Don also mentioned that he would bro appea r ing on the Andy Williams and

Was Don still interested in makmg singles or did he consider himself much more an album artist now?
·• I'd like to get a hit single. It's nice to have one and get it played a bit. J'd like to play for people to dance.
'' Maybe I haven't had the right line up. 1 haven't got an instant bass player and an in.stant drummer, like the Stax th ings. The record depends very much on the guys who play wit h you."

('C',h,::il~d°'.:"'---•n=dc--M-arv __ 1n_,,,,G_•_Y_• _/1t_w_as_ only last August that
I was burbllnst In the public press: IS TAMLA MOTOWN DEAD?
Dashing headlong Jnto a path of foUy and tittle tattle I raved: "The Motown sound. which has been such a power for good music In four years,
seem,; to be dying th(' death--ehartwlse ... the magic s~ms to be wear• ing out. They will ha\.'e lo cast off the four years old formula that is wearing decidedly thln. Some things you DO Ret used to."
Perhaps these s trong words were boun ced by satellite acroc;s the Allantlc to De• ltolt Cit y, wherein wor• ried executives held Immediate conferences.
0Jte can imagine opulent finger-poppers meeting in a sumptlous board room, beneath huge portra its of Berry Gordy and Diana Ross.
" Okay you guys. See what thJs Llmey punk is mouth• Ing about our products? Let's sec some action. We'll show that Banzai Dog Bebop Band what finger poppln's all about. Get Tamla back In the chart--or else."
Wen, whatever happened, it seems to have worked. To have seven records In the Pop 30 at the same time must be the most In soul history.
And they are all quality songs, performances and productions, Including the revivals by the Isley Brothers and Martha and the Vandellas, whJch date back to the days of Ready, Steady, Go!
However, I wasn't alone tn my presumpllous barrage.
Dave Godin, founder of the Tamla Motown Appreciation Society also said back lo August.: "Personally I don't think Motown is what It used to be. They have tended to stick too much to a set formula."
And looking back, I rounded off my blast with these wise sayings: " Perhaps the sound that rocked the Sixties wiU ha,•e a revtval of fortune soon."

LOUD
This was noticeable with the Groundhogs, who opened the show. Tony McPhtt's guitar was over-loud and his vocals were w e ll-nigh inaudible on the group's ve rs ion of Sleepy John Estes' " Ex-press Man ' and the Freddy King number, "Welfare BllleS."
Sieve R~e•s harmonica was also a bit lost Jn the overall sound. However, bass guitarist Pete Cruickshank and drummer Ken Pustelnik fared

somewhat better. The Groundhoias were then
auamentcd by planlst Bob Hall and the belle ol the British blu• - ,lo. Ann Kelly . Power£ul singer though she is. JoAnn had to pull out a ll the stops to make ii on " Let Me Love You " and the old evergreen, " Rock Me Baby." But why no -solo spot for Jo-Ann?

Her two-number set wa!> all too short and could have been bolstered by the Inclusion ot some of her country blues singing with her very good bottleneck guitar playing.

Violent feedback marred the itart of his sd, but this was corrected and he continued unhindered.
The Groundhogs returned lQ, back John on •• Going Back To Chltago '' which he prefaced with " Different stroke, fnr different

"They will make a contract, say, at a •alary ot £2,000 "'lth auc.h an artist to fulfil a tour of possibly two or three weeks. But the rontract stipulates that the enta&emt-nt is null and void if the lt1ll"s approval ts not fortbcomina.
" They then proceed to lJ'}I to sell the artist or group around the country. Then. after some weeks. they find that \My have only been able to book the act fo r tl,000-worth of work. Or even IHs.
•• The outcome ls that, ln.l'tt'ad or telling the managrr of the group thal they have been unable to sr-11 It as planned, they say that the Musldans' Union wJIJ not permit It to appear.
"The tru th Is that, in

"But lf the recording is not a suecers. these are minimal. Tltls !s certalnly • practice frowned upon by lht, Union. We fttl that the group should have some money In ilt pocket for work
done In th e recording studio. Their reward should not depend solely on the gamble that the ncord might be a .succes,.
"The Unk>n h•s had Instances brought to Its notice where such record. in&s hne been succe.ssfol and brought in anything from £500 to Cl,000. Thi• money should have been paJd to the ll"OUP- But once the agni LI or promo.. ten get their hands on

"The MU feeJs that the group ,should have the. fir.st call on any money earntd as the result of its recordJng. For without the p-oup, there could have bttn no r• cordlna In the first place.
" But when you try to get musicians to produce evidence against these apnt.s, they are either afraid of beina vlctlmbed where future work Is concerned, or afraid of being knocked about by strona:arm men.
