WHO SAYS
JIMIHENDRIXCAN'TSING?
(HE DOES!)
JIMIHENDRIX can't sing! ereOo sez so?" outraged Hendrix
fans will demand, at this startling statement. But beforeMM readers who dig the sounds of "Purple Haze," " Hey Joe "and enjoy the stage act of Jimi, Noel Redding and Mitch Mit-chell reach for their red ink ballpoints and search franticallyfor the address of Mailbag, it should be understood the state-ment comes from-Jimi Hendrix.
Jimi, who came to Bri-tain from America last yearunder the aegis of ex -Ani-mals bass player ChasChandler, who is now hismanager, brought tremen-dous excitement to thegroup world with a hard-hitting sound with its rootsin blues and Bob Dylanlaced with freak -out show-manship.
The music is loud, deafen-ing . . . but it has a lot ofsoul and invention. In theterminology of the hippy,it's valid.
Jimi is a happy, uncompli.cated person, who gets hiskicks from playing and hasthe American affinity for show-man ship which Britishers findhard to adopt naturally, oreven understand.
If Eric Clapton appeared ona pop show biting a flamingguitar with his teeth, he wouldbe regarded as a traitor bythousands of dedicated fans.But says Jimi: "I regard my-self as a guitarist and enter-tainer." and that doesn't stophim creating something origi-nal and remaining true to hismusical beliefs.
1 met Jimi at his bright andairy apartment at the top ofa modern block near MarbleArch. He was listening ex-citedly to acetates of tracksfrom his forthcoming LP.
BURNT -OUT
He smoked endless cigaret-tes and crouched on a lowstool dressed in flowery, vio-lently coloured shirt andtrousers in a sparsely furni-shed room. The screen of a
TV set was covered in sootand hadn't been used forweeks. The hi -11 equipmentwas bright and new and inconstant use.
" I can't read a note ofmusic," grinned Jinn, lingeringthe burnt -out wreck of hisguitar which burst into flameson the opening night of histour with the Walker Bro-thers.

Who were Jfini's influences?" Well, I like a lot of guitarplayers, but I don't copy. I
like Eric Clapton and someof the things Jeff Beck doesand that cat Vic Briggs. I wasreally surprised to find somany blues guitar playershere. They mostly play thesame style but you can suretell the differences. Pete Town-

Where Is Jimi happiestplaying? " I like playing clubs,hut I don't want to play themfor the rest of my life. Weare satisfied with what we aredoing at the moment, becauseit's playing the way we feel.I just want to make the musicacceptable. It's free form.

MY USUAL OMEN 10........ "J
DRUGS
I resent the question be.cause the word "drugs"nowadays unfortunatelytakes In too many things forcomfort, and I think thereought to be a series of sub-divisions which can warnpeople of the dangers oftaking certain drugs and thepsychological effects ofothers. The subject is beingtreated terribly frivolouslyby people who Indiscrimin-ately condemn everythingunder the one heading-drugs. Or on the other handby hippies who consider itail a good thing. It's a ter.ribly worrying thing. Thisis why I suggested recentlythat comparatively harmlessdrugs like marijuana shouldbe taken off the dangerousdrugs list, although this mayseem paradoxical at first,and to emphasise the clan.sera in heroin in particular.While smoking may not bedangerous, it's not neces.sarlly a good thing and it'sbad to have a mystiqueabout It, and both thesethings helped create one.
ROCKERS
It's a remarkable thingthey have survived, There'snothing fashionable aboutrockers, They were nothelped by the press or TV.In a way it's a good scenethat not everybody hasturned out to be hippies. Alot of rockers are onlypeople who happen to wearleather jackets.
HOMOSEXUALSI deplore the sniggering
gossip that goes on aboutwho's queer and who isn't.
BALLADS
Good ballads are not bor.Mg but at the moment somuch is happening on thatscene that I'm bored. I can'tfigure out why they are sopopular. It's probably be-cause there hasn't beenmuch good happening re-cently with the exception ofAlan Price and the Beatles.
OBSCENITY
Probably something Isobscene when it arises outof a misuse or distortion ofyour natural urges. If twopeople get pleasure out ofsomething without harminganybody else-then It Is notobscene.

ALICE IN WONDER-LAND
To be quite honest Ifound It very slow. I foundmyself slightly bored. Itdidn't raise any laughs.
RIOTS
I think the mob is alwayswrong when it behaves likea mob. Maybe the police arelust as wrong because they
are only an organised mob,but any group acting in aviolent way just terrifies me.Sometimes you can under-stand why they have beenincensed. But I still can'tunderstand how intelligentnice people can get togetherin a mass and behave lowerthan animals, because ani-mals never act that way ex.cept in a stampede and thenthey are only running away.
HAROLD WILSON
A lot of people hateturned against him in thetwo years, I suppose. But,in view of the circumstan-ces and mess this countryhas been in, I think he andhis Government are slowlypulling us out of the mess.There are many things I dis-agree with, but the results

ginning to show, and even-tually our house will be inorder. I would hate to have
a dogmatic Socialist as our,
leader, as I would hate anydogmatist. This is whatsuspect about Socialism-it's dogmatic nature, al-though I tend to be thatway myself.
MAILBAG
One of the best pages inthe paper. 1 always look invain for a mention of me.
STEVIE WINWOOD
I think anyone as goodas Stevie is bound to makeit, even if he makes mis-takes and releases thewrong records at first. I
don't think he can fail.
INTOLERANCEThis is such a boring
question because everybodyhates intolerance but whenmost people say " I hateintolerance" they don't re.alise that intolerance is verysimilar to prejudice, andeverybody has prejudices.We all have preconceivedideas of other people. If yousee a man with a richbrogue in a huge sweater,smoking a pipe and stridingalong the Cornish coast yousay: " Ah a son of the soil.Wonderful fishermen,y'know" In fact he may bea sex maniac. You may seean Italian covered inpimples outside a strip club.Yet he may be a great pain-ter. Young people have thesame prejudices as the oldbecause they are pre,udiced
ANNagainst the man in the bow-ler hat on the 8.10 train totown and in fact he may bea nice chap. I think youngpeople are more intolerantof older people. When allthe young people of todayhave grown up and theirdaughters want to stay outall night with someone theydon't like-how tolerant arethey going to be? There arevery few people who aregenuinely tolerant and manyhippies are just as intoler-ant. It can be a valid ex-cuse to be intolerant of
something that is going 10
wrong. e.g
you. ThFre's a veryvague dividing line betweenwhat Is right and what Is
while everybodyhates intolerance, could wereally have afforded to betolerant of Flitter?
GUITAR IDOLS
It's funny everybody isdigging guitarists becausethe guitar has been an im-
portant part of the popscene for years. It's prob-ably because some goodguys have emerged, whodon't need mentioning be-cause they have been men-tioned enough, and it's goodto see everybody diggingthem.
RONNIE SCOTT'SCLUB
It has given me a lot ofpleasure-that sounds like awedding speech. A verygood scene, although some-times I have been utterlybored by some of the Eng-lish gear I have seen there,and I'm not talking aboutStan Tracey. I think RonnieScott is underrated as atenor player. By the way,as we are talking about jazzI thought Freddie Hubbardand Max Roach on TV re-cently was a real knock -out.
TOM McGUINNESS
He's capable of playingexcellent guitar as long asthe group isn't playing be-hind him. When we are allplaying together he turnsinto a stuttering wreck. Healternates between beingterribly nice and unbeliev-ably unpleasant.
PUBLICISTS
The best publicist joke Iever heard-no it isn't ajoke, it's the truth - wasabout a person who oncetried to persuade me to lethim do my publicity. Toshow what a good publicisthe was he said he had givena well-known group a" mystery image." And todo this he had refused toallow any press interviewsof the group. So the guywas doing absolutely noth-ing! 1 thought he was quitegood until he said that. Pub-licity is a necessary con-although Brian Sommervilleis quite good.

IF Herbie Mann ever de-cides to give up flute,
he could earn a good liv-ing as a comedian.
I met him in London this weekduring his ten-day visit tostudy the scene and try andfix up a visit for his group.He was wearing a lapelbadge inscribed "ABS ForPresident "-" Anybody ButJohnson," he explained-andthe interview was punctu-ated by a stream of hilariousMann comments and anec-dotes. He was reasonablyserious about music, how-ever.
"I'm on a Middle Easternthing now," he said. "I'vegot an oud player In theband. An oud is a lute, thepremier instrument inMiddle Eastern music."I parted withped the congatedr um. I hel crea a
monster and now everybodywho wants to make a com-mercial record takes a poprecord and adds congadrums. I started hearingconga in my sleep.
"For one thing, I realised thatconga blacks out the soundof the bass. And I've nowdiscovered that Bruno Carris a fantastic drummer. He'sbeen sitting there in myband minding his own busi-ness for years, playing sup-port to a conga drummer.
"The mhaute I let the congago I found out what a fan-tastic soloist Bruno is. Andthen we have Roy Ayers onvibes, Reggie Workman onbass and the oud player isChick Ganimlan.
"Our music is pretty free butwe add a little showbiz-welight incense and have aTurkish rug. And we havefar-out gimmicks like tellingthem the names of thesongs, saying hello, facingthem when we play andstarting on time.
" The audiences enjoy it andall those old-line critics whosay it Isn't jazz are just tooconstipated to enjoy them-selves. They set standardsas to how musicians shouldplay and behave. Then whenhe acts his own characterthey think they have beenlet down. They don't liketo think that most guysplaying jazz go to baseballgames, play with their kidsor even read books.
HERBIE: happy, quiet
"It's like the way I've beentrying to play Europe foryears and I've come to theconclusion that the bookersall have a Crow Jim atti-tude that only Negroes canplay jazz.
" Some of these critics thinkit can only be jazz if it'sin 4/4 with an off -beatdrummer and everybodysweating. Or else it has tobe loud, screaming, yellingand angry. I'm happy, quietand peaceful so what I'mplaying can't be jazz."
I said that Herbie was on oneof my favourite records-the Sarah Vaughan sessionwith Clifford Brown.
"At that time I sounded likea two -year -old taking hisfirst lesson who'd got Intothe wrong studio," saidHerbie with remarkable can-dour. "Brownie was mag-nificent, but my sound be.longed to the early what -do.I -do now school of fluteplaying.
" Bud Shank, Frank WesS,Sam Most, Jerome Richard-son-all those guys startedplaying the flute about thesame time I did. There wasnobody for us to listen to,we had to figure it out our-selves. I thought it wasswinging at the time-it wasswinging like a woodeneg!"l started listening toBrownie, Dizzy, Miles andArt Farmer. The flute iscloser to trumpet in con-cept, than to sax. And Inthose days, Sam Most andBud Shank didn't knowwhat they were doing,either."
"I've also started on bassflute, which needs an ampli-fier."
Herbie says that his VillageGate album is his biggestseller to date topping190,000 copies.
" We all thought the recorddidn't have it and we didn'tlike anything about it," hesaid. "Two of the drum-mers had a fight backstageand actually drew blood,and the bass player hadpicked up three tickets forspeeding because he waslate for the show."
What are the chances ofHerbie touring Britain.
"Hard to say," he admitted."But I was speaking toGeorgie Fame about doingsomething with him. I'drather do a tour withGeorgie, or Dave Clark orthe Rolling Stones, than tourwith another out-and-outjazz group.
"That way of doing it Is theonly hope for jazz over here.People will come to hear theother groups and we hopethey will enjoy what we dotoo.
"It's the young people whosupport jazz in the States.And they won't go to hearColtrane or Ornette Colemanbecause they want to enjoythemselves and those guysjust give them anger.
" We did a thing with SonnyBono in the States recentlyand we are now talkingabout doing a tour withhim and Cher. My groupwould raise the level of in-tellect of his audience. AndI want to get at his people."After all, my first group hadfour drummers because Iknew people liked drumsolos. We did Afro -jazz,then Afro-Cuban, thenBrazilian and now MiddleEastern. I've slowlydeveloped my public toaccept more things, but doneIt in such a way they didn'trealise it.
"After ail, the Beatles havedone the same thing.Theirs Is Involved musicnow. My audience in theStates Isn't a jazz audience-and that is the only hopefor jazz in Europe too' toreach the younger public.
' And the older people whosay that it's not really jazzhave got to realize that jazzis lust the expression of theday. And if they don'taccept It then they are justa load of mouldy figs."

" family " relationships, and
Eddie Mier confirms this.
" Those really were happy
years. I was with that bandfrom the beginning, Juneof 1935, to the end-whenit disbanded in Decemberof '42, when we all knewwe were going into the ser-vices.
BUDDIES
"And I really enjoyed it.Probably those seven yearswer the ha I everhad,e with allp
piestthe different
musicians who were, orbecame, my friends. Maltyand I are real buddies. Hewas in the Ben Pollackband when I joined, backin 1930, and we've beenclose ever since. And I
knew Ray and Nappy fromNew Orleans.
" After being in England aweek, and getting a chanceto find out what youraudiences appreciate injazz. I realise that the BobCrosby band had a soundthat would have knockedthem out here.
" There were many reasonsfor its success, but one wasthat we were lucky to haveMatty Matlock and BobHenan, Dean Kinealdetoo, who knew how towrite so that, though it wasorganised music, it had a
relaxed Dixieland feeling."Bob Crosby, when he was
made into a leader, tookover the remains of the BenPollack orchestra, in whichMiller. Bauduc Matlock,Gil Rodin, Gil Bowers,Nappy Lamare, Yank Law-son and Joe Harris hadplayed (there was an in-terim period when it wasknown as Clark Randall'sorchestral. How much, Iwondered, did the Crosbystyle derive from Pollack.
UNISON
"It was one of those thingsthat evolved, you know butI'd .y It had a lot of thePollack sound in it. Benny'sidea of using clarinet-tenorunison is one example.
"It arose in Pollack's bandbecause we wouldn't have

regular arrangements andhe'd tell me and Matty towork out something on thelast chorus. We'd do thatoctave thing. I think theCrosby band's use ofclarinet -tenor unison In-fluenced Glenn Miller."
Though best known as a tenorclarinet
player with a distinguishedNew Orleans style. " Wol-verine Blues," " DogtownRampart Street Parade "and "Louise, Louise " areamong the records featuringhis clarinet."It seems like I did clarineton most of the slow bluethings. Maybe it was :throwback to the Pollackband, Ben Idolised LeonRappolo and thought Isounded something likehim. He was my idol toowhen I was starting." ' 'There have been differencesof opinion over the yearss
BOB CROSBY: real buddies
about who played the twoclarinet solos on "Dog.town," which was recordedin '37, though it Is fair tosay that Sandy Brown, for
Millernever doubted that
Miller was responsible forboth.
When I asked him to confirmthis, he said: "It's been sobeog sinceI played thoseTit'secords, hard to say.d have to hear it again.
Then I'll tell you at once,because Matty's so muchthe better Player."
So I played the record toEddie, who said: "It's me,I'm ashamed to say. I'll'phone up Sandy and tellhim he's won his bet."
Like many of the New Orleansmusicians, Eddie favouredthe Albert system instm-ment for jazz work.
" I p/ayed Albert right up un-til I went into the FoxStudios. Then I had tochange to Boehm systembecause I couldn't makesome of those things onmy Albert. And I was thirdclarinet in the orchestra.But I still have this oldclarinet at home.
AWKWARD
"How I got it. I paid JimmyDorsey 50 dollars for IL Itwas made specially for himby Selmer in Europe whenDorsey came over herewith the Ted Lewis bandin 1930. What was funnywas that the first threefingers on the right hand,the awkward stretch on theAlbert, were on the Boehmsystem. The rest was ailAlbert.
"But Jimmy couldn't getused to it, so he sold it tome. This was soon after hereturn from Europe. I'dcome up to New York onmy own In 1930, deter-mined to hear the Pollackband, which was myfavourite. and perhaps geta job in it.
"in fact I joined him aftereight months and realisedmy ambition. And that wasa lucky chance really. Iwas playing alto andclarinet at the time andwas going to replace GilRodin. Then Ben said hehad bad news for me, thatGil had decided to stay, andasked if I played tenor.Apparently Babe Russin wasleaving. I got up somenerve and said Yes' andwent out and borrowed atenor, and that's how I be-came a tenor player.
SYSTEM
"But to return to the oldclarinet: I was workingwith Bob Crosby again,shortly before Jimmy Dor-sey died and Jimmy calledme at the TV studio fromFlorida and said he'd liketo try that clarinet again.
" So 1 sent it down to him,but he sent it back only afew weeks later, thankedme for It and said he stillcouldn't get used to it. Buthe'd had the instrumentcompletely overhauled, Nottoo long after that bepassed away."
Why, I asked, did Eddie Pre-fer the Allaert systemclarinet?
" Well, I don't feel at homeon Boehm though I've beenplaying it quite a few
years. No, forJazz I still preferJimmy's clarinet.I'm sure theAlbert has thebigger tone."
And how is Eddiegetting on inBritain for thefirst time?
" I'm loving it.I've waited yearsto be invited tocome here, andwhen I landed inLondon It was abig thrill for me.As for AlexWelsh, the wholeband is fine. It'sa swinging groupand the guyshave sure set meat ease. I feellucky to be withthem. I'm justhoping thatthey'll ask me tocome here again.Next time I'llbring my clarinetwith me."

TOWARDSA MOREACCURATECHARTWHAT OUR READERS THINKWHILE appieciating the steps taken by MM
to make the public aware of " skul-duggery " in the chart, may I point out thatby leaving the bottom twenty out, the publicis liable to forget there ever was a Pop 50.Could I suggest the tactics used recently inRhodesia over censorship of the press, whereblank spaces were used to emphasise and con-tinually draw attention to the censorship?As you are aware of these " chart parasites "could this method be adopted by your paper,showing the full Pop Fifty but leaving spaceswhere offending records should be, keepingthe public aware of underhand practiceswhile warning others? - FRIDAY BROWN,Worsley, Manchester.
I HAVE been a musician for the best part ofmy life. I have had to work my fingers to
the bone, sing my throat out and persecutemy brain to make ends meet. But I felt utterlysick and angry when I read about the " smellat the bottom of the chart." I hope thesepeople are unearthed soon as I would hate tofeel that some tone deaf, musically illiteratephoney had by financial means achieved in a
matter of days what I have been working foryears to achieve. - PETER T. PEARSON,Kilburn, London NW6.
I'M glad the MM has caught on to these un-scrupulous people. Well done Melody
Maker, - FRANCES COYNE, Kingston Vale,London.
I READ with delight your campaign for a moreaccurate chart.. I sincerely wish the Melody.
Maker good luck in its campaign. - R. L.

DUBLINERS STUMBLE UP THE HIT PARADE
nEGORRAII! After" psychedelic freak -
outs and the big bal-lads, another craze islooming on the pophorizon - the Irishsound is with us. Inthe shape of the Dub-liners, five hairy,huge and hilariousPaddies from the FairCity.
With "Seven DrunkenNights "-an ode to thedelights of the Hard Stuff- they burst Into the5151's Pop 30 last week.
The Dubliners are Indeedfrom Dublin and all havethe natural attributes ofthe Republic - sharp,bawdy wit; a predilectionfor a glass or two orthree and a disarming can-dour about their musicand their lives.
The faces behind the livewildest beards seen inLondon this year belongto Ronnie Drew, an ebul-lient natural spokesmanspewing out thousands ofcurse -intermingled wordsa minute; Luke Kelley,aged 26; BarneyMcKenna, whois 27; 32 year -old ChironBurke and JohnSheahan who is271 - "thehalf's impor-tant," he says.
They were formedfour years agoand have be-come one of themost successfulgroups on the Irish clubanti folk circuits both InIreland and in England." We break up regularlyabout once a week, butwe're always back againfor the gigs," said Ronnie.

like four or five." Theyare all married, are stilldomiciled in Dublin, butwelcome the chance tobring their kind of musicto the notice of a widerpublic.
They found their hit in Ire-land. "It was written bya bloke called Joe Heaney,who's from Connemara-it's in the West of Ire-land, you know-and he
didn't mind what we didwith it."
What they did was recordit-and It's become thefirst hit for a new label,Major Minor Records."It's not insulting theIrish-about 90 per centof them drink anyway,"said Barney.
Did they want to expandInto cabaret and concertsin this country? "I don't
mind where I sing. Yousoon get tired of singingto yourself. I want to singto everyone. And theready's very handy, too,you know."
Why haven't Irish artistsmade It in England be-fore now? " Well, theIrish are either too proudor have a failure complex.Basically the Irishman hasan inferiority complex
about his music. We ink
that people didn't accept
Irish singers either untilrecently.
" A German could get up
and sing-or an Irishmancould sing like an Ameri-can, but when an Irish-man' sang like an Irish-man, they thought he wasJoking. Really, I'm amazedthat the general publichave bought the record. I
never expected them to."
The Dubliners are fivefunny, friendly extroverts.They don't claim com-plete harmony - " some-times we fight every day,but we're always togetherwhen we've finished "-yet they seem on firstmeeting to have thosequalities of difference thatgells them together as a
unit.

" Gonna Give HerAll the Love I've Got"(Tamla Motown).
Four Tops! Temptations!I've heard this already onthe radio. It's a greatsound-that little xylo-phone riff knocks me out.Hell, my mind's gonefuzzy. It's so early in themorning (it was II am).Of course - it's JimmyRuffin. It's so much betterthan his last one. It couldeasily be a hit. It's a good,different soul record. Theytend to be a bit samey, butthis is new.
LULU: " The BoatThat I Row " (Col-
umbia).Lulu! She's already
played this to me. It's aNeil Diamond song. I likethis so much. This is thesort of thing that Lulu

don't think he's got thekind of voice for this, al-though I like the way heuses his voice at times. I
don't think it's workedhere. Won't be a hit.

Takes its time to fallinto the beat there. Couldthis be Herb Alpert's"Casino Royale "? I'm surethe melody will hit meafter about three plays. Alovely clean sound.

It sounds like SmokeyRobinson - or someonetaking him off. It sounds abit like an English soulrecord. Really, I've noidea who it is at all. MaryWells? Sorry, I don't likeit at all-and I hate thattwangy guitar there. Thewhole tune is made up ofthree notes. Definitely nota hit

The Peddlers. They aregreat. And I love this re-cord. I used to go andhear them at the Pickwickand just listen to them forhours. They are great per-formers I believe they areoff to the States soon-Ithink they'll wow themthere. The singer's got agreat voice and the drum-mer is fantastic.

THE CURSEOF THEREVIVED 45
IF you see a pop star walkingabout with a brought -down ex-
pression even though he has arecord In the Top 30, chances arehe'll be suffering from a bad caseof Re -issue Depression or the Curseof the Revived 45.
This dreaded pop disease hits success-ful artists who have had a big hit. Itsmuse is quite simply the lightning re -Issue of old, often inferior single materialby a former record company.
Vince Hill is the latest In a long lineof stars to be affected by it. Lost weekhe complained that on the strength of"Edelweiss," his formerrecord company Pye wererushing out a single re-corded for them.
The record, " If You Knew,"was mode three or four yearsago and released last week.although Pya say they havenever claimed it was Intendedto he VInee's next single.
But it does raise an Immo.tont point: are record en.psalm morally Justified In re.leaning old material by artistsno longer contracted to thembecause they have achievedsucrose with another label?
The list of artists who he,been aublected to the ordealof the Revived 45 is formidable.

put dated material on the mar-ket? For this material couldwork against follow.up re.cords newly -recorded.
7be MM put this questionto the record companies andto artists in the pop field.Here are their answers.
WHAT THE
STARS SAY TOM JONES: "This can bevmy distressing. I know-It'shappened to me. EMI issuedo couple of my old recordingsafter my first success on Deceithut, fortunately, they weren'thits
" Obviously on artist veryis
worried and concerned whenthis happens because it coulddamage his career. After all,the public isn't very concernedwith labels and a record is-sued after a big hit lookslike a follow-up wherever itcomes from.
"I know it can be saidthat business is business andthat the old record companyspent money making the re-cords, but why didn't tnevissue than at the time theywere made if they were goodenough to release?"
GEORGIE FAME: "I don'tthink It's morally right for thecompanies to do this really.Rather than damaging an ar-tist, it confuses the public.
"When we left EMI forCBS, our situation was slightlydifferent-we recorded independently so the material theyhad was all right. It had beenapproved by us.
"But if this hadn't been thecane, I think I'd have beenheartbroken. The companiessay they spend money on allartist but the artist tries hisbest for the company, too,When the contract hoe run out.the companies should do It Ina gentlemanly way by discus-sing the release with the ar.list first."
MANFRED MANN: ""I
thinkit would be unfair to ay thatIt's wrong of the record com-panies to do this. It's bad forthe artist, but it's good forthe company. They have thelegsl-and probably the moral-right to do this, althoughit's unfortunate an the personwho made the record when ithappens
"I wish there was someway of putting something onthe record label making Itclear that it isn't the latestsingle by that artist.
" It hap ned when wemoved In Fopentana from EMI,I was a bit brought down. butI could see why the companydid it."
CHRIS FARLOWE: "Thishappened to me When 'OutOf Time' was a hit, EMI re-leased 'Just A Dream.'
" I think it'a a bit of a
dirty stroke on the company'spart because too many recordson the market at one timecould make the public tiredof an artist"
TONY BARROW (Spokes.man for the Beatles and
Hems): "Re -issue of vintagerecordings can be valuable incertain circumstances. For in-stance, we agreed on to acurrent series of low-pricedalbums on Music For Pleasuremade up of material recordedover four years by Cliff Ben-
ineiersGerry, J. Kramer andPace
Sounds Inc."The only instances of ' un-
authorised ' re -issues involvingour artists concerned someold Hamburg recordings bythe Beatles, made when theyacted as a session backinggroup. They were not in anyway representative of Beatleswork.
"But it's obvious that thepublic realised this because1 gather they didn't approachanywhere near normal Beatlessales figures."
WHAT THE
COMPANIES SAY
TONY HALL (Deceit):" I deplore this sort of thingbut regrettably it's becomeestahlished record practicethese days.
"Companies sometimesspend vast amounts of moneyon an artist without getting ahit. This Is a way of gettingsome of that money back.DeCCa haven't done this with asingle for a very long time end
can't think of any instancein the immediate future whenIt's likely to happen."
PYE RECORDS: "When tinartist signs a contract with arecord company, they fullyunderstand that the companyretains the tapes and are quiteat liberty to release them atany time.
A company spends a lotof money on an artist and ifthem is a chance of gettingsome of this money back, thecompany owes it to theirshareholders to do so. Nobodyhoodwinks the artist - theyknow the position before theysign the contract. And theyare paid royalties on anysales, even after they haveleft the company.
"The company has an ahoy.lute legal right to release records in this way.
" In fact, we often get ar.lists who have left Pye askingthat their old tapes be usedin our cheap LP series. Thesealbums sell a lot of copiesand they make a lot of moneyin royalties when this happens."
PHILIPS:companywould never release a recordif it thought it would he
detrimental to the artist'scareer. However a record costsa lot of money to produce andthis is a way to recoup someof that money, should the op-portunity arise."
CBS RECORDS. "Anyproducer or company who hasrecorded an artist unsuccess-fully is interested in recoup-ing some of the losses if theartist leaves the company andhas a hit with another one. Ifone can do it by this method,there's nothing wrong with it.
" In general though, our ex-perience Is that it rarelyworks. You sell a few thou-sand records and then salesfall off. The kids are prettysmart these days, after all."
coEMI: "As far as we arencerned, this is a commer-
c al business. If it is a goodroposition to release a disc
I ke this, we will do it."

THE DAVISON EMPIRE. -The Grade Organisation is one of the biggest showbiz agencies in the world
It is currently in the news because of the takeover proposalsfrom EMI.
HAROLD DAVISON. managing director of Harold Davison Ltd.. a big part
of the Grade Organisation. is also a director of the parent company
IS America interested in British jazz,and what in your opinion are the
possibilities for British musicians inthe USA?
Do you you mean just jazz musi-cians? Every beat group member is amember of the Musicians' Union .
he's a musician. I'm not going to dif-ferentiate between a symphony orch-estra, a beat group or a jazz group inthis. The fact is, everyone has a beef.And most people, when they're flops,have a beef against the successful.
Let's be realistic: British jazz assuch didn't mean a thing when wewere sending it to the States. TedHeath was probably the only Britishband that meant anything in the daysof the big band.
We were trying to sell British jazzwhich was a copy of American jazz.Britain wasn't creating anything newor special.
Even Ted's band-what was it doingthat other American big bands weren'tdoing? It wasn't until the Beatles camealong and showed that Britain couldproduce something original that wehad anything big to sell.
It's all right our so-called hip musi-cians laughing at these guys, butthey've managed to get in on a sceneand sell millions of records, and createsomething. Maybe the Beatles. andmaybe the Dave Clark Five, are not

the greatest musicians; but they hadsomething the Americans wanted.
We sell, we don't influence. We findout what the public want and go alongwith it. Prior to the Beatles we had ahell of a job selling our music toAmerica. They took it now and againbecause they had to in order to getthe U.S. bands here, not because theywanted it.
THERE Is a feeling here, among mod-ern Jazz musicians especially, that
some kind of conspiracy exists whichprevents them from being popular InAmerica. Is there any truth in it?
We don't control popular taste, we

abide by it. As I say, we go alongwith the public. They're our marketand we have to give them what theywant or go out of business.
If you can find me a jazz group thatcan create anything like the impacton the American market that theBeatles did, I'll sell it. I find that theaverage British jazz musician is ter-ribly jealous of the beat groups. May-be is is a superior musician, but he'snot playing what the U.S. publicwants.
TALKING about the jazz marketover here, as distinct from the
USA, is business booming, declining,or in between?

Two years ago I wouldhave said I was worriedthat jazz business wasdeclining. But during thepast year or so, in our con-cert tours, we've donetremendously well. It's beennothing but successes.
The only thing that stillconcerns me about jazz isthis: jazz today is all right,but what about jazz tomor-row? I cannot see what willbe happening five yearsfrom now. But I know thatthe people we're presentingnow and doing greatbusiness with, like EllaFitzgerald, Duke Ellington,Count Basie and WoodyHerman, are names fromway back.

Another fruitful trip downthat old Indo-Jazz trail
REVIEWERS: BOB DAWBARN, BOB HOUSTON, MAX JONES
THE Joe Harriott-John Mayer "Indo-JazzSuite " was voted Best British Jazz LP of
1966 by Melody Maker Readers, and although Iwouldn't go along wholeheartedly with that selec-tion, there can be no doubt that the mixture ofHarriott's quintet with five Indian musicians pro-duced a stimulating and often exciting noise, es-pecially when the Indian and jazz rhythms gotgoing together.
A second helping comes up on "Fusions," and if any-thing it's slightly better than "Indo-Jazz Suite." The mainreason is the presence of Shake Keane, whose trumpetand flugelhorn are outstanding here. Eddie Blair was verysatisfying on the first album, but Keane blows forcefullyand freely and seems entirely at east whether pittedagainst a tabla or straight.forward jazz drums backing.
" Partite" takes up thewhole of the first side, andonce the formalities are dis-pensed with it rolls alongbeautifully with Ganley dove.tailing well with Indians. Mar-riott and Keane both have ex-cellent solos, with Keane'sflugelhorn a delight. Parts ofthis tend to bore, but oncethe combined rhythm sectionswork up a fair bead of steamit more than compensates.
The four shorter tracks areall interesting and most con-tain fine solos from Joe andShake, mainly because theyblow holes right through therather formal framework" Acka Raga " is more or lessa showpiece for Motihar'ssitar: "Subject," a Mayer -
Marriott composition builds toa nicely paced piano solo fromPat Smythe which is one ofthe best things on the record,topped off by a brace of Mar-riott and Keane outbursts.
On " Subject " the jazz con-tent is stronger and conse-quently this is the most satis-fying track by jazz standards.On the remainder, there's stilla feeling that the jazzmenhave to give way more oftenthan the Indian quintet.
If you enjoyed the first al-bum, then you'll certainly gofor this. But I still feel thatthis is a rather restricted ter-ritory to explore and in manyways this set beam this out.There's no real advance on"Indo-Jazz Suite," but never-theless It's well worth hearing

Here, though, tracks like"Kinds" and "Hash Brown"have en affiliation with popu-lar music, and the former I
would have thought stood achance as a single with anappeal similar to, say, " TakeFive."
It is on attractive 24 -bartheme by Gerald Wilson,as played here by Hodges,melodically but with cunningaccentuation and variations offorce, over a slinky juke -boxbeat, sounds dead catchy.

Nelson has scored largechunks of Prokofiev for a bigjazz ensemble and in partsSmith comes in to roar away,turning the very Russian musica decidedly blue shade.
Nelson's arrangement of thefirst part of the original"Peter" is cleverly and hum-orously done, while the sec-ond side - from "Elegy" on- are all Nelson originals.
The different characters in"Peter" are given musicalidentities in Nelson's opening- the Bird is flutes and pic-colos; the Duck is the oboe;the Wolf is two french hornsand trombones, etc.
Smith is well up to form,especially on "Cat In A Tree"and Peter Plays Some Blues,"and the whole album is donewith such taste and humourthat what could have been amonstrous, pretentious mish-mash turns out to be enjoy-able. unusual and swinging allthe way.

Britain in 1960, back in thedays when Stan Greig wasstill a drummer. The bulk ofthe material was issued herein '61 on the Collector label.
In some ways it's a goodalbum because it offers avaried selection of the thingsMemphis was doing at hispublic appearances, includingthe relaxed explanatory chatover that slow -blues piano hecan drive out as well as any-one living.
In other respects it comesoff less well. Some of Slim'ssinging is a little off, andthere is a sameness of levelabout it which leads to a cer-tain monotony -a fault heavoided on the better of hissubsequent LPs by interspers-ing a number of his fiery pianofeatures.

Mixed in with the blues ori-ginals are such classics asLeroy Carr's "In The Even-ing' and Bill Broonzy's"Rock Me Baby" (the orderof events on sleeve and labelis wrong, by the way, and" Evening" actually follows" Rock Me") and the opening" Pinetop's," on which he paysmusical tribute to the boogie-woogie champ. -

HERE'S a big ration ofElla, and if you like her
-which is practically obli-gatory if you dig singing atall -the records will speakfor themselves.
The first set is probably thebetter simply because it con-sists of 16 handpicked per-formances and scores on thegrounds of variety and muss,cal backdrops.
Not all of the tracks are AIby my standards -I certainlywouldn't have included" Sweetest Sounds," " People"and "Lady Is A Tramp "-and some of the accompani-meets are conventional, evendull. But there are many gemsand the overall standard ishigh.
"Can't We Be Friends," tostart with, is a winner. Ellaand Louis, with the OscarPeterson group, earn four orfive stars all round in com-parison with what's going onelsewhere.
Songs like " Every Time WeSay Goodbye" and "Manhat-tan" are beautifully sang,though the Buddy Bregrnanbackgrounds have a somewhatindeterminate flavour. " AFoggy Day," also from thefirst Ella and Louis set, is lesssuccessful than " Friends "but listenable.
On "April In Paris," Ellasings winningly and has thebenefit of Baste's surging orch-estra; " Let's Do It ' is a sup-erior reading, and " With ASong In My Heart" has agreat deal of languid charm.
Like Young " is one of sev-eral tracks showing thesinger's propulsive swing." Pete Kelly's " and " StLouis " are impressive enoughfor Ella, but I'd like to haveheard her supported by sym-pathetic On instrumentalists
who were inspiring to thesinger. "Midnight Sun" isone melody strong enough tomake an appeal on its ownterms, when it is well sung,even though the lyrics tend tobe over -pretentious.So, on balance, this is aquality release although I'dpersonally quarrel with thetitle. Anyway, check the titlesagainst your collection beforebuying. It is an indication ofElla's consistency and generalexcellence that the second LP,made -in one or 1W,, goes Pre-sumably, stacks lip well forstyle and overall accomplish-ment against the other seleclion which ranges over severalyears

Dylan has a soulwhich Is really his, andonly his, and it's incrediblethat Davy, or anybody else,should want to disfigure theDylan original. However,this will shatter your ear-drums with it's metallic,voluminous sound and thereare one or two fantasticallysubtle Cockney acntuce -ated words left in just sothat we can all get patrioticand rush out to buy a prettydreadful, old, Davy Jonessingle.

SANDIE'SPUPPETWHAT AN
ADVERT FORBRITISH POP!IF "Puppet On A
, String " is the bestwe can do for the Euro-vision Song Contest,then we'd better stayout of the Pop CommonMarket.
The Continent, like theworld, looks to Britain andBritish groups to set thepace in pop. Sandie Shaw'sversion of "Puppet On AString" is an example ofBritish pop being loweredto the dire standards whichexist across the Channel.
All right, the song didwin the Eurovision Contest,but is it worth it to sacri-fice our reputation abroadas the most progressive popnation in the world? -JOHN ROBINSON, Lad -broke Grove, WIT.
AS a 17 -year -old soul fan 1
read the letters from jazzfans with some amusement.
One section, seeminglycalled " avant garde " and theother (God knows what) fightlike cats and dogs. As a com-pletely indifferent neutral andignorant observer I fail to seewhat their arguments are

He carried a sitar under onearm, a Bombay duck under theother and was unobtrusivelydressed in a sari. He handedme a cheque for seven shill-ings and fourpence and in-structed me in a hoarseLiverpudlian whisper to slipinto the shop and buy "Straw-berry Fields Forever.- He

then dashed into a Rolls Roycewhere three friends were wait.ing. I trust this informationwill aid the MM's bid to pre-vent a great industry beingsmeared by skullduggery.-ROGER WILSON, Spalding,Lincs.
I ALWAYS like It when some.1 pop whizz bang wonderboycomes back from the Statesand belabours British musi-cians and recording tech-niques, like producer DennyCordell.
There are arrangers here whocan conform to Mr Cordell'svery exacting standards. butI should warn you, they tendto be arrangers rather thanfour -chord cobblers. And theyalso have an unforgivable vicein that they expect lots oflolly for manufacturing hitrecords out of some pencilledscrawl of a tune. - BOBSHARPLES, Great PortlandStreet, London.
CO Denny Cordell thinksBritish arrangers are " too
bound by the conventionalsounds of live performances
. and have the wrong con-ception of recording today."
He talks about making"single violin sound ten timesas loud as a trumpet" byclever studio techniques. Sure-ly Mr Cordell is missing thepoint. An arranger's job is towrite music and create attrac-tive sounds by the blending ofvarious instruments. It's therecording engineer's job, andnot the arranger's-to twiddleknobs and create the elec-tronic sounds that are today'sdisc scene.
Some sounds are great. Butisn't it a bit unfair on thelong-suffering public who payto see a band and find theysound nothing like they do onrecord? - ALAN GOWN,Slough, Bucks.

g to by the Tubby Hayesor Harry South Bands. yet Onemust presume such tours by
Woody Herman are sfl.Yet after watching two TVs pro-
grammes by the Herd of such
stupefying boredom and ban-
ality as to beggar description,Seems reasonable to ask Just
why every American tour seems
to rate an automatic BBC2 spot.Without raking up the disgrace-ful Albert Ayler episode again,

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
although I did think his viewscould be taken as an AprilFools' Day Joke. Hr. DawbarnCan keep his world of phonedrecording, Inane pop songs rapan
long-haired, screaming psingers. Play the white man.Mr Dawbarn! - LESLIE GAY.LOS. Newport, Isle of Wight.
Why don't Pete Townshendand Bob Dawbarn shut up?Don't they realise that withthe success of Engelbert Humpedinck and Harry Secombe thedays of getting into chartwith smashed amplifiers andBashing lights are over. andtalent counts today. - PETERHOLME, Kendal, Westmorland.
What a load or old rubbishfrom Bob Dawbarn. Let thePink Floyd attempt to sing anoperatic aria- Vera Lynn's 711s
will still be wanted in 1997, andif Dawbarn is still around then.let him produce vintage 95s ofthe slosh that's invading theears today! - F. PERRY, Whit -church, Shropshire.
I wholeheartedly agree withthat wizard of the pen BobDawbarn. If Vince Hill andEngelbert HumperdInck aresYrnbolic of ' good music " thenhand me down me walkingcane and let's all do a song anddance over the coffin of
prod
pop. Don't got mewrong, I rave over the InkSpots, Hutch, Layton and John -
and Ambrose, but not their1967 counterparts. - MIKEKIDD, Markfield, Leicester.
