agreed to direct her next video

They were supposed to shoot
"One Of The Living" in July,
but couldn't find the right location
to match the feeling they
needed. Since Turner is on a tour
which takes her through
December, they're going to have
to squeeze in the video shoot
whenever she has time. No date
has been set yet. ...

album, "Come Get It." The two
acts met while rehearsing at the
same Hollywood studio. Working
at the same studio with the
group Stargard was Danny
Lemelle, who would eventually
be hired by Rick to join his Funk
Punk section. Later when Rick
was looking for a new addition to
the Punk Funk horns, Danny
remembered Chris. Chris was
with Rick for three years before
deciding to return home to start
his own band.
'I went back looking for the
very best musicians I could find
in Columbus?' recalls Powell.
"Everybody -- Eric, Recco, Alexandro
? were working on demo
tapes and had lots of tunes and
ideas. So, when we got together,
things really clicked and we just
put it all together."
Once they completed the demo
tape, Powell headed back to Los
Angeles, shopping for a deal.
Though close to signing with
another major label at the time, a
meeting with a Motown promotion

Benny Medina led to

SBA Loan Pool
WASHINGTON - Investors
were recently offered the chance
to buy into a pool4 of Small
Business Administration loans.
The first pool was announced
in New York by Merrill Lynch
Pierce Fenner and Smith. A pooling
agreement was signed by the
broker-dealer firm and James C.
Sanders, an SBA administrator.
Under the new program,
designated financial institutions
will purchase a number of SBA
business loans, assemble those
loans into a pool then sell shares
^ . ? 1 A _ C A AL
01 Hie pool lO investors, cawn
pool must include SBA loans
with a total value of at least $1
million. Shares can be sold for as
little as $25,000.
The loan pool will increase the
availability of long-term fixedrate
financing to small
businesses, Sanders said.
"This is an exciting opportunity
for investors, financial institutions
and small businesses,"
Sanders said about the program.
The SBA was authorized to
create the pooling program by
President Ronald Reagan.
For additional information
about the SBA loan pool, write to
the U.S. Small Business Administration,

"Benny came to the studio and
stayed with us practically all
night. A few hours after he left, 1
got'a call from him offering us a
deal," recounted Powell.
That deal has lead to the beginning
of a new era for Motown.
The music and the words are
more impulsive, more sexually
tensed, more KoKo-PoP.
