While I’m having some trouble with actresses thinking that they can sing, I have no problem with other people from different industries thinking so. They may not be able to do anything about rising gas prices but a band comprised of US Reps Colin Peterson, Dave Weldon, Jon Porter and Kenny Hulshof, called The Second Amendments, can play a mean cover of Santana’s ‘Evil Ways’. If their political careers ever went down the drain, they can always turn to their music. This is what the music industry needs – talent and not some famous face thinking that she can sing her way out of the bathroom.

The ex-manager of the group Blondie is claiming that his former charges and its record label owes him some money after all these years. Pete Leeds claims that they changed the way they pay him, cheating him out of a bundle of cash. And he says that he wants his due.
In papers filed in New York Supreme Court, Leeds says that after 28 years, Deborah Harry and the rest of the band are taking out more money before they pay him than they used to and won’t even show him how they’re calculating the new royalty scheme. Leeds is suing for breach of contract and interference with the 1979 contract.

Carlos Santana is certainly one of the all-time greatest guitarists. However, since his 1999 comeback album Supernatural, Santana has simply repeated the formula of taking a backseat to the day’s biggest pop stars. The new single “Into The Night” will only sound fresh to those who have spent the past 6 years in a cave. To even the most casual music fan, however, “Into the Night” plays just like any Nickelback song with some extra electric guitar. Although certainly catchy, “Into The Night” does not linger in the listener’s head as it’s steady beat and cookie cutter production help it come and go making little impact. This tale of instant love serves best as background music for a late-night party or an Adult Contemporary playlist. Fortunately for Santana and his fan base, “Into The Night” serves as a lead single for the hits package Ultimate Santana. The album combines hits from the musician’s recent albums, as well as classics from his band at its prime. So, while “Into the Night” alone provides little motivation for the purchase, the promise of the guitar master’s best work should be irresistible for any pop fan without Santana’s previous work in their collection.
