WASHINGTON, D.C.—The 20th ANNIVERSARY MARCH FOR
JOBS, PEACE AND FREEDOM attracted more than 300,000 sup
porters from across the country here on Saturday, August 27 in front
of the Lincoln Memorial. Reminiscent of the 1963 March on
Washington led by the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., march
organizers, civil rights leaders and participants (above) joined Coretta
Scott King and her family in singing the song, “We Shall Overcome.”

Vandross on charts
110 consecutive weeks
Luther Van dross has
remained on the record
charts for over 110 con
secutive weeks with either
solo LPs or albums he’s
produced for other ar
tists.
Vandross’ first solo ef
fort, Never Too Much
(Epic Records), which
was first released in 1981,
clung to the R&B charts
for 84 weeks. Then his
second solo LP, Forever,
For Always, For Love,
remained on the charts
for 43 weeks.
Just as Forever, For
Always, For Love was
sliding from the charts,

fact, as of this writing,
“Get It Right,” the Van
dross produced and co
written single from
Aretha’s LP, is number
one.
In the last year, Van
dross has often had as
many as three LPs on the
charts simultaneously... a
feat he may repeat this
winter. By Christmas,
Luther will probably be
charting with Aretha’s
album, his own upcoming
solo LP (which he plans
to begin producing in
September) and the new
album by Dionne War

will finish producing
shortly). •
