Show Ju ly 21, 1967 J t - The "Association," creators of three "Association Should anyone ever ask, the one and only definition of an association is a "group of two or more persons who are solely and intensely dedicated to a single purpose in life." Or so says Terry Kirkman of the "Association," who will appear at Lagoon tonight for a concert and dance. Good Music The "Association" met "through osmosis" three years ago in Los Angeles, California. All cast-off's from other rock and roll groups, Terry, Brian Cole, Russ Giguere and Ted Bluechel formed together for the purpose of "making good music." A fifth musician, Gary Alexander, who was also part of the original group has left to pursue other interests and has been replaced. Three Hits "We have a philosophy about our music," said Terry, the. author of "Cherish."

Each of the "Association's " top-elling hits, "Along Comes Mary," "Cherish" and "Wendy" has been uniquely different. "It's because we never stop searching for that one song that hasn't been recorded yet," said Terry. In addition to their single re-, leased, the "Association" has also released two albums, "Along Comes the Association" and "Renaissance."All Friends A third album is scheduled for release during August. "Being friends and good musicians is the key to being a successful group," said Russ Giguere, "of course we have to be good friends or we couldn't stand each other." He added, " we couldn't be the "Association" if we weren't." The "Association" have appeared on the "Milton Berle COLLEGIATE WEEKLY : f r v S Utah tonight for a special concert. Show," "Johnny Carson Show," "Mike Douglas Show," and the "Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour." Special Concert They also appeared in Utah last summer at "The Blue Door Stir at the Valley Music Hall starring the Association. The group gave an hour's performance at the music hall, then were special guests at a party in their honor of "Lagoon." As they rode the bumper cars, roller coaster and ate hot dogs with mustard and relish, they said "how fun" it would be "to come back to Lagoon." One hit record and two albums later, the "Association" will be back, starring at Lagoon's Pation Gardens. "It should be jolly good fun," said Russ. 1 Summer Schedule & Afternoons 1:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. I ' Monday thru Saturday j, 1 Evenings , 4 8 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday The Pussy Cat Is Cheaper Than Owning a Tiger Many of today's automobiles have wild names. Not ours. Ours is a Pussy Cat compared to the rest. It has a tame realistic price and taking care of it is no problem at all. The Pussy Cat or Karmann Ghia as it actually is named is a Volkswagen. That is why a gallon of gas is good for around 28 miles. So if you want a sports car that doesn't cost sports car prices stop in today. ROY STRONG MOTORS Ogden' s Authorized VW Dealer 3333 WALL AVENUE Jazz, Pop Musicians Combine for Ed Ames and Count Basie will open July 28th at the Valley Music Hall with an evening performance Friday and two performances Sat-uday July 29th. The first performance Saturday will be at 6:30 p.m. and the second at 9:30 p.m. Ed Ames is a versatile, all around performer, who has the unusual distinction of achieveingstar status in two separate careers. Ames currently co-stars as "Mingo", the oxford-educated son of a Cherokee Indian mother and an English father on NBC -TV's "Daniel Boone" series and is among the Best-Selling Artists on the RCA Victor record label. Ames is also a stage performer in both musical comedy and dramatic roles, and headlines in night clubs. He has also appeared from time to time as a guest star on top TV variety shows, and as the headliner of outdoor attractions at fairs and rodeos. In the summer of 1964 he was approached by the RCA Victor company with an offer to record an album of tunes from Broadway shows. Thus, after a recording hiatus of four years, Ames cut an album, titles, "Opening Night with Ed Ames".

Ames' recording of "Try to Remember", from "The Fantastiks", thus e-merged as one of the bit hit recordings of 1965. His current recording of "My Cup Runneth Over" has sold over a million copies. Count Basie, "the most explosive force in Jazz" The count has won almost every conceivable award with his music. A measure of the esteem in which Count Basie is held by his fellow musicians can be gathered by a partial listing of the 62 who voted his band the "Greatest Ever" as well as the "New Star" in the musicians poll of Leonard Feather's 1956 Encyclopedia Year Book of Jazz. Louis Armstrong, Bobby Hackett, Woody Herman, Stan Getz, Dizzy Gillespie, Tommy and Jimmy Dorsey, Eddie Condon, Nat Cole, Erroll Garner, Andre Previn, and Pete Rugolo are just some of the names that voted for him.
