THE ASSOCIATION TO
PERFORM AT UM, FRIDAY
The University of Montana ASUM Program Council
presents The Association this Friday evening at 8 p.m.
in the University Theater.
The Association is a new singing group that covers the
widest range of the popular idiom. The group has been called
the first "show rock" group because they can play bluer
blues than the Rolling Stones, harder hard-rock than the
Raiders and put more folk into folk music than the Kingston
Trio.
The six-man group practiced feverishly for five months
to get their sound perfected before their opening in the
Pasadena Ice House.
Their first big hit was "AlongCame Mary," followed by
"Cherish," which sold over a million copies.
The members Of this extremely popular group are Jim
Yester, guitar; Ted Blueshel, drums; Gary Alexander, guitar;
Terry Kirkman, guitar; Brian Cole, bass; and Russ Giguere,
guitar.
Tickets are on sale at the Lodge desk on the University
campus and last reports say that only a limited number are
left.
