McCartney Disputes Rigby Document
Paul McCartney has made a statement denouncing Sunbeams Music Trust who claimed they received a document from the singer proving the identity of Eleanor Rigby.
McCartney told Agence France-Presse, "Eleanor Rigby is a totally fictious character that I made up. If someone wants to spend money buying a document to prove a fictitious character exists, that's fine with me."
McCartney also told Absolute Radio that he wouldn't mind doing a collaboration with either Bob Dylan or David Byrne.

Stanley Talks Kiss Album
Paul Stanley has told Britain's Classic Rock magazine that KISS is open to the idea of recording a new album. When asked about a new record now, Stanley said, "Well, I thought that I'd be content for Kiss to remain a heritage act, just playing our greatest hits, Detroit Rock City and all that. But the new Kiss line-up with Tommy Thayer (guitar) and Eric Singer (drums) is proving to be so good, so strong in spirit, it would interesting to see how we perform in the studio."

Glitter Band Reunion
The Glitter Band, former backup for Gary Glitter, say they are working up a comeback album. The band did have success after Glitter, but now want to do more to distance themselves from their former leader. John Rossall says that they are looking to do something "heavy, really tribal, really do something with our sound."
There's no love lost between Rossall and Glitter. "Glitter was difficult to work with even when we first met him in 1964/65 when we were his backing band in the Starr Club in Germany. Even then he insisted on staying in a hotel whilst we had to share digs in bunk beds behind the stage. He was always a prima donna really."
