Jo Mama hasn't made the cover of "Time," "Rolling Stone" or any other major publication- The group hasn't yet been canonized and may never join the saintly circle of rock. Upon this rock, heroes and heroines are built.

Or some equally atrocious pun could be made. But Jo Mama is interesting-collec-tively, as musicians and individually, as human beings. Their name, for example, is worth some weighty thought. Is it meaningless? Forthwith, the etymology of Jo Mama. "We were sitting around trying to think up names," Gale Hahess, the group's singer, recollects.

"During our first gig, six weeks at the Factory in Los Angeles, we had a different name every night: Baby Toshiba and the Del Rays, the Red Squids, just plain Red, Sister Agnew and the Malaprop, Flash and the Bummers, Sparky Lust. It was 'how about' this and 'how about' that, till someone said 'how's jo (your) That was it." The group's name reflects its members' no-nonsense approach to music and show business in general. Nearly all have been the route, playing for many groups on various labels. Danny Kootch was with the Flying Machine in the company of James Taylor. He is Jo Mama's guitarist and chief writer.

Kootch says, "All the bands I've been in where we were going to be the biggest thing in the world failed miserably. We just want to play for people who like our music." A modest i. si Danny Kootch was in the King Bees and made a few singles for RCA Victor, played with James Taylor in the aforementioned group and spent six months each with the Fus zvA dear Light. Bass Liver Charlie Larkey also played in the Fugs as well as a group called the Middle Class, met Gale while both were in Murray the Ks show in New-York and was in a group called the City with Carole King (whom he recently married). Pianist Ralph Schuckctt started out in a group called the Mann Beevil Sneak Band, named after a legendary bluesman, also played in Clear Light and did session work with musicians like David Blue.

Drummer Joel O'Brien, was also in Taylor's -Flying Mchine. He played on Taylor's Apple album as "Bishop" O'Brien and toured in Far East USO clubs. Gale Haness first clicked as a singer at the Peppermint Lounge in New York. After performing with Murray the and making some singles for Bang records, she came to Los Angeles where she played the parts of Chrissy and Sheila in "Hair." Peter Lawford's wife, a high school friend of hers, suggested she put a band together to play the Factory. She discovered Danny, Ralph, Joel and Charlie, all old friends who were in Los Angeles and between jobs.

All looked upon the Factory gig as an opportunity to make some money, nothing more. The audience expected them to play familiar, top 40 tunes, but not to play them too loud. "We were always insulting them, subliminally," Gale says. "We changed Wild Thing' to Wild They told us to play softer and one night we played so soft they couldn't hear us and nobody complained." At the end of six weeks, there was nothing else for them to do, so they stuck together. Schuckett played agent and got bookings at places like the Topanga Corral in Topanga Canyon and the Flying Jib in Redondo Beach.

So was the ambition or inspiration I ale Haness once had. She was once prevented from singing "You're Just Too Good to be True" a capclla in a 'nun's habit at New York's Electric Circus because Bobby Kennedy was in the audience.

She remains very much an iconoclast. This is Gale's first experience with a group. "It's most gratifying," she says. PRESENTS A (2) TE JAMESTAYLOR'S -SISTER'S FIRST ALBUM group. And Peter Ashe ud produced James Taylor's two 3 wanted to work with Jo Mama.
