NEW WINNERS

NORMAN CONNORS I

Connors

Over 300,000 LPs sold so far and stands a chance to go platinum. The single from the LP “You Are My Starship” is climbing very fast up the charts and station ads are tremendous. The single is also a National Break-out this week.

Aquarian Dream is a new eight member group discovered and produced by Norman Connors. Connors says Aquarian Dream’s music is a cross between Rufus and Earth, Wind

And Fire. Buddah says that they are soulful and innovative and they’re one of the best new groups to come along in a long time.

Remember that Connors is famous for his ability to discover and nurture important new talent. Nearly everyone who has played and recorded with him has gone on to sign their own recording contract. Connors sure knows talent when he hears it.   BDS 5612

You just can’t put a label on Michael Henderson. Michael likes and plays all kinds of music. After all, he’s played with everyone from the Rolling Stones to Aretha Franklin to Stevie Wonder to Dr. John to the Jackson Five. And if that’s not enough, he’s spent the last five years as the bass player with Miles Davis. Michael’s new LP contains something for everyone—from jazz to R&B to pop. All the tunes are originals and he’s even included his own version of “Valentine Love”—a tune he composed for a Norman Connors LP. The success of “Valentine Love” was only the start. Also with Connors, Michael again scored on the charts with “We Both Need Each Other,” and “You Are My Starship.” Just one listen to his album, will convince you that there are plenty more hits to

come from Michael Henderson.   BDS 5662

Diana Marcovitz is a unique talent whose brand of comic-sad songs have won her fans across the country. With her exuberant piano playing, she sings brilliant satirical songs with a penetrating sense of humor.

But don’t take our word for it. As the Village Voice put it—“There’s a bit of the musical comedy performer, the barrelhouse blues singer, the ragtime pianist and a host of other things in her style, all of which combine to suggest one of the brightest new faces in recent months.

Diana Marcovitz—Joie De Vivre—a lady and an album that you’re going to hear a lot more about! ! !   KSBS 2614

This great double pocket package contains the timely “Election Year Rag” and the unforgettable “City of New Orleans.”   BDS 5665-2

I Don’t Care creates a music within the rock ‘n’ roll idiom which perfection is a prime consideration and in which all musical forms are allowed to mingle.

From “Radio & Records” Powerhouse Rock and Roll band polishing the edges with tasteful Jazz arrangements.

Sensational guitar work by Frank Pellino sparks an energetic debut collection for a group that many people will soon “care” about. A purist’s delight. “Fire” “Packard Electric Blues” “Call It What” “Gone Away”   KSBS 2617
