| Tom Jones covers Arctic Monkeys Tom Jones covered Arctic Monkeys today (July 1) at the Concert For Diana. The Welsh crooner did a version of 'I Bet You Look Good On The Dancefloor' at London's Wembley Stadium. Before he performed the radically altered version of the track he said: "Now we're going to do something a little different. Something new." The commemorative gig saw Kanye West perform his new song the Daft Punk sampling 'Stronger' and promise the crowd he would: "rip this stage in half." His performance which saw him backed by an all female string section, a DJ and dancers all dressed in red, saw him race through a selection of songs including 'Jesus Walks', 'Gold Digger' and 'Touch The Sky'. Earlier Lily Allen performed her hits 'LDN' and 'Smile' in a distinctive blue dress against an animated background. Pharrell Williams also performed a selection of hits including the NERD track 'She Wants To Move' and the Snoop Dogg track 'Drop It Like It's Hot'. He told the audience: "Despite all the crazy things that have happened over the world I want the people to stand up for peace." |
Arctic Monkeys frontman to record surprise album this month Arctic Monkeys frontman Alex Turner and The Rascals' Miles Kane are set to record an album together later this month. The pair became friends when Kane's first band The Little Flames supported Arctic Monkeys on their early tour. Kane contributed guitar to Arctic Monkeys' second album 'Favourite Worst Nightmare' and has joined the Sheffield band live frequently this summer to play '505' with them, including at the weekend's Old Trafford gigs (July 28-29). Now the pair are set to head to France to record an album together in mid-August. "We're there for two weeks and we're going to try to get the majority of it done," Kane told NME.COM. "James Ford is producing it and is going to play drums, he's a really boss drummer. Me and Al will do all the bass and guitar and vocals, and try to the get the bulk of it done in two weeks. We're going to record it quite live to tape I think. Then whenever we've got weekends off at the same time we'd like to get some strings on it and probably do all that back home. That's the plan anyway." The singer added that the pair were still trying to work out what their project will be called. "We were thinking Turner & Kane but everyone says it doesn't sound too serious," he explained. Kane is currently recording The Rascals debut EP in London - due out in October - with Blur and Elbow producer Ben Hiller. He expects the pair's album to come out in the first half of 2008, after The Rascals have released their debut album. "We want to have a bit of everything on there," said Kane of his own band's forthcoming album. "Some of the tunes do the same job, if you know what I mean, so we'll only have a couple of them on. So when we do it we will have everything." |
Phil Spector will be retried for murder Phil Spector will be retried for murder, it was confirmed today. At a hearing in Los Angeles, Prosecutor Alan Jackson said that Spector will be retried by the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office, although a date has not been set for the trial. Meanwhile, Spector has sought a new legal team for the retrial, according to a member of his defence team. Christopher Plourd told the court that Spector is looking for a new lawyer, says the Associated Press. The new team will be the fouth to defend Spector in court. During his first trial, Spector went through three legal teams - he fired the first, while the second resigned. The trial ended in a mistrial last month after the jury deadlocked 10-to-2. The majority of the jury were in favour of a guilty verdict. During the retrial Spector will once again be tried for the murder of actress Lana Clarkson, who was shot dead in his Alhambra, CA mansion in February 2003. Stay tuned to NME.COM for daily updates from the courtroom when the trial begins. |
