* Jim Capaldi, founder member of psychedelic rock group Traffic, has died, it was announced earlier today. The award-winning songwriter and performer had been suffering from cancer of the stomach. He was 60. Traffic was extremely popular in my household growing up. I probably still have some of their vinyl at my Mother's house. Link
* New details have emerged about Robert Plant's upcoming solo album. The 12-track CD will be titled Mighty Rearranger, not Another Tribe as originally reported, and will be released in the United Kingdom on April 25. The disc's first single, "Shine It All Around," will be available a week earlier in the U.K. No word yet on when the album -- which Plant recorded with his backing band, the Strange Sensation -- will come out in the United States. Billboard.com* Ashley Judd is blogging her trip to Africa as YouthAIDS Global Ambassador. She brought much needed mosquito nets, medicine, and more. She talks about her visit to the slums and the brothels and the effect it had on her emotionally.
Have envelope; Will push.
