Lucy of 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' fame dies

Lucy Vodden, who provided the inspiration for the Beatles' classic song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds," has died after a long battle with lupus. She was 46. Her death was announced Monday by St. Thomas' Hospital in London, where she had been treated for the chronic disease for more than five years, and by her husband, Ross Vodden. Britain's Press Association said she died last Tuesday. Hospital officials said they could not confirm the day of her death. Vodden's connection to the Beatles dates back to her early days, when she made friends with schoolmate Julian Lennon, John Lennon's son. Julian Lennon, then 4 years old, came home from school with a drawing one day, showed it to his father, and said it was "Lucy in the sky with diamonds."

You Really Got Me, Bobby Graham: In Memory

"Forty-five years ago in September 1964, the Kinks 'You Really Got Me' stormed to the top of British charts and would soon accomplish the same on Billboard's American rankings. The raucous guitar and explosive drums declared a new era of pop and an aggressive voice for rock. Indeed, in that juxtaposition of angry instruments and whining voice can be heard the beginnings of punk. With this recording and many others, Bobby Graham offers the example of a musician many have heard, but too few have heard of"

Rolling Stones deny Watts's departure

Rolling Stones deny Watts's departure"The Rolling Stones issued a terse statement Wednesday denying an online report that drummer Charlie Watts had quit the band. "Contrary to a fabricated story that ran this morning on a small music website in Australia, drummer Charlie Watts has not left the Rolling Stones," the band said in a statement. Australian music and entertainment website undercover.au.com stirred a worldwide panic online early Wednesday with its report that Watts was leaving the band and would likely be replaced by Charlie Drayton, the drummer who has played with Stones bandmate Keith Richards in his side project, the Expensive Winos. The report, which quickly spread via music websites and microblogging service Twitter, quoted an unnamed source in the band's inner circle and said that Watts "will never record or tour with the band again." Watts, 68, joined the Rolling Stones in 1963, the year after the band was first established by Brian Jones, Ian Stewart, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. Watts, renowned for his jazz drumming style, has also pursued solo music projects, including releasing the 2004 album Watts at Scott's. That same year, Watts was also diagnosed with and underwent treatment for throat cancer, which is now in remission. The Rolling Stones released their latest album, A Bigger Bang, in 2005 and completed their most recent world tour in 2007." - Reuters

The Beatles Stereo Box Set - September 9, 2009

You still can't buy "Can't Buy Me Love" from iTunes. But the Beatles' music is taking a step toward catching up with technology. After four years of audio engineers working from Abbey Road Studios in London with the original Beatles recording tapes, on September 9, Apple Corps Ltd. and EMI Music are debuting the digitally remastered Beatles' studio-produced albums. All told, 29 CDs, in one of two box sets will go on sale. They "have the integrity of the original master tape, they're just phonically superior" to previously released recordings, says Kevin Howlett, a radio producer who consulted on the project. Diehard Beatles fans have been complaining about the lackluster quality of Beatles CDs since they were released 22 years ago, with one reviewer calling the audio "tinny and desperately malnourished."

Chris Connor dies

Chris Connor, the great jazz singer whose lush, foggy voice and compressed emotional intensity distilled a 1950s jazz reverie of faraway longing in a sad cafe, died Saturday in Toms River, N.J. She was 81 and lived in Toms River. The cause was cancer, her publicist, Alan Eichler, said. A singer who used little vibrato and was admired for her inventive rhythmic alterations of ballads, she belonged to the cool school of jazz singers that included Anita O'Day, June Christy, Chet Baker and Julie London - SFGate
