The significance and growth of Country & and Folk Music was evidenced in Nashville November 20th, 21st and 22nd. Hundreds of the nation’s leading deejays and music industry personnel gathered in this city to add the crowning touches which made ’s 28th Anniversary a glorious success! The three-day festival, which is definitely slated to be an annual affair will be remembered for some time . . . and, can be marked down now as one of the outstanding events of the year . . . and positively a great stride Marty Licklider Tommy Sutton forward for all who engage in this beloved American Music. (See other stories Art Barrett Ashtabula, Ohio in this issue of Cash Box.) Just received word that WICA— WING— Dayton, Ohio WAVY—Portsmouth, Va.
