STRANGELY new and dark faces are beginning to show Lhemselves In the NME singles chart, and out there
on the So.ul and Underground scenes there are people who are understandably beginning to wonder what It's all about! This sudden Sunshine Boom may have gone an~ given West Indian music and the Upsetters, Jimmy Cliff, Harry J. and the All-Stars and the Pioneers their bigges_t fling In the history of the Top Thirty .... but there are sull plenty of fans who obviously wouldn't know a reggae from rugger .
To help these people, I've been speaking lhis week to some or the backroom boys behin<l tht' Caribbean ln\'Hlon. And Lhei:- answers make up a fascinating "Teach In " on the subjtct, lhat may well open the
eyes of ma ny new reggae fans. Did you know, fo r in1tance,
•bout •Jla Re1tafarians7 Or the truth abou: the Tsraeliles? Or know about the We.st Indian blble which maintains tha t J e.su1 was b lack?

tha t member Terry WIiiia ms plays no Sess Chan 20-strtng guitar; thn t Mary Arnold Is a trained psychologist and once hosted her own TV show; and that th e 1roup has a newcomer, Kin Vassy, who had a previous career as a highly-rated d-j.
Kin tnkes over from Mike Se ttle, who was a founder member of the First Edllion with Kenny. There were no hang-ups when he left, however ... Mike has long been a prolific composer a nd songwriter , And he's now gone on to concentrate on work In television.
By --ALAN SMITH Having so many capable and self-sufflelenl peoplt- In lhe line- up
could have caused problems, but Kenny gladly points out that they' re • happy t.eam who spark off a creative splrll In each other.

Tom saw them appearing together In their early days, was so lmpreued with their unusual sound _ond enthusiasm that he became their adviser, a nd later gave them heavy promollon on the Smolhers Brothers' networked lV show.
One of the group's ftrat successful records In the U.S. was a little thing called "Jus t Dropped In To See Wha t Condition J\ty Condi•

spending a great deal or time songwriting. Each of the group'• first three U.S. albums features at least two of Terry's numbers.
Mary Arnold ls from Iowa, and Is a music graduate as well as a psychologist; and newcomer Ki n Is a Georgia man described as having "polish and experience far beyond his years." He's in his mid-twenties: and formerly a d-J with his father's rtidio staUon. Kin plays guitar, piano, bass and trumpet.
Not to be outdone, drummer Mickey has spread his wings a lltlle bit beyond the music scene - Into Hims.
He's had sizeable roles In the fi lms "WIid In The Streets", .. Fin Ian's Rainbow", "Star" and .. Camelot", and he's also appeared In TV serles like "Daniel Boone" and "High Chapparal".

DIANA'S *Someday We' ll Be Together Again.(Tamla) THERE'S an ironic twist to this title. bearing
in mind it's Diana Ross' final single with the Supremes before she breaks away to go solo. And to mark the occasion Tamla
LAST SUPREME
has ensured that it really is a show case for the seductive Diana. Indeed, it could almost be her first solo dis c . for the other Suprem es only pop up occasionally with chanting -augmented by an unidentified male voice.

THE Rolling Stones are to appear in concer t at London's Lyceum Ball-room on Sunday, December 21. There will be one peifnnnance only,
but it is_ not yet clear whether the Stones will perform throughout the show or will have other attractions to support them. A second London concert for the group is currently being se t - it is hoped to schedule this for the previous Sunday (14), provided a suitable venue can be found. As exchlsively reported in the NME las t week, the Royal Albert Ha ll refused to accept a booking for the Stones, and the main problem now is to find an available theatre which can accommodate as many fans as possible. The Stones are due to return from their triumphant U.S. tour early next week.

GREAT STONES ALBUM! declares
RICHARD GREEN
ROLLING STONES: LET lT BLEED (Decca mono and , tereo SKL/LK 5025; 37s 6d, Released December 5).
WHAT a great album! The Stones have obviously put a lot of thought and hard
work into it and I have no hesitation in naming it one of the Top Five LPs of 1969-people are ~oing to have to go a long way to beat it.
There's so much veri~ty that each track makes you wanl to hea r it again nnd again. The late Brian Jones 1s heard on a couple of numbers a nd Mick Taylor :i ppen rs on his first Stones album. ll 's rea lly an incredi ble piece of work that shows the group a nd friends at lheir best. r.lMMIE SHELTER.
