More On AOR Reporting

R &R: ,The KBPI letter on the front page of your May 14th

issue prompted me to write this letter: 1) KOME has not received any 'pressure" from record

company representatives to report certain records "Hot" which are not, nor report records "Added" which we are not playing. We have on occasion been asked by record company people to report records of theirs we have added. We were neveraware this practice existed.

2) KOME has always provided accurate reports to R &R as well as to other trades and we firmly believe our fellow AOR correspondents have the same practice.

In my opinion reporting falsely does nobody any good, as it adversely affects the reporting station's credibility, the AOR chart, other AOR stations who may draw information from the chart and indirectly the sales of the record(s) in question. KOME fully supports R &R's AOR chart as an accurate indication of what is happening weekly, and we use it as a programming tool.

Sincerely,

Dana Jang Music Director

KOME /San Jose

Who Really Was First With Satellite Broadcasts?

R &R: I am writing this letter in regards to an article in

your May 21 s t edition of Radio and Records. In the Radio News section of your newspaper there

appeared an article about RKO radio doing a live broadcast via satellite with Australian radio. I would just like to state that RKO isn't the first to do this.

On April26, 1976 Radio One Inc., owners of KYOS -AM and KMYT -FM did a live radio hook up via satellite with the cooperation of Overseas Telecommunications. The broadcast lasted one hour with an exchange of culture and music being the main focal point. The radio hook up was with radio station 2AVin the twin cities of Albury- Wodonga, Australia.

I would appreciate if you would clear the fact up that RKO is not the first with this broadcast.

lf, for your records you would like a copy of the broadcast, please let me -know and 1 will gladly send you one:

Clive Dá vis Pleads Guilty Clive Dais, Arista Records President, pleaded guilty in Federal Court Monday to one

of six tax evasion counts. Davis will be sentenced July 15th and faces maximum penalties of five years imprisonment and $10,000 in fines.

The guilty plea was for $8,000 owed the government in 1972. Davis had been charged with owing more than $158,000 in taxes for the 1971 -1973 period when he was President of Columbia Records. The government has dropped the other five charges against Davis.

Alan Hirschfield, Columbia Pictures Industries President praised Davis for his accomplish- ments in taking Arista Records to a major position in the record industry in less than two years and further noted that the company intends to continue its relationship with Davis as the President of Arista.

Willie Nelson Picnic Cancelled Willie Nelson and his manager, Neil Reshen, announced that they are calling off

this year's Fourth of July Picnic due to their failure to obtain a Texas mass gathering permit. The Gonzales County Commissioners Court voted unanimously May 19th to refuse a mass gathering permit for the concert, which was to take place from July 2nd to 4th in Gonzales, Texas.

As a result, Nelson has decided to suspend all activities on this year's Picnic. Such artists as Waylon Jennings, Jessi Coker, Kris Kristofferson, Rita Coolidge, Emmylou Harris, Jerry Jeff Walker, David Allan Coe and Rusty Weir had been scheduled to appear at the concert, which has become a major musical event, attracting all types of music lovers to Texas for the past three years. This was to be the fourth annual picnic to be put on by the Country entertainer, which last year drew over 90,000 persons to Liberty Hill, Texas.

According to Nelson, "They've turned down my permit application, se as far as I'm concerned it is off. I will not move it to another place at this late date because there is too much invested on the present location to make it feasible. I can't go against the law on this thing, and that's all there is to it."

Supreme Court Downs Star The Supreme Court, Monday, left standing an FCC decision denying license renewals

to several radio stations owned by Star Broadcasting. The U.S. Appeals Court, in Washington, affirmed the Februrary, 1975 FCC action, and the high court refused to hear an appeal which has now ended the case. The FCC had denied license renewals for WIFE AM and FM Indianapolis, KOIL AM and FM Omaha and KISN AM in Vancouver, Washington.

The FCC had found that Don W. Burden, who owns more than 92% of Star, participated in actions that led to WIFE giving free air time to Senator Vance Hardie in the 1964 election campaign. The Commission also found Burden tried to use KISN to give one sided news coverage in favor of Senator Mark Hatfield during his 1966 campaign.

Major PD Changes John Lund has exited the PD position at WNBC /New York with Bill Rock in as

acting PD until a permanent replacement is found. Bob Paiva announced he is leaving WLEEIRichmond with future plans to be announced soon. Glen Powers resigned his PD spot at KILT FM /Houston to join the TM Company as Operations Coordinator for syndicated stations.

RKO /Australian Network Scoops Exclusives Following up on last week's story on the planned satellite broadcasts, participating

network stations will world premier Australian Olivia Newton-John's brand new release during the broadcast of Friends Across The Pacific, the weekend of July 23rd. Meanwhile, during the weekend superstars Helen Reddy and the Eagles join in the festivities releasing their newest songs on the 50 station network. The RKO /Aussie jock exchange is firming up rapidly. Michael Spears KFRC Operations Manager and USA Coordinator of the broad- casts reports the phone is ringing off the wall for information as more details are revealed on the RKO stateside network. Deadline for station participation is 5pm PDT, June 4th. Ten commerical minute breaks will be built into the hour, all to be sold locally. The program comes to subscribers totally free. Specially struck bicentennial commemorative coins from the Australian government will be made available to all network listeners of participating stations during the broadcast.

CURRENT EVENTS CONTEST

KTSA/San Antonio has come up with a very topical contest, playing on the current rash of Howard Hughes' wills.The station claims to have "found" a Hughes will, dated May 1976, left at the station in a "mayonnaise jar." KTSA's John Wagner felt that filing the will in probate court would only tie up any inheritance, so the station decided to pay off the "beneficiaries," who were named by social security num- bers. Station personalities read off the last four digits of social security numbers on the air, giving listeners with that number 10 minutes to call in and claim their $55 share of the inheritance.

WLVA'S HAPPY DAYS As a tie-in with Pratt Et McClain's

"Happy Days" and WLVA/Lynch- burg's frequency 159), the station ran a "59 Happy Days" promotion. During the special weekend, hits from the 1950's were featured, a- long with giveaways of Happy Days "Six Packs," consisting of bobby sox, Brylcream, pennies for loafers, and more. On Saturday night, the station sponsored a special show- ing of 50's movies, along with re- cord hop, hula hoop and teen angel contests. As an added highlight, PD and morning man Ken Correll did

50's car while cruisin' the streets of the city and giving away hula hoops. The entire cast of the TV hit "Happy Days" did personalized promos for the promotion.

WJBQ CASH GIVEAWAY WJBQJPortland morning man

Wally Brine recently added a twist to a recent promotion, by urging his listeners not to listen to his show the following morning under any circumstances. Fellow jocks read Wally's wish later in the day during their shows. The following morn- ing, Brine revealed the reason for his request: WJBQ PD Jeff Ryder had given him a stack of 520 bills to give away every half hour, and if no one called in to win, he could keep the money. Needless to say, Brine went home penniless.

"HEAVY WHEELS" WJPS /Evansvillé s "Heavy

Wheels" promotion asked entrants to guess the quantity of gas that would be given away along with the grand prize 1976 Datsun. The earliest correct listener won the car, the gas,and a special cash bonus. Evansville's Mayor revealed the exact amount of gas on the air.

$400,000 SWEEPSTAKES WMEL/Melboume, Florida along

with 3 other stations in the region, took part in the Pepsi $400,000 Day- tona Speedway Sweepstakes. The nationally known car race was the spotlight of the promotion, with special VIP tickets given away by WMEL, in addition to custom race hats, jackets, and belt buckles. In order to score the tickets,listeners had to guess which jock would "win" the race, set up on a rotating cart. As the culmination of the sweep- stakes, the race's pace car will be given away to one of the contest- ants from WMEL and other par- ticipating stations.

STUDIO SABOTAGE All five on -air and production stu-

transmitter site for an entire day The unknown vandalists ransacked cart machines, and set a fire in the newsroom.

"SWAP CLUB" WROVIRoanoke recently ran the

"Swap Club" promotion. Starting with a transistor radio, listeners could swap what they had for such items as a Tony Orlando cufflink, a stuffed Armadillo, a moose head, and more. The WROV personalities occassionally "sweetened the pot" by adding LPs and other regular station prizes.

WHAT'S UP DOC? The infamous Bugs Bunny was

the featured celebrity in WPEZJ Pittsburgh's "Bugs Bunny Super- stars" promotion. The feature film of the same name was presented by the station, free to any listener who showed up with empty "Beech- nut Gum" wrappers.

BUSINESS NEWS

Starr Puts Price Tag On KABL Starr Broadcasting is negotiating to sell KABL-AM-FM/San Francisco for a reported $10 million. Starr

bought the stations four years ago for $10.8 million, from McLendon Co. The sale may be due in part to Starr's nearly 50% drop in net income for the first half of fiscal '76, following a slightly smaller drop in 1975.

Greenwood Charges Dropped Thirty -three counts filed against Jim Greenwood, owner of Superior Music and Licorice Pizza record

stores have been dropped, due to what a Municipal court judge termed as insufficient evidence. The charges were for receiving stolen property.

"Hot" CB's The incredible rise in use of CB radios has turned the equipment into a growing target for thieves.

One Michigan auto insurance exchange predicts that nearly 22,000 CBs will be stolen in the state this year. Some insurance companies are starting to attach extra charges to cover CB loss due to the escalating thefts. Most law enforcement experts note that it is very hard to cover up the fact that cars are equipped with the radios, because of the necessary antennas.

Kodak Vs. Polaroid Following Polaroid's recent injunction against Eastman Kodak, claiming that Kodak's new instant picture

cameras infringed on their patents,Kodak has filed a countersuit against the instant- developing pioneers. The suit cites that Polaroid has held a monopoly on the market by filing patents on "trivial" functions of the cameras.Plans of introduction of the Kodak cameras are still on for next month.

The Business Of Flying TWA has introduced a special "Business Zone" on the transatlantic flights. The special coach sections

allow businessmen fast liquors and food service, to cut down interruptions of work or sleep.

FCC Vs. Supreme Court The Federal Communications Commission had granted a renewal of license to WIBW- AM- FM- TV/Topeka,

disputing a previous decision by the Department of Justice. The unanimous FCC decision contradicted the Justice Department's previous declaration against an antitrust situation, stating that the Topeka market was "not a community to which our divestiture rules should apply." The ruling further stated that the Justice Department's petition against advertising domination within a market did not apply to Topeka, and that the combination radio -TV- newspaper dominance did not "create a monopoly." According to the Commission,the company which owns all these outlets should still be able to hold licenses for TV and radio.

Fairness Doctrine Violations The FCC cited Fairness Doctrine violations against 8 California radio stations in a recent decision.

KFOG /San Francisco, KFRD /Fresno, KFYVIArroyo Grande, KMBY /Monterey, KRED /Eureka, KROY /Sacramento, KSMA/Santa Maria, and KSRO /Santa Rosa were all accused of running announcements sponsored by one of the state's utility companies, condoning use of nuclear energy and construction of more nuclear plants. Original complaints were filed to the Commission by California public interest groups, which cited 13 stations. The Commission found four stations had fulfilled obligations on presenting both sides of the issue. One station's activities had not completely been filed with the Commission,and they delayed any statement of violation until the case was complete.

Taft Hits Record Gross An unprecedented $93 million has been reported as gross income by Taft Broadcasting Co. The broadcasting

division shows an increase of $3 million for fiscal 1976. The final Taft profit was down slightly, despite net gains, because of a larger tax bite.

Women Like Men Bosses A recent Gallup survey showed a fairly strong tendency in women to prefer male bosses. 60% of those

questionned stated a definite preference for working for men, while 27% stated that they didn't care. In the under 25 age bracket, the number of women who would rather work for other female increased to 18%.

Shick Sun Moves Buys To Radio For the first time in its advertising history, Shick Sun will be utilizing radio for a big push on its

movies this summer. Budgets have already been committed for more than the top 100 markets. A company spokesman noted that they are moving part of their TV budget into radio to help combat the unprecedented cost increases occurring in many TV markets. Movies to be advertised are "The Mysterious Monsters." "In Search Of Noah's Ark, " and "The Amazing World Of Psychic Phenomenon."

Avocado Green For Radio Calavo Growers of California have committed big ad bucks to promote four new flavors of frozen fresh

avocados. The combination radio and print blitz will hit 23 markets in 20 states. Spots will tie in local food outlets and the schedules are basically five weeks over eight.

STP Breaks New Motor Oil The STP Corp. will break introductory radio spots for their new STP motor oil in Dallas and Indianapolis

during the Indy 500. The oil is priced at $1.00 a quart and the product is not a synthetic, but rather a blend of petrolium oils and additives, protecting engines up to 12,000 miles between changes.

$3.8 Billion To Top 100 The 100 national leading advertisers spent 53.82 billion in measured media in 1975, up nearly 9%from 1974.

THE FCC [So You Can Understand It]

MORE ON DUPLICATION CHANGES Just a brief footnote to the Commission's recent REPORT AND ORDER

dealing with AM -FM duplication. While the Commission has addressed itself specifically to cities of 25,000 population or more, it has also made clear that it intends to expand its AM -FM non -duplication into the smaller markets at some moment

"Even though the rules we adopt do not extend to stations in cities of 25.000 or less, this should not be taken as indicating that no action in this regard would be required in the future. While it may not be possible to extend the rule to cover stations in the smallest towns, or to bring it into all duplications the Commission contnues to believe that the ultimate goal must be all possible reduction in the wastefulness of duplication."

It is also pertinent to point out that the Commission exempts AM pre- sunrise service from the rule. Duplicated operations during pre -sunrise hours will not be counted for computations under the rules.

Significantly, the average limit is 25% per week. However, it must be noted that in any one particular individual week, the total may be as high as 40% just so long as the average weekly duplication during a year does not exceed 25 %.

Special events (the Commission uses an example Presidential inaugura- tions) can be duplicated and need not be counted as part of the total duplication service. Finally, there is a hint that classical music stations might be eligible for waiver, particularly where the AM station offering classical music is daytime only. In any event, waiver requests must be filed at the FCC on or before November 1,1976.

FCC FINES FOR OPERATIONAL VIOLATIONS A. The FCC fined Station WLAS (Jacksonville) $4,000 for operating

with excessi*e pre -sunrise power for a period of one month. B. FCC fined Station KDU H -TV (Rapid City) $500 for logging violations. C. FCC denied requests by four Stations for mitigation of $2,000

forfeitures for program length commercials previously fined.

FCC SUSPENDS USE OF TERRAIN ROUGHNESS FACTORS FOR PREDICTING TV AND FM CONTOURS

In an effort to develop more accurate data to calculate theoretical Station contours, the FCC has suspended for a year (until May 1st, 1977) that aspect of its recently adopted new Rule for calculating FM and TV contours that adopted a terrain roughness factor while it gives the issue more study. TV Stations still have to file their contours based on the new Rules (but now with -out terrain roughness) with their renewals. But FM's don't and only need them for major applications, etc.

APRIL FAIRNESS AND POUTICAL RULINGS A. The Commission has instituted Rulemaking to consider a slight

change in the definition of a "legally qualified candidate for public office," which would not cover one who either has qualified for a place on the ballot or has publicly committed himself to seeking election by the write -in method, and is eligible under the applicable law to be voted for.

B. FCC has proposed amending its Rules to require Stations who give candidates gifts of time, to notify their opponents for use within 72 hours prior to the election. Presently, no such notification is required. Comments are due May 17th.

C. The FCC informed Professor K. Greenwood that the Equal Oppor- tunities and Lowest Unit provisions of Section 315, do not apply to elections of Indian Tribal officers.

d. The FCC informed Mr. Lar Daily that the networks were not unreasonable in holding that the President's State of the Union Message was bon fide news, and so exempt under Section 315.

E. The FCC denied a request for equal time on the basis of an interview on Station WTTG (Washington) "Panorama" program which it held was a bona fide News Interview program and exempt from Section 315, since it was broadcast on a regular basis. and control over the content of the news was in the licensee and not the candidate.

f. The FCC denied a complaint against ABC and CBS alleging that they failed to meet their obligations under the Fairness Doctrine with respect to presentation of children's advertising. FCC ruled that ad- vertising aimed at children is not a controversial issue warranting Fairness requirements.

G. The U.S. Court of Appeals upheld the FCC's Equal Time ruling that News Conferences and Debates between candidates were exempt from the equal time provisions of Section 315.

H. The FCC informed Mr. Alan Hendricks that Station KWYZ had not violated the personal attack rules since its broadcast occurred during a bona fide newscast

i. The FCC denied a complaint against Station KELO, ruling that the Fairness Doctrine requred only a balanced presentation and not "equal time ' that candidates get

J. The FCC informed Mr. Jerry Fassett that Station WGHN (Grand Haven) did now broadcast a personal attack by calling him a "trouble ma ker" since that did not question his honesty, character, or integrity.

K. The FCC denied a complaint against Station KABC -TV (L.A.) on the basis that property assessments and taxes was not a controversial issue of public importance, and even if it were, Complainant failed to show that the licensee had failed to afford coverage in its overall pro- gramming.

93KH Dear Programmer:

May I take a moment to thark you for taking the time to listen to "The Flag." I'd also like to tell you how it came to be recorded.

As you well know, it's about the right time for another talk record; so I decided to record one that we could all feel positive about.

For one thing, all artist proceeds are going directly to The Washington Crossing Foundation, an approved non- profit organization of the American Revolution Bicen- tennial Administration. Another reason is that recent survey information tells us that while 18 -34 year old people rate politicians at a low level, the idea and philosophy of patriotism itself is more popular than ever.

To me, it's a valuable record because of content alone, and I personally believe this production is timed right to be a programming plus as well.

I sincerely appreciate your consideration and support.

Yours

Biggest Stash Of Cash

Recently the Memphis Zoo was in need of money to buy a female rhino to join their disgruntled male already in residence. WHBQ morning man "Crazy" Bob McLain "donated" himself to the zoo, after a week of promotion where McLain kept getting more and more weird on the air. He was kidnapped and placed on display at the zoo by the zoo director. Bob did his morning show live from his cage and did live reports on the progress of raising his "ransom," which would go to the purchase of the rhino. By the next day more than $5000 had been raised and McLain was going bananas.Memphis Mayor Wyeth Chandler became humanitarian and came to McLain's cage with a proclamation freeing him. The female rhino arrived a week later... "sort of an exchange of one horny animal for another" said the zoo director. McLain is pictured here with his cage companion, the piano playing duck.

RADIO Programming For Share A nd Cume

By Eric Norberg, PD KEX /Portland Programmers are increasingly aware that one of the most useful research

tools they have for understanding the composition of their audience, and their audience's perception of the station, is the audience rating. Further- more, their programming efforts have a direct relationship to audience response, thus the ratings, thus the station's revenue -so with increasing audience fragmentation, programmers are necessarily becoming more and more oriented toward rating goals.

Despite this, there still seems to be considerable misunderstanding over what cume is, what average quarter hour share is, and how they interrelate. Naturally, without a thorough understanding of what the ratings are (and are not) telling you, you cannot effectively program to deliver desired results.

"Cume" is the cumulative audience a station is shown as delivering, in the indicated daypart, averaged over the indicated weekspan, averaged again over the survey period. This averaging is intended to increase the statistical reliability for the results, and explains the apparent paradox that a station can order a rating breakout of a specific event on Sunday afternoon from Pulse, and then, when the survey period is completed and the book is issued, the breakout may show a higher cume for the daypart on that one day than the entire day may show for the whole survey period. Eight Sundays with a 50,000 cume and one Sunday with a 100,000 cume yield an average Sunday cume of about55,600.

Your cume represents your "universe" -the total available people you are programming to. Ir you wish to increase your cume, you will seek to broaden your station's appeal to demographics in which the station has poor penetration -if to do so is consistent with the overall approach of the station. (It is unlikely the effect of adding Mantovani records to a Top 40 station to increase the 50 plus demographics will be particularly fruitful.)

"Share" is the most misunderstood factor in your rating book. It is the primary figure used for programming and for time buying, yet in Pulse and ARB it is a derived figure -a mathematical projection. It is intended to show the statistical probability of how much of your cume will be listening to you in an average quarter hour of the indicated time period, and is thus an efficiency factor, when considered with the cume.

In fact, the share is derived from the cume -and the average reported listening span. For example, if a certain demographic in one daypart happens to be represented by only three people in your survey, perhaps their reported listening looked like this:

*6:37 -7:22 am reported by listener A; rounded to 6:30 -7:30; listening span 60 min. *8:30 -8:48 am reported by listener B; rounded to 8:30 -8:45; listening span 15 min. *7:27 -8:08 and 9:45 -10:00 am reported by listener C; rounded to 7:30- 8:15 and 9:45 -10:00 listening span 60 min.

The cume is derived by dividing the 3 people by the total number of people in that demographic represented in the entire survey, then multiplying the consequent fraction by the total population in the survey area in that demographic. Then, all the individual listening spans in that daypart are added together and divided by the number of respondents, which in this case would be 60 plus 15 plus 60 equals 135 divided by 3, which equals 45 minutes -average listening span for the entire sample. (Note that rating services round off listening to the nearest quarter hour, in the process of compiling the survey, with five minutes of listening in any quarter hour given credit for a full quarter hour, and less than five minutes in any quarter hour not being counted at all.)

If the above sample daypart is 6 -10am, it is a four hour daypart; the average listening span is 45 minutes. 240 minutes divided by 45

minutes shows us that the audience "turns over" 5.33 times in the daypart in this demographic, so if the cume we derived is 300 persons, then we divided 300 by 5.33 to obtain the average quarter hour audience in this demographic: 56.3, or 56, persons of the 300 cume are listening to the station in the average quarter hour. Share, like cume, can be expressed in persons or in rating points (rating points represent the number of persons as a percentage of the total population in the demographic, in the survey area). Share can also be, and often is, expressed as a percentage of the total available audience (in the demographic) that is listening to radio inthat same average quarter hour...These are the familiar share figures in the first part of the "programmer's guide" section of Pulse, and in the "share trends" tables in the front of ARB.

Share, considered without consulting the correlating cume, can be very misleading. Your station may have a 5 share 6 -10 am 12 plus, while a competi- tor may have a 10 share; yet in the cume you may have a 3 -to -2 advantage. This means that you have a larger total audience, but they aren't listening nearly as long. This could mean that listeners to your station rely on your service features, but don't care for the rest of the programming very much; or that your programming does not wear well over a period of time (too much repetition? too little change of pace?). Or it could simply mean that the other station has a very long listening span, and yours is normal. Specialized formats, such as foreign language, progressive rock, religion, etc., tend to generate unusually long listening spans for a given cume, as a feature of the way the audience relates to the format. It would thus be a mistake for a general mass -appeal station to try to incorporate foreign language, progressive rock, or religious elements into its format in the ex- pectation of lengthening its listening span -it may reduce it, and perhaps the cume as well, since these elements are not compatible with general mass -appeal radio in most markets, except in some isolated time periods.

It is thus impractical to program only for share, or only for cume. They are interrelated, and your goal will be to optimize the balance. Mass - appeal stations generally reach a large cume, but the generality of the material presented results in lower listener "identification" with the station (and shorter listening spans) than is the case with specialized stations with smaller cumes. Promotion can increase the cume with no programming change required, in which case the share/cume ratio will remain about the same, and the share will rise proportionately. Programming can also, popular superstition to the contrary, be directed to increasing cume and listening span at the same time -by the expedient of attempting to make the programming more compelling and interesting to the mass audience.

No discussion of the role of ratings in evaluation and guiding programming would be complete without a repeat of the familiar warning that the samples upon which all radio audence surveys are based are too small to exclude considerable variations inthe results -particularly in dayparts and in individual demographics. Multi -book averages increase the reliability of the result, but do not help when you're trying to track a trend. Since the cume is the only figure in the rating book based on the entire sample, it is the most statistically reliable figure, and thus of particular value for programming; share is based only on a fraction of the cume, and thus is less reliable. Geographical sampling variations can also cause fluctuations in the results.

There also appears to be an every- other -book fluctuation pattern in ARB results, for stations which have made no programming changes, which allows prediction of a bad book following a good book and a good book following a bad one in a surprising number of cases. This fluctuation is outside the limits of the error -calculating "nomograph" in the back of each Arbitron book, and could be a geographical phenomenon, or an effect related to the long list of possible errors enumerated in part 39 of the ARB "sampling and calculation techniques," under the heading "limitations."

RADIO Jerry Bou /ding On "Sales Vs. Programming"

For all of its many improvements in the past several years, Black ra- dio's continuing and on -going pro- blem is still a lack of understanding on the part of top management of just how much is too much. What we're referring to in this instance is the fact that in many cases what causes ratings failures, displace- ment of personnel as well as other related problems is based on the "over- sell" that most black radio stations insist on doing.

In market after market, what be- gins as a situation wherein sales and programming can live together ends up with the programming get- ting the short end of the "stick" and the radio station going to the "max" with its commercial load. Then the ratings go down, the ques- tion is raised as to why, and the program- director and often several staff members are replaced. While the ratings are down the commer- cial load drops off, a new program- mer is assigned, the ratings go back up, the station is again oversold and the cycle repeats itself.

If this sounds like your station or your situation then you know all too well the story of this familiar and somewhat peculiar problem. This is probably the single biggest problem with Black radio.

"Give the listeners what they want" is the overhwelming motiva- ting principle of most broadcasters today and even many people in the music industry. These professional broadcasters and music people are apparently unaware that a growing percentage of today's hit music re- flects upon numerous unpleasant aspects of today's society. Protest songs have become common since the late sixties. Soon, there may be protest songs which ask radio, is it going to be what it claims to want to be, to be a little more considerate and a little less com- mercial!

Many of the top executives at key Black radio stations throughout the country, who consider themselves good executives and good broad- casters are so embroiled in compe- tition for audience shares and ad- vertising revenue that they often place immediate profit above the long term importance of being re- spectable and responsible mem- bers of their communities. They expect their audience to continue to tolerate eighteen commercial minutes and five minutes of news per hour, every hour. (These times reflect a well -run station who ad- heres to the principle that the spon- sor should get all they pay for, but no more. In far too many cases, a sixty- second spot becomes sixty - five or sixty -eight or even more. In those cases you can add an ad- ditional two minutes to every hour for this "splash- over." And, these are neither exaggerations nor ex- ceptions.) Now, we're up to be- tween twenty-four to twenty -six commercial or news minutes an hour. The average record length, and we're talking about singles now is up to three and a half to four minutes. In the remaining thirty -six or thirty-four minutes in the hour, even if everything else is said over record intros, you still can only play eight or nine songs. And, in many cases that is not enough mu- sic to be truly competitive.

Add to this over- commercializa- tion, the poor signals, even poorer equipment, lower budgets for pro- motion and contests, one to four hour religious blocks during the

broadcast day, and you begin to see why Black radio, in many cases, even today, is still in the "dark ages." (No pun intended).

How does this affect the. record industry? Well, if you start with the fact that Black radio can play fewer records by far per hour, add to that the listener fatigue after insistently being told to "Buy this!!!" or "Call this number!!!" day -in and day- out... you begin to see why some records get on the playlist and never get played. You can now see why if you are at the bottom of the new additions, you may get very spotty if any play during the first few weeks of a new record's life.

What effect is this going to have onthe young people that are becom- ing a part of this industry every day. They will be tomorrow's pro- grammers and music -directors and indeed, managers. At present, for the most part, many are unable to relate to a radio business except strictly on the cold hard facts of ratings and revenue. Many of them will be forced to grasp at formats rather than people. Now it's disc - jockeys and one -liners, and stop - sets and logos and jingles. The pro- blems of oversell and over -com- mercialization which they will in- herit will plague and frustrate them

as well. Hopefully some will be able to do something about the Black radio of the future.

There must be made room for such indulgences as the personal styles and individual creative philo- sophies that we used to applaud years ago, in todays Black radio. In addition, we must awaken our slumbering salesman to the tragedy that triple- spotting can play on our audiences. And,one of the answers is a higher rate card, coupled with a firm position on the station's com- mercial limit and finally, enough time must be provided for the pro- duction departm' nt to be truly crea- tive. Because this is the "bottom line" era. And you need to get con- sumers to do something, not just think fondly of you. After all, people don't just listen to advertising. They listen to what interests them. They tend to "tune -out" what does not stimulate them. Perhaps that is why so many poor commercials written by greedy account executives or poorly trained copy writers need to be repeated so often to get the desired results.

Economically. the '70s dawned in very tough times. But those forces which had been growing in our pro- fession were at their most formid- able. The measurement technique'

were now not theory but practical realities. Viable buyable services existed that before were only ex- perimental. And the creative people who had survived were clearly the best

Radio overall, including Black ra- dio is still in good shape. Billings are doing nicely. Sets -in -use are not spectacular, but they are still large enough to be saleable. There is no need to panic and try to get all the commercials in every hour for fear that tomorrow, the whole thing will be over, and suddenly there will be a famine among advertisers.

There's an old saying that "fam- iliarity breeds contempt." It might be said, in this regard, that "fam- iliarity breeds indifference." Today's decline in single sales indicates a growing public indifference and a

tight money situation. Today's de- cline in audience for some radio markets may stem in part from the same indifference on the part of listeners who object to radio's ap- parent disregard for the principles of basic good taste and "pump out hour- after -hour of over- commer- cialization." A station whose pro- gramming demonstrates a cynical

disregard for the listener's tolerance of commercials and balance in its programming, can hardly expect to attract listeners to whom such things have been and are continuing to be important. Especially is this true when there is an alternative. And it is these alternatives that continue to "bleed off" listeners in ever in- creasing numbers. Nor, can this sta- tion, in the long run, attract ad- vertisers who object to placing their names and products and services in a polluted commerical environment that reflects greed and profit mo- tives, disproportionate to the lis- teners' needs and desires.

Finally, the station manager and his staff must recognize that to some extent they will all bear the stamp of their station's image in their communities. While only a few people, usually in the sales end of the staff, make the decisions that affect the entire staff, the profitable operation of the station as a me- dium for both advertising and enter- tainment depends largely on the station's acceptance by the public in general and the business com- munity in particular. The station managers must make the right de- terminations in light of his station's policy and his own conscience.

The Great KSLQ Bed Race is captured here, which was thrown for the benefit of the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Shown in front with the stations entry are the Q Beaver aided by Jo Jo Kincaid, Chip Douglas. and KSLQ PD Chuck Roberts.

Here's a shot of the K108 FM Mellow Beaver who was seen taking it to the streets giving away Doobie Brothers albums. Apparently Sacra- mento has taken to the mellow beaver as the promotion was a huge success.

"The Beach Is Back" is what WGBF/Evansville called their promotion in which they traveled around the city giving away beach towels, suntan oil, and beach balls. "The River City Rocker" received such great reaction to their promotion that they are now sending out the station cash cruiser daily with more beach towels to give away at area pools.

KRIZ/Phoenix's "Happy Honker" poses with the custom "1230 Z" which w,II be given away this summer. She travels the town giving away albums, KRIZ balls, tickets and cash.

The proper co-ordination of AOR airplay and marketing can make a

tremendous difference in the outcome of any record promotional campaign. One of record people's biggest frustrations results from not being able to have a really accurate handle on airplay status so they may confidently back it up with product in any given market.

AOR radio is vast and complex. In the early days of its development, there were markedly fewer stations for record companies to deal with. Couple that with the fact that individual AOR jocks, for the most part, took a more definitively recognized role in the programming of their own shows and the targets of record company AOR radio promotion were much more clear cut than they are today. Just about every jock was dealt with individually.

Now, there are over 120 AOR stations. With the great AOR expansion came the loosely based assumption that the AOR jock doesn't have as much actual say in programming as he/she used to. Therefore, for convenience, record companies began to focus their efforts upon the pro- gram and music directors.

Just how true that premise is is difficult to tell. One thing is for certain, though. At all AOR stations, unless they are automated and every record is pre -programmed on tape, the jocks have some say determin- ing actual airplay. Even at the so-called tightly formated AOR's run by supposedly autonomous program directors, there are usually some cate- gories that the jock has somewhat of a choice to fill. It may only be a choice from between two or three records, but it is a choice. Then, of course, there are still many AOR's that give their jocks a large say in the programming of their own shows. As a matter of fact, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more "jock programmed" AOR stations today than the number of original "freeform progressives" during the genre's early days. Its just a matter of perspective and relativity.

With the battle for AOR airplay so fiercely competitive, record com- panies need every edge they can get to accumulate actual airplay. In the words of Capitol Records' National AOR Promotion Director, Ray Tusken, "It takes a tremendous amount of promotional co-ordination, planning, strategy, and follow -up to see to it that every possible person who has a say in the matter is exposed to the product." That means the jocks and with over 120 AOR's across the country, there are somewhere in the neighborhood of 1,000 people who have " a say in the matter."

Why is it so important to get the music or a least the message to all these people? In the past month alone, on several occasions, the difference between number ranks on this publication's Album Airplay/ 40 chart has been determined by merely one radio station, and, in one instance, the margin of difference came down to one cut.

Nevertheless, these are only trade reports and their primary function is to give industry people a retroactive report on status. How about the exertion of influence and maintenance on future airplay? Record executives are often complaining about station's being "on" a record but local sales are not following because it is not really getting played. That sounds pretty incongruous, doesn't it? It really isn't. A knowledge of the character- istics of AOR radio will tell you that it's a long, long, way from the bin to the turntable. Many a marketing campaign is foiled by "on" being misconstrued for "played." Record companies should understand that successfully promoting an AOR station's binkeeper is only a job half done.

Fantasy Record's East Coast regional man, Michael Milrod uses an interesting strategy. "When I come into a city, I rent a hotel room, some stereo equipment, and invite as many local radio airstaff members as possible from local stations to join me in an evening of wine, cheese, and music. I, in effect, play DJ for them. It gives me a chance to actually play our product for them, see their reactions, and it gives them all a chance to get together in a communicative atmosphere. Sometimes, I even mix in the product of other labels so they can hear some of the things that I believe our records will go good with."

Milrod's approach may not always be the most expedient thing to do, but his ideas are definately aimed toward filling the promotional needs of AOR radio.

To sum it up, the mechanics of AOR radio haven't changed that much over the years. The real changes have been in increased variety, internal professionalism, growth, influence, and industry recognition. To meet this growth pattern, record companies must beef up their AOR forces with both more people and people educated to the workings of AOR radio.

If the tapping of the talents of Thom O'Hair, Jim McKeon, and Gil Colquitt in recent weeks is indicative of that effort, then it seems the record industry is heading in the right direction.

Is your head in the clouds? Do you like the kind of music

that keeps you dancing in your sleep? If so...

WARREN ZEVON

WARREN ZEVON

Jackson Browne did a fine job producing this Progressive Country album that is much more Rock than Country. Wait until you see the line- up on this one! Zevon is an impressive new guitarist pianist vocalist songwriter, in the tra- dition of the company he keeps. Take your pick on the cuts. They're all quite brilliant. Try "Desperados Under The Eaves" and "Mo- hammed's Radio" for starters. This is of the best albums to come out thus tarn this year. (Asylum)

JOHNNY Et EDGAR WINTER

Together - Johnny and Edgar Winter LIVE

including: Haden, Shuffle You've Lost That Loairi Feelin

Rock 8 Roll Medley: Jenny Take A Ride/ Slippin A Slidin'

SuggestedAlbums RENAISSANCE JEFFREY COMANOR BLUE OYSTER CUL T

Long recognized by Northeast AOR stations as e of the world's classiest ensembles, it looks as if this magnificent double live pack- age will spread their music across the court try. It is a full-bodied music that combines lush nstrumentation. classical overtones and con- temporary Rock. The tunes are lengthy but the quality is consistently high. "Scheherazade" "Can You Understand"' plus others. (Eire)

ROGER McGUINN

Roger McGuinn Cardiff Rast

including. Take Me Away:Jolly Roger /Rock And Roll Time

Up To Me!Dreamland

Fans of each of these famous brothers will be pleased that there is finally an entire al- bum featuring them together. Recorded live be- for enthusiastic audiences, they, along with a

hot backup band, run through a medley of old Rock and Roll classics. All the songs are strong choices and they handle each well. Take your pick. (Blue Sky)

Extremely irrpresive solo effort by the reknown- ed former Byrd. The music covers a wide range and is marked by the type of biting Rock that we had come not to expect from McGuinn. "Dreamland " is powerful. Other goodies in elude "Take Me Away' "Rock & Roll Time' and for a change of pace. "Jolly Roger" (Co- lumbia)

This Is a case of the material and interprets. taon more than compensating for a lack of mu. cological brilliance. Comanor seems to be

following in the footsteps of the great trouba dors of the sixties, on.y the themes are lighter, love oriented, and more fitting to the late

seventies. Don't overlook this ontr "My Old Lady and Your Old Man" "'Wishing for a Sa-

turday Night." "Running Back Home To You "Song of the Long Night" and "We'll Never Have To Say Goodbye Again" (Epic)

LARRY COR YELL

HE

1 11rfir ::::4

Those AOR's that believe their "R" should include Jazz will find this collection a pro- gramming must. Extremely aggressive and crea- tive. this is a hard driving. cleanly produced, cerebral playground. "Titus" "Pyramids" "Yin- Yang' "'Aspects" (Arista)

This album marks a turning point in this groups career similar to what "We're An American Band" was to Grand Funk. Plenty of heavy duty. woofer filling Rock and Roll plus some testy lighter entries. "(Don't Fearl The Reaper" "ETI" "True Confessions" and more (Col)

AMAZING RHYTHM ACES

Very fine follow up collection to their superb debut album which received favorable reaction from both AOR and Country radio. This album contains more of those smooth grass roots harmonies and neat Country pickin'. Lots of choice cuts including "Typircal American Boy" "Same Ole Me" "Out Of The Snow" and "A Little Italy Reg" IABCI

Chart Summary

STONES had another tre- mendous week and held on- to the top position. MILLER is a monster and almost reached the top in a tremen- dous surge. STEELY keeps growing. ZEP is hanging on. TULL came on like gang- busters with more adds than any other album this week. DOOBS are holding. AERO- SMITH made healthy gains. MARLEY pushed upward. TODD is still strong. TUBES had another sensational week. LIZZY nudged up. FIRE - FALL is proving to be a very big album. ELTON was sta- ble. HEART picked up more airplay. JOEL grew. Mc- GUINN was the week's high- est debut. ARS maintained. SONS came on very strong. POCO made huge gains. ISLEYS' debuted impressive- ly. GEILS is hanging in there. UFO debuted. SEGER was firm. MAC, the chart veteran nudged up a bit. RENAIS- SANCE debuted. After many years of being a Northeast regional favorite, it appears that this act is starting to break nationwide. HILLMAN WAINWRIGHT, and MATH - EWS debuted. HUNTER bounced back onto the chart. RAINBOW debuted. NILS LOFGREN, DONOVAN and POUSETTE DART almost made the chart.

this chart is based solely on airplay and does not attempt to fabricate a trend. The artists in italics are those receiving the most rapid gaio in airplay.

ANGELO

Talented new keyboardistivocalist backed up by a top notch group in album full of varied solid music. They cover many bases and really get to show their stuff. "It Don't Matter" All Going Down Together" " Hury Burly" (Fantasy)

RONNIE LAWS N

4

An album marked by sophisticated Jazz prowess. Laws makes his own kind of music combining Soul. Jazz, Rock, and Pop and the result is about as classy as you can get. Cer- tainly not everybody's cup of tea but those who appreciate the genre will recognize this as cream. "Fever" "Strugglin ""From Ronnie With Love' (Blue Note)

NASHVILLE DEADLINE NEWS: WILLIE NEL-

SON's 4th of July picnic has run aground again, this time with the Gonzales, Texas County Commis- sioner's Court unanimously voting not to approve Nelson's applica- tion for a mass- gathering permit. So its off for 1976 (see Late News for details)...MAC DAVIS' selection as the "Most Exciting Man Of The Year" surprised no one, least of all the BACHELORETTES, the Hol- lywood Society for single actresses and models, who chose him..JACK's back!! Cowboy JACK CLE- MENT is back from his Texas ranch into Music City with the COW- BOY'S RAGTIME BAND. He work- ed at the Exit -Inn last week and is label shopping...LEONA WILLIAMS new single on Tally (Merle Haggard's label), recorded live at San Quentin Prison New Year's Day, must be the first live prison record by a woman... WEBB PIERCE SR. and WEBB PIERCE JR, both ended up in the same hos- pital at the same time for the same reason; Webb, Jr. cracked a foot while broad jumping at school (he's an 8th grader), and his dad had toot surgery there...CAROL LAWRENCE ex -wife of ROBERT GOULET, form- er star of Broadway musicals, TV shows and movies, was in Nash- ville last Saturday night to sing on the Grand Ole Opry!! Carol's per- forming sacred music now, and per- formed her new word -recorded songs. Carol said it was both an exciting and nervous experience, since the Opry is such an institu- tion...Nashvillé s TEDDY BART, who is a long time radio-TV personality on WSM, wat honored last Satur- day night with a "roast" by Toast- masters International here and roasted by local personalitites CHRIS CLARK, LEN HENSEL, ELAINE GANICK, JOHN MERRITT, column- ist RED O'DONNELL, politico-bus- inessman JOHN J. HOOKER, and MINNIE PEARL...HANK WILLIAMS JR. is back!! Nashville columnist BILL HANCE said "all the King's horses and all the King's men, plus $50,000 worth of Montana doctor- ing have finally put Hank Jr. back together again." Over $50,000 on plastic surgery and dental work (and some super faith and determina- tion) have literally put Hank Jr. back in business. He and his new band worked last weekend in Maryland after he "opened" in Mt Olive,near Garland, Ala. where he played for the dedication of a parkin memory of his dad. Hank will not record just yet he says, but will be per- forming mostly weekends for the next few months with his new band. From now on, they'll be known as BOCEPHUS (that was HANK SR's nickname for him) AND THE BAMA BAND. I continue to stand in awe of his strong will and determina- tion, plus an undying faith, which have carried Hank Williams,' Jr. through that near -fatal. unrecogniz- able physical change, plus the death of his mother within a few months, surely the roughest year of his young life, 26 years old.

RONNIE MILSAP 20-20 Vision (RCA)

By far his best collection of material. Excellent production and arrangements highlight this al- bum. From blues to the country-boogie of "Love- sick Blues" Milsep proves again he is a super- star. Best cuts: Tide selection: "I'm A Stand By My Woman Man," "Lovers, Friends and Strangers," and "Looking Out The Window Through The Pain." Also very strong: "Not That I Care."

GENE WATSON Because You Believed In Me(Cepìtoll

Watson shows in this collection of Country songs that "Hot Afternoon" was not a fluke for this talented performer. Simplicity is the key to the sound on this album. Best material would be: "Sorry Willie' and the title cut Other pos- sibles: "How Good A Bad Woman Feels" and the uptempo "Hey Louella."

WPOC PARTICIPATES IN PREAKNESS FESTIVAL ACTIVITIES

WPOC FM was an integral part of the Preakness Festival Activities in Baltimore for the 101st running of the Preakness.

The Preakness is the middle jewel of the triple crown of horse racing. The triple crown starts with the Kentucky Derby and ends with the Bellmont Stakes in New York.

The week long Festivities prior to the Preakness is 'launched' with the Preakness Festival Ballon Race. As a co-sponsor of the race WPOC sent up a 70' high, 52' wide, 70,000 cubic foot red, white and blue hot air balloon.

A 28 foot long red and white WPOC FM banner decked the ex- terior of the ballon. The field of six ballons raced across the Cheasa- peke to the touch down point 25 miles away from the starting point at Druid Hill Park in Baltimore. The WPOC balloon was not a partici- pant in the race, rather it went up in an observation and reporting ca- pacity. WPOC's Program Director Pete Porter rode in the balloon with remote equipment enabling him to give live report on WPOC directly from the balloon. The WPOC bal- loon traveled 65 miles at the maxi- mum height of 14,000 feet for 2% hours, landing 5 miles into Delaware.

Aside from the Balloon Race, the Preakness Activities in Baltimore included arts and crafts shows, painting exhibits, concerts, street festivities, parades and Bob Hope in concert with Joey Heatherton and Ray Charles.

The highlight and culmination of the week is the actual running of the Preakness at Pimlico Race Track.

Preakness is to Baltimore what Mardi Gras is to New Orleans, color, fun, excitement a total week long celebration.

POP/ ADULT

NOTES BY MIKE KASABO

The Beatles new (7) single "Got To Get You Into My Life" went right on tight -listed WGAR and also Chicago powerhouse WGN. Popularity for the superest of all groups has never waned. In fact, it would not be surprising to see some of their old material make healthy chart numbers in the months to come...just like it happened all over again in England recently.

The T.G. Sheppard record "Solitary Man" got an early shot in the arm with good airplay at the Pop /Adult giant in Minneapolis, WCCO.

Dave Darin, KCRA, points out excellent response on the Neil Sedaka album cut "Number One With A Heartache. "...so much so that he saw fit to put it on his singles rotation list.

The Chet Atkins "Frog Kissin" record is still going strong at WSM... and picked up play at WSB.

After many months in the field and one Oscar award later, Keith Carradine's "I'm Easy" is now receiving wide- spread acceptance at the Pop /Adult level. Latest adds include WLW, KRMG, WFIR, WFTL.

Latest TV theme starting to make some noise as a single release is the New Marketts rendition of "Song From M "A'SH." It went right on WMAL, WHIO and WNIC -FM.

Emmylou Harris had her first good Pop /Adult chart run with "Here, There And Everywhere" recently...her new one "One Of These Days" went on WG N.

Mel Carter continues to try for a come -back with "My Coloring Book." Kitty Kallen and Sandy Stewart both had successful versions out in the early sixties. Anyway, Mel picked up good play at KMBZ and KMEN.

We note continued good response to Todd Rundgren's "Good Vibra- tions" at WIP...same holds true at KCRA.

Jim Ashbury, 14FBL, reports a clever promotion for this time of year which amounts to a take -of on the Indy 500. Morning personality Jack Mindy held a "Mindy 500" race all last week. The entrants were Elton John; The Beatles and Elvis Presley. Several times each morning Mindy would open his phone lines and have listeners call in and request which one of the above mentioned artists they would most like to see win the "Mindy 500." Results were not available at press time, however. we will report from the Winner's Circle next week.
