He awaits the winner of Round Two which pits Attorney/Author/Dynamo Don Passman against 0WB legal eagle and the man who loves to litigate, David Altschul.

Passman and Altschul receive two votes each — Passman received his votes from family members while Altschul scored votes from Murray Gitlin and Mel Lewinter. Meanwhile, one dynamic (Ed Note: Zzzzzz) write-in candidate charges to an unexpected and shocking write-in victory. We're talking about Arista personality powerhouse Roy Lott (Ed Note: Zzzzzzz.) ebb This leads us to our new matchup and our new question: Beautiful Columbia Promo goddess Lisa Wolfe is pictured with the second biggest joke she held in her hand durilg the course of that memorable night she wed Columbia Vice Presi- dent Fred Ehrlich (not pictured).

Three years later, he's OM, just hired new PD Bob West and had a sensa- tional book. The guy's entitled to stop and smell the roses — relation even if all he wants to do is talk about Bob — but an Ill wind that blows no good in the form of HITS' radio jezebel Connie "Francis" Breeze was enough to send him scurrying for the air freshener.

I like to say, we don't have good people behind us, we have good people right with us. We're not a big company, but many of our philosophies are shared by A&M, which is one of the reasons that we're here. It's a smaller operation and everybody knows what everyone is doing. That's the way we like it. What have you learned from your experience with Flyte Time that has helped you launch and operate Perspective? Jimmy: We were fortunate in that we started out as artists and entrepreneurs because no one would hire us, so we had to make our own work. We would go out, rent a place to play and send out flyers. We basically had to be businessmen early in our careers. That taught us music and business go together. This is a learning experi- ence for us because running a label is a little bit different than just handing the projects in and forgetting about them. Now, we see the project though the process of selecting album covers, videos, directors.., every aspect of the marketing. We couldn't have better people help us than Jerry Moss and Herb Alpert.

JIM McDER MOTT PGD, NEW YORK lvana is the human embodiment of Jim McDermott's worst nightmare. It all started when he was elevated to the dizzying heights of being the boss of each and every PDR employed by PGD (PolyGram Group Dis- tribution). Little did Jim realize that some of his reps had been pre- programmed by Ivana to be perpetually inquisitive, leaving him feeling hopelessly paranoid and (bluntly) caught with his pants down.

PoMo, complete with the obligatory funk backbone, gardens of love, and a lead singer who has a lot of "avante garde" influences. Despite derivations, and production that often neutralizes the impact of this "power trio," the band retains an original and soulful iden- tity, grooving smooth through "You Are Mine," and waxing an- themic on "All Together." Yep, this one goes to "1 I." (DD)

Warner Diva Scores Big! KARYN KONQUERS! When Karyn White wants to get "Romantic," everybody stands at attention. When the losers at this mag try it, people con- template moving to a foreign country. The track caused instant pandemonium in Radioland, scorin' the Most Added title and grabbin' serious rotations. "We were on it from DAY ONE!," boasted the dynamic duo of Chuck At- kins and Dave Wynter, PD & MD of St. Louis powerhouse KMJM, the only men in radio who admit to knowing Graham Armstrong. "The combination of Karyn's vocals and Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis' production is WORKIN'! It's magic." The Flyte Tyme team has done an unbelievable job with Karyn's spectacular voice on "Ritual Of Love"s varied tracks. The uptempo JAMS scream SMASH, and the ballads will rule Quiet Storm for a LONG time. Sit back and watch it fly!
