  1. The word on 'Grease' and Taylor Hicks

    Long after the '50s are gone for good, we'll probably still have "Grease," that decades-old musical all about hopeless devotions, beauty school dropouts and hot summer nights. Bad-boy Danny has a summer fling with good-girl Sandy, who shows up at his SoCal high school in the fall.

  2. Gabriel Macht is willing for 'Spirit' stardom

    Once upon a time, superhero roles were considered career-killers. But not anymore, not with Christian Bale, Will Smith, Robert Downey Jr. and Hugh Jackman proving that if the glove fits, you should wear it. Still, for Gabriel Macht, who suits up as the latest masked man in " The Spirit," which opens Christmas Day, there are new and different risks in this modern era of cinematic crime fighting.

  6. Jackie Greene, a pop-music star in waiting

    THERE'S A SONG on Jackie Greene's new album, &quot;Giving Up the Ghost," that sounds like an outright dismissal of the first commandment of rock 'n' roll -- that music can change the world. In "I Don't Live in a Dream," the Bay Area singer and songwriter, considered by some an heir to the Gram Parsons roots-rock maverick tradition, confesses, "I don't live on the moon . . . I don't live in some land forgotten . . . I don't pretend to make the world feel better . . . I walk the same Earth you do, I live right here with you."

  7. Tom Petty returns to his roots with Mudcrutch

    THE misadventure began, as so many do, in a dingy Florida strip club. This one was called Dub's, and it was cinder-block roadhouse in Gainesville where, in the early 1970s, a dancer named Bubbles shimmied for students, townies and truck drivers while a band with the unfortunate name of Mudcrutch played muscular music that melded old-man country with new-kid rock. It was a Southern solution to the British Invasion.

  9. 'Sin City' The Flying Burrito Brothers | 1969

    <i>&quot;This old town's filled with sin, it'll swallow you in&#133;." </I>Chris Hillman woke up with the words in his head one morning in early 1969 and, as he made his way to the kitchen of his rented house just off Ventura Boulevard, a few more lines came to him: "If you got some money to burn, take it home right away."

  12. Keeping the jukes jumping

    Don MULLER stands in his living room, grinning like a caffeinated teenager, clearly dazzled by the magic he has wrought. The playroom in his Van Nuys ranch home features four classic jukeboxes crowded around a small dance floor, and lightbulbs are flashing like an arcade around the room and across the ceiling.
