Rita Co( BY BOB CRAFT So. Friday is the University Union's first concert of the year. Kris Kristofferson and Rita Coolidge will be in the Carolina Coliseum. At this eleventh hour, you probably know which way you're going to decide about at tending, but in case you haven't here's some stuff about Rita Coolidge. Rita Coolidge, like Aretha Franklin, is the daughter of a preacher and she learned to sing by doing various choir lofts since she was knee high as she and her family moved around the country. The family alighted in Florida when she was fifteen and she stayed there long enough to put in time at Florida State before she headed for Memphis to sing radio spots and jingles, signed with a company and cut a fairly suc cessful record.

She had a solo spot in the "Mad Dogs and Englishmen" tour which included such people as Leon Russell, Jim Gordon and Carl Radle. She cut her first album with some of the musicians repaying all the work she had done for them. Several tours criss-crossing America with the Dixie Flyers of Muscle Shoals-to Europe with The Byrds and then her new album, "Nice Feelin' ". Instead of another supersession, Rita used Mark Benno and the Dixie Flyers and songs by Neil Young, Dylan, Graham Nash and henno. Her version of Young's "I Believe in You" was a giant seller in Canada. "The Delta Lady" will be here with her "Good ole country boy" tomorrow night. So. the contrast stitch.
