FEBRUARY 17, 1962

Cadence recording star Eddie Hodges, one of the most versatile and promising young talents on the entertainment scene, hears about the international success of his first recorded effort from Archie Bleyer, head of Cadence Records (seated) and Budd Dolinger, national sales manager of the diskery. The youngster’s first single “I’m Gonna Knock On Your Door” was a solid hit all over the world. He is currently repeating with his latest single “Ban- dit Of My Dreams,” now climbing the charts. On the film front, Hodges will get star hilling in the forthcoming movie version of “Advise & Consent.” He is also a leading contender for a role in the Boh Hope-Lucille Ball film version of the stage show “Critic’s Choice” in which he starred on Broadway.

International Wax Session <^GERMANY

Contests are great gimmicks for selling hit records but a recent give-away publicity stunt almost backfired on Philips Records here recently. Last Octo- ber, the hit recording of Nana Mouskouri’s “Weisse Rosen Aus Athen” (White Roses From Athens) leaped up to the top of the hit parade and began to neax the % million mark in sales. As a publicity stunt, Philips records decided tc award the 500,000th buyer of this l’ecord with a trip to Athens, all expenses paid, as a guest of the firm and Miss Mouskouri. All arrangements went well A special record was cut, put in the regular jacket and issued in the normal distribution channels. At the rate the record was selling, the x'ecord had tc turn up by November 1. As Nov. neared an end and the publicity fires begar burning low, the firm became worried. Perhaps the record was sent to a long lost uncle in Texas who doesn’t understand German and doesn’t know that he won a trip, or worse still, perhaps he does know and the bill will have to be picked up from Texas to Athens, . By the middle of Nov. the recorc had sold 750,000 and was nearing the million mark. As the year ended, Phil- ips threw up its hands and gave up the fight. However, on Jan. 3 a letter came 1. to the firm from Berlin announcing that the wife of a stoi'e salesman had re- ceived the record for Xmas, and had just learned of her luck.

Negotiations are still underway between EMI’s directors and Les Compag- nons de la Chanson for renewal of the singers’ contract. It seems that progress 12 LOLLIPOPS & ROSES 83 is far from rapid because of the terms and conditions being asked by Les Com- (Garland ASCAP) pagnons. In the same delicate area of contract renewal, note that Jacques Brel 52 LOSE HER 66 has left for Greece with his manager, Charlie Marouani, where Brel will sing, (Fajob, Kalmann ASCAP) rest and think things over before coming to a decision. Will he accept the LOST SOMEONE 49 Philips’ contract? Will he make a deal with Eddie Barclay? Will the record- 15 (Lois BMI) ing tests made in the Pathe studios lead him towards ? Or will Polydor LOVE IS THE SWEETEST THING ... 80 EMI 70 (Harms ASCAP) have preference? In any case, Brel is very undecided and if he knows what he *LOVE LETTERS 89 doesn’t want to do, he doesn’t know yet what he does want to do. ... At pres- 87 (Famous— BMI) ent, rumor has it that Marcel Amont, a Polydor star and the only French “fan- taisiste” who ranks as an international singing star, is beginning to talk about 60 MIDNIGHT 86 renewing his contract and Polydor is not the only firm involved. (Dickie BMI) And speaking of the Marouanis again, let’s mention that Gilbert who also 7 MIDNIGHT IN MOSCOW 10 (Melody Trails BMI) has that last name and who heads Caravelle music publishers, tells us that 77 MOMENTS 97 Les Chausettes Noires and Caterina Valente will record “La Lecon De Twist” (Robadon BMI) and that Richard Anthony (EMI) has already waxed the tune. Strangely MOON RIVER 30 enough, news about EMI releases came to us last week from Tutti publishers 24 (Famous ASCAP) (a Philips company) and this week from Caravelle (a Barclay company). MULTIPLICATION 26 That’s friendly co-operation. 14 (Adaris BMI) MY BOOMERANG WON'T Marcel Amont’s newest release deserves mention, for one side features the 46 old French standard, “J’ai Deux Grands Boeufs” (in an ultra modern arrange- COME BACK 48 which (Piccadilly BMI) ment reminds us of The Marcels’ “Blue Moon”) and the other side fea- 31 MY MELANCHOLY BABY 93 tures Tino Rossi’s pre-1935 hit “Marinella.” The coupling is a complete success. (Shapiro, Bernstein, Vogel ASCAP) And there’s no doubt about it—the last few months in France where records 00 are concerned seem to herald a sort of “return to the source,” so to speak. NITE OWL 84 Francis Linel is off to a new start with “Les Millions D’Arlequin” and “Nuit 16 (Conrad BMI) De Chine” and Petula Clark has made all the hit lists with “Romeo,” which is NORMAN 5 88 (Acu(f-Rose BMI) the old “Salome.” Perhaps we should suggest for the benefit of the A&R men here that if they continue to back up enough into the past, with a little luck 59 OLIVER TWIST 81 they just might happen on that tried and true hit, “Frere Jacques”! (Spiral ASCAP) Speaking of A&R men, several bravos ought to hail the more and more ef- 9 OUR ANNIVERSARY 98 fective return to the Philips fold of Mr. Canetti, who gave us Brassens, Dovos, (Keel BMI) and, to some extent, Brel.

(Ini' act BMI) Eddie and Nicole Barclay left for their winter sports vacation in Megeve 6 PERCOLATOR 32 and plan a jaunt to the U.S.A. in a few weeks’ time. (Meadowlark ASCAP) Good news from Festival records: first there’s the initial disk of Fred Gerard PICTURES IN THE FIRE 63 which will feature “Cette Nuit-la.” Then, Jacques Helian has remade his old 34 (Spoone ASCAP) success tune, “Etoile Des Neiges,” in a new arrangement, to be sure. Les Vau- POCKETFUL OF MIRACLES 58 tours have come out with “Jacky, Qu’a Tu Fait De Moi” and we wonder what 56 (Maraville ASCAP) POOR FOOL 54 they’ve done with the tune. . . . Bob Azzam has boarded the twist train with 75 (Saturn BMI) his recording of “One Finger, One Thumb Twist” and a Festival newcomer, * POP-EYE 99 Burt Blanca, has disked “Eh, Teenager, Eh” by Loos and Grelbin. (Note that 69 (Ace— BMI) Grelbin is Festival’s A&R director.) A few words about Nino de Murcia: Authentically Spanish, as the name 76 RUN TO HIM 51 indicates, Nino’s platters have silently slipped onto the dealers’ counters here (Aldon BMI) but the noise of the cash registers ringing up their sales is considerable. His 00 SHADRACK 29 latest side, the old standard paso doble, “Mi Jaca,” is now available. (Fisher ASCAP) Nothing particularly new this week on “Operation Tango” (the campaign to 1 SHE'S EVERYTHING substitute this dance for the rock and the twist) except that informed sources (I Wanted You To Be) 13 among journalists prefer to call the campaign “Operation Beart.” It is a little 65 (Alan K BMI) premature to talk about the effect of the campaign on the career of singer SHE'S GOT YOU 35 Guy Beart but at least his efforts have made the public notice him again, for (Pamper BMI) he was drifting slowly into forgetful silence. In any case, with or without a 74 SMOKY PLACES 20 (Annie-Earl, Sunflower ASCAP) special operation, the tango continues to do very well, thank you very much SOMETHING'S GOT A HOLD on its behalf! 43 ON ME 95 Regis Tahar, Tutti Publishers’ contact man tells us that Richard Anthony (Figure BMI) has disked “A Little Bit Of Soap,” known in French as “Ne T’en Fait Pas, Mon 25 *SOUL TWIST 90 Vieux.” The French lyrics were penned by Salvet and Daniel Filipacchi (the (Kylinn BMI) latter is a newcomer where lyrics are concerned—disk jockeying is his principal 55 SURFER'S STOMP 33 occupation). Bel-Air’s Pirates have also waxed the tune. (Strat, E.D.M. ASCAP) A new Johnny Hallyday recording session makes news for the journalists, SURFIN' 94 the disk jockeys and the teen-agers and Johnny’s latest included “La Faute Du (Guild BMI) 64 Twist,” lyrics by Jil Jan and Hallyday himself.

The official launching of the Liberty product in this country on its own label has just taken place. The occasion, which was marked by a large scale recep- tion at the Manchester Square Headquarters of Liberty’s new distributors, EMI Records Ltd., climaxed five months of intensive preparation since the agreement was signed last Oct. by Liberty’s president Alvin S. Bennett and EMI Records managing director L. G. Wood. Recounting the phenomenal suc- cess story of Liberty Records since the formation in 1955, Wood expressed his company’s pleasure at the new association—sentiments which are reciprocated by Bennett. The launching ceremony was performed by the label’s star Bobby Vee. Vee recently collected a silver disk to mark the quarter million British sales of “Take Good Care Of My Baby.” This, with his current chart entry “Run To Him,” is the last of his releases by Decca on the London label. His latest LP, “Take Good Care Of My Baby,” is simultaneously released by Decca on Lon- don and by EMI on the Liberty label. Before leaving for a promotional tour of France, Italy, Spain and South Africa Bobby, accompanied by Bennett, paid a special visit to the Cash Box stand at The Amusement Trades Exhibition. Three more American visitors, have been added to the long list of artists already enjoying popularity in this country. Those already here include Bobby Vee, Dorothy Provine, Eartha Kitt, Buddy Greco and Tony Orlando. Bobby Rydell returned to star in Val Parnell’s “Sunday Night At The London Pal- ladium” on Feb. 11 and will record a radio and TV show before leaving for the continent. He stops off in Paris for French TV and two shows at the famous Olympia and then goes on to Italy. EMI has just released his latest disk, “I’ve Got Bonnie” on the Columbia label. Clarence ‘Frogman’ Henry arrives for a nation wide series of one night stands and to tie in with his visit Pye released a new single “A Little Too Much.” Lastly, Jimmy Dean flies in to make his British debut on “Sunday Night At The London Palladium” on Feb. 25th. His follow-up disk “Cajun Queen” is already released on Philips. Deutsche Grammophon’s Polydor line up for Feb. ranges from the music of the 20’s to the Twist of the 60’s. LP’s include “Those Fantastic Charleston Years” by The Charleston Hot Peppers and “A Visit To New Orleans” by Franz Jackson and his Original New Orleans Jazz Band, while Helmut Zacha- rias and his Twist-Fiddle perform “Super Twist.” Still in Twist mood is a single by Max Greger and his Orchestra, “Rock Twist,” which Polydor is pre- senting in a special ‘Twisted’ Bag! Ardmore & Beechwood very happy to have Helen Shapiro’s latest Columbia waxing “Tell Me What He Said”—a good rock sound which should zoom into the charts—which they bought from Edward B. Marks Music Corp. in the spring of last year. Recorded in the States by The Playmates, the disk has never been issued here. Helen, who left school at Christmas, has a busy year ahead with a summer season at Brighton, a two-week tour in September of LONDON—The 18th annual Amusement Trades Exhibition took place las Australia and New Zealand for TV and concert dates and a two-week season week at the New Royal Horticultural Hall. The exhibit proved to be a tremer at the Olympia, Paris in October.

In spite of the versions that already have been released, Sobedi S.A. re- !orded “Happy Jose” (“Ching Ching”) which is backed with “African Twist,” md played by Roger Eggermont and his Combo. Sobedi also released a new recording of the showband of Leo Martin. The ;itle of the EP is “Tiroler Freude” and sales are very satisfying. This re- a :ording is a “live” recording and was done while this famous orchestra was >n stage. The EP can compete with the best “Oberbaiern” recordings that al- eady are on the market. “Plaster Of Paris” on Sobedi’s Newtone label is a number with a very spe- :ial beat. It can be danced either in rock or in twist. This is very important, ’or although the twist is very popular in our countries, everybody isn’t yet ible to dance it. G. Martens of Sobedi phoned Cash Box that this is one of the 'easons for the disk’s success. News from Fonior: Caterina Valente and her brother Silvio Francesco have ’ecorded a wonderful Twist in the French language: “Lecon De Twist.” In the i Berman version this number is called “Popocatepetl Twist.” This Decca re- cording was recently released in Belgium.

Tune is taken from Gray’s album “Songs Of Broken Love Affairs” and was released as single because of the response that it has received.

In “My Name Is Mud” the Lawton Williams who is currently riding the charts with “Anywhere songster reads a jumpin’ quick-paced country novelty ballad with a fine There’s People” on Mercury unleashes his vocal talents full-blast on down-to-earth delivery.

Editorial How many industries must there be in this country who long for an association to point the way. How many look for leadership but find only token representation? It is rare to find a trade association with the vitality and know-how necessary to assume the role of leader insofar as problems of national scope are concerned. Each in- dustry has its individual hurdles to overcome and unless a spokesman for the industry is on hand to serve its function, an entire industry can be affected—Govern- ment control, heavy taxation and unfair legislative rul- NAMA ings being just three cases in point. But how many associations will take these problems and others in stride and at the same time look to other areas, namely new markets, for its members? Like the youth of too many years ago who toiled ’til the day of Association recognition arrived, alas there are not many left today. *

There is one trade association that doesn’t sit and wait for anything. They don’t have the time. We speak of the National Automatic Merchandising Association. The At vending industry is in good hands as long as NAMA is at the helm. Speaking of legislative problems as we did at A the outset, NAMA’s string of victories last year makes some average association counselors look like ambulance chasers. The victories were broad in scope. They de- Work fended the operator’s line of profit from excessive tax, abolishment of certain types of equipment, and unfair licensing. NAMA’s courtroom calendar for ’61 includes

1 success in every phase of the vending business. The annual NAMA Convention needs no introduction. It is probably one of the most successful and meaningful 4 trade shows conducted. Similar success is being devel- oped at the Western Conference, a west coast trade meet designed to insure coverage of the thousands of operators who otherwise would not be a part of an annual show. i 4 Regional councils have been the reason the industry is informed on a local basis. Operators are cognizant of local problems as well as national ones.

The latest program of NAMA is a shining example of wliat NAMA is doing for its members. New markets are the lifeblood of many industries. The vending business is no different in this respect. And NAMA has recognized this fact, long before the need for new markets becomes serious. As a matter of fact, the vending industry probably has more growth aspects to it than many other businesses. The need for additional i T markets will eventually come, however, and NAMA has taken the reins early in the game.

On target for ’62 are the nation’s parks. A market rep- resenting more than 200 Federal Parks, 2000 State Parks, and literally thousands of municipal parks di- rected locally all over the face of America. The estimated number of people who visit these parks each year has grown to 500 million. Last month (CB Jan 27, p 56 NAMA announced that an eight-page article was mailed as a supplement to the January-February issue of Grist, official publication of the National Conference On State Parks. Readers of this publication represent planning boards, commissioners, recreational consultants and officials in an executive ca- pacity. They were treated to an extensive layout of illus- trations, articles, and specific examples of just how vend- ing machines can help the parks overcome a tremendous feeding problem. The supplement was then mailed to NAMA members with instructions on how to make the most of it in the individual operator’s territory, listing A the parks available in each area and the most suitable approach to land this new business. In short, the Parks Program is highly efficient. So is NAMA. It should hap-

Central feature of the stand was the Juvenile Carousel 28 seater with animals, motor cycles and motor cars. The motor cycles are manufac- tured by Lenaerts of Belgium. AINSWORTH CONSOLIDATED INDUSTRIES (GREAT BRITAIN) LTD. General Manager Hal Eldridge reports that business eclipsed that of last year mainly due to the fact that the Aristocrat product is now estab- lished and accepted in this country.

Eldridge comments that last year the .
