It was 1984 when Roger last wowed the world with his smash album, "The Saga Continues," featuring the hit single, "In The M ix." Since then, this multi talented singer, tunesmith, producer and performer has been barn- storming the country with a live show that's earned rave reviews and SRO concert crowds. Roger's mix of solid songwriting, a larger-than-life stage show and some of the funkiest grooves this side of dance nirvana has made him a show-stopping sensation from coast to coast. But then what would you expect from an artist with the talent and experience of Roger? Roger's musical credits span twenty years of recording and performing and include stints with such stellar names as Sly Stone, Parliament-Funka- delic and the on-going mega group, Zapp. Born and raised in Har™ on- Ohio. Roger built a local following into a national phenomenon through both his recording and performing activities. With influences that range from George Clinton to Hank Williams to Barry White to B.B. King, Roger is also adept at any instrument he puts his hands to - everything from keyboards to guitar to every variety of woodwind and horn in the musical dictionary. Far too creative to simply write, play and perform, Roger is also a world class producer, with credits that include his own gold solo album, ' The Many Racets Of Roger" and the gold award-winning album by Shirley Murdock. For an entertainer so much in demand, it's little wonder it s taken Roger nearly three years to record his fourth LP. Touring demands were such that it wasn't until late last year that he was finally able to get into the studio to begin work on a long-awaited new album. Working with his brothers. Larry, Lester and Terry Troutman, Roger concocted ten sizzling original cuts as well as cutting a blistering version of the James Brown classic, Papas Got A Brand New Bag" and put it all together on the aptly titled Holiday Seasons Greetings -r • Experienced instructors i affirmative action . kjual offortunttv n m h iu ik m 30 and Sunday, July 31.
