The Spinners, who donated
$5,000 in addition to covering
all the performing costs,
played enthusiastically to a
captive audience. They are
great showmen who never fail
to generate excitement
onstage. They too played a
medley of their hits, from
their current, “The Rubber-
band Man," to their classic,
“Mighty Love.”
Jackie Wilson would have

everyone in attendance was
proud to have been there to

Wilson would recover.

Stoma Yamash’t, the
Japanese theater-rocker, has
hooked up with some of the
Western world's better
rockers, on a project titled
“Go.” He has enlisted the
voice of Stevie Winwood, the
drums of Michael Shrieve (ex-
Santana), and added his own
electronic circuitry to shape a
most interesting musical
meeting. It's available on
record now, and Stomu
Yamash ta reports he soon
will tour with “Go” in the
United States, and perhaps
even conclude with a
Broadway theater engage-
ment “It is an ambitious
project, but all the musicians
liked it, musically and
theatrically. We’re going
slowly and carefully with it. I
don't like to go boom.”

I WALT DISNEY PRODUCTIONS
By Stan Mieses
Jackie Wilson was one of
the finest showmen in pop
music, an opinion shared by
fans and performers alike He
was one of the most influen-
tial singers of popular rhythm
and blues, and was at the
forefront when so-called black
music began to sell in big
numbers
He lies now in a hospital
bed, barely sentient, having
suffered a massive heart at-
tack and stroke while onstage
at the Latin Casino in Cherry
Hills, N.J., a little more than
a year ago. He fell during the
climax of “Lonely Tear-
drops," and his voice has been
silent since then
Now perhaps his spirits
have been lifted higher. A
well-attended benefit,
organized by the Spinners, and
complemented by a host of
soul music groups, top televi-
sion and radio personalities,
raised nearly $70,000 on
Wilson's behalf.
The Latin Casino was sold
out, and all the $100 top tickets
were purchased by various
recording companies The
audience was treated to a
show they’re not likely to see
again.
Six acts performed sets of
approximately 20 minutes
each. New York City’s B.T.
Express, known best for their
hard-driving disco sound,
opened the show and played
their two big hits. “Express”
and "Do It," without their
female vocalist Barbara
Joyce. Since they hardly sing
anyway, the loss was not ap-
parent.
Stephanie Mills rushed from
a matinee of "The Wiz” to
sing several songs, including
"Ease on Down." Mills has an
incredible instrument, that
voice, but she has been too
carefully trained and applies
too much theatrical technique
in her singing.
A meeting of Dm Cornelius
and Dick Clark - that’s Soul
Train meets American Bands-
tand — and a film of Jackie
Wilson selected from Clark's
TV archive preceded a short
visit by soul singer Al Greea.
Green, a recently ordained
minister, originally declined
to sing, but he did an a capella
version of “Let's Stay
Together." Green is a per-
former who has incorporated
Jackie Wilson's influence into
his own idiosyncratic style,
and he paid a debt of gratitude
by donating $10,000 to the
Jackie Wilson Fund.

For most people buying a

heading over to the city pound
to pick up whatever's
available ,
John Howe an editor of
Consumer Reports,” has
written what is essentially a
consumer's guide to Choos-
ing the Right Dog" — the
right dog in Howe's book
meaning the 121 pure breeds
recognized by the American
Kennel Club (the chief
organization of dog breeders
in the U.S.).
Howe gathered extensive in-
formation from breeders,
trainers, and veterinarians on
such important variations
among breeds as amount of
shedding and drooling, daily
food intake and tendency to
bark or bay For each breed,
he also notes good and bad
points as a bouse or apart-
ment dog and gives a physical
description and the average
price of a good puppy
Responsiveness to training,
guard and watchdog abilities,
special care requirements,
and friendliness with children

Sidney Sheldon has done it
again The former playwright
and TV creator-producer-
writer has written his third
novel, his second consecutive
smash It's called “Stranger
In the Mirror" and follows the
colossal success. “The Other
Side of Midnight.”
Sheldon says that writing
novels is a much better way of
life than working on
Broadway or on movies or
television
"I almost always wrote
•Slone for movies and TV,” he
says, “Yet you have
collaborators thrust on you —
the cameraman, the
producer, the composer, the
director, the actors all have a
hand in shaping the mood of
your work
“But, with a novel, there is
no collaborator. You do it all
yourself.”
Sheldon says a big producer
recently called him with a big
deal for him. The producer
had lined up a top star, top
director, top property. He just
wanted Sheldon to write the
screenplay There was big
money involved.
“I told him," Sheldon says,
"to do me a favor and not tell
me the name of the star. I
didn't want to be tempted "
Both The Other Side of
Midnight" and “Stranger In
the Mirror" will be big
movies. But Sheldon isn’t in-
volved in the latter He says
he recently made a big career
