SHOW AND TELL Artist: A1 Wilson Recently we covered the groovy show at the number one “Show place of the South” Atlanta’s own Sweet Gum Head. We were cor dially welcomed by Art El- liston, and found that we were in for a very enter taining evening. Mr. Allison, tore up the stage with a wild rendition of “Hello Dolly”. A few customers laughingly en joyed a “Champagne bath,” as Allison offered drinks from a bottle that was de finitely. . .no prop. It was loaded!!!! And audience participation was the thing. With the self assurance, and aire of a professional, Allison delighted fans with his emotion packed per formance. It isn’t easy to follow an act like this, but Deva Sanchez did in an intense grand soul manner. This big mama knows how to “sock it to 'em.” And Deva baby, you did! Interested in something different? Well, everyone loves “teddy bears,” and the Sweet Gum Head has one of their very own. Julie’s the name, and male im personation is her game. She’s a natural, and the audience loved her (Only six months experience too!) Last, but not in anyway the least, tall slender “Mar lowe” was terriffic as she added even more variety to the show with her sing ing and baton twirling act. _We have seen why the Sweet Gum Head is the number one “show place of the South.” During in termission, customers crowded the dance floor as the dynamite disc jockey Tom Tom played the top tunes. We also noted that all of the employees at the Sweet Gum Head were so soft spoken and courteous, len ding that “personal touch” to a truly enjoyable even ing out. Here’s news!!! For those of you who were fortunate enough to see the “Came- lot Spectacular” 1973 Miss Gay Atlanta Pageant, Art has informed us that June 22nd, the 1974 MGA is to be held.
