Page 8 Portland Observer, October , 1982
From Rock 'n' Roll to the Rock of Ages
The international star and king o f Rock ’n’ Roll, Little Richard, who sev
eral years ago gave up "show business” for " G o d ’s Business" will be in
Portland for a " Y o u th Crusade,” October 8. 9 and 10th at the Northwest
Service Center (corner o f Everett and 19th N .W .). Many will remember the
flamboyant star for his recordings o f "Long Tall Sally,” "G ood Golly Miss
M o lly ,” among many others. He was the great influence in the music o f the
late Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, M ick Jagger and the Rolling Stones, and
more reknowned artists.
Little Richard will be in the Portland area letting the youth know that a
life o f drugs, drink and corruption, which he has rejected, will only lead to
heartaches and headaches.
Come out Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 7 pm, to hear Little Richard
tell o f G od’s Amazing Grace and let all know our hope is not in the White
House, but in God's house.
Free— everyone welcomed. Local ministers and choirs will participate.

M an O f The H our
Z .Z . H ill has been on the recording scene since the early sixties. During
that period Z .Z . has had his share o f hits such as " Y o u W ere W ro n g ,”
"Second Chance,” “ D o n ’t Make M e Pay,” " M r . N obody,” "Love Is So
Good When You’re Stealing It ,” plus many others. After more than twenty
years as a recording artist, the biggest break came for Z .Z . when he signed
his current contract with Malaco Records. The first album Malaco released
had some hits— "B um p and G rin d ,” "Separate W ays,” and "Blue M o n
day Blues.” The second and current album, Down Home, has already sold
more than half a million copies and is still selling.
There is little doubt that the Down Hom e album will be the number one
blues album o f the year. Every cut is a potential single hit. "Cheating In
The Next R o o m ,” and " W h e n Can W e Do This A g a in ,” have already
made it as singles. "D o w n Home Blues” is the kind o f blues album a blues
lover can relate to. The one song on the album that is as bluesy as you can
get is “ Everybody Knows About M y Good Thing.”
Z .Z . has been a long-time favorite in the South. He has recently signed a
long-term promotinal deal with Don Johnson o f D .J. Productions to han
dle his engagements from Tucson to Seattle. Johnson is number one in the
West for blues.
