And neither reaches for the obvious, some- we are beginning a three part series on The Beatles which will include their thing we like even more. early influences, their technological advances made in the recording of their "My songs tell stories," Tom told us.

Also on "'65," Berry lives again in "Rock And Roll Columbia 45607 (Dist: Paramount) Music."

And the oft -covered Leiber -Stoller song, "Kansas City" (Pamco/Straight Shooter-BMI) (Triple Three/Eden-BMI) James Gang -11325 T -Neck 935 rounds out the easily recognizable influences.

CONWAY TWITTY'S GREATEST HITS, VOL. I -Decca 5352 Decca Records had foresight in calling this album "Greatest Hits, Vol. I," because in Conway Twitty's case, there will certainly be a volume II to follow, and perhaps additional volumes after that. Conway has spent a solid decade creating country hits for himself as well as other top c&w artists such as Ray Price, When Harold Jenkins changed his name to Conway Twitty, he certainly picked a weird - sounding name, but it has become a house- hold word to country folk everywhere. The album includes "'I Wonder What She'll Think About Me Leaving," "That's When She Started To Stop Loving You," "The Image Of Me," an album * ST/8XT/4XT-11013 "Next In Line" and "To See My Angel Cry." a single * 3353 NEED YOU-David Rogers-Columbia 31506 ITll1I0tN:EIt5 \lèl?IIYIC Country music has over the past few years Easy Loving o branched into the categories of traditional and FREDDIE HART progressive. Artists would either cling to their Write It All In roots, attempting to perform one - The Whole World Holding Hands traditional H Fingerprints Showed Up on Skin hundred percent according to the rulebook, or they would get bit by the progressive bug and abandon all their heritage for "far-out" new frontiers. David Rogers does neither, he sings exactly as he feels and tells the truth to his listeners; by doing so he encompasses as many roots as he does frontiers, and delivers a lot of music for a lot of listeners. Tunes range from his recent "Need You" to the old Brook Benton hit, "It's Just A Matter Of Time."

www.americanradiohistory.com rash 6ox COIN MACHINE NEWS Bear Retiring EDITORIAL: Action Abounds After 20 Years The Location -Your Partner On New Williams On several occasions, we've broached the delicate With Wurlitzer subject of the location's role as a "silent partner" `Honey' Flipper with you in sharing the income from the machines in his place. We say it's delicate because on one hand, no operator wants his customers so familiar with the equipment that they're tempted to go out and get heir own; nor do operators want their locations familiar with all the new machines coming out since everyone wants the best when he doesn't have to pay for it. But we think each and every location has an important obligation to promote play on the equipment, especially since its personnel are in an ideal spot to do it. However, in order to generate location enthu- siasm in touting the equipment, the operator and his route people must make it a habit to pass on a com- pliment or two when the collections are up and the location folks are partially responsible. As many learned at the MOA regional business seminars, one of the most important things to any is a pat on back for a job well done.
