KC AND THE SUNSHINE BAND VS. THE OHIO PLAYERS - KC WON!
Usually, when tw o dynonute band» are scheduled to appear on the same bill,
everyone immediately starts wondering, who’s gotng to take the show. In the ease of
K.C. and the Sunshine Band, along with The Ohio Players, haring "top" balling, in my
estimation. K.C. and the Sunshine Band wafted away the crowd pleaser
I was w hat yen might call an upset. The Ohio Players hare been perform ing much
longer than K.C.. th ey're had more million dollar sellers than K .C . and th e y 're had
much more international exposure than K.C. But Friday night caught K .C . and the
HILDA
Better service for more people. I

K.C. opened the show w ith “That's the W ay" followed by “Shake Your Boody" a n d a
host of toe U p p in g tunes that kept the down stairs audience an thstr teee from
to end. T heir sound was authenie w ithout any of the usual electronic
’ that plague performers at the Paramount Theatre. They moved through
their performance w ith split second accuracy from sta rt to finish. Each selection was
timed Q n x lo r tj.
The Ohio Players opened the concert in a cloud o i smoke as an b dp stw n filled the
air. I knew, j w t like the rest of the audience they definitely had th e ir w ork cut out for
them, just to equal the performance of K .C Unfortunately, The Ohio Players just
couldn't pull it off. I was totally disappointed in th eir performance. They lacked
showmanship and variety in their n e t T heir biggest seller “F ire " they must hare sung
for over a half hour. I think promoters should be mare perceptive when putting
together a package like K . C. and the Sunshine Band and T he Ohio Players on the same
b ill I t has a tendency to effect future concerts when one of the groups don't meet the
expectations of the audience. L et s face i t they're both bee dlinwr* and to h are thorn
both on the tam e show creates a very pressured situation. In thio ease. The
Players just couldn't handle it - K .C and the Sunshine Band won!!!
Jones joins 'Roots’ cast
Tw o tim e Academy Aw ard nominee
Quincy Jones has been signed to score
the music to the ABC M ini series B asi s
The monumental television project is
based on the current best selling novel by
A lex Haley where M r. Haley has traced
and depicted bis family roots from Africa
to present.
Quincy Janes' film credits include over
fifty motion pictures including his tw o
Academy A w ard nominations for U s
music to the films “In Cold Blood.“ and
“In The Heat Of The N ig h t.“ Jones in
volvement with Roots marks the first
tim e in five years that Jones has been
involved in film scoring, due to his self
imposed hiatus from th at phase of the
industry.
“A fte r scoring my last film (The
Getaway) I made the decision to take a
temporary leave of absence from the film
industry to concentrate my interests on
different phases of the music businsos
A lex Haley and I have been friends for a
number of y e a n and when he asked me to
score the music to Boots I had to get
evolved. I have spent the post tea y e a n
of my hie attem pting to trace the M e i ar y
of Black music from A fric a to present, in
researched Us fam ily lineage far Boots.
w ere sc strong th a t I felt
to the project," Quincy
The fo u rta
; in January 1977 w ith
scheduled to i
the production i .
by David W aiper Productions.
T feel that Roots w ill be the moot
im portant piece of television footage ever
experienced in America; the book ia
already proving to be the literary giant of
the 70'». In my estimation, the T .V . series
w ill follow suit." Jones said.
