Pepper album.

Others figure that anything even Yummy Yummy is an improvement over Bill Haley's first forays into the rock arena. Still others feel rock never did get off its knees. Ed Cassidy, the widely experienced bald-headed drummer with Spirit, a hard-hitting West Coast group, has a different point of view. He figures the golden era of pop is yet to come. "I think we're just reaching the beginning of the end result of rock," he said from Los Angeles this week.

"But it will be another couple of years before we can look back and see what it has all come to. "Of course, it's difficult to be precise because there are no yardsticks. Pop hasn't hit any peaks yet, there have only been fads. "People are digging into the music itself now, finding out things, re-creating, adapting; it all adds up to the fact that the really great horizons of rock are just becoming visible." MOST RECENTLY CASSIDY HAS CON-centrate on modern jazz. Then, realizing that rock was starting to offer more to the serious musician, he abandoned jazz.

"There is a lack of creativity, a lack of bread, and much hate and uptightness in tha jazz scene these days, with the exception of a few beautiful people such as Coltrane, Bru-beck, Monk, and Don Ellis. It's a very disturbed picture. But I was part of it, and in my way, I was as sick as the rest. There I was doing it, grooving on it, thinking it was what's happening. But it's a dead end street as a whole, the jazz idiom is very ugly now.

They fought it for years, but now they're seeing that really, pop is where it's all at." Spirit's lineup includes Mark Christopher Andes (bass and vocals); John Locks (piano); Randy California (lead guitar and vocals); Jay Ferguson (lead singer) and Cassidy. All of its material is original. Randy California once had a New York group with Jimi Hendrix.

"Originally we wanted to fio something away from the tired rock scene we'd been hearing," Cassidy said. Mahalia Jackson She Can Afford to Rest MANY MORE UNLISTED CASH and CARRY BARGAINS mmm gold 27 INCH WOOL VELVET lesson, gospel music was little known outside the South. Indeed, it was difficult to get the music accepted in many churches. Miss Jackson sang basement congregations and storefront church gatherings. "In those days the big colored churches didn't want me and didn't let me in," she wrote.

At that time, it was considered bad taste to sing religious songs with such vigor. It was the same as bringing the jazz of night clubs and sporting houses into the church, the argument went. IN 1964, MISS JACK-son suffered a heart attack that brought on a long period of illness and recuperation. She went from 260 to 150 pounds. In many of her recent public appearances, she has been in weak form.

No longer does she seem capable of consistently singing "Move On Up a Little Higher" or "How I Got Over" with the old power and fire. She may never again reach that plane she soared on for 25 years. But this Baptist woman of much quality can afford to rest on her laurels. MISS JACKSON WAS ONE of Dr. Martin Luther King's favorite singers.

Many times he called on her to perform benefit concerts for the Southern i i a Leadership Conference (SCLC), and she always responded. She once said she never thought of him as an ordinary man. God had to send that man to wake up his people," she told Granville Watts in an interview. "And many called him Moses. Whatever name they called him, he was sent from God." One of the most memorable days for the two of them was the March in Washington in August, 1963.

Miss Jackson gave a deeply moving performance of "I Been 'Buked and I Been Scorned," a song Dr. King requested. He followed by delivering his classic "I Have a Dream" speech.

WEST Washington Post WASHINGTON In her autobiography, "Movin' On Up," Mahalia Jackson tells the story of how she had her one and only experience with a voice lesson. The teacher was a black operatic singer who had carved out a small concert career. The place was Chicago in 1932 when Miss Jackson was known only to a few church congregations in the Midwest. The teacher had her sing the spiritual, "Standing in the Need of Prayer." Using the fiery zeal that has always been part of her vocal art, she infused the ordinarily somber song with an infectious rhythm that caused the teacher to frown with disgust. He told her she needed to stop "hollering" and learn to sing so that whites could understand her Miss Jackson turned away in confusion and vowed to continue singing her way.

THE REST IS NOT ONLY gospel music history; it is also part of the history of popular music in this country, for gospel music is one of the main sources of soul music. Artists such as Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, Warwick, Johnnie Taylor and many others came straight out of the Negro church and gospel tradition. Nearly every church of the Baptist and Holiness variety in the black community has a gospel choir.
