Streisand and Elvis Duet- Seriously?

For the life of me I can not figure out why any real Elvis fan would be excited about this. I will NEVER listen to this duet. C'mon guys, you are sell outs! We all know from various sources for MANY years, EP did not like Streisand . Stop drinking the Kool Aid EPE is selling you! Elvis was the King of Rock n Roll not easy listening! A friend of mine recently pointed out how Elvis is now lumped in with Tony Bennett on those late night Time life infomercials. Elvis is becoming irrelevant and WE fans are accepting it! Let's not allow history to be recreated. We want Elvis' legacy to be properly preserved for future generations, don't we? Am I alone here? Geez it's bad enough EPE wants to take your hard earned dollars that you should be putting away for retirement to build their hotel. The rewards you get are laughable. If they sought investors, each would get a percentage of profits. Yet fans investing get what? An advanced offer to give them MORE money. What ...

Sugar Man- Copyright and fraud lawsuit filed against Clarence Avant

Image
Two years after Oscar-winning film, Searching for Sugar Man raised questions about royalties for Sixto Rodriguez , a copyright and fraud lawsuit has been filed against Clarence Avant , who signed the Detroit singer to a record deal more than four decades ago. Rodriguez is not a direct party in the complaint, filed in Detroit federal court by Gomba Music , which is owned by longtime Michigan music executive Harry Balk . But the musician does stand to benefit if Gomba is successful. Speaking with the Detriot Free Press, Avant denied wrongdoing. “I think I’ve been pretty fair to Rodriguez all along,” said Avant, 83. “I wish him nothing but the best, because I think he deserves it. I admire the nerve.”  Gomba said it had an exclusive songwriting deal with Rodriguez that was willfully ignored by Avant , whose Los Angeles-based Venture Records released the musician’s “Cold Fact” album in 1970 . Gomba holds songwriting copyrights for those Rodriguez songs, the compla...

On May 7th, 2014 Chip Esten performed a free concert in Washington, D.C., as part of a three day event hosted by The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), centered around a critical call-to-action: Leading the Way to a World without Blood Cancers. Spry Living chatted with the Southern heartthrob to learn more about his daughter’s battle with leukemia, working on the set of Nashville and more. SL: What was it like having a young child with cancer?  CE: A couple of weeks before Addie’s diagnosis, we had been sitting in a hospital waiting room for an unrelated health issue. There had been a group of pediatric chemo patients sitting in the waiting room with their parents. The children had that distinct chemo “look” about them: they had lost their hair; their faces were swollen. As an actor, what struck me most, however, was that it wasn’t all morose and dramatic. The children were playing with the waiting room toys and books; the parents were casually talking to one another....
