Someone recently commented on the new song out by Kenny Rogers and Shena Easton.
The song is called "Why Don't You Stay", it's a remake of a record put out by
Bob Seger a few years back.  I agree it's probably the best thing Roger's has
put out in quite a long time.  Much of this is probably do to Easton.  This is
the first thing she has done that I have liked.  I have always thought she had
a great voice but I never cared for any of her material.

Getting back to Rogers, most of his work since his big comeback six years ago
has been pretty bland.  But I disagree that he has always been this way.  Some
of his work with the First Edition is actually very good.  It's unfortunate
that you really don't hear much of it these days.  Of course I'm an old First
Edition fan.
