Publisher's Page THE GREATNESS OF HUMILITY

A very positive aura of love for one's fellow man filled the room at the Al Jefferson Testimonial Dinner held recently in the Na-tion's Capitol. All of the participants dedicated the entire evening to an un-broken outpouring of praise for Baltimore-Washington's own 35-year radio/record industry veteran upon the bittersweet occasion of his retirement. And what a night it was!

The grand master of ceremo-nies, Jack "The Rapper" Gib-son, was in rare form as he carried the evening's festi-vities along at a smooth-as-velvet pace. Of course, the Rapper managed to throw the honoree a few of his own distinctive curves. But it was all in the spirit of camaraderie born of decades of working together as pio-neers in black radio. That the Al Jefferson Tes-

timonial was well attended by the radio and record industry is a classic under-statement documented by the

photo highlights inside this issue. Everybody was there and, to be sure, those who were not had very good rea-sons and sent the requisite telegrams. Special kudos are in order

for the Testimonial Commit-tee/Chairpersons who coordi-nated this labor of love so flawlessly: Linda Gray, Cathy Hughes, Zeke Zanders, Ruben Rodriguez, Vida Smith, Wanda Hayes, Joyce Heider and all those who worked with them toward its suc-cess. The most memorable moment

of a truly outstanding eve-ning, however, came as for-mer protoges and colleagues alike spoke eloquently and with heartfelt sincerity of Al Jefferson the teacher... the communicator.., the creator. But most of all, they spoke of the humility of the man. No one could ever remember having heard "Mr. J." raise his voice even during the trying times of his life -- including his many illnesses and those of

his beloved wife. Kenny Gamble aptly summarized these sentiments when he said that what he would most like to take from the affair was simple, "the humility of Al Jefferson." Ditto, Kenny. Too often in

the peaks and valleys of this crazy business of ours, we succumb either to the highs of ego-tripping or the depths of despair. But our special mentor has by his own example demonstrated to all of us the most basic lesson of survival in this industry, as in life itself: that we should not take ourselves or our problems too seriously. From humility there comes real strength - and ultimately, the great-ness embodied in a man of Al Jefferson's caliber. So while we say a reluc-

tant farewell to Al as he gracefully bows out from active participation in the industry, we know that his legacy will always be there to guide and inspire. God bless...

Sidney Miller, Publisher BLACK RADIO EXCLUSIVE 6353 Hollywood Blvd. Hollywood, CA 90028

Re: "loose Ends"

Dear Sidney:

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Black Radio programmers for giving "Loose Ends" the rotation it deserves.

It's not very often that a new act tops the Black music chart in BRE, Cashbox, Billboard and %R. The fact that the group is from England reinforces the belief that Black music is universal.

Black Radio, Jheryl Busby and the MCA promotion staff validated my decision to sign the group.

Thanks again!

Respectfully yours,

A MESSAGE FROM T. C. THOMPKINS

Throughout the unsettling events of the last weeks, I was honored to learn just how many true friends I had in radio. I greatly appre-ciate and will always remem-ber the support that has been shown to me during this transition in my career. I was fortunate enough to

enjoy some very outstanding and productive years with Epic Records--made possible in no small part by your contributions. The circumstances, how-

ever, have now allowed me to dedicate my time to pursuing another endeavor which hap-pens to be something I have been interested in for quite some time. I am pleased to announce

that I have formed two com-panies: R. P. Consulting, which is now working with Sade and Top Cat Music, which presently has four acts signed. The company is also negotiating with major labels to secure a distribu-tion deal. I am looking forward to

putting my first Top Cat record on the streets soon. So I'll be seeing you back at radio! Again, thanks for your

support through the years. And P.S., I'm doing just fine.

The event was co-sponsored by Coca-Cola and M&M Products in conjunction with Essence's 15th Anniver-sary celebration. Among those honored was

Katherine Jackson who was cited for her "nurturing spirit" as the mother of a family of celebrated perfor-mers. All of the Jackson clan turned out in force to share in the tribute to their mother, with the exception of Michael and Jermaine who were out of the country. Daughters Rebbie, LaToya

and Janet, as well as Tito and Carol, Jackie and Enid

were all on hand for the Essence event. The award, a beautiful

RAP RECORD AIDS MISSING CHILDREN

EFFORT

Baton Rouge: In an effort to raise the consciousness of young people about the dan-gers of child abduction, a new record produced by two Baton Rouge-based deejays, collectively known as "Real-ity," has debuted on Royal Shield Records. Aptly titled "Missing

Kids" and featuring the pop-ular rap format, the record generated more than 200 phone calls from young lis-teners when it received ini-tial airplay on local sta-tion WTKL. In subsequent weeks, national interest and response to the vital mes-sage of the record have continued to build. According to Homer J.

Sheeler, President of Royal Shield, 25 percent of the profits from the sale of the record will be donated to Childkeyppers International, one of the most active child recovery organizations in the country. A poster with photos of 15 missing child-ren will be included in the commercial package and pro-motional copies will be dis-tributed to Chilkeyppers chapters throughout the country.

JOAN LOGUE-HENRY.

V.P. CORPORATE. UNITY

BROADCASTING:

COMMUNICATIONS

PROVIDES

OPPORTUNITY FOR

CIVIC ACTION

It is most apt that Joan Logue-Henry should be employed by a company known as Unity Broadcasting Net-work. As the corporate vice pre-

sident of public relations,

Logue-Henry is fulfilling a role she believes crucial, vital to the survival and advancement of black people in this country. "Having done some advance

p.r. work for political can-didates," she said recently, "it became apparent to me how important the media is and the power it can have over our lives. "My experiences have also

shown me how important ra-dio is to black people. "Although churches and

community newspapers remain an important source of in-formation about local e-vents," she continued, "you put something on radio and it can be heard all over in seconds, inform people on either side of the country. "With black people having

limited access to televi-sion," she further said, "radio is one of our best tools to get information to a large number of black people. No other medium can do that." For the last nine plus

years, Logue-Henry has been employed at Unity, coming to the company first as the director of public relations for the National Black Net-work (NBN). NBN serves more than 100

affiliates nationwide with potential to reach 75% of the country's black popula-tion. It is but one of Uni-

ty's multi-media properties and operations. The job grew, and eventu-

ally she began to handle public relations and promo-tion projects for special projects. She became responsible for

developing the network's image in the press, formula-ting public information strategies, corporate rela-tions and other promotional activi ty. In her current position,

which she's held for the past two years, Logue-Henry has added to her plethora of responsibilities keeping tabs on important legisla-tion pertaining to the broadcast industry and admi-nistrative proceedings of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). She's perhaps best known

for her co-founding of the World Institute of Black Communications, Inc., Uni-ty's non-profit organization established in 1978 to broaden opportunities in the communications industry for Afro-Americans. The most visible program

sponsored by WIBC is the annual CEBA Awards, which honors those members of the marketing and advertising industry who have shown in-novation and excellence in communicating messages to the large consumer audience that is black America.

Logue-Henry's background is as diverse as the many hats she now wears at Unity. In addition to working as

sales consultant for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, she was an educator and adminis-trative intern with the Yon-kers Board of Education. If that's not enough, she

was also statewide coordina-tor of the women's division for the Howard Samuels for Governor campaign. She per-formed advance publicity work on the presidential campaign by Democratic Sen. Morris Udall. In keeping with her thirst

to contribute to the commu-nity, Logue-Henry has also served as a board member of the Westchester Civil Liber-ties Union and the Nigerian-American Society. She's al-so been a New York State delegate to the convention of the National Women's Po-litical Caucus and a dele-gate to the White House Conference on Small Business. Commenting on how her cur-

of your company and the people it serves is indeed an important job."

_ THE POINTER SISTERS: IN "CONTACT" AND ON TOP

by Gary Jackson

"The cream always rises to the top." That's an axiom that has held true in many phases of life - but nowhere does it ring louder or clearer than with the music industry and one group of superb vocalists in particu-lar - The Pointer Sisters: Ruth, Anita and June. Since 1973, when the Pointers re-leased their first album, they have experienced the usual peaks and valleys that accompany any music career. But if you can point to one circumstance that literally forced the hands of fate to cause their career to truly skyrocket, then that has to be the musical "contact" of the Pointer Sisters and their exclusive producer since 1978, Richard Perry. "Contact" just so happens

to be the name of the Poin-ter Sisters' newest album on the RCA label -- following the triple-platinum success of 1984's "Break Out," which saw the Pointers gather armsful of awards and acco-lades. For instance: "Break Out"

contained four Top-Ten hits, including "Jump (For My Love)," "Automatic," and two singles that had new life breathed into them: "I'm So Excited," a semi-hit several years ago that became a smash in 1984, and "Neutron Dance," a song that wasn't projected to make any kind of noise until it became the anthem for Eddie Murphy's blockbuster movie, "Beverly Hills Cop." Add to those songs a solid black radio hit called "I Need You," and you have one of the strong-est sides ever committed to vinyl. Recognition in the music

industry was quite over-whelming as the Pointers walked away with Grammys for Best Vocals by a Pop Group ("Jump") and Best Vocal Ar-rangement ("Automatic"). The Sisters also copped top honors for Best Black Video Group and Best Black Recor-ding Group at the American Music Awards at the begin-ning of 1985. To get back to the pivotal

point of the Pointer Sis-ters' success story, Richard Perry is perhaps the most natural producer to work with such a group since George Martin produced all of those smash albums by one highly acknowledged super-group - the Beatles. A com-plete empathy with the para-

POINTERS, PERRY AND PLATINU M: RUTH, ANITA AND JUNE POINTER CELEBRATE SUCCESSFUL COLLABORATION WITH RICHARD PERRY.

meters of a group is needed for the chemistry to come together. Fortunately, Richard Perry has, in the Pointer Sisters, a group whose vocal flexibility knows no boundaries. Their highly charged vocals add excitement to even the most mundane arrangements. A background steeped in

the rich tradition of gospel music -- compliments of their father, the late Rev-erend Elton Pointer --helped to empower the Poin-ter Sisters to tackle any musical assignment fearless-ly. Their father tried to distract the Sisters from blues and jazz: 'the devil's music.' Only thing that kept the Reverend from succeeding was the fact that he picked a bad (from the church's point of view) location to have children, that is, the music-rich environs of the Bay Area of Oakland, San Francisco and Berkeley, Ca-lifornia. The Bay Area had a cornu-

copia of groups such as Tower of Power, the Jeffer-son Airplane, Santana, the Grateful Dead, Elvin Bishop and more, all of whom played at the now legendary Fill-more West. Most of these groups had heard of the vocal prowess of the Pointer Sisters and often used them as backup vocalists for both live and studio sessions. It was only a matter of time before someone would commit the Pointer Sisters to vi-nyl, and that came in 1973. Blue Thumb Records signed

the group and released a self-titled album to an ava-lanche of accolades that touted the group as the best thing to happen to vocals since Edison invented the phonograph. Those claims were substantiated by the fact that the first two Pointer Sisters albums went gold and one of the songs, "Fairy Tale," from the se-cond album, "That's A Plen-ty," won a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Tune. The song, incidentally, was written by Anita and Bonnie Pointer, thus showing that the Sisters had a flair with the pen, too. The direction of music

favored by the Pointers by the Blue Thumb producers gravitated primarily toward jazz and scat vocal forms, with a slight dip into coun-try. After several years of the same thing, the Pointer Sisters found themselves on a musical treadmill going nowhere. Their forays into nostalgia continued to im-press a devoted, but small, listenership that was not enough to support four sis-ters who also had their own families to feed and clothe. The breaking point came in 1978 when Bonnie split from the group to try her hand at a solo career. 1978 was also the fortui-

tous year when the Three P's came together: Perry, Poin-ters and Planet Records. The Pointers were the first group signed to the label, which has since been ab-sorbed by RCA. Such a pheno-

menally successful marriage as that between Richard Per-ry and the Pointers could only have been made in music heaven. Since that time, the Poin-

ters have enjoyed critical and popular acclaim with such hits as "Fire," "Happi-ness," "He's So Shy," and "Slow Hand." Richard Perry has wisely selected material for the Pointer Sisters from a diverse group of songwri-ters, including Bruce Springsteen, James Ingram, Barry Mann & Cynthia Well and an assortment of newer talent such as Richard Page, Andy Goldmark, Steve George and others, thus insuring a consistently fresh approach with each album and song. An important key to

Richard Perry's production success is his intuitive ability to keep up with the latest trends in music, from the newest in technological equipment to what's happen-ing on the streets. He has also wisely retained the gospel tradition that star-ted the Pointer Sisters on the road to success. Equally significant is Perry's deci-sion to spread the lead vocal chores evenly through-out the album -- assigning three songs apiece to Ruth, Anita and June. Thus, "Con-tact" is simply an extension of what got the Pointers to the top and what will keep them there. "Contact" picks right up

where "Break Out" left off. "Twist My Arm" rocks right out of the box with searing vocals by Anita and a blis-tering intro by guitarist Howie Rice. A funky bottom keeps the street sound in-tact and vital. "Hey You" is one of the Pointer Sisters' few forays into what can be considered social commen-tary. For example: "Don't you see the lonely children/ beggin' but nobody sees/Hey you/Tell me/What's been going on." "Pound, Pound, Pound" is a

teasingly playful cut sung by June, who wants more than a call on the phone. "Back In My Arms" is a powerful vocal rendition by Ruth, with strong production throughout. "Burn Down the Night" features raunchy vo-cals by Anita, complemented by a smoking sax solo. "Bodies and Souls" reflects the tempo of the streets with its 'scratch' intro that flows smoothly into a semi-calypso feel. It must

PALO ALTOITBA RECORDS PREPARE HOLIDAY RELEASES: SIGN WITH FOREIGN TERRITORIES

It is prudent to prepare for the high holidays in early winter during the searing heat of late summer.

That's exactly what Palo Alto/Tba Records is doing, according to label president Dr. Herb Wong. The executive recently

completed recording volume II of his tentatively titled "More Mistletoe Magic," fea-turing artists such as Dianne Reeves performing "Christmas Waltz." Also planned are Christmas improv entries by artists such as Chico Freeman, McCoy Tyner, Phil Woods, and vocal group Rare Silk which features the stylings of Shelia Jordon, Bobbe Norris with Larry Dun-lap. Wong noted that "This is

the first time we have four vocal attractions" on one LP. Last year, Volume I of the

holiday album featured

singer Meredith d' Ambrosia accompanied by pianist Hank Jones. Volume I also featured the

Elvin Jones Quintet, Free Flight, the Larry Vuckovich Sextet, the Full Faith and Credit Big Band, the Richie Cole Quintet, the Mal Wal-dron Quartet and the Les de Merle Sextet. The holiday LPs are the

outgrowth of Wong's annual six-hour Christmas special on KJAZ-FM in San Francisco, where he has been an air personality for nearly 20 years. "After the first album, we

received a lot of mail re-questing additional, fresh material," he said, adding, "With this volume, we're

seeking different musical environments and interpre-tive styles." The LP and cassette will

carry an $8.98 suggested list.

In other news from the la-bel, Palo Alto/Tba also has signed exclusive distribu-tion pacts for Canada, Mexi-co and the Philippines, and has also renewed an arrange-ment in Japan. The label's director of

sales, Don Lupo, commenting on the pacts, said that the agreements are part of an aggressive effort to strengthen international distribution this year based on the company's strong sales performances with pro-duct by George Howard, May-nard Ferguson, Rare Silk, David Diggs, McCoy Tyner and Victor Feldman's Generation Band. Bobby Weiss and his One

World of Music company, Palo Alto's exclusive interna-tional representative, arranged the licensing pacts.

Starting Aug. 1, the new Canadian distributor is A&M Records Canada Ltd. The com-pany's president, Gerry la Coursiere, signed the deal with PA for manufacturing and distribution of LPs, cassettes and compact discs when they become available for the company later this year. That same day is the start

of a renewed Japanese agree-ment with Victor Music In-ternational, a division of Japan Victor Co. The same

deal applies for this terri-tory. Two deals that have just

gone into effect are with Discos Real in Mexico and Ivory Records Corp. in the Philippines. Mupo said that pacts in

Mexico and the Philippines mark the first time such agreements have been entered in those territories. Other territories current-

ly selling PA product in-clude Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand, Australia, Ma-nila, Malaysia, Thailand, the UK and in Europe. Under negotiation current-

ly are licensing agreements with Israel, Nigeria, and Ghana.

be a killer when performed live because of its highly festive mood. The title cut, "Contact,"

features staccato background vocals that propel Ruth's husky vocals to raging heights of urgency. Then there's the first single release, "Dare Me." It com-bines pop sensibilities with a streetwise funk bottom. It's a strong and straight-forward song sung with emo-tional toughness by June (Baby Sister.) A very power-ful song. Wrapping up "Con-tact" is "Freedom," a step away from the rollicking fun that permeates the album.

It's a somber tune that pleads for a lover's atten-tion. A simple yet effective statement on the need for communication in a relation-ship. The Pointer Sisters have

successfully followed one powerful album ("Break Out") with another equally power-ful one ("Contact"). Surely, there must lie more Grammy and American Music awards in the future for the Pointer Sisters and Richard Perry - a winning combination that is certainly in "contact" with contemporary musical tastes and trends -- and on top because of it.

Dallas/Ft. Worth KKDA 1.1 1.2 KKDA/FM 7.8 7.4 KNOK 2.5 3.0

KKDA/FM is tied with the 50,000 watter WBAP who jumped almost a full share to the #2 position overall.

Detroit WCHB WGPR WHYT WJLB WJZZ WQBH 1.3 .9

WJLB is the story here: #2 in the miiketplace behind WJR with big jumps in teens although rocker WHYT leads in teens overall. Another strong show is the black FM-er WGPR with strong gains in men, women and teens.

V-103 maintains rating show-ing a continuing drop off in teens. Unfortunately, WEBB's renovations did not have a lasting effect and they're back down to almost their Fall ratings.

New Orleans WYLD 1.6 3.0 WYLD/FM 16.7 16.8

Continuous dominance by this Hutchinson owned station as the #1 lead runner overall is documented with heavier demos in adult men.

Northeast Report CHOCOLATE CITY'S GO-GO MUSIC...

impresario and TTED records president MAXX KIDD (see photo) is busier than ever these days producing, mana-ging, directing and promul-gating the highly publicized next domestic music industry craze - Go-Go Music!!

Following a recent fact-finding trip to Go-Go City, preceded by hours of re-searching the black sub-culture dance music and two days observing Kidd and his army of workers, bands per-forming, followers and en-thusiasts in action, it ap-pears there ain't no stop-pin' the Go-Go movement in sight. All of the ingre-dients of success are in place and indicate that Go-Go Music is destined for worldwide fame and fortune. "I believe black music is

spiritual. That's why Go-Go Music is happening—, and blacks that have refused to take part in it thus far will be more than glad to do so once it becomes stylish by way of Mr. Charlie bring-ing it through his way with his incredible marketing arms and advertising strength and dollars. In Europe, Go-Go is already big and it's only a matter of time before it takes over here," Kidd said. The release of "Good to

Go," an Island Trading Com-pany feature film scheduled for a Sept. 1 national de-but, features TTED Go-Go Bands: Chuck Brown and the Soul Searchers, Experience Unlimited (EU), Redds and The Boys (see photo), and Trouble Funk. The film pro-mises to capture the essence of what makes Go-Go such a phenomenon with its fans - from eight to fifty. ART GARFUNKEL portrays a local reporter who blames Go-Go music for a teen's murder and rape. Later, he realizes his mistake and becomes an advocate for the Go-Go move-ment. Other labelmates not in

the movie include: MASS EX-TENSION, YUGGIE (the only

b\, Ralph Brown

female Go-Go group), and HOT, COLD SWEAT. While in Go-Go City, I

observed literally thousands of pre-teens, teens and young adults at several clubs one evening that book Go-Go acts. I must say it was a little scary at first to see so many people packed

in each club, dancing to the Go-Go beat, as though they were mesmerized by the mul-ti-percussive, polyrhythmic funk, cowbells and staccato-jabbing r8b horn lines. Unlike the Hip-Hop move-

ment (where many major la-bels exercised a wait-and-see posture before getting

involved with rap music), the Go-Go movement has at-tracted major label interest - although the music has not become a national phenomenon to date. Shortly after Island Records chief Chris Blackwell signed seven TTED acts to Atlantic (distribu-tors of Island and its inde-pendent offshoot, 4th & Broadway Records) and an-nounced plans to film a Go-Go movie, several major la-bels jumped on the Go-Go bandwagon and signed other Go-Go artists right out of Chocolate City. With millions of dollars

invested to date in Go-Go music, perhaps as the old Brook Benton hit suggests, 'it's just a matter of time' before Go-Go starts bustire loose nationally and becomes a commercial success. I would not want to bet against Go-Go becoming the next dance music craze. What about you black deejays and retailers? At press time, MAXX KIDD

stated: "TTED Records will not be distributed by Island Records as originally planned. Presently, we are shopping and talking to other major labels. WEA will probably distribute our pro-duct."

NEW YORE WATCH

Reliable sources say a new urban pop station is coming to the Big Apple soon, with former WBLS PD, the legen-dary FRANKIE CROCKER, slated for the PD slot. Inner City Broadcasting chairman PERCY SUTTON reportedly has put together a 1.2 billion bid for Capital Cities TV sta-tions in Detroit (WXYZ), Buffalo (WKEW-TV), and Tampa (WFTS-TV.) The objective is to give minorities a toehold in the TV business, even if it means giving up the lu-crative WLIB-AM and WBLS-FM to help raise venture capi-tal. An East Coast pressing plant pioneer is scheduled to open offices in the Apple in the near future. (Stay tuned...) MISSING PERSONS DEPART-

MENT: Has anyone seen former record executives PARIS ELEY (Columbia), TOMMY YOUNG (Po-lyGram), and BILL STATON (RCA)??? Black radio pioneer KAE WILLIAMS is set to take over Steve Turner's 11AM-2PM on-air slot at WHAT-AM begin-ning Aug. 5. Turner will remain aboard as the MD. Pop Arts prexy LAWRENCE

GOODMAN flew to London re-cently to shop for an inter-national licensing deal for

ROXANNE SHANTE with enter-tainment lawyer Jonathan Black... Reports circulating out of the Apple say UTFO's label, Select Records, and

Jazz Concert Review ERNIE WATTS REIGNS AT PALACE COURT

It's evident that saxo-phone artist Ernie Watts is comfortatle in a variety of settings. Because of his extensive work in the studio with artists ranging from Quincy Jcnes to The Rolling Stones, his character would seemingly be pervasive. His concert tour with the

Stones in 1982 and his win-ning a Grammy Award for "best Jazz Instrumental" for his interpretation of "Cha-riots of Fire," gave him a new presence in the public eye. Watts' recent appearances

with artists like the Brazi-lian composer, Mayuto, have done little to change public

and industry perception that this is a man of many faces. His current Qwest Records

LP, "Musician," gives Ernie Watts new dimension, as did his live sets recently at the Palace Court room in Hollywood. The full flourishing sound

heard on the album was lim-ited by the size of the room and the lack of strings, but that circumstance allowed Watts to showcase more of his horn, especially on the moving "Where the Spirit Lives." Watts was at once lyrical

and rhythmic on this song, which was reflective, ur-gent, yet hopeful. The live performance is a

relatively new setting for Watts, so instead of relying heavily on stage presence, the hornman let songs like

"Rock Camping" and "Red Dress" physically involve the audience. The eclectic Watts is a

technician who undoubtedly is more comfortable playing than performing. But as his music moves further from the instrumental cubbyhole of jazz to the open air of pop settings, Watts will have to turn on more stage juice. The vocals of Phil Perry

on "Music Prayer for Peace" and "Don't You Know" were crisp and emotive. Other veteran sessionmen, such as drummer John Robinson, Na-than East on bass and Don Grusin on keyboards played like they were happy to be out of the padded confines of the recording studio. The happy result was a royal set fronted by Ernie Watts at the Palace Court.

Pan Pacific Park in Los Angeles was a hubbub of activity over the weekend. Superphotog Eddie Wolfie ran to the park to do back-to-back photo shoots. Caught in his camera lens were two brand new groups headed for stardom. First up, Eddie captured the youthful group X-PURTZ (known at home as Rodney Potts, Ray Myrie and Garnell Johnson.) This trio's first release on MCA Records is due out just as soon as Master Mixer Louil Silas, Jr. does his thing. The song is an "invitation

to all the young ladies of the world" said the group with a smile - its title is "Come Work My Body." Next up, Eddie joined the

crowd who gathered to listen to the classic and contem-porary harmonies of the group SIZZLE (they are a/k/a Herb Harold, Derrick McLaughlin and Darryl Brad-ley) -- they sang as Eddie snapped away. Both Sizzle and X-Purtz

were tickled that Stevie Wonder's make-up artist fixed them up for the cameras. Her name is Val Williams. Right after Eddie wrapped,

he dashed back to the ANDRE' CYMONE shoot he'd begun ear-lier in the day. Eddie con-fiddd that the POINTER SIS-TERS video is really going to be a surprise and very exciting. Another bright star to

watch for is someone mil-lions have seen. STEPHANIE SPRUILL has trotted the globe with JULIO IGLESIAS for the past several sea-sons. At the moment, she is in the studio and what she

comes up with should be as hot as she is. It was moving to see the

televised replay of the re-naming of a street in India-nola, MS to "B.B. King Bou-levard." Time was when In-dianola was not a place to visit if you didn't know which side of the tracks was which. It's good to see a great 'Music Man' like B.B. bridge that gap. And speak-ing of the renaming of streets, Detroit will honor Aretha Franklin's late father by renaming a street in that city, "Rev. Cecil Franklin Blvd." Those license plates that

Arista is distributing stamped "Zoomin" couldn't be more accurate. Zooming up the charts and out of the stores is exactly what Are-tha's record is doing; it's so sweet to see the Queen right back where she belongs on the charts. We miss her when she's absent from our lives. QUESTION OF THE WEEK: What ever happened to Jimmy "Bo" Horne? Rumor is he's in the studio...

NBC TV will debut a new offering from Motown Produc-tions August 9 to air Fri-days at 9PM. Entitled "The Motown Revue Starring Smokey Robinson," the contemporary music and comedy series will be hosted by Smokey featu-ring top music and comedy artists in a party-like at-mosphere. Inspired by the "Motown 25" show, Suzanne de Passe, president of Motown Productions and executive producer of the show, selec-ted Smokey to host a variety of musical celebrities in the hour show. The August 9 premiere will feature Stevie Wonder, DeBarge, the Four Tops, Vanity, comedian Arse-nio Hall and actor Leo O'-Brien and will tape before a live audience. Solid Gold solidifies its

1985 schedule with the an-nouncement of the return of Dionne Warwick as host. Run DMC, having been on

tour with the Fresh Fest

Tour, will embark August 27 as the opening act for the North American Tour of Wham. Catch their video "Live From the Ritz" on MTV. Motown's Bob Jones is as-

sisting along with Sam Har-ris in a "Commitment to

AIDS project Los An-geles" scheduled for Septem-ber 19 at the Century Plaza Hotel in LA to raise money for AIDS research. Have you caught the new

Millie Jackson/Elton John video? It seems Elton works very well with Ms. Millie and is furthering his duets to include one with Sister Sledge and WHAM. Billy Bass has exited from

B&B Productions to start with a new label called Conceited Records. The first scheduled release is by a sultry singer who more than lives up to her name Lushus Daim. Watch out!! Richard Perry is in the

studio with Jeffrey Os-borne...Sez Richard: "I have all the material and it's just a matter of laying it down." He's also producing several cuts on the new Patti LaBelle LP for MCA. Tony DuPuis is scheduled

to tour Texas with Spyro Gyra and then California with Pat Metheny. Phyllis Hyman guest sings

on the forthcoming Joe Sam-ple of the Crusaders solo album entitled Oasis due the end of July on MCA. Tina Turner gone country?

She's gone pop, rock, R&B,

why not? Playback Records out of Nashville is releas-ing an LP of country tunes. Michael Jackson and a host

of luminaries from George Lucas to Francis Ford Cop-pola join with Disney Pro-ductions to produce "Captain Eo" a twelve minute (costing approximately a million a minute) production with Mi-chael playing Captain Eo in a special 3-D presentation. The special Jackson sound-track will be heard in the Lucasfilm sound and premier at Disneyworld's Epcot Cen-ter in Orlando and at Ana-heim's new Tomorrowland. Chaka Khan is currently

working on the theme for the flick "White Night" although she currently has the re-lease "Can't Stop The Street" from the soon to be released (October) rap movie Krush Groove which will fea-ture Kurtis Blow.

Kareem Jabbar, anticipa-ting his retirement after next season, has been talk-ing with A&M Records regar-ding a label deal for jazz which Kareem wants to pur-sue.

Even though Eddie Murphy's scheduled Paramount movie release for this summer has been scratched, he is sche-duled to start a property called "Golden Child" for release next summer in which he plays a detective trying to locate locate lost chil-dren.

ARIES The desire for a more effi-cient operation cannot be found without some homework and direction by you.

TAURUS Be specific in your communi-cations especially with partners or associates; then you can rightfully expect positive results.

GEMINI Stumbling blocks seem to be cropping up everywhere you turn. Cool out and relax until the way seems clearer.

CANCER It's time you faced the fact that you cannot live up to others' expectations, but must set your own goals.

LEO First clear your mind of the problems you're facing; otherwise, your concentra-tion will be divided and your endeavors slack.

VIRGO If you don't keep that com-mitment you made, the after-effects can be more damaging than you can imagine.

LIBRA Surround yourself with posi-tive energy and eliminate that negative force whether it be within yourself or others.

SCORPIO Bide your time and wait for the right moment to move ahead. Be ready when it comes, but don't force it.

SAGITTARIUS Your health needs to be of primary concern and be ad-dressed on a long term pre-ventive program as opposed to your hit and miss care of the past.

CAPRICORN A good plan formulated in the morning can be an excel-lent guideline to productive days if followed. The prob-lem has not been in the plan but in the follow-through.

AQUARIUS A recent rejection is un-founded and unfair but ne-vertheless a hurt not easily assuaged. Force communica-tion after your sensitivity has been calmed.

PISCES The slowness of others to make decisions does not ne-cessarily connote a negative reaction, but may indeed be the result of more studied reactions.
