So LaKisha went. Waiting to hear if it would be her or Blake, I felt like Randy looked. Did you catch it? He really DID NOT know who it was going to be, and I didn't either. Frankly, I didn't really care. I started out liking LaKisha because of her immense talent and her touching personal story. But it bugged me how lately she's been dismissing the advice of the show's mentors, people who have sold a lot more records than she has. I am sure she will go on to a great gospel singing career. And Blake will be back next week, doing the Blake thing I am clearly in the minority for disliking.

It's akin to an absurd musical joke: Who wears a white suit worthy of Barry Gibb, plays guitar like a cross between Eddie Van Halen and Joe Satriani, and produces vocal harmonies from the Def Leppard songbook? The answer is Gene the Werewolf, one of the area's most atypical bands, debuting the CD "Light Me Up" on Saturday at Diesel, South Side.
NEW YORK -- Barbra Streisand and Barry Gibb hadn't worked together in 25 years. But Gibb still knew the best way to express what Streisand was thinking -- especially when it came to the war in Iraq. The result was "Stranger in a Strange Land," written by Gibb for Streisand's new album, "Guilty Pleasures.

[Al Green] wrote or co-wrote all of the above songs, but he's plenty comfortable tackling the songs of others. Barry Gibb didn't write "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" for Green the way he'd penned "To Love Somebody" for Otis Redding, but Green took command of the song and transformed it into more than six minutes of Grade A drama. Green's covered his share of country songs, putting his lights-down-low stamp on Hank Williams' "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry," Kris Kristofferson's "For the Good Times" and Willie Nelson's "Funny How Time Slips Away." But my favorite of his covers is his first Hi single, a downright giddy take on "I Want to Hold Your Hand.

If former Bee Gee Barry Gibb was looking for some inspiration for the country album he plans to record here, he couldn't have picked a more hallowed piece of ground to put down stakes. Gibb bought and is restoring the lakefront house belonging to the late Johnny and June Carter Cash.
