www.americanradiohistory.comAmericanRadioHistory.Com A Message to the Industry: RECORD WORLD HAS DEVELOPED THE INDUSTRY'S MOST ACCURATE CHARTS

The editorial staff of Record World is pre-empting this space to ex- plain recent innovations in our chart department. During the past three months, our charts have been completely revised and improved under the guidance of Lenny Beer, our new director of research and charts editor. Mr. Beer is a market research analyst who is experienced in projecting national trends by feeling the pulse of the nation's key markets.

The changes which have been instituted since the beginning of the year have fine-tuned our charts system to the point where we have estab- lished improved retail, one -stop and rack information sources which en- able us to better evaluate initial sales patterns as well as the continued growth possibilities of each single and album in the country. Further, we have expanded our samplings to include virtually all of the major radio stations and retailers in the country's important markets. Finally, in recent weeks we have expanded our R&B Singles Chart and reinstituted an R&B Album Chart. These projects were undertaken to accommodate the growth in number and importance of black product on the popular music scene.

We would like to thank those of you who have helped by taking the time to supply us with the information we need to bring the industry the best possible charts.

We now feel we have the most sophisticated research system in the industry and the positive response from our readers continues to confirm this week after week.

(The Singles Chart appears this week on page 35.)

www.americanradiohistory.comAmericanRadioHistory.Com Dialogue A Winning Combination (Continued from page 10) singles, songs, and/or album material-any material which might be suited for overseas. I find that many of today's young artists are skeptical after having heard about rip-off's all over the world for many years. They're afraid to make deals to have their mate- rial represented overseas. In so doing, they're costing them- selves countless dollars which go uncollected in territories throughout the world. This money is either kept in the country if there's nobody to collect it for them, or, in the case where there is a representative, it's paid out to that representative on behalf of the original publisher. If nobody claims the money, within two or three years in some cases (depending on local reg- ulations), this money is just put into a general fund and never seen again. If a U.S. publisher, who is in such a situation, should wake up three and a half years later and gain a representative, to collect that back money. It seems a shame it'll be too late taping be losing such royalties due to misinformation Pictured with singer -composer Jim Weatherly (center) at recent that people should and the Pips, whose re- or the fear of having somebody steal their songs or royalties of "The Midnight Special," are Gladys Knight of Weatherly's "Neither One Of Us" recently held the number from them.
