| Happy birthday, John Lennon - If a crazed fan hadn't murdered him in 1980, and barring other unforeseen disasters, today would have been John Lennon's 64th birthday. For Beatles' fans, even casual Beatles' fans, the number has a musical ring. One of the great songs from the Paul McCartney/John Lennon songbook is titled "When I'm Sixty-Four." If you were there when the song came out, you might remember feeling that 64 was as distant as the North Star. "When I get older losing my hair, Many years from now. Will you still be sending me a valentine, Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?" Here's a valentine to you, John. |
Little Steven starts own record label by Larry McShane (AP)
| NEW YORK - It's not like Steven Van Zandt doesn't have enough to keep him busy. There's his job as host of his nationally syndicated "Underground Garage" radio program, with more than 1 million listeners in 200 markets. And his position as head of his own channel on Sirius Satellite Radio. And his role as consigliere Silvio Dante on "The Sopranos." Oh, and he's the guitarist with Bruce Springsteen's E Street Band. Yet this week, Van Zandt added another line to his rapidly expanding resume: head of his own record label. In a deal with Best Buy stores, he rolled out the first six records on his rocking new label. - story |
