SOUL SENSATION SET
P IO N E E R C O U R T H O U S E
SQUARE is proud to host the party
of the summer, “ SHAKE, RATTLE
& SO U L.” On Friday, August 18,
1989, at 7:30 p.m. HENRY WF.IN-
H A R D ’S PRIVATE RESERVE
presents one of the hottest line ups
ever to grace a Portland stage: the
fabulous TEM PTA TIO N S, the leg­
endary soulstress, ETTA JAM ES
and Portland’s own favorite R&B
group, BODY & SOUL.
T he Tem ptations, who defined
the Motown sound of the sixites,
have fourteen number one R&B hits
to their credit, including “ My Girl,’ ’
‘‘Just My Imagination, “ and “ Papa
Was a rolling Stone.” Rolling Stone
Illustrated History of Rock & Roll
put it best...’’The Temptations quite
simply stood as the finest vocal group
in Sixties soul; they could out-dress,
out-dance and out-sing any competi­
tion in sight.” It holds true today!
Their music has progressed and along
with their old standards are new hits.
Just this year the Tempts were in­
ducted into The Rock N ’Roll Hall of
Fame.
Etta Jam es: her fans are devoted
and her appeal is timeless. She is a
soul mama who belts out a song like
no one else can. The rolling Stones
chose her to open for them on both
their 1978 and 1981 tours. Her music
can be heard on the sound track of
“ Back to the Future,” “ Taps,”
“ Rooftops,” “ Rain Man,” and she
performed in “ Hail, Hail, Rock n ’
Roll.” Her newest album “ Seven
Year Itch,” was nominated for the
best contemporary blues recording
artist Grammy Award in 1988. The
reviews state it all, “ Don’t even try
to resist Etta James has got one of
those big, powerful, force-of-nature
voices that is going to track you
down and lay you flat out.” ...People
Magazine, Dec. 1988. The New
Yorker’s Mark Moses on Etta, “ she
possesses on of the two or three most
powerful and fearless voices in all of
R&B.” And from the San Francisco
Chronicle, May 1989”...she’s a na­
tional treasure.”
Opening the show, Portland’s own
Body & Soul needs no introduction
to this area. The band’s fame is sky­
rocketing with recent appearances
on the “ Today Show,” and the “ Pat
Sajak Show.” A major record deal
appears to be close at hand.
SHAKE. RATTLE & SOUL, the
Square’s annual fundraiser, is going
to be a night of music that Portlan­
ders will long remeber. General
admission tickets priced at 18.00 (plus
service charge) are on sale at G.l. Joe
TICKETMASTER Locations and
Powell’s Travelstore at the Square.
Tickets to the M EIER & FRANK
Patrons’ Pavilion are $75.00 and
