Burton QUITS!

Steve Burton has quit General Hospital!  YAY!  I don't mind him as an actor, but can't stand Jason!  You won't see me shedding any tears!  No word yet on a final airdate.

Info...

What do you think of the Release Me cover art?  I think it's simple, beautiful, and a great improvement over the last album.  Don't know if I said this before, but I'm extremely disappointed that there are only 11 tracks.  I'm sure they'll be wonderful, but after hearing about this project for as long as we have, I was expecting more.  Anyway, the official track listing is:

  1. Being Good Isn’t Good Enough (From Hallelujah, Baby!)
  2. Didn’t We
  3. Willow Weep For Me
  4. Try To Win A Friend
  5. I Think It’s Going To Rain Today
  6. With One More Look At You (From A Star Is Born)
  7. Lost In Wonderland
  8. How Are Things In Glocca Morra?/Heather On The Hill (From Finian's Rainbow/Brigadoon)
  9. Mother And Child
  10. If It’s Meant To Be
  11. Home (From The Wiz)
Some surprises are also being promised.  My guess?  Bonus tracks depending on where the album is purchased.  Honestly, that trick has seen its best day for me.  Just one and done.

News!

Couple of big news items!  First, the highly anticipated album of unreleased material, with a ridiculously unimaginative title, Release Me will hit stores on September 25th.  No word yet, but I'm hoping it'll be a box set.  Lord knows, there's probably enough for five or six CDs!

Barbra will kick off a small concert tour on October 8th in Philadelphia.  Dates and details are as follows:

Oct. 08: Philadelphia, PA (Wells Fargo Center)
Oct. 11: Brooklyn, NY (Barclays Center)
Oct. 13: Brooklyn, NY (Barclays Center)
Oct. 17: Montreal, QC (Bell Centre)
Oct. 20: Ottawa, ON (Scotiabank Place)
Oct. 23: Toronto, ON (Air Canada Centre)
Oct. 26: Chicago, IL (United Center)
Oct. 29: Vancouver, BC (Rogers Arena)

One of the Brooklyn shows is expected to be recorded for future CD/DVD/Blu-ray release.
