Page 4B KINGS MOUNTAIN MIRROR Thursday. AprU 18.1874 JVT AND FAILE GOOD COMBO - Needless to say the World Premiere of Earl Owensby’s movie CHALLENGE was quite a success. The street in front of the Rogers Theatre was packed with spectators straining to see the stars of the locally filmed action movie. Among those in the crowd were Jerry Van Tassel, local singing talent and his wife Marlene. Jerry’s manager Tom Brooks and his wife Elaine were with JVT and Marlene. In case you didn’t know, Jerry wrote two songs for the movie, “Together” and “Challenge”. Due to contractual difficulties, Jerry was unable to sing his songs on the soundtrack but Charlotte’s Tommy Faile was drafted for the pleasant duty. The tune “Together” was played in a flashback segment. Earl, playing John Frank Challoige, was pursuing his wife and child’s killers and in one scene, the flashback, he was with his family at an amusement park. The mood of the trio as toey enjoyed (xie another’s company was excellaitly captured by Jerry’s lyrics and Tommy’s fine bass voice. Manager Tom noted after the film that a calliope or electric organ may have enhanced the tune a bit more but added he was quite pleased with the songs. arrive at Rafters Theater YOUR HOME IS WORTH MORE TODAY $ $ $ $ WILL YOUR INSURANCE REPLACE YOUR HOME To Find Out The Replacement Value Of Your Home, Contact C.E.

Hidis), the villain of the film. Buttms were bustin’ after the movie ended, as well they should be. Earl and his crew are to be commended for a fine film without profanity and explicit sex scenes. Following the movie, an “afterwards” party was held at the Hdiday Inn in Shelby, and I asked Owensby his reactions to Jerry’s scores. “Jerry’s a very talented writer”, Earl said, “and he did a fine job with the songs he did for us.” Like the auto mechanic who never fixes his own car, Tommy Faile admitted Friday that he had not yet seen the movie or heard the recordings he did. “I’ve been on the road quite a lot recently,” Faile said, “an I didn’t get a chance to go to the (x-emiere. I have heard several comments from folks who saw the movie or have heard the records and all comments have been real favorable.” Hie two tunes Tommy did, “Together” and “Challenge” are being released on a single. Tommy said an album is also being produced to ooincidia with the movie and will feature the two songs as well as others. One other song in par ticular was written and released by Faile some time back and was used as a juke box tune in the movie. Tommy said, “Martin Beck (the directw of CHALLENGE) hada c(^y of the record I made, IF I MISS THAT TRAIN, and he decided to use it in the juke box segment.” cherry orange flavors ospergum temporary relief of sore throat pain mfg. sugg. price 49^ white rain shampoo balsam herbal lemon mfg. sugg. price $1.25 one application ton! $133 home permanent mfg. sugg price $2.29 mfg. sugg. price $1.00 adorn | J \ hair spray regular hard to hold unscented ultra hold *137 I corfectol I tablets $109' mfg. sugg." ^ price $2.35 A ^ r.7 Speaking of Van Tassel’s songs.
