Here's news from Wing!
http://www.wingtunes.com/news/news.aspx

>> Wing sounds very tired. I ring her in the evening and find it has been a long day. A new credit card facility on her web site to quicken the processing of CDs has ironically brought about even more work than before. Wing has no computer. She says it is so much to and fro to the computer shop, every day, no time to learn new songs, no time to improve. I ask her how things are going. "I very tired" she says. <<

Frank,
Do you also own Aretha Franklin's and Ray Charles' versions of Eleanor Rigby?

Not yet, but I do have Shatner's "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds". It's a classic!

I like Aretha's version. She sings it in first person as Eleanor.

Kate Bush also covered "Rocket Man", and "Candle in the Wind".

About a month ago, I borrowed Beatles 1 from a friend. Some really catchy tunes on that one.

You should hear some of their NON-hit stuff. It's pretty catchy, too.

I doubt those 2 could ever sing like Wing.
