A four or five octave voice who was pulled around all over London or England to perform,
no matter how much fun it was, that you have to come to terms with, that you have to satisfy
and quiet down.
Of course there is.
There's a little girl in all of us and one spends one's entire life trying to be adult.
And I think, I pray that I'm just beginning to feel where I ought to be.
I mean all my life I always sort of felt the youngest in class or slightly behind or not
quite with it.
I'm just beginning to feel like I'm getting to be adult.
Jazz on!
Well here are three new albums that you may be applauding yourself next week.
Billy Squire's Enough Is Enough, Rats, Dance and Undercover, and Chicago 18.
That's the first album without lead singer Peter Cetera.
It includes a remake of their early hit 25 or 6 to 4.
John Fogerty's vocals, unmistakable guitar riffs and rockabilly flavored songs made Creighton's
Clearwater Revival one of the dominant groups of the late 60s.
The group broke up in the early 70s and due to a lengthy contractual battle with his former
record label, Fogerty was all but out of the rock and roll business.
Then came a new album last year and this year for the first time in a long time, a tour.
Elaine Gannick has more.
The single most important event to starting on the road back was finally obtaining my
release from Fantasy Records which cost me both legs and both arms but I've got my future
now so you know they've got Rollin' on the River and I've got Eye of the Zombie.
After 14 years away from the public, John Fogerty is out on the road promoting his new
album Eye of the Zombie and enjoying life in the thick of things.
It feels great.
It's wonderful.
This is the part that makes it real finally.
Meeting people, seeing people, performing for people.
That's when it's all going to become a reality again like the old days.
Fogerty had been at the top of his field with Creedence Clearwater Revival releasing a
string of hits and filling concert halls and then in 1972 he vanished from the music scene.
It wasn't my decision.
There was nothing else I could do.
It wasn't my decision.
It's not something I really like to get into.
It was an enforced retirement and it wasn't really very nice or fair.
I would even say it was kind of cruel but that part's over with and I'm flying now.
Flying Indeed, his number one album Center Field spawned three hit singles last year
but the previously silent decade was more than enough time to foster rumor and speculation
about his life.
You've developed an image of a very eccentric recluse.
Is that accurate?
I picture some guy with a real crooked cane out in his overgrown front yard beating the
neighborhood dogs with his stick.
Cranky and all that.
I don't know.
I took my kids to McDonald's.
I watched Saturday Night Live, went to ball games.
I don't think I was a recluse.
I just wasn't in showbiz.
There's a little bit more to life than showbiz.
I'm an adult in the 20th century and living in the 20th century is very complicated and
I'm a musical person but I'm also, you know, I have a brain.
Since I'm not into chemicals and all the rest of it I sort of read the paper and think
a little.
I've got children.
My art, if you will, reflects my life so this is the way I integrate the two.
I'm a recluse.
John Fogerty and band will resume touring next month but there's plenty of live music
to keep the nights dancing this week.
Wednesday Lou Reed rocks New York City's Radio City Music Hall.
Thursday Patty Page plays DeVos Hall in Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Friday Sheila E. plays the first of two nights at St. Paul Civic Center in Minnesota.
Saturday Dwight Yocham is at Miller Theater in Houston.
And on Sunday James Taylor plays the Concord Pavilion in Northern California.
When you care about people nothing's too good which is why I've been making homemade soup
for years.
But I've discovered a delicious soup from Canada called home cooking, homemade style
broth with tender chicken, celery and carrots and noodles.
It's the closest thing to my own which is important because if you love someone a little
thing like soup isn't a little thing.
Morris discovers Nine Lives Tender Meals.
Morris wake up, something exciting for Din Din.
I must be dreaming.
It's a tasty soft moist cat food.
Soft moist, now she's dreaming.
It's Nine Lives.
Nine Lives.
Well my cat nap can wait.
Mmm, Nine Lives Tender Meals.
Morris' favorite flavors like salmon, shrimp and cheese made tender and easy.
At last a soft moist good enough for Morris.
Nine Lives Tender Meals, you're a dream come true.
The tension of dealing with city traffic can cause quite a headache.
Ask Linda Ferguson.
A painful headache that's in the shoulders and the neck.
I need something strong.
What she took was extra strength Tylenol caplets.
Last year hospitals dispensed Tylenol ten times more than the next four brands combined.
Let's see how Tylenol worked.
I feel great.
I don't know where the headache is.
It's not here.
I feel very, very good.
If Tylenol worked for Linda Ferguson and it's the pain reliever hospitals use most, shouldn't
you use Tylenol too?
There's no single cheese like Velveeta.
Cause Velveeta is more than one single cheese.
Like cold biscuits and cheddar.
We blend it all together.
For a creamy taste that melts with ease.
Velveeta.
Processed cheese spread tastes so fine.
Lots of natural cheeses do the trick every time.
It's like a pound of a slice of Velveeta.
Here are some of the stories that made entertainment headlines last week.
A spokesman for Burt Reynolds denied rumors the actor has AIDS and is in a Washington
hospital.
He said of the rumors quote, someone is spreading it at a high level.
I'm told the calls are anonymous, which should tell you something about their reliability.
End quote.
Elizabeth Taylor is hospitalized in Los Angeles because of pain and infection following a
tooth extraction.
54 year old actress is expected to be released early next week.
And it wouldn't be Hollywood without stars jumping on the political bandwagon.
Friday, a big group turned out to help campaign for a ballot measure to clean up California's
water.
Lisa was there.
The stars gathered very early this morning here at MGM studios, prepared to give up their
weekends, board these buses and travel throughout California.
What is the message?
The message is vote yes on 65.
Prop 65 will double the existing penalties for dumping proven cancer causing and birth
defect causing chemicals in the drinking water.
People are scared and that's why we're all doing this.
When you get this many celebrities together on a bus, what can you expect?
A lot of fighting for the good seats.
Chaos.
But chaos and all, the three day celebrity trek was underway.
The long term effects are very clear cut and simple.
You either protect yourself or you die.
It's that simple.
There were lots of other stories in the show business world last week and here's our quick
day by day review.
Monday ET covers the 38th annual Emmy awards before.
I'm so thrilled to be here and very excited just to be nominated.
There's plenty.
I keep telling myself that but I really want to win.
But I know I want to.
During.
I don't believe this.
This is great.
I feel four feet tall.
And after.
I mean how could I beat Katherine Hepburn?
When I said this is my dream, this is always part of my dream to be acknowledged.
I like prizes.
A great ego massager.
And if you push a potato real hard through here you can make french fries.
Tuesday, ET is on hand as Elizabeth Taylor is honored for her fight against AIDS.
I have committed my life with my life to fight for AIDS, the cure for AIDS for the rest of
my life until the cure is found.
And Madonna's song Papa Don't Preach finds itself in a controversy.
I think what it does is it encourages sexual activity among teenagers at earlier ages and
I think it encourages and encourages teenagers who do get pregnant to seriously consider
carrying those pregnancies to term.
I don't think that it's very important about Madonna's past and her reputation.
I think the point is that she has chosen to sing a song with a positive message and we're
pleased for the fact that she chose to do it.
Wednesday, ET takes in the Hollywood bash celebrating dynasty's 150th episode.
We brought a glamour back into people's lives and we've tried to inform and instruct with
issues on homosexuality, mental illness, dealing with issues of power and money and greed,
lust and love.
And now I think I've got back to my just normal nasty bitchy charming self.
Thursday, ET covers ABC's new news magazine, debuting up against the number one Cosby show.
And sort of the underdogs and I think it was Wilt Chamberlain once who said, nobody loves
Goliath.
And Irma Bombeck, one of only three original members of the Good Morning America cast,
made her final appearance.
I think this is what we would call a rap.
Thank you John.
This is a rap which means we pack it up and we go home.
Friday, ET talks to opera star Renata Scato in New York about wearing two hats at the
Met singing and directing Madame Butterfly.
The legendary temperament of the diva and the legendary temperament of the director.
Sing as you're both.
You won't have any fights with yourself.
I have a conflict with myself.
Of course I have.
A lot of.
And that's our quick review of last week's entertainment news of note in pictures.

Next week on Entertainment Tonight.
The thing is, lots of financial institutions will tell you how big and how safe they are.
We think our customers deserve a lot more than just a safe place to put their money.
One thing they deserve, for example, is having higher interest rates on higher balances.
At California Federal, we came up with an account that does just that.
And it's called tiered savings, keeping our customers money safe and giving them a good
return on their dollar.
That's what Cal Fed means when it talks about well managed money.
What is folklore?
What is song?
Celebration?

According to official voting records of the U.S. Senate, Alan Cranston believes that if
a terrorist kills an American citizen in a hijacking, if someone commits murder, treason,
or kidnapping, if innocent victims die in a bombing, the killer should not get the death
penalty.
Alan Cranston consistently opposes the death penalty for the most vicious crimes.
Maybe that's why he doesn't oppose Rose Bird.
The feel of silk against the skin.
The scent of night-blooming flowers.
The sound of the wind.
From the orient, we have learned to indulge the senses.
The menu introduces laureates.
Elegant dishes like delicate lemon chicken or succulent beef with broccoli and richly
spiced lo mein.
All with tea and chops in the middle.
Laureate, new from the menu.
You want the very latest, the inside stuff?
Well you can depend on us to get right down to the old nitty-gritty.
At last week's Emmy Awards, our Paula McClure got the long end shorts of it from John Ritter.
Now here's the scoop of the week.
I'm wearing absolutely no underwear.
I thought you might like to hear about that.
You probably wouldn't care about that.
Would you care about that?
Oh my love.
Great reporting Paula.
Why do we get personal stuff on this show?
I mean to tell you.
Mary Hart will be here with John Tesh on Monday for Entertainment Tonight.
We hope you'll join them for a career update on Tom Selleck.
A candid interview with Kitty Kelly about her controversial Frank Sinatra book.
And believe it or not, Dallas becomes a college course.
Oh get out of here.
No kidding.
I'm not here.
Next weekend on Entertainment This Week, Joe Namath the family man, bite my tongue, the
movie's very hot Kathleen Turner and we'll be bringing all this and more to you from
Florida's Walt Disney World as America's biggest theme park celebrates its 15th birthday.
We'll see you then.
Well not quite yet.
Speaking of birthdays, it's Rob's birthday this weekend.
We're not supposed to say this kind of stuff but Rob got.
It's a personal message.
I have a present that someone on the staff gave Rob.
It is the weirdest.
Look at this.
How do you work this thing Rob?
Just kind of pull it.
Oh that must be it.
Pull a little thing there.
I guess he'll recover by next week.
We'll see you then.
Just make sure you're sitting.
Kind of like this.
