The Best of Everything
II. DANNY
THE FIRST engage-
ment of "Friendship"
now appearing at the Top
0' The Pontch at Hotel
Pontchartrain, is a good
one . . . The group,
headed by bassist-
vocalist Mark Lashlee,
and featuring John Wil-
liams, Mel Ball's very fine
pianist-arranger (both
Mark and John are from
Mel's Colours aggrega-
tion) . . . plus song stylist
Mary Gutzi, Rick Catoni,
rhythm guitar; and
brother Ron Catoni on
drums.
"Friendship" weaves
its very versatile and
harmonious talents
through all phases of lis-
tening and dance music
. . . contemporary,
Latin-American (John on
Brazil is sensational),
soft rock disco type,
rhythm and blues, stan-
dards, pops, etc. . . . It is
most pleasant to listen to
. . . very well coordinated
and balanced . . . playing
songs of today and yes-
terday in easy-goino
tempo so delightful to the
eardrums.
All are very good musi-
cians in their own rights
. . . plus Mary also being a
fine budding young ac-
tress (her gypsy woman
portrayal in "El Capitan"
with Dick Shawn at the
Music Hall was outstand-
ing) . . . The five blend to-
gether in an excellent
sound that at times fea-
tures three- and four-part
harmony.
More will be heard
about "Friendship" . . .
It is an exciting new
group.
Against a scenic
background of which
there is no better here at
night . . . the panoramic
26th floor view of Detroit
and Canada . . . we had a
rack-of-lamb dinner
which Pontchartrain food
and beverage director Ole
Christiansen said, "I'll
stack it up against any in
the country, even Ernie's
in San Francisco." . . .
Whatever herbs it is
marinated in (wish we
had the recipe), the rack
of lamb we had was little
short of sensational . . .
tender, easy to eat and
extremely tasty.
What with "Friend-
ship" and the rack of
lamb, an evening at the
Top 0' The Pontch made
for much pleasant time
spent.
Dennis Horvath, nice-
looking, well-mannered
and very pleasant man-
ager at the Top 0' The
Pontch, also heads those
most interesting and
much to do Detroit To-
night Tours . . . In fact, it
is such a wonderful thing
that Dennis will undoub-
tedly expand it to take in
Metropolitan Detroit . . .
a great idea!
NO TRUTH to the
rumor that Jakk's
Lounge on Greenfield and
10 Mile has been sold . .
It is still under the same
ownership.
SON OF THE Sundog on
Michigan and Telegraph
is another of the Chuck
Muer operated tavern-
type operations for ham-
burgers, ribs, steak, some
-
RASKIN
fish . . . and a giant tele-
vision screen . . . It is
much like Northville
Charley's, and the new
Bloomfield Charley's
soon to open at Maple and
Orchard Lake Rd.. . . on
the site of the former
Ponderosa.
KINGSTON TRIO does
a one-nighter this Mon-
day at the Belanger
House Supper Club, N.
Main at 12 Mile.
Belanger House dinner
menu has been expanded
and main dining room has
returned to a supper club-
atmosphere . . . Lister
ing and dance music oi
Moon Shadow, Wednes-
day through Saturday, is
very popular with the 30
and up crowd . . .
Downstairs still features
top 40 soft rock music by
group called Harvest,
Tuesday through Satur-
day.
THE TUMULT, shout-
ing and adulation re-
cently at Joe Katz's
McDonald's on Greenfield
in Oak Park, recently was
directed to Horshack, one
of the . mainstays of the
popular TV series, "Wel-
come Back, Kotter" . . .
Dave Lewis, copywriter
at W. B. Doner Advertis-
ing, doing some commer-
cials with the TV star,
wound up at the hum-
burger spot for a lunch
break.
RETURN ENGAGE-
MENT has songster Chad
Mitchell at the Raven
Gallery, 12 and Green-
field through Nov. 21.
,WANT TO HEAR the
likes of Glenn Miller's
music? . . . Or Perry
Como's voice double? . .
The great sounds are on
Wednesday and Thurs-
day nights at the new
Carl's Kansas City Steak
House on 14 Mile, past
I-75 and a couple blocks
east of John R . . .
Wally Messina, the
gent who's been around
so many spots as a great
favorite, is here with his
quartet making the big
band sounds of the 40's
and 50's . . . and warbl-
ing a la Como.
From Bar Mitzvas to
orchestras of Jean Gold-
kette, Red Norvo, Vau-
ghn Monroe, Art Tatum,
Jan August, George
Shearing . . . and back-
up band for Tony Ben-
nett, Ethel Smith, June
Christie, Bob Eberle,
Chris Conners among
hundreds more is Wally's
roundings.
Here in Detroit, Wally
has been at the Burgundy
Room of Hotel Ft. Wayne,
Alamo, Roostertail and'
Town Pump among
others.
In the Wednesday and
Thursday night stint at
Carl's Kansas City Steak
House, he has Vince Fan-
falone, sax; Jack Marx,
bass; and Charlie Ghinelli,
drums . . . playing a lot of
great music that so many
people enjoy.
Wally's quartet must be
considered among the
tops in this locale . . .
putting out much
rhythmic goodness that
does very honorable cre-
