Carlin also have Cilia Black’s "What Good Am I” (Parlophone) which, although failed to make the charts, garnered a lot of airplay. The major movement within the Kassner Music group during the past year has been the formation of President Records which is a completely inde- pendent organization although distributed in the U.K. by Selecta. The label has also been launched in America, Canada, France, Germany, Holland, Belgium, Spain and Italy and has had hits with “The Philly Freeze” by Alvin Cash, “It May Be Winter Outside” and “I’m Under the Influence Of Love” by Felice Taylor, as well as currently scoring with “Doggin’ Me Around” by Albert Washington.

Rosengarten of Trutone Distributors, Johannes- Provided it gets enough airplay, it could get off the ground. Because of a legal burg. dispute, it is unlikely that American audiences will see the British musical “Robert And Elizabeth,” but Grainer is now working on a new musical based on the life of British music hall star Marie Lloyd which, in collaboration with Caryl Brahms and Ned Sherrin, will go into production early in 1968. Music for Pleasure is mounting a major promotion for seven weeks during August and September which will be backed by a national consumer competi- tion with a vintage Austin 7 as first prize. The joint Paul Hamlyn/EMI company, which has sold over 6 million records since the label was launched 21 months ago, is taking advantage of the current vogue for music in the Twenties and Thirties style and promotion is to be centered around the label’s “Twenties and Thirties” repertoire including nine “new” ventage releases. It is expected that 170,000 records, additional to the normal August figures, will be sold as a result of the campaign. Albums including “The Greatest Music Hall Bill Ever Assembled” with the voices of Florrie Forde and Harry Champion; Ivor Novello’s “Glamorous Night And Careless Rapture”; “My Baby Loves To Charleston” as well as albums by Jack Buchanan, Elsie Randolph, Binnie Hale, Evelyn Laye, Sophie Tucker, etc. “The Desert Song”—a smash hit in 1936 and now enjoying a revival—features Gordon Macrae as The Red Shadow—the part he played in the 1953 film version.

Philips Records is conducting a great sales campagin for the Carnabeats and the Jagurs (who debuted respectively with “Sukisa, Sukisa, Sukisa,” (I Love You) and “Kimi-ni Aitai” last month). The groups are currently touring Japan for a big sales push on the above records. Mr. Izawa, president of Nippon Grammophon, has been in Europe on an investigation tour of the music tape market, forced by the demand for music tapes here. The firm announced its intention to release several open-reel music tapes in Stereo and Mono on Oct. 5. Nippon Columbia held an Audio Concert using Columbia Master tapes at Yamaha Hall in Tokyo, July 15, under the joint auspices of Nihon Gakki Co., Ltd. (Japan Music Instrument Co.) where classic, popular and local songs were introduced. Philips Records came out with an extraordinary single of “Kezaga Naiteiru/ Kimini Ageyo” (The Wind Is Crying/I’ll Give It You) on July 15. Composed and written by Kuranosuke Hamaguchi, it was recorded by the Spiders who returned here recently. The tune is of go-go rhythm and is expected to become a smash hit.
