NEW YORK-PRODUCER, ROLE YOUR OWN The producer's role must be defined in terms of its time and the need of recording performers. While once it might have been enough to work with artists in completing studio details and finishing the making of a record, today's producer has to expand his function to fill needs created by a changed artist personality. Speaking for his own operation, Alan Lorber pointed to the alterationsin attitude by many of today's acts as it influenced his work as producer. "Many musical groups joining the business today are distrustful of the 'establishment' part of the industry. They are unable to communicate and generally fail to make an impression as a newcomer seeking someone as a listener. "Because of this, groups looking to place new records become quickly dis- couraged and leave the placement role to their producer. This was not the case a few years ago, when performers could be seen daily going to every office along Broadway." On top of that extra duty, there are several other functions that have fallen on the shoulders of a producer to perform. The emotional makeup of young groups have made them more break-up prone than ever, and the producer has no choice but to become an adhesive, holding the members of a group to- gether. Otherwise, he is faced with losing all the work put into developing a talented act. More subtly, the producer is called on to take the role of authority figure. Showing artists where to go and telling them how to go about getting things done is part of this. But also working with a group as one who is familiar with its work and has the experience to aid development must be done. This has also become part of the producer's job. Functioning in all these areas, the producer and his office become something of a center of action for the group.It is the place and person where activity is focused and the central point from which an act knows it can gain its impetus. Once underway, the problem of facing the "establishment"is brought up again in working with labels, publishers and lawyers. And, as before, the pro- (cont'd on page 40)

HOLLYWOOD-LAUGH-IN LEFTOVERS We'd guess that the most monumental news item coming fromthe coast this past week was not the Bill Gavin Seminars nor the Bill Drakeappointment pronouncements (Bernie Torres as v.p. for administration of AIR and BillWatson as v.p. of Drake-Chenault) nor 's savageindictment of Mike Curb. For usit was Gary Owens' "live" remote dedication broadcast from KMPC's newly renovated coffee lounge. We're told that an impressive array of light civic dignitaries flatly refusedin- vitations to attend (showing foresight not normally associated with those inpub- lic office). But that the Verdugo Hills High School's 96 -member girl'sdrill team was with Playboy doll and Largo stripper Gina Dair who arrived, bikini -clad, to officially open the coffee room with a typewriter ribboncutting ceremony viewed by a 72 piece band and tuxedo clad WayneDu(Gary's engi- neer). His full name is WayneDu Moon Comes Over The Mountain. Butfriends call his WayneDu We Eat. For months, we are told, KMPC sought a new moniker for the lounge. An international contest was inaugurated. Countless thousands of suggestions ar-

rived on Gary Owens' desk . . . most of them unprintable.Still, one of the unprintables was chosen. First prize went to Neil Mondloch of Van Nuys (he named the lounge "Jock's Trap") and for this he was allowed to toss outthe first danish. Runner up was Owen's wife. She gets a three month all expense trip to Paris, Rome, the Orient and Verdugo Hills. Her suggestion (a sub -title to "Jock's Trap") is "The Make Believe Ballroom." Pluggers are cordially invited to visit the miniscule lounge. Prices have not been raised-coffee remains at 50 cents plus tip and bagels are equally ex- orbitant. Monies derived will go to a special fund to aid unemployed comics. Otherwise known as comedy relief. A Sunset strip contest is in the planning stage with Gina Dair judging. Winner is promised an autographed Candy Barr-if she's available.

RESPECT TO THE OTHER MAN Music and words by : Luther Ingram, Johnny Baylor, Johnny Northern, and Randell Stewart Mama used to take me across her lap, She used to whip me with her strap When I was bad. I didn't know at the time, Being bad could lead to crime. But now I'm glad. Cause she kept me on the double, And I stayed out of trouble, Now I understand. When she said, "Boy, you got to give a heck, Promise you'll always give Respect To The Other Man." When I used to make fun of others She said, "No, not to your brothers," And that ain't all. "When someone is feeling low, Think of the nicest things you know To make them feel tall." I will neyer forget what Mama said When she kneeled down and prayed, "Father, guide his hands, Put your arms around his neck, Make him proud to give Respect To The Other Man." Oh, but now that I'm a man, God has taken my Mother's hand, But I'll carry on. Though sometimes I'll have to weep, Mother's love I'll always keep, Cause she made me strong. And if I should ever have a son, We gonna have a lot of fun, And I'll teach him to understand. When I say, "Boy, you got to give a heck, Promise you'll always give Respect To The Other Man."
