Stephanie Mills: Happy to be herself For the first time in a long time Stephanie Mills feels happy about life and happy about herself. Ms. Mills credits her former husband, Jeffrey Daniel o f Shalamar, with her new, positive self-image. Ms. Mills says she used to feel intimidated by female entertainers that fit society’s image o f beauty: “ that tall-prettv-girl-with-long-hair.” The 4 '8 " Mills says Daniel helped her get rid o f her inferiority complex because “ he never stopped telling me he loved me the way I was.’’ Pressures from both sides o f family and friends, plus Daniel’s “ immatur ity ,” caused M ills to file for divorce last September. The 25-year-old star confessesw that she still loves Daniel. She’s also hoping for a reconciliation with the only man who she says she has ever slept w ith.

The scene was New York C ity ’s 7th Avenue South, where the M ax Roach Quartet— M ax on drums, tenor saxophonist Odean P odc , Cecil Bridgewater on trumpet, and bassist Calvin H ill— was completing a four- city November tour, including stops at the University o f Massachusetts/ Amherst, Santa Fe, and the University o f Houston. M a x ’s career has seen him move from pioneering bebop in the late 1940s with Miles, Diz and Bird, to working in the hard bop idiom o f the '50s, to the free improvisational format o f the '60s and ’70s, culminating his own all-percussion orchestra known as M ’ Boom, with their analog and digital album configurations for Colum bia. M a x ’s current album with the quartet is Chattahoochie Red, highlighted by “ The D re a m /It’s Tim e,” in which M a x ’s drums underscore Rev. M artin Luther King J r.’s famous “ I Have a Dream ” speech. A full professor o f music at Amherst, Jazz H all o f Famer M ax Roach is also the founder o f the Open Forum for American Music, a foundation dedicated to the performance o f all music by American composers in every genre.
