BY EDWARD MORRIS NASHVILLE Although SESAC's principal office remains in New York, the local branch has greatly expanded its functions since moving into new headquarters at 55 Music Square East last September. The performing rights society now has approximately 30 on its Nashville staff. As a result of its ability to expand here, SESAC has moved all of its mainframe computer data process- ing most of its accounting, and cer- tain top executive functions, to Nashville. Robert Thompson, who was named SESAC's president just over a year ago, maintains his office Art Directors here, as does executive vice presi- dent Vincent Candilora. "What it boils down to is trying to look into the future and see those Media Buyers things that involve substantial cost reductions -both by way of effi- ciency and just in terms of raw Executives costs," Thompson says. He predicts Account that other music -related companies will eventually discover the econo- my of doing business in Nashville.

46 BILLBOARD JUNE 14, 1986 www.americanradiohistory.com orne video Video Is Key In W. German Film Industry FRANKFURT The consistent growth of the video industry in West Germany and its importance in the context of the national econo- my will be emphasized at the Sec- ond German Video Convention to be staged in Wiesbaden Sept. 12-15. Government support of the busi- ness will be highlighted by the "pa- tron" presence of Martin Bange- mann, minister of trade and com- merce. In just over five years, the prere- corded videocassette business has become a vital part of life for Ger- man film producers, representing an important cut of total revenue from films. Use of feature films in the video business represents 90% of total turnover. "Video revenue has clearly be- come an absolute necessity in en- abling feature film producers to cover investment and box -office risks," a convention organizer said. After the initial boom period, the German video business went through a period of consolidation last year. There are some 4,500 vid- eo dealers nationwide, and the total video retail turnover in 1985 was $240 million, or around 75% of the total film market take. An additional $160 million was turned over by video film suppliers, the printing laboratories, and the wholesale sector. Video now pro- vides 20,000 jobs in Germany. The total number of VCRs in use in German households is now about 7 million. In 1985, there were 108 million prerecorded videotape rent- als. Sixty -seven percent of German cinemagoers are less that 25 years old, 18% are ages 25 to 34, and only 15% are over 35. But according to BVV, the federal video trade associ- ation, the video trade is very differ- ent. Just 28% are 24 years old or younger, 42% are ages 25-34 group, and 30% are over 35.

www.americanradiohistory.com THE FIRST TWO SINGLES HOT 100 FROM THE SOON- TO -BE- RELEASED SINGLES SPOTLIGHT MOTION PICTURE, A weekly look behind the Hot 100 with Michael Ellis.

AMERICAN ANTHEM. N MY OWN" BY Patti LaBelle & Michael McDonald (MCA) scores a double triumph this week, hitting the top of the Hot 100 and achieving RIAA gold certification. It reached No. 1 by combining a huge sales base with strong increases in radio airplay points. The two enjoy a wide margin in points over the next -highest bulleted records. ELEVEN RECORDS debut on the chart this week, including "Ru- mors" by the Timex Social Club (Jay), which enters the chart at No. 81 and becomes the fifth indie -label record on the current Hot 100. Other indie hits are Boys Don't Cry at No. 15 (Profile), Magazine 60 at No. 56 (Baja), Mai Tai at No. 73 (Critique), and TKA at No. 86 (Tommy Boy). "Rumors" is already a big hit in Texas, where it's No. 3 at 93Q Hous- ton, and in California, especially in the group's native Sacramento.

SALES MOVERS: Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer" (Geffen) nabs the Power Pick /Sales award with a 10 -point jump to No. 22. It's No. 10 at K -106 Baltimore, where PD Ralph Wimmer says local album sales are top five, and single sales took off like a shot. "It's one of the fastest growing, most active records on our list." Another big sales gainer was Janet Jackson's "Nasty" (A &M), which is No. 1 at KMEL San Francis- co and No. 2 at FM -102 Sacramento.

AIRPLAY MOVERS: "Invisible Touch" by Genesis (Atlantic) is the Power Pick /Airplay for the second week in a row and is one of the top sales gainers as well. It is taking strong upward jumps at radio, includ- ing 19 to 5 at WKDD Akron. PD Matt Patrick says it's testing 100% familiar in call -outs with a near -90% favorable response. "Phil Collins has always done well with our core demographic of females 18 to 34." It's also top 10 at five other reporters. The biggest gainers in new radio adds were Peter Cetera (Warner Bros.) at No. 49, already top 20 in Madison, Wis., and Portland, Ore.; Billy Joel (Epic) at No. 46; Robert Palmer (Island) at No. 68; and the Pet Shop Boys (EMI -America) at ANDY TAYLOR No. 44 with top 15 radio reports from Buffalo and L.A. "TAKE IT EASY" MORE HOT MOVES: 38 Special (A &M) moves to No. 26; it's top 10 at (7- 89414) 17 reporters, including No. 3 at WMJQ Rochester. Blow Monkeys (RCA), at No. 39 nationally, is 10 in 12" PROMO (PR 896) top Boston, L.A., and San Francisco. Belinda Carlisle (I.R.S.), up to No. 42 on the chart, is top 20 in Pitts- burgh and Miami. The Models 64* (Geffen) is No. 38 on the Hot 100, with eight top 15 radio reports, including No. 8 at KHYT Tucson. The S.O.S. Band (Tabu), up three places to No. 47, is top 15 in Boston, Hartford, New York, and San Francisco, and No. 1 at KMGX Fresno. Jermaine Stewart (Arista) jumps to No. 51, with top 10 reports from KIIS -FM L.A. and 95-SX in Charleston, S.C. Brian Phillips, PD at 95-SX, says Stewart's record was immediately No. 1 in requests and is the station's fourth -best-testing call -out record. "Sales on the single have been tre- mendous. It has an upper -demo appeal . .. like the old KC sound."
