And that’s a career that includes seven Grammy awards, 15 Platinum albums and nearly 75 million records sold worldwide - all for the label he co-founded and nurtured. From the days when his Herb & The TJB were butting heads with the best of the British Invasion for chart space, Herb has never stopped moving; his music has never stopped evolving. A Youth Talent Extravaganza “Push The Positive” Pine Street Theatre 221 S.E. Ninth & Pine W a s h in g to n Arnold Pitre, a native Portlander , works as the field operations manager for S. Brooks and Associates Corpora tion, Handyworker Division. Arnold and his wife Judi have four sons, and are concerned about the plight of today’s youth in our society and in our communities. Pitre says “ Too much emphasis is placed on youth activities that go con trary to the law. The commercialism and hype concemig the gang activities, drug problems etc. sends negative Musician, Composer, Label Visionary, Artist Entrepreneur and Jazz Afficionado Herb Alpert is many things to many people, but h e’s always been true to himself, Pitre Production presents messages to our youth. Very often our youngsters are merely em ulating the behavior they view on the movie screen, the television programs, or what they read in the newspaper. They are re ceiving the wrong messages. They need to see more positive behavior by their peers.” Pitre’s intention and aim is to pro vide a means for young people to dem onstrate and showcase their positive capabilities, to “ PUSH THE POSI TIV E.” * Superb youth entertainment * Top local artists Gospel singing Shirley Nanette * Boka Marimba * Norman Sylvester *Benny Wilson * Brenda Phillips * Paulette Davis * * Andrew Clay * Admission: $10.00 (food included) For ticket information call* 284-7930 or Pine Street Theatre * 231-8382 Portland Observer * 288-0020 223-9919 31 NW First M IL L E N N IU M 1:00-7:00 pm (a full night o f entertainment) Fun fo r the entire family (under 12 admitted free) WEDNESDAY SEPTEMBER 4 Josephine Ocean Travel Robert's 23R D & N W JOHNSON 2 4 8 -0 1 6 3 32N D & E BURNSIDE 2 3 1 -8 9 2 6 Herb has ever attempted before. 3415 N .E .
