EDDIE VAN HALEN CAN STILL PLAY GUITAR, BUT CAN HE STILL “JUMP?”

Wow, we wouldn’t have recognized Eddie Van Halen, 56, if we bumped right into him! He’s changed a lot, but he’s survived tongue cancer and rehab and he’s still making music so we have to give him credit. The last time we saw him perform a few years ago he looked like a bum with rotten teeth and his feet flapping out of his shoes. He’s cleaned up and above, he’s with his new wife Janie Liszewski leaving their hotel in New York.

Freddie Mercury Michael Jackson Music Queen

GET READY FOR A MICHAEL JACKSON/FREDDIE MERCURY DUET

We have the feeling that Michael Jackson is one of those singers who die but continue to release new music for years to come. Michael was a huge fan of Freddie Mercury of Queen back in the 80’s and frequently had him over to the house when Queen was on tour in the US. During one visit Freddie and Michael recorded some songs together. The music never saw the light of day until now. Michael’s estate has just okayed the release of the songs and Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen are putting the finishing touches on the music.

MOVE OVER DARLING, DORIS DAY IS RELEASING A NEW ALBUM

We couldn’t pass up this bit of nostalgic news. 87 year old Doris Day has just released her first album in 17 years called “My Heart.” Good for HER! It’s a personal collection of songs that reflect her love for her late son Terry Melcher and her animals. Music producer/songwriter Terry produced several of the songs before he died in 2004. Doris was a huge boxoffice star in the 1960’s, but when her husband Marty Melcher died in 1968, she discovered that he had squandered all her money and left her deeply in debt. No wonder she prefers animals. Sony released this recent photo of Doris with her dog Duffy to promote the album.

Johnny Depp might be looking for YOU! According to The Sun, he’s starting his own record label called Unison Music and has a team scouting for talent – checking out up and coming bands in London’s dingy dives. It makes sense – Johnny has always been an aspiring rock musician – he was in a band when he got his first acting job and still plays music every chance he gets. He’s played guitar with Oasis on more than one recording and he collaborates with his pal Shane MacGowan of The Pogues.

RYAN GOSLING MAKES HIS OWN DREAMS COME TRUE

Ryan Gosling has joined the ever lengthening list of actors yearning to be musicians/rockstars – he’s in good company: Jared Leto, Dennis Quaid, Keanu Reeves, Kevin Costner, Johnny Depp, etc. Ryan’s band, Dean Man’s Bones, which is described as goth and spooky, toured the country in October, finishing up in LA. His partner in the two man band is Zach Shields – they met in Canada in 2005 when they were dating sisters. (Rachel McAdams and her sister Kayleen)
