sort of business. R&R: How is the group's cur-rent relations with Chrysalis? ANDERSON: Well, our rela-tionship with the record com-pany is as old as the group itself. I'm sure that Chrysalis would be the first to agree that without the popularity of Jethro Tull they wouldn't have had as much going for them as a record company. They wouldn't have attained the degree of independence that they have. But, what's good for them is also good for us because it allows all of us to keep things within control of ourselves without having to rely on the big corporations to do the work for us. I think that's why, ultimately, we're successful. I, supposedly, pos-sess a modicum of talent and am able to get on with things myself without a record com-pany's advice or interference. We are in no way dictated to in terms of what we record, when we record, what the

album cover should be like, and so on and so forth. They are our own decisions and the record company, now that they have grown into a record company and are more inde-pendent of the big American and English companies, can also make their own decisions. It's more of a sort of family atmosphere where we try and keep the creative control with-in the little family that we are. I think that's ultimately better for us and ultimately better for the people who buy our records. We're not part of the business "mafia" sort of world that we could have been. We drew up our contracts sort of differently right at the beginn-ing. R&R: Do you find that a lot of people refer to you personally ,as Jethro Tull and actually think that that's your name? ANDERSON: It's about half and half. I think that people who are fans of the group, but are also fans of Elton John and Alice Cooper or whatever, maybe they don't read the album cover so carefully and maybe they refer to me as Jethro Tull. They see the guy standing in the front and jumping around and think that he is Jethro Tull. But, I think, the other half of the people know perfectly well that I am Ian Anderson, that Martin Barre is the guitarist, and so on and so forth, and that Jethro Tull is the collective name of the group. It's kind of half and half but it doesn't worry anybody. We all look upon it with amusement. All the members of the group get paid the same to play on the records and paid the same for going on stage every night so I

would think that would keep them happy.

R&R: A couple of years ago it was announced, or rumored, that Jethro Tull was going to come to an end and that you were going to pursue some sort of a solo career, and not necessarily in Rock music. What was that all about?

ANDERSON: Well, the group only laid off for a couple of months. That was a matter of having a holiday. Reports in the papers that Jethro Tull had quit were false. It wasn't that at all. We stopped for .a period of time only because up to that point we had been on the road for about two years almost continuously and all of us in the group required some time to sit down and organize our private lives. We suspend-ed all operations. For a short period of time we had nothing to do with each other. But, we were back at work within two months rehearsing the next album. I've never had any intent tomake a solo album. I'm only concerned that I'm able to fulfill my own musical inspirations within the context of Jethro Tull which I feel I am able to do. R&R: The group's following is loyal and huge on both a music industry level and among the public. However, of all your works, there is one which received a lot of contro-versy in it's reception as to quality and that is the "Pas-sion Play" album. What do you think of that album? ANDERSON: I find it a very intense album, but it gets back to that thing I was telling you about all the members of the group being involved. When that happens, it gets very involved on a complex musical plane. We got a lot of enjoy-ment out of that but at the same time one could say that

doesn't necessarily moan that other people are going to enjoy It, The album was still a numbor ono album in the U.S., but ultimately it might not have boon as satisfying to some people who don't have the same intense musical in-terest that we as a group have. I don't feel that it's a good album or a bad album. It's just certain kind of album that Jethro Tull has made. I would not make that album again but, I wouldnt make an album like "Minstrel In the Cutlery" again. I think one of the good things about being in Jethro Tull is that we're allowed to change with every record. Not only allow-ed, but expected to change and I am very grateful to be in that position. There are many other groups that the audience demands a very restricted type of musical format from. I would mention the Rolling Stones as an example. They would find it very difficult to experiment, musically, to the degree we do. The Rolling Stones don't sell any more records than we do, but they play straight down the line music that they think people want to hear. They're probab-ly the world's best rock and roll group but they'll never be the world's best musicians or the world's most innovative or exciting experimental sort of group. I think if it weren't for groups like Jethro Tull or, shall we say, Pink Floyd. who are constantly trying new di-rections, new sources of mu-sic, I don't think that rock music would have the name for innovation or excitement that it has.

R&R: When you put an album together and have control as to the direction, how much consideration do you give to the habits of radio program-mers? Was "Bungle in the Jungle" intended to be a com-mercially viable single?

ANDERSON: Well, that parti-cular album, "Warchild," con-tained many three or four minute songs. But that is only because they were written that way. They were all the group's version of some music that we were going to put to a film that we were considering making at the time. They were all that length because they were all that length. None of them were intended to be singles. We don't actually have a "singles policy." The only time we had a singles policy was in England during the first couple of years of the group's existence when we were required to refund our management with the money that they had lent us in the first place. We had had to become fairly popular fairly quickly so that we could pay off all the debts we had. There are reasons for every-thing. At this point, however. I would urge you to believe that there is no desperation on my part for creating obviously commercial product. What-ever I do (especially with the latest album) reflects what my taste is in music and if that meets with other people's ap-proval on a public front it only goes to show that my taste isn't really that different from most other people my age or even half of my age. Since I am somewhat of a "Peter Pan" figure at the age of twenty eight, I still sing songs and consider emotional situa-tions that are very relevent to people half of my age. I don't know whether or not that means I am sort of a "stunt-ed" human being (Ha). You know, whether or not I am stuck at post-puberty. I prefer to think of it as being con-

'ALBUM ORIENTED ROCK]

After questioning a healthy cross-section of the nation's AOR program and music directors, we've come up with some interesting facts relating to the programming of "oldies":

1. Most AOR stations' total music sound is between 40 and 600/0 "oldies."

2. AOR stations devote much less hard core research to "Oldies" programming than they do to the programming of "current" music. Criteria for airplay is often based on gut reaction and memory.

4. Most AOR programmers and their audiences do not consciously think of "oldies" as oldies in, say, the Top 40 sense, but rather as "standards."

Those AOR programmers, who've been in this kind of radio from the "underground" days to the "Progressive" days to now have a definite advantage over some of the newcomers when it comes to programming older material that there is little factual data on because they were there and have somewhat an "experience" research bank. Many of the newcomers use experience that they gathered during their years as listeners, which sometimes works well for them.

More and more, AOR programmers are researching local sales on these "standard" albums, and to their surprise, finding that quite often, very old albums are actually outselling so called current hits. This, of course, helps to justify the large chunk of airplay that this type of music gets on their stations.

In an effort to fill some of the vacuum in literature on the subject, R&R will be conducting a special survey of all of our reporting stations on old album airplay. In two weeks, in addition to our usual Album Airplay/Top 40 chart, we will publish an Old Album Airplay/Top 40 chart. It will take on the exact format of the normal chart, with cuts, etc.... Based upon its success and the feedback received, we will determine how often this survey will be conducted and the results printed.

Check it out in two weeks, and in the meantime, please make preparations for our survey.

AZTEC TWO STEP CROSBY/NASH

WIND ON THE WATER] David Graham I CROSBY NASH '

This duo comprised of Rex Fowler and Neal Shulman has been around for quite a few years, playing small clubs and college dates in the Northeast These programmers who remember their firts album will be delighted that they've recorded again. Their songs are well written and executed with perfect harmony, clean production, and meticulous musicianship. "It's Going on Saturday" is a great show-case for their talents. [RCA]

1;k6 II. 4 1 No •Ot

They flex their muscles in this one. That's apparent as soon as you hear "Minnie the Moocher." Plenty of great country bar room boogie in "Fast Train to Georgia" "One of These Nights" and "Cajun Baby." In addition to some tasty ballads, there's "The Shadow Knows" which is a novelty a la "Hat Rod Lincoln." Don't miss "Gypsy Fiddler" even if you don't like this group. [W13]

The sound of their voices together certainly needs no description. The magic is once again captured here. This is a delicate album of songs penned by both of these tremendously respected artists whose backgrounds alone make it important programming. It seems that they've met their new label debut with new creative energy. Full instrumentation from congas to electric fiddle. Nice orchestration, too. The entire album is choice stuff. "Take the Money" is sensational. EABci

BAKER GURVITZ ARMY

Baker Gurvitz Army 'Elysian Encounter'

The combination of Gurvitz getting more and more creative and Baker getting more and more disciplined works well for this new group on their second albu. "People" makes this fine collection start off with a bang. [Atlantic)

Suggested Albums STRAWBS FRANKIE MILLER

F EWBS

David Cousins and his very English ensemble have been tastefully explor-ing progressively "lighter" sounds within each album without sacrificing quality or creativity as displayed here with tunes such as "So Shall Our Love Die?" and "The Golden Salamander." "The Promised Land" is powerful and old Strawbs-ish. "Little Sleepy" boog-ies a bit. Lots of variety. Not a had album at all. [A&M]

BLACK OAK ARKANSAS

Songs like "Too Hot To Stop" "Bump and Grind" and "Fighting Cock" wit please their many fans. The rest ol this album may make the group some new ones. Listen to "Highway Pirate." [Atlantic]

THE

FRANKIE MILLER BAND

•

THE ROCK

Includes

A Fool in Love

All My Love toYou

This full bodied Rock and Roll group superbly backed by The Memphis Horns sometimes sounds like a cross between Chicago and AWB. No put down intended, they seem to have found a new flitch. Miller' voice is funky and effective and the back up vocalists used in the title track come off real nice. [Chrysalis]

EDGAR WINTER

THE EDGAR WINTER GROUP WITH RICK DERRINGER

including Cool Dance

Diamond Eyes/J A P (Just Another Punk) Chainsaw/People Music

The group continues to explore various musical directions. The album builds steam as it rolls along, covering a lot of ground. Somewhere in there, there's something for everybody. "Cool Dance" "Modern Love" and "Let's Do It Together" stand out. The finale, "Chainsaw" is another "Franken-

stein." [Blue Sky]

Chart Summary PINK FLOYDhad its turn

and enjoyed top airplay as programmers have a field day during the current superstar bonanza. The SPPJNGSTEEN frenzy has gotten back to normal proportions as the al-bum had another sensational week on the turntables. Be-lieve it or not, STARSHIP has been slowly picking up airplay over the past three weeks. TULL held strong. RONSTADT came on like gangbusters. ALLMANS, ROD and MAC all had a strong week. HARRI-SON grew. TUCKER held on. C/N was the week's highest debut. FOGELBERG did ex-tremely well. EAGLES and GF1LS maintained. BONNIE spread and grew. WRIGHT is sticking around. DENVER de-buted. FOGERTY picked up a bit. ARS came on strong again. AUGER had a good week. EDGE and FOGHAT picked up stations and air-play. STRA WBS, SAYER and T of P all debuted impressive-ly. AEROSMITH refuses to die. FOCUS gathered more play. CODY and CLIFF debuted. LE WIS bounced back on the chart. MILLER debuted.NIGEL came out in the middle of the report but debuted to good reaction and should show up very well next week. HEAD EAST almost made the chart and GINO VANELLI picked up a lot of strong airplay and requests, just missing out, too. ELTON dropped off the chart this week. AEROSMITH is the chart veteran.

TOOTS & THE MAYTALS

There's a lot of bullshit reggae floating around out there lately. Don't let t cloud your vision. This is the real stuff. "Funky Kingston" rocks good and "Louie Louie" is a memory revisit-ed via Jamaica. [Island]

DAVE MASON

DAVE MASON SPLIT COCONUT

Two Guitar Lovers She's A Friend/You Can Lose It

Give Me A Reason Why/Long Lost Friend

There is very little that Mason does not do well. This new collection features his distinguishable sound with an island flavor and features perform-ances by Crosby, Nash, and The Manhattan Transfer. [Columbia]

Ron Reynolds at KNBR put it right on. It wouldn't be surprising if many more programmers see fit to play it in the weeks to come.

Rudy Maugeri, KFI, reports very heavy phone action on the Bing Crosby record "That's What Life Is All About."

Charlie Allan WGN, and Gene Christie WSB both report playing the new Robert Goulet record. It's on Artists of America (the label that brought you Paul Delicato). Title is "Someone To Give My Love To."

As reflected in the graph section, the "Heat Wave" side of the Linda Ronstadt record has really taken off this past week. "Love Is A Rose" still continues to receive good play with many adult radio programmers.

After a slow start, Bobby Vinton picking up some action at WFIR and WEMP.

John Denver and Olivia Newton-John team up for a tune on Denver's lsttest album. Cut is "Fly Away."

corned with perennial types of questions rather than just re-lating to my own environment. I don't sing just about the things that I do. I don't sing about songs about subjects with sociological, political, or even economic issues. Things that I was aware of even I was very young. I hope that I continue to have that aware-ness of things that relate to people of all different ages. I am not just singing to people who were our fans when we were younger and are still our fans now and will still be our fans ten years from now. If that were the case, we would finally wind up playing Las Vegas in nightclubs to people who used to be our fans, who've grown up and have two kids, who've left home and got married, just like Elvis Presley does. I would rather be playing in Madison Square Garden to the few of our older fans who would want to go to Madison Square Garden and to a lot of younger fans are into going to Madison Square Garden because I'll still be going to Madison Square Gar-den playing concerts when I am twenty years older than I am now. That's my own per-sonal goal, if you like, that I continue to play concerts on the exciting and immediate level that I am able to do' so now. However, I would never wish to compromise what I do musically to attain those par-ticular ends. I just have a feeling that my taste isn't so divergent from that of other peoples'. I feel that it will all happen naturally. R&R: Do you find that many people still attach super-human qualities to rock stars. Do they do that to you? How do you really see yourself? ANDERSON: I am basically a very simple person. The "boy next door" sort of figure who happens to know a few more chords on the guitar than you do. I may be possessed with a certain ability, a certain mild kind of talent, but I don't do something that is so far be-yond the ability of most people to do that they mustn't consid-er it. One of the useful things about being a musician in the rock kind of context is that you inspire a lot of other people to also get involved with music. The only reason people attach those qualities you mentioned to rock stars is to build the image of the star even higher so that it makes the stardom thing even more attractive to relate to. They do it more for themselves than for the star. It makes it easier to emulate that sort of lifestyle. It's really wishful thinking, however. When you come down to it, really, there's a very thin veneer of stardom. The thin veneer of glitter or the latest European fashions or stack-heeled shoes or what have you. You know, the fash-ionable things in rock music are very surface. Only skin deep. Underneath all that, hopefully, are very human qualities and that is what should come out in one's music.

"YESSONGS" IN THE MOVIES "Yessongs" the album becomes "Yessongs" the film. The group Yes.

featuring Rick Wakeman,has taken the cream of their Atlantic album and recorded the songs on camera to create a vital piece of theatre. This is not a typical bit of concert-filming, in the tradition of many concert television shows. The camera angles are tight, inventive and revealing of the Yes members' moods. The entire film is kept interesting by the use of several film techniques, such as slow motion, stop action and reverse image. Visuals take the form of graphic animation and scenic film clips, and these are used selectively throughout the concert... thus they enhance rather than detract.

The movie opens with the design of the "Yessongs" album cover conceived in animation. Instrumental music swells in the background and moves smoothly to the concert, segueing into "Your Move" and "All Good People." The concert was well-produced and Yes' professionalism transfers excellently to film. Editing during such pieces as "Rounda-bout," with its frenetic mood, is consistent with the music. It's the touches in direction of the camera and in final editing that makes "Yessongs" in film even more exciting than on record.

Direct From Duncan

Just a reminder the big CMA convention is just a couple weeks away. I'm

really anxious to get to all the educational and informative meetings that have

become so much a part of the annual convention. (Now you and I know it's just a

big old party, but my boss doesn't. I figure the above mention will help justify my

going.) We'll see you there.

KHOS Program Director, TO MMY WRIGHT, and his wife, Dolly, have

become the proud parents of a 7 pound, 5 1/7 ounce baby girl. To be named

KELIANNE Our congrats to Tommy and his wife on their first child. [Now we all

know what the Wrights did during the evenings when Bakersfield closed down.] Hot rumor on the streets in Chicago: W M) will be changing their format to

Black Disco. I called CRAIG SCOTT at the station, to find out what day he was

coming to the CMA Convention and he answered the phone. "Say Baby.get down

and get funky. Right on, Right on, let's boogie tonight. Give me five and that's no

jive." He also said he's making plans to go to the Black Music Caucus the week

of the Country convention. [All kidding aside, the story about their format change

is lust a rumor and nothing else. Also, Craig will he joining us in Nashville and

has promised to give us all a preview of his forthcoming album: "Craig Scott

Sings The Hits Of Rufus Thomas.")

The final balloting for the CMA's "D.J. of The Year" Awards is under way. The winners will be announced during the CMA's 17th Anniversary Banquet and

Show, October 17 in Nashville. The finalists are:

CATEGORY 1: [Under 50,000 population]

BILLY DIL WORTH — WLET, Toccoa, Georgia HIRAM RIGSBY — KDHL, Faribault, Minnesota SKIP NELSON — KWMT, Fort Dodge, Iowa CAL O WENS — WLAQ, Rome, Georgia RAMBLIN' LOU SCHRIVER — WXRL, Lancaster, New York

CATEGORY 2: [50,000 to 500,000 population]

BILLY C. COLE — WHO, Des Moines, Iowa TOM MILLER — WBT, Charlotte, North Carolina MIKE OATMAN — KFDL Wichita, Kansas LEE RANSON — WXCL, Peoria, Illinois BUDDY RAVE — W WVA, Wheeling, West Virginia TOM "Cat" REEDER — WDON, Wheaton, Maryland DAVE STONE — KPIK, Colorado Springs, Colorado

CATEGORY 3: [Over 500,000 population] LES ACREE — W MC, Memphis Tennessee DEANO DAY — WDEE, Detriot, Michigan DON DAY — WBAP, Fort Worth, Texas RALPH EMERY — WSM, Nashville, Tennessee HAIRL HENSLEY — WSM, Nashville, Tennessee LARRY SCOTT — KLAC, Los Angeles SKEETS YANEY — KSTL, St. Louis, Missouri

The earlier rumor about KQV in Pittsburgh going Country has turned out to

be false. The station will be going to an All-News format very soon. WEEP is now

set to go all talk October 13... I'm sure you've heard by now, but in case you

haven't, DAVE DONAHUE has joined KHAK in Cedar Rapids, Iowa as Operations

Manager. He called last week to let me know of his new position and to mention

he is in need of some people. [See the classified section for details]... BOB BERRY

is leaving W WVA, Wheeling, West Virginia, to join WAIR, Morgantown, W. Va.,

as Program Director. W WVA is looking for a replacement for Berry... TOM MCCALL is leaving WVOL Jacksonville, Florid, to take on the P.D. job at KYAL

in Plaine, Texas, a community on the outskirts of Dallas... HAL SMITH has left W WOK to get into the real estate business. RON GATAR will take over as music

director for the Miami station... WHK, Cleveland has hired "Diamond" JIM BRADY from WLYV, Fort Wayne, Indiana to do afternoons... BOB BUTLER,

former Operations Director of KHOS, Tucson is now with KM. Phoenix to do

mornings to replace CLIFF HAYNES, who has gone to KNE W. By the way, KM is

celebrating their 3rd year as a Country station October 2... KLAC, Los Angeles is' also celebrating an anniversary. This is their fifth year programming Country

music. From our "OOPS, I SHOULD HAVE DONE THAT AGAIN" Department: Give

a listen to the ABC/Dot release on HANK THO MPSON, "Too Young." The time

on the record Is listed at 2:19, but at the speed he sings it, the true time is 2:06. It is an obvious mastering mistake and it sounds like Thompson is auditioning for

the Mickey Mouse Club... Another ABC/Dot record, FREDDY FENDER's "Before The Next Teardrop Falls" is also making the news. The Music Operators of

America recently voted it as Jukebox Record of The Year and Fender as Jukebox

Artist of The Year. FRANK MULL has joined Playboy Records to do National promotion... You

may notice a few street changes from Nashville. It's not that everyone is moving,

but rather an ordinance passed by the Metro Council has changed the street names. Under the plan, what is now Grand Avenue from 17th to 16th Avenue

becomes Music Square East; 17th Avenue from Division to Grand becomes Music

Square West. Sigler Street is Music Circle North and Hawkins Street is Music

Circle South. Services needed: RACE, Riverside, California needs all country product...

KHIL, Wilcox, Arizona needs all country product. Send it to DARRELL WILSON,

Music Director, P.O. Box 1117, Wilcox, 65643. A reminder to all reporters: If you are planning to be in Nashville during the

convention the week of October 13, please make sure you leave your report with

someone to give to us. Your cooperation is appreciated.

A quote from the L.A. Times will close this week's column: "Did you ever

notice how Matt Dillon, Festus, Doc and Newley always sat in the Long Branch

saloon with no women around them? That's the real reason why CBS cancelled

"Gunsmoke" after 20 years. It took them that long to find out the Long Branch

was a gay bar." As I always say, "You don't have to be happy to be gay."...

as.

Playboy recording artist BARBI BENTON was interviewed by KMPS DJ Art Lund in Seattle. Barbi was in Seattle to help celebrate KMPS' "modern country" format, and to act as official hostess and mascot for the station.

INSIDE NASHVILLE

WHISPERS: "How many lady stars are currently anticipating new family members? More than one in Nash-ville?"... "Who's missing from the final CMA award nominations? Start with former winners CASH, PRIDE and RICH"... "Where did they find the old masters on RONNIE MILSAP and FREDDY FENDER?"... "Like a magnet. Nashville is drawing the best minds working in all phases of entertainment; motion pictures, prose writing, and all styles of music. Many should be interested in the individuals respons-ible for the creation and presentation; and in their stories or progress and success." TOM T. HALL said it in connection with the TV talk show pilot

taped last month in music city... HANK WILLIAMS, JR. said it: "I don't exactly look like I used to look. There is a metal plate where my forehead was. My front teeth are gone, so I won't be back in the studio for a few months. But I'll definitely be back singing. I though of only tow people. lying down there at the foot of that mountain. Me and God! Maybe that's selfish, but that's the way it was. I'm lucky to be alive and very grateful. But ain't that a hell of a way to get publicity?" Those are the words Hank shared with Nashville columnist Bill Hance...

DATELINES: JOE CATES productions of NEW YORK will again produce the CMA awards TV special with WALTER C. MILLER and CHET HAGAN as co-producers. CMA awards show chairman is IRVING WAUGH, WSM... HANK SNO W will join his son REV. JIMMY RODGERS SNO W during Jim-my's 15 day tour of EUROPE and the HOI.Y LAND. MERLE KILGORE and Sill PHILLIPS are among the Nashville contingent on the trip. Jimmy hopes to have an audience with the POPE in ROME, also EGYPTIAN President SADAT and KING HUSSEIN Of JOR-DAN... Songwriter RON PETERSON brought Federal suit against CON WAY TWITTY, his T'WITTY BIRD MUSIC. and MCA Records which alleges that Conway's recording of "Touch The Hand" infringes on the song's original copyright... Former "Hit Parade" sing-ing star SNOOKY LANSON will per-form at the ST. THOMAS HOSPTTAL's Pink Auxilary sponsored "Salute the MI-American Men" fashion show next Tuesday night [7th). BIFF COLLIE will M C.... Actor GLEN CORBETT will star in the PIERRE OPPENHEIMER-pro-duced movie "Girl In Nashville," which started filming last Wednesday. Songs and music for the picture were penned by RORY BURKE, JOHNNY WILSON and GENE DOBBINS. Local performers have been cast in numin-ous roles... "Music Row" is no longer "Music Row." Now it's called "Music Square" least, west and south)..

MARGO SMITH "Margo Smith" [20th]

Some excellent arrangements through-out, mixed with the unique voice of this newcomer to the Country music field, make this album worth airplay. MARGO SMITH is a very good writer and you'll have a chance to hear her work on this LP. She wrote seven out of the ten cuts. Singles "There I've Said It" and "Paper Lovin" are featured. Best other cuts are "An Old Memory Got In My Eye," one of the two Foster-Rice songs on the album, and "One Sided Affair." Also, "I Don't Think So" is good. For a cute novelty song try "Tennessee Yodelers."

TAMMY WYNETTE

I STILL BELIEVE IN FAIRY TALES

including: The Man Frcim Bowling Green

Ill Take What You Can Give Me (When You Can)

The Bottle

Dallas

I Still Believe In Fairy Tales

TAMMY WYNETTE I Still Believe In Fairytales [Epic] "The First Lady of Country Music"

proves once again why she is Just that. Some fine mellow country music with the traditional genius production of BILLY SHERRILL. Some definite poten-tial singles. Best choices are "Your Memory's Gone To Rest," a soulful, somewhat haunting, tale of lost love and "The Man From Bowling Green," another story-song with a good mel-ody. Other strong material: "Dallas," "The Bottle," and "I Did My Best [To Fall In Love Last Night]." The single "Fairytales" is also featured.

POP NOTES BY MIKE KASABO

It appears that John Denver is the proud owner of his very first two-sided smash. "Calypso" and "I'm Sorry" are firmly lodged in the number one spot on R&R's Pop/40.

There has been some concern with a number of program-mers about the Neil Sedaka record. Specifically, his using the word "bitch." While I find it hard to believe any adult would be upset with hearing a soft-core word like bitch, it is possible to eliminate the reference via edit. Bonnie Smith, music lady at WMAL faced the problem of having to "splice it out, or don't play it." Along with a station production man, they came up with a masterful edit that replaces "bitch" with a totally excepted word.. ."woman." If you'd like to hear just how good WMAL's altered version sounds, let me know and I'll pass it along to Bonnie, who I'm sure will send along a copy.

Now that Freddy Fender is a hot property, he finds himself with two releases on two different labels at the same time. GRT released an old side "Since I Met You Baby" barely two weeks ago. Last week, ABC, put out "Secret Love." We've noted reaction to both records. Most programmers seems to favor, at this point, "Secret Love."

Cilia Black last scored ten years ago on Capitol with "You're My World." Her new release on Private Stock is showing some activity at WBAL and KNX-FM. Song is called

"I'll Take A Tango." Immediate action at the Pop level on the Neil Sedaka album

cut "Breaking Up Is Hard To Do" is reflected under New & Active.

Amazing how many programmers have commented on playing the Jefferson Starship record. While it zooms up the Pop/40, people have stated: "...I never thought I'd play one of their records on my station, plus really dig it."

We've seen many good novelty records come across the board this year. Now get ready for another. Larry Groce has a
