Can you believe
Rod Stewart
has sold just as many albums in the past few
years as he did in the entire 70's? It's
true "some
guys have all the luck", but not
many from Stewart's era can say three of
their last five albums went to #1. While
Stewart's "Great American Songbook" series
paid tribute to pop standards of the 30s and
40s, his new album, called "Soulbook", is a
collection of more covers,
this time
showcasing his "infatuation"
with Motown. And at age 64, "ya
may not think he's sexy" but he's
planning to stay "forever
young" by having
one more
child.
If it's a girl, how about getting her a
Joan Jett
Barbie doll?? This December look out for a
"Ladies of the ‘80s”
line
featuring mini versions of Joan,
Debbie Harry
and
Cyndi Lauper.
Their clothing will vary from leather pants
and hot pink high tops to fishnets. This may
be the first line of Barbies to get a "bad
reputation" for "loving
rock and roll".
However the real question is, why doesn't
Rock and Roll love
Hall & Oates?
Well, the Hall of Fame that is! Talk show
host and celebrity chef Rachael Ray has
decided to go "one
on one" with the Hall after
learning the legendary pop duo are not yet
members. Since Ray "can't
go for that" she has "cooked up"
a
petition
with hopes of "making
her dreams come true".
You know, it IS hard to believe Hall and
Oates haven't even been considered for the
Hall of Fame, let alone inducted. How could
they have missed that one? It makes you
wonder if some members of the Rock and Roll
Hall of Fame Foundation have their
pilot license
too.
