Fortunately 30 million people watched Gary Puckett sing Simon & Garfunkel's `Keep The Customer Satisfied." The place was Biscayne Blvd., Miami, Fla. The event was the annual New Year's Eve Bowl Parade televised by NBC. The response was something you'll understand after hearing Gary's new release yourself. All in all, it appears that with so much exposure Gary Puckett's new single will definitely not be one thing: Part of the passing parade.

NEW YORK-STANLEY MYRON HANDELMAN: THE FRIENDLY MAN WHO SELLS GOOD HUMOR "Then God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth." So God created man in his own image, and called him Stanley Myron Handelman. And God looked down upon Stanley Myron Handelman and saw that it wasn't too good, but it was the best he could do under the circumstances. The years passed, and Handelman, now living in Brooklyn, New York, began working as an ice cream salesman in Brighton Beach. The work was hard, but Stanley soon put together a little song and dance routine and began selling Good Humor at a record breaking pace. Handelman has held just about every job imaginable except for selling pretzels in the street. His place though, is on the stage in front of television cameras. For Handelman possesses a certain kind of 'good humor' that is completely his own. Abstract humor. Absurd humor, if you will. Handelman's first big break came in the 60's when he toured with Vaughn Meader who created the 'First Family' album. Since then, it's been success after

success, and I can think of nobody who deserves it more than he. At first, Handelman was nervous and constantly forgot his lines. To overcome this obstacle, Handelman wrote down the key phrases of his monologues in a small notebook which he carried with him at all times. If he then forgot a line, he would reach into his jacket pocket, produce the notebook, and continue as if nothing had happened. Strangely enough, the method worked. The audiences thought it was part of the act, and Stanley was able to continue with his routine. Handelman has appeared on every major television show in the country, and if the audience doesn't respond, "it really doesn't matter." "I always do my best.

I know when I'm good, and if the audience doesn't catch on, it's their fault- not mine." Handelman's philosophy on his career can best be explained in his own words:

"My act isn't a means to an end. I love comedy. My act IS the end!" His dialogues (cont'd on page 30) HOLLYWOOD-'S DILEMMA: SUBSIDIZATION, WAGE CUTS? A few months ago we came across an item in the L.A. Times that, at the outset, seemed startling. It noted that recordings produced in Hollywood were outgrossing films produced here. (But the graffiti might have been witnessed as far back as '58 when a Columbia record (Johnny Mathis' "It's Not For Me To Say") topped the total grosses of "Lizzie," the film that introduced the song. Fouad Said of the Cinemobile Systems has sent a letter off to Richard M. Nixon which (in part) reads: " ... the motion picture industry is in grave danger. Un- employment in the various guilds-including writers, directors, actors and crafts -ranges in the area between fifty and sixty percent; worse than in the darkest big city ghettos. ... today the American Government subsidizes the Aircraft In- dustries, Merchant Marines, Oil Drilling, Farmers and other industries; but ne- glects the Motion Picture Industry which once meant so much prestige to Amer-

ica . . . we need your help in initiating action for incentive programs similar to other countries, based upon our accomplishments." It's true that other countries (England, France, Russia etc.) offer subsidies and tax relief to the arts. The U.S. did this with WPA backed Broadway and off- Broadway productions during the early thirties. But there are many here who fear government intervention in films, the nation's new fabulous invalid. Songsmith Arthur Hamilton offers an alternative. "I can't understand why all the heads of the unions don't get together in one room and decide to accept the responsibility of so called 'runaway productions' and perhaps lower their prices accordingly-make it feasible to produce more films here." Hamilton believes this should include local 47 of the Musician's Union as well. In behalf of the Composers and Lyricists Guild, representing here, Hamilton cites a number of contractual inequities with producers. But does not feel the remedies will raise the cost of film making. He does not, for example, suggest the increasing of front money payments to songwriters. "The writer, in some instances, finds himself signing 'for hire' contracts. There's a phrase in that contract that says the producer is, in effect, the creator of the song, the pro- ducer 'is author.' And most usually, under these antiquated contracts, the pro- ducer has the right to use that song in any motion picture he ever produces from that day forward-with no extra payment to the writer." Hamilon's "Cry Me a River" received its second gold recording award this past year, thanks to Joe Cocker (a dozen years back Julie London also hit the million mark with the song-Hamilton also insists that Roberta Sherwood and Barbra Streisand topped a million but neither is RIAA certified) and is currently represented in the preliminary selection for Academy nominations with a song from "Madron," a ballad titled "Till Love Touches Your Life" which he composed with Riz Ortolani. "Ours is a dark horse," says Hamilton, "since the film came out recently and is not an enormously high budgeted production; it's Four Star's first major full length picture." At the moment Hamilton is in N.Y., attending ASCAP meetings, carrying along a final draft of his 24 song musical tentatively titled "Love Play." "The book is by Nick Boretz whose father wrote 'Room Service.' It's a marvelous, unusual, outrageous script." "Love Play" is planned as a off-Broadway production for the fall of '71. THE ULTIMATE LOVE STORY-"To begin, place this record on your record player, dim the lights, and take your favorite member of the opposite sex in your arms. If you're still fully dressed at the end of the record, perhaps you should discuss your early childhood with your analyst." These are the opening lines to the jacket notes written by Anthony Newley, introducing a new Bell Ip narrated by Newley and titled "For You." Not unlike the runaway best selling sensual "This is My Beloved," which titilated millions in the mid -forties, "For You" is based on a book of poetasty by Jennings Cobb with original score composed and conducted by Neely Plumb. As to album cover, it was Newley who suggested to Neely that he (Newley) pose totally nude with "a naked chick." (cont'd on page 30) Stanley Myron Handelman Anthony Newley Dave Appell & The Tokens

AUSTRALIA-Sunday Mirror December 11, 1970-..."Jesus Christ, Superstar is being released in Australia early next month by MCA. For the past week I've been privileged to have been able to listen to an English copy of the album lent to me by a friend. It has had an extraordinary effect on me and I'm sure it will on everyone who hears it."...

SWITZERLAND-Pop Magazine ..."for the recordings, ... several attractive rock musicians with proven drawing power were engaged. Ian Gillan, of the Deep Purple, for example, plays Jesus, Michael D'Abo (formerly with Manfred Mann) mimes King Herod and Murray Head acts the part of the traitor Judas Iscariot. The other "parts" were not "under" -cast, either. And a colorfully jumbled rock -band of highest caliber plus an 85 -instrument symphony orchestra provide the musical background. What more could one want..." BELGIUM-"Pourquoi Pas" ..."It is a remarkable effort. The work is wide-ranging and, as it stands, is a good reflection of the tastes, ideas, sensitivity and even the spirit of protest of a majority of youth."...... "a valuable and courageous endeavor, a serious accomplishment, a searching whose value and import one cannot underestimate."...

The different scoring values of the targets test the skill of the Pilot and promote "Capitalizing on today's interest in competitive play. World War I and the early days of fly- ing, we designed the RED BARON to appeal to a broad, pre -sold market. Our field tests confirm our market research; everyone wants a chance to shout, `Curse you RED BARON!' and shoot him down." The RED BARON play simulates 1918 dogfight combat flying, complete with a flight control stick that vi- brates whenever the machine gun is fired. "To produce the images of the German target planes for the player to pursue and shoot down, we used exact replicas of the planes that flew in von Richthofen's famed Flying Cir- cus," Johnson said. "All the effects," Johnson explained, "have been engineered to make the play of the game look real, sound real and feel real." The player actually sees his direct hit turn the enemy plane into a fireball as it goes down in smoke and explodes.

The player chases every plane in cloudy weather, using wild evasive tactics. They climb, dive and bank left and right. Sounds of jets and machine gun fire gives the player a thrilling illusion of realism. And when he gets his sights right on his enemy and makes a direct hit, the plane bursts into flames with a loud explosion, and spirals down with a howling shriek. Meanwhile, everyone watching the player gets excited too. They become impatient to be the next pilot at the movable controls.

Sonic Fighter. Another original from Allied. Tested and proven to be the biggest money maker yet. By the way, it's the least expensive on the market. It fits anywhere. 31-1/2" wide by 38-7/8" deep by 75" high.
