By Bob Berry<\/p>\n

Darlene Love, member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame<\/strong><\/a>. Legend.<\/p>\n

Lead singer on “He’s A Rebel<\/strong><\/a>” the song that defines Phil Spector’s “Wall of Sound”. Lead singer on the greatest Christmas record of all-time, “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)”; whose show-stopping annual appearances on Letterman every year<\/strong><\/a>, proved it still<\/em> is. \u00a0 As a member of The Blossoms, sang back-up for everyone<\/strong> <\/a>from Sam Cooke, Shelly Fabares and Johnny Rivers to Frank Sinatra and The Righteous Brothers.<\/p>\n

Turns out Darlene Love was an idol of a “Miami” Steve Van Zandt, who about 30 years ago promised Darlene they would make an album<\/strong><\/a> together. And then stuff happened.<\/p>\n

Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band on tour. Playing Silvio Dante<\/strong><\/a> in The Sopranos. “Lilyhammer”. Radio Shows<\/strong><\/a>. Reuniting The Rascals and producing their Broadway show “Once Upon A Dream<\/strong><\/a>“.<\/p>\n

Well, “stuff’ finally got cleared out. Friends like Bruce, Jimmy Webb and Linda Perry wrote songs<\/strong><\/a>, musicians came together, and Darlene’s new album, “Introducing Darlene Love<\/strong><\/a>” goes on sale September 18. And with the help of friends like Bill Murray, Paul Schaffer, Joan Jett, Bruce, Steve and a cast of thousands, the first video,\u00a0 “Forbidden Nights”, was released this week.<\/p>\n

“Love” It.<\/p>\n
