Fascinatin' Vibrations

The George Gershwin Estate has entered into an agreement with Brian Wilson, genius of the Beach Boys, that will allow Wilson to finish some of the partially-written songs left by George when he died at age 38 in 1938.
The Gershwin Estate must be headed by baby-boomers who, typically, love the music of George and Ira and of Brian and his brothers and cousin. I look forward to hearing the final music, a blend of Manhattan verve and L.A. sun.

On another note, Barbra Streisand's new album, Love Is the Answer, is the top-selling album in the country right now. Just when you think beauty has left the building forever it stages a comeback. Diana Krall produced it and plays killer piano as well.
