WAYLON'S incomparable style, and songs written by Steely Dan, Jimmy Buffett, J. J. Cale, along with some of the finest players all combine to make the music album, by the MUSIC MAN WAYLON.
They're a little country, a little rock'n roll & R&B—they're RCA's hottest new group debuing with the #1 single "TENNESSEE RIVER" and great new album MY HOME'S IN ALABAMA that also includes the hits 'I WANNA COME OVER,' "'MY HOME'S IN ALABAMA" and latest single, 'WHY LADY WHY.' The south shall indeed rise again with ALABAMA!
Years spent prowling honky tonks and clubs with his growing guitar have lit the fuse exploding GARY STEWART into a major star. Gary's stompin' steamin' new album extends his reign as the rockin' king of Honky Tonk, while he shares the stage and studio with the southern rock elite, coming up with such destined-to-be-classics as "CACTUS AND A ROSE," "ROARIN'," "GHOST TRAIN" AND "HOW COULD WE COME TO THIS." It's Rock'n Roarin' GARY STEWART at his untameable best!

In other action, the Senate voted to write a third letter to the Kansas Board of Regents requesting that it place a member of the boarded staff on the chancellor search committee.
O'Neill said there had been no response from Bernard Franklin, Regents chairman, to a letter sent in July requesting the addition to the committee.
The search committee is made up of faculty, students and alumni and was chosen by the Board of Regents.
O'Neill said the third letter would say, "I would like the courtesy of a response."
Jacob Kleinberg, search committee chairman,
he has not heard from the chancellor about
the case.
She said that Acting Chancellor Del Shankle recommended the search committee allow classified members to meet with finalists if the Regents did not approve the change.
Classified representatives would submit their recommendations for chancellor to the search committee after meeting with the finalists, O'Neill said.
The American Association of University Professors also has asked for meetings with the finalists for chancellor, and one senator suggested the groups work together.
