she's quite the local girl having attended the same jr. high as me....darn... ALWAYS those teensy-weensy degrees of separation!  Mrs. Ringo Starr, the former Barbara Bach (and before she become a model/movie star, Barbara Goldbach), grew up in my hometown of Rosedale, Queens - she lived 4 blocks from me. See what I mean? Maybe YOU could've been the one to star in CAVEMAN with Ringo!! ;D  |

Tonight I was at the opera, which gave me plenty of time to daydream about Paul McCartney. (Don't worry, I didn't think about Paul for the entire 3 hours...I also dreamed about Ray and Nick  ). And it occurs to me that he's probably ordering up dates with all these Hollywood babes just in order to show up Heather. It's great PR for him -- but that doesn't mean he's actually interested in them. ;D |

 (photo Jim Rinaldi) McCartney Happily Evolving With New Label December 14, 2007 Back in March, when Paul McCartney became the first artist to sign with Hear Music, the label formed by Starbucks and the Concord Music Group, he said at the time, "For me the great thing is the commitment and the passion and the love of music, which as an artist is good to see. It’s a new world now and people are thinking of new ways to reach the people, and for me that’s always been my aim." It was a huge change for McCartney, who had spent 45 years with EMI. Now, in a new interview with U.K. newspaper The Times, he talks openly about how his former label had gotten stale and the importance of finding new and innovative ways of releasing music. "Everybody at EMI had become a part of the furniture. I’d be a couch; Coldplay are an armchair. And Robbie Williams, I dread to think what he was," McCartney told the Times. "But the most important thing was, I’d felt [the people at EMI] had become really very boring. And I dreaded going to see them... because I could guess what they were going to say: ‘Love your record, Paul.' And I’d say: ‘Well, what should we do with it?’ Then they’d go: ‘Well, we think you ought to go to Cologne,' which is what they always say. This idea became symbolic of the treadmill, you know? You go somewhere, speak to a million journalists for one day, and you get all the same questions. It’s mind-numbing. So I started saying: 'God, we’ve got to do something else.'" He found that "something else" with Starbucks' new music venture, and Macca added that he also admires the Radiohead tactic of releasing music online as soon as its complete, noting that it's actually reminiscent of the old guard. "This was how we used to operate. I remember John [Lennon], for instance, writing 'Instant Karma' and demanding it was released the following week," he said. Meanwhile, at age 65, McCartney is not doing much slowing down. In February he picks up an award for Outstanding Contribution to Music at the Brit Awards. He will then go into the studio to assist on an album by his son, James. Also nearing completion are a guitar concerto and a new album under his alter ego, The Fireman. And his latest album, Memory Almost Full, will be up for three Grammy Awards at the February ceremony. "I'm very pleased with these Grammy nominations for my latest album, Memory Almost Full," he said in a statement. "I had a lot of fun making it with [producer] David Kahne and my band and am very pleased with how successful it has been, particularly because of the way we got it out to people in a new and interesting way." from FMQB.com |
