Streisand SignsWith CBS -TV;$300,000 PerColumbia's Barbra Streisand

has just signed an exclusiveTV appearance contract withCBS that will last at least 10years and will guarantee herno less than $300,000 for eachof her video performances.

The contract was inked onlyafter heavy bidding, it's re-ported, between CBS and NBC.With the signing, the "FunnyGirl" star will now appear onlyon CBS radio or television. Tobegin with, her TV outings willmost likely mean one speciala year for the first few yearsand then a possible series.

Michael Dann, CBS -TV pro-gramming Vice -President, whoannounced the signing, hintedthat the first Streisand specialmight very well be a solo stint.Whatever the final decision,Columbia Records officials willprobably be thinking in termsof a tie-in album of some sort.

CBS is ThrilledExpressing CBS sentiment,

Dann said, "The thing thatmakes it so thrilling for CBSis not just that she is the mostexciting new personality tocome along since Carol Burnett,but her range of performanceis so broad. She is a distin-guished actress, a great come-dienne and certainly she is ina class by herself as a singer.This gives her enough stringthat if she wanted to carry ashow by herself, she could. Ouronly regret is that we don'thave a 50 -year contract withher."

The $300,000 fee, it should benoted, would only pertain tothe singers' specials and would

be subject to scaling in the in-stance of a weekly series.

Thrush's "People" single is9 this week and the Capitol"Funny" caster is 3. Streisandalso has her first, second andthird albums on the charts at90, 40 and 6, respectively.

The signing of Streisand fol-lows the CBS pattern of pact-ing top name entertainers toexclusive contracts in order tobuild audiences. Other recentsignees have been Decca's CarolBurnett, currently heard chirp-ing on ABC's "Fade Out-FadeIn" caster. Carol will be seenon CBS' fall "Entertainer"series as one of the headliners.

Another potent record artistdue for a CBS build-up is Col'sRobert Goulet. His first specialwill be aired Nov. 19. A serieswill follow eventually.

Astaire Sells Ava RecordsHOLLYWOOD-Rumored for some time to be on the verge of

selling his Ava Records, terper topper Fred Astaire has finallymade a concrete move: he's sold the controlling interest in thelabel (named after his daughter) to two Texans, retaining onlya 10% interest.

The diskery went to real estater Glen G. Costin and his associateFrederick Schumacher for an undisclosed sum. Costin, also in-volved in the '63 -formed theatrical production company, DallasProperties, Inc., said last week that it is too early just yet to gointo any definite policy changes. The present personnel includesJackie Mills, A&R VP; Tommy Wolf, Secretary -Treasurer; andTerri Frison, Production Coordinator. Costin assumes the presi-dent's duties until someone is found to top the operation.

Costin felt that a major flaw in the operation of late has beenlack of promotion, and plans to rectify that are due, along withadded emphasis on foreign sales. MGM Records, Ava's distributor,stays that way, at least until August when its contractual com-mitment expires.

Costin predicts that the current Ava LP release, Elmer Bern -stein's music from "The Carpetbaggers" film, will be the label'sbiggest selling album yet. It reportedly sold 19,000 in its first twoweeks of release. Said Costin: "With the tie-in we have withEmbassy Pictures and Joe Levine, together with our promotionalplans, it can't help but become Ava's biggest selling record yet."

tion of Tom Morgan, BusinessAffairs Manager for Capitol'sA&R Dept. Morgan also willcontinue in his present capa-city.

Jack L. Levy, who has beenVice President and GeneralManager of Ardmore andBeechwood for the past severalyears, is leaving to accept asimilar position with anotherpublishing firm.

Dave Clark IllDave Clark, leader of Epic's

Dave Clark Five, is hospital-ized in England, suffering froman ulcer attack.

Clark is the second Britishgroup member to be out of cir-culation due to illness recently.Two weeks ago the Capitol'sRingo Starr of the Beatles wasout of action because of tonsi-litis.

JOHNNY MATHIS-Columbia C21 34.

Johnny Mathis connoisseurs whohave failed to get many of his previousCol disks can get the vintage crop onthis two -disk set. The title in no wayoverestimates the crooner's talents. Hisgreatness with a song gets consistentaffirmation on "Chances Are," "Misty,""Small World" and "Maria," and 20others.

EVERY LITTLE BIT HURTS

BRENDA HOLLOW AY-Tamla 257.

Brenda proved herself a knowingsinger on her "Every Little Bit Tlurts"single and she confirms the successwith this album that gives a nice scopeto her voice. In addition to her hit, shechants "Unchained Melody" and "SadSong."

12 GREAT HITS

JIMMIE RODGERS-Dot 3579.Jimmie and his guitar give straight-

forward readings of a dozen melodicstandards. The repertoire allows himto create a sentimental, bittersweetatmosphere that distinguishes the al-bum. "I'm Always Chasing Rainbows"and "Crying in the Chapel" are in-cluded.

ON THE COUNTRYSIDE

BROOK BENTON-Mercury SR 60918.

Bros!, goes out to the country forthis album. His distinctive voice andvocal nuances give these old tunes anew and slightly rock frame. It's alikeable disk that includes "I'd TradeAll My Tomorrows" and "I Don't HurtAnymore."

WERNER MULLER ON BROADWAY

London 44047. (Bonus Sampler included)Muller takes some of the most ex-

uberant songs from the great Broad-way shows and gives them a brassy,loud, violiny outing. The result is somehigh-spirited fun. "Hey, Look Me'Over" and "There's No Business Like;Show Business" are high points.

THE KIM SISTERS THEIR FIRST ALBUM

Monument MLP 8022.

The Kim elpee bow is an assortmentof tunes that could hardly be more di-verse. English ballads ("Danny Boy"),off Broadway tunes ("Try to Remem-ber") and rock and rock ditties"Charlie Brown") provide the samplerof their talents. The gals are wild andenthralling on all.

IN MY SOLITUDE

ANTHONY NEWLEY-RCA Victor 2925.Anthony offers an album of impec-

cable tunes. They are all arranged (byRay Ellis) to put the accent on senti-ment and emotion. Each of them issung with sincerity and conviction. "ISee Your Face Before Me" and "GuessI'll Hang My Tears Out to Dry" setthe mood.

THE YOUNG LOVERS

SOUNDTRACK-Coln mbia OL 7010.

The music here backs a new film thatpenetrates into modern campus livingand is bound to have great appeal withlarge crowds. The music is intelligentand wistful. It's by Sol Kaplan (of"The Victors" fame) who evokes adefinite contemporary aura.

FOLKSY NINA

VINA SIMONE-Colpix 465.

Nina is heard on a disk of countrifiedsongs. The mood is moody more oftenthan not and always extremely sensi-tive. Rather than singing a song, sherecreates it to her feeling of the mo-ment. A few of the slices are "SilverCity Bound" and "The Twelfth ofNever."

HANK MARR QUARTETTE LIVE AT THE CLUB 502

King 899.

Hank, Rusty Bryant, Wilbert Long -mire and Taylor Orr make some stimu-lating jazz waves on the organ, sax,guitar and drums. Some of the tunesare tried and true and others are origi-nal Marr compositions. All get groovyworkouts and add up to an above parjazz disk.

LITTLE BIG HORN

NAT ADDERLEY-Riverside 474.

Nat plays a mellow cornet that pro-duces some mournful and movingsounds. He is assisted by faultlesssidemen on this one. Junior Mance,Kenny Burrell, Jim Hall and othersprovide this complementary backing.

ARMADA:BY DOUG McCLELLANDThe sixth annual ARMADA

Convention is here-at MiamiBeach's Eden Roc Hotelthrough July 1-and the timeis ripe for a look at recent,current and future events re-lating to the independent rec-ord distributors and, indeed,the entire recording industry.

In recent months there havebeen a number of new labelsbrought into the market-aproliferation, veritably-andpost -convention days seem cer-tain to find the alignments ofdistributorships undergoingdrastic changes. The meetingsbetween the new labels andparties now entering the dis-ributing field are bringingforth these new moves and

Yesterday, Today 6i. Tomorrowthey will be reflected via greatchanges in Florida and WestCoast cities, particularly, ac-cording to one ARMADAknowledgeable.

"Some manufacturers feelthat some distributors havenot been doing their job," hewent on. "Most of the indiemanufacturers don't have suffi-cient releases, however. A dis-tributor can't stay in businesswith only a small amount ofproduct from indie manufac-turers; and the problem hasbeen that many distributorshave absorbed almost too manylines, with the attention goingto the hits, or those manufac-turers that make the mostnoise the soonest. The labelsthat don't have the hits want

their share, too.""Some labels will be dropped

as the industry settles down toa more conservative pattern.There'll be greater emphasison inventory control from thedistributors; and a more ma-ture, less emotional state be-tween label and distrib is al-ready in sight."

Distributors, too, have beensinging the blues about a salesslump. It's seasonal, of course,but a lot feel that when agroup like The Beatles comesalong and sweeps the country,they also sweep all otherproduct out the back door. Dis-tributors maintain that indus-try figures indicating an over-all sales boom are not trulyreflective of industry health

when it's only a couple oflabels and select distributorsthat are reaping the rewards.

Conventioneers are optimis-tic about improvements in theretail area, mainly because re-ports indicate that book clubshave nose-dived in sales which,it would appear, means that thepublic is not anxious for thistype of merchandising anylonger. The public is gettingout more, no longer wants tobe inundated with mail nordoes it want to have to monitordeliveries. The rate of mem-bership in book clubs is fall-ing off, too, signifying furtherthat if the public is in thiskind of a buying mood, it's notlikely to be overly liberal torecord club offerings, either.

Consumer Patterns ChangingThe retail end of the trade

has long been beefing aboutabout record clubs, and theseclubs are now approachingdark days if current experi-ences with book clubs meananything. However . . . booksat the retail level are holdingup pretty well-all of whichsubstantiates the theory ofmany that consumer patternsare changing.

"People are going back tothe specialized record market,"a retailing expert told RecordWorld last week.

The new picture for distribu-tors following the ARMADAConvention?

"Diversification throughmergers or purchases or othertypes of affiliations with racksand one -stops," opined anothersource close to the situation."The major members of AR-MADA have heavily investedin racks. It's already fairlynormal to consider the racksapart from the distributors."

It was also stated by an AR-MADA official that, whether ornot FTC Corn. John Reillymade known the record indus-try rules, at this time, "It's aforegone conclusion that AR-MADA as an association willmake sure that the FTC rulesare not meaningless."

There has been considerabletalk lately of a resurgence ofrecord pirating or counterfeit-ing, but an ARMADA spokes-man said there are no com-plaints lodged with the asso-ciation "at present. We are,however, observing a case in thejurisdiction of New York."

The same contact continued:"The record industry in itspresent form is a little less than20 years old, and it's been goingthrough a lot of growing pains.The men in the business who

Kapp's Lipman on Little LPMIAMI BEACH-Macey Lipman, Kapp Records sales execu-

tive, in a speech Saturday, June 27, at the Eden Roc Hotel beforeROSA, told members that the little LP is a very important prod-uct and that through their own lack of awareness, they have sofar not made the effort to capitalize on this "profit -making item."

He stated that because one stops are the most important linkin distribution between manufacturers and operators, the onestops have a responsibility to see that this product is promotedand merchandised properly. Lipman outlined the Seeburg methodof distribution and showed the members at the meeting howSeeburg had monopolized this area of the coin -machine business.

Lipman stated adamantly, "Either you recognize the value ofthe little LPs or you will forego business and slight the jukebox operators, who helped make you flourish."

He announced that Kapp, after researching the market, hasdecided to launch a full-scale program for promoting, merchandis-ing and distributing these little LPs with an initial August releaseof 10 records, including Jack Jones' "Wives And Lovers," RogerWilliams' "Solid Gold Steinway," Louis Armstrong's "HelloDolly!" and Jane Morgan's "Greatest Hits."

Lipman concluded by referring to Columbia's and Kapp's movesinto this area as an indication of the confidence both companieshave in the future of the little LPs, and said further, "If themembers of ROSA were to adopt a positive attitude towards sup-porting and promoting the little LPs, there is every reason tobelieve this could be a most successful, original and profitableventure."

Complete SpectrumColumbia's 45 Aim

BY DAVE FINKLENEW YORK -A glance at

the Top 100 singles chart thisweek shows three Columbiasingles of wide divergence.They're Barbra Streisand's"People" at 10, the NewChristy's "Today" at 34 and"Angelito" by Rene and Reneat 53. The varying back-grounds of these two disksis indicative of the broadColumbia singles operation,which was described to RecordWorld last week by Bob Thomp-son, Columbia's National Pro-motion Manager.

(The Rip Chords' "ThreeWindow Coupe" at 70, SteveLawrence's "Everybody Knows"at 79 and Andy Williams'"Wrong for Each Other" at 94are other Col single chartentries this week.)

The disks in question,Thompson said, indicate thatthe company has "continued aprogram started almost threeyears ago to build a strong andrepresentative showing in thesingle record picture."

"These singles," he con-tinued, "generally speakingfollow the same philosophy asthe company as a whole-acomplete musical spectrum thatincludes everything from`Three Window Coupe' by TheRip Chords to Johnny Cash."

The mention of Cash prompt-ed Thompson to detail theCol single -into -album strate-gies. "When we speak of Cash,"he noted, "we have to stressthe story of how a hot singlesline creates vitality and excite-ment throughout a company.The 'Ring of Fire' LP is stillselling well because of thesingle's success."

Thompson agreed that theintent of the singles operationswas to find the right material

Bob Thompson

for its expanding roster ofartists so that hit singles couldbe turned into albums. "Thesingle record is 95% of theexcitement in the business," heopined, "so we're dedicated toit."

Thompson feels that hits (orwhat the company senses willbe hits) must be "exposed toboth eye and ear."

For that reason the companypays special attention to theneeds of radio stations, espe-cially Top 40 programmers. Asa result, Col was named by theradio stations last year as No.I in radio servicing and No. Iin improvement in radio servic-ing. What with 225 to 250singles releases a year the com-pany has to sense which willhit the biggest and then sendradio stations the air playcopies they need.

Thompson pointed out thatnowadays the Top 10 or sosongs are the most playedwhereas in the past the newreleases got the most play. Tomake certain that stationsare not stuck with worn copies

CAPERSThe Value Of A Hype

BY TED RANDAL

HOLLYWOOD-It's hard to believe, but there are still asurprisingly large number of record companies and promotionmen who are convinced the only way to get a record played isto tell a disk jockey or music director it has sold an astronomicalnumber of copies in a major market.

It makes no difference to them whether they have sold halfthat number anywhere; they are so used to hyping, it is almostimpossible to tell the truth. Most of us on this end of the busi-ness used to look at them and say, "Shame." Now we turn awayand chuckle, for we know they are only telling funny littlestories. Incidentally, we rarely play their records, for no onewants to support a cause that is built on a lie.

Fortunately, there is a new breed of promotion men that isdeveloping very rapidly and successfully. It is composed of hard-working, astute and knowledgeable men who have found theycan offer the dj a valuable service-Jtipping him off to futurehits that will help build his audience. This new type of pro-motion man works in a strange way. He works at his job fromeight to 15 hours per day, and his main concern is building anhonest and friendly relationship with station personnel. Does hehype records? You bet he does! And when he hypes a disk jockeyon a record, chances are he'll be believed, for this new breedalways tells the truth. Admittedly, it is not always easy to tellan inquisitive deejay that a "plug" record is not selling, butmost jocks are professional enough to want to help break arecord that has a good sound. The new breed has also found thatradio men have long memories; they don't forget the man whosaid, "Get off the record; it's not selling," and they remember theguy who first tipped them off to the #1 record they happened tomiss.

Unfortunately, the old breed is dying slowly, but bit by bit itis lessening in numbers. When it is finally extinct, both theradio and record industries will breathe a sigh of relief.

Command ClickingWith First Single

Label Topper Light Has SecondReady, Is Planning More

BY DAVE FINKLE

NEW YORK-It's quite a rarity when a diskery can come upwith a Top 10 single on the first try, so it's understandable thatEnoch Light, Command Records topper, is proud of his previouslyall -album company's 45 bow, "Love Me With All Your Heart,"which rose on the nation's charts to the No. 2 spot. (Disk is No. 10on Record World's list this week.)

Light's pride swells evenmore when he mentions that hedecided to release the "LoveMe" single from the RayCharles Singers' "SomethingSpecial for Lovers" LP despitethe advice of doubters who saidthe tune had already been of-fered on the singles market inother versions and hadn't got-ten off the ground.

But, Light explained to Rec-ord World last week, "The rec-ord was so strong, we had tobring it out. And now we haveeven a better one ready to fol-low it up with-`Al-Di-La."(This one is from the RayCharles Singers' new albumwhich will be released three tofour weeks after the singlepreems.)

The new single is onlyone of a number the companyplans to release, Light said,since it wants to make a last-ing mark in the field. In a shorttime there will be two more 45sby other Command artists, butthe label head didn't want tomention names just yet. Thenthere will be more when thewaxery is ready.

"We are very excited aboutCommand in the singles field.We expect that having singleson our line will tremendouslyincrease our selling power inthe foreign market. In someforeign markets singles aremore important than albumsand our singles will give thatmany more people familiaritywith our product."

On the frequency and quan-tity of releases, Light has defi-nite opinions. "We probablywon't release more than onesingle a month," he stated,"and then we'll work on it, be-cause we feel that if it's worthreleasing, it's worth workingon. That's the way we've alwaysworked our album releases.And although we only releaseabout 18 or 19 albums a year,we've managed to maintain ourposition as one of the top 10companies in sales."

Light reported that singleswill be released from albums

Enoch Light

when the company feels thereis a strong enough slice to goit on its own, but if they get agood idea for a single, theywon't hesitate to produce itwith or without album.

"We're a quality line, and al-though we know the teen wantsa definite beat to his records,at the same time he wants alittle better music."

"There's too much on themarket these days." he com-plained. "Everybody seems to bewildly trying, hoping for a mir-acle to happen. It's time we tooka second look at what we're do-ing. You have to work to get amiracle. Buyers want selectedentertainment. It's up to the in-dustry to do the pre-screening tokeep people enthusiastic."

"And," he pointed out, "withso much being released, thedealer gets skeptical too."

But dealers won't be too skep-tical about Command albums-and certainly not singles, either,after the present success. Lightis determined to keep it thatway.
