In addition to their oicn BARCLAY operation, Eddie and his wife, JSicole also control the new and successful company, “BEL-AIR.” Both the Barclay and Bel-Air labels distribute such inter- nationals as MERCURY, ATLAYTIC, KAPP, PRESTIGE, VERVE, MARDI-GRAS, SUPRA- PHOy, ERATO, HISPAVOX, PALETTE, and CARAVELLE.

Already one of the major forces on the European market, Eddie Barclay slipped another high card into an Ace-high full house by signing a contract for the distribution of EXITED ARTISTS RECORDS just a few days before the above celebration.

Our weekly Gab from Gar—Larry Gar of WLGG-Laurens, S. C.—contains “DARLING some comments on the current scene that many of you will find interesting, debatable, and controversial. So let’s start a controversy with a quote from I’M HOME” Larry’s sheet: “I have read with alarm a number of news letters to the trade from various jockeys around the nation. Darn if all of them don’t have a beef of some kind, some of them about things that have very little to do with THE MANDELLS them at all. I think it’s about time that the jockeys get back to reporting CHESS 1794 record action and what people like, rather than trying to be Walter Winchells (with all due respect and apologies to WW). We are in the music business, not the critic business. I don’t say never speak up but confine it to music and good radio and TV.” We’ve got to admit that Gar makes sense but not “straYoeVI^ being on your end of things, we defer from passing judgment. What are some THE JUNGLE" of your feelings on the subject? B/W “DON’T SAY GOODBYE” RCA Victor has designated June as THE VIBRATIONS Chet Atkins Month. It is a small trib- ute to a large talent. As one of the CHECKER 982 label’s key A&R men (head of the Nashville studio), Chet has recorded many outstanding hits, including those by Jim Reeves and Floyd Cramer.

The Regents Last week being National Flag Week, WACE-Springfield stepped out in a campaign to encourage the display of Old Glory.

Quite a bash, hey? . . . Bryce Bond, formerly of WNOR- 19413 Norfolk and now with WGLI-Babylon, L.L, said one of the reasons he moved closer to NY was to further his acting career.

Stig Anderson, Swedish composer of “Klas-Goran,” came to Holland espe- cially to meet Ria Valk at Amsterdam Airport. Ria just arrived from Monte Carlo and was welcomed by Theo Van Der Meer, managing director of L.C. Phonogram. In his speech, he congratulated her with her first gold record, after which he asked Anderson to present her with it. Also present were Wim Van Vught and Willy Rex of publishers Altona, which published the song in Holland. Why was Anderson there ? Because he wrote the hit that brought Ria Valk such tremendous success: “Klas-Gdran”—or—as it became popular in Holland: “Rocking Billy” (Fontana).

Selling figures are rising quickly. The complete history of music in sound under the name of “Orbis Lexikon,” a gigantic effort of the German recording industry, introduced on the market by Delta, got a lot of approval from critics.

Your Last Export

Shipment Is The The importance of the export market jp’ows in proportion to the growth of the market itself. Where Important One once a wholesaler would make it a point to discuss Most the export business conducted by his firm as some- thing special and apart from the regular run of trade, today most wholesalers doing business with the overseas buyers take the export trade in stride.

This is a good sign because once a new phase of a business can be absorbed so completely into the daily routine of a coin machine outlet, the chances

are this function is being carried out efficiently.

There is always the danger, however, that the export business a firm carries on can he short changed in

the process of it becoming an accepted part of the business. A damaged machine shipped to a buyer in the States is reported by the receiver almost before the

shipping crate is removed. This is to be expected. A foreign shipment, however, can arrive in an unsatis- factory condition and result in immediate cancella- tion of future business with the shipper. Notice may never he given nor may a reason he offered. Just a plain and simple refusal to buy any more machines from that same firm. While this may be unfair, be- cause of the distance between shipper and receiver and the details that go into an overseas order, some-

times it is wiser to take the loss and write it off than to go to further expense and complain.

This example is presented here simply because it

is a common occurance. One way to prevent this

from happening to you is to double check all ship- ments before sending them out. This does not how- ever, prevent damage from occuring in transit. Your reputation and future business lies with the last shij)- nient of machines. Forget the previous favors, price deals and other generosities which have passed be- tween you and your export customer. “What have vou done for me lately” is an international idiom. The next time you do business with an overseas buyer, take the opportunity to ask him if he was

satisfied with the merchandise. If the answer is

“yes,” he’ll appreciate your asking. If the answer is

“no” you will at least find out why and correct it possibly in time to save the account. If it’s worth

handling, it’s worth holding on to.
