This could well set the industry back two years, and onemight ask "Can a responsible radio station, program Canadiancontent safely?"

Chuck leaves CHSJ Saint John to become a radiopersonality at CFCO Chatham.Rockin' Robbert (Bob Gibbons) reports a smashing selloutand possibly many can learn from his comments that in a countrywhere it is suggested there is NO Payola, the investment of moneyand time is wasted on a music industry.The article is very thought provoking, and possibly many of usshould take heed of the standards by which product will be judged.Keeping in mind that we are competing against 30 years of experience in recording, and studios that are valued at 500,000 to 750,000. It therefore stands to reason that it will take that muchskill, that much money, and that much time to become competitive.Thepolicies of Canadian stations, and programmers areshow for the Chartbusters on their appearance with CHSJ in Saintstrange, and it is questionable what constitutes a HIT record,and talent. Essentially radio stations are not in the record busi-favorite in the Maritimes.David Lyman of CKY Winnipeg writes to tell us of the recentness, and merely use records as a convenience to programming.

This is a drasticchange from their standard format of adult programming, but it isbeing well received from both a teen and adult point of view. It'sencouraging to hear news of changes such as this. Many who claimto be "family stations" rarely program for the teenager.ONE MAN'S OPINIONIn a recent article in the Toronto Telegram's supplement"After Four", Bob McAdory, disc jockey at CHUM, writes aboutGARBAGE"Garbage! That's What They'd Have Me Play - Pure Garbage". Hegoes on to say "Canadian disc jockeys are getting a little tired ofthe wailing, whining, and moaning of record companies that theyare not promoting Canadian talent". He emphasizes that Canadiandeejays would give preference to a Canadian artist "providing thatthe record is good." And he demands that the record be "goodenough to compete with anything that's produced anywhere." Takinga positive approach he goes on, "This rarely happens."He takes a full swing at the entire Canadian industry with theexception of three records and generalizes "You'd be amazed atsome of the unbelievable garbage that is produced in this country".THE ALBUM TO FIT YOUR FORMAT The Top Stars appear on Capitol - Nat Cole, Al Martino,Nancy Wilson, Glen Gray, Mrs. Mills, Peggy Lee,George Shearing, Stan Kenton, Bobby Darin, Vera Lynn,Buck Owens, Vic Damone -In a comment on Canadian talent he asks comically "This is talent?"AND THERE ARE MORE TO COME - SOON!our stand that records must be judged on their ownmerits.

I consider this quite an honour and thiscolumn will give me a chance to get news to you as soon asit happens . . if not sooner. Although much of what goes onin the, music industry stems from many American productioncentres, New York is regarded as the "heart" of the musicbusiness. I hope you find this column informative.The most talked about record on the scene right nowis "Leader of the Pack" by the Shangri-las. The questionasked most often (even by people who haven't heard therecord) is, "Have you heard the new Shangri-las' record?It's a smash!"Although a lot of American publishers and record producers are finding the going rough because of the Britishcraze, many of them are enjoying their greatest success dueto unexpected releases. Today a publisher prays for a smashin England knowing the record will then be released in theUS. There are American publishers enjoying the success ofThe Beatles, The Animals et al, in a way that would neverhave been possible before.A very talented folk singer by the name of BonnieDobson will be recording shortly for Mercury Records here.Many people think she has the potential of a Joan Baez.Bonnie is a Canadian girl.It's wonderful to realize that records like "On TheStreet Where You Live" by Andy Williams and "Funny Girl"EXTRA THE THINGS IN THIS HOUSEEXTRA WHEN I FALL IN LOVEEXTRA I DON'T KNOWEXTRA WHAT IN THE WORLDEXTRA I WON'T TELLBobby DarinParis SistersSteve AlaimoDovellsTracey Dey(Cap)(Qua)(Spa)(Qua)(Qua)0000CHNSON THE BEACHCKEYCFUNCKRCCHECCKCKSAY YOUC KOMCFCFCKWSCKYLCHSJCHUMCJMEby Barbara Streisand can get played on all the "Top 40"stations and that "Summer Song" by Chad and Jeremy andElvis' "Ask Me" can get exposure on many of the "goodmusic" stations.Don Costa, who travels more than any ten people isvery excited about an LP by Kathy Keegan, soon to be released on his DCP label.

CETTE ETIQUETTEMarshall, born in Barrie was a first-rate amateursinger at the age of six and became a professional at theage of 13. When television started in Canada, Phyllis wasPhyllisthere, having gained a great deal of popularity through BingWhittaker's radio show "Starlight Moods" in which she wasfeatured. The late Don Hudson was on the verse of producinga TV show "The Big Revue" and after watching Phyllisat work, tagged her for the show. Phyllis then became a TVpersonality.Phyllis has tried her hand at retiring (feeling she shouldgive more time to her family) but showbiz was in her bloodand after a couple of years absence came back with a bangthat could be heard from Halifax to Vancouver. Her club dateswere record dates. Always playing to capacity audiences inCanada her fame reached the UK and after cutting her firstLP "That Girl Phyllis Marshall" on Columbia she enplanedfor England and again packed houses. This LP isn't by anymeans her first attempt at recording. Phyllis has cut manyrecords before but these are stored in her basement.
