Mt. Hood Festival Of Jazz
looks Entertainment
Linda Lehm ann of north P o rt­
land know s w hat a great year it’s
going to be for the Mt. Hood Festival
o f Jazz. She’s particularly proud o f
the great line-up: fourteen fantastic
jazz acts including Dave Brubeck,
Diane Schuur, H orace Silver and the
Silver/Brass Ensem ble, Dave Koz,
Doc Severinsen, Joe Henderson and
John Tesh.
Lehm ann should be proud - she
is the person responsible for bringing
all that talent to the festival. This is
the first year a volunteer has booked
the festiv al’s entertainm ent. In the
past, the Mt. Hood Festival o f Jazz
Foundation has hired outside p ro ­
ducers to research availability o f art­
ists, extended offers and negotiate
fees.
Lehm ann, who has served on the
Mt. Hood Festival of Jazz board since
1985, spent several years as chair of
the talent committee. The group brain­
storms and investigates possible per­
formers for the festival.
Lehm ann prepared for her new
role by attending the Jazz Tim es con­
vention in New Y ork C ity last year.
T he convention, which attracted pro­
ducers, artists, record com pany ex­
ecutives and other jazz presenters,
gave Lehmann an opportunity to make
some im portant contacts. She says a

couple o f the acts at this year’s festi­
val are the direct result o f contacts
made at the convention.
An accounting m anager for Port-
la n d la w firm S u ssm a n S h a n k
W apnick C aplan & Stiles since 1982,
Lehm ann is grateful for the support of
her employer. “ So much o f w hat I do
for the jazz festival has to be done
during w orking hours. Everyone at
the Firm is very supportive,” Lehmann

equation. All in all, the album repre­
sents a quantum creative leap for a
group that has made a career of bold
experim entation. The album runs the
stylistic gam ut from hard-hitting r&b
to pop balladry and gospel-inflected
jazz. The tracks are bound by a soulful
fervor only Take 6 could bring to a
recording.
The result is the group’s most
accessible and accom plished outing
to date - Join The Band marks the Fust
time Take 6 has invited guest vocalists
to record with them. Composed by
Mark and Joey Kibble, “My Friend”
