Before Heart decided to release album after album of hair-band pop in the 80’s to support Ann Wilson’s growing waistline, the group blessed us with some great kickass rock albums to close out the 70’s. Now the sisters Wilson have not only announced working on a new album, they've announced a children's book based on their 1978 album Dog & Butterfly.

Often times I wonder why bands do this non-music crap. Heart has released one album in the past 15 years, which nobody bought, and now they're going to not only put out another album nobody wants, they're going to throw in a children's book no one will buy.

And you're gonna read your child a book written by THIS woman?

Then we have the subject matter. Dog & Butterfly was half rock (Dog) and half sissy music (Butterfly). Dogs do not strike me as rock 'n roll. Quick, name the coolest dog movie ever besides Benji! Exactly, you either came up with Air Bud, which sucked, or any movie that's cool but the dog dies. None of these dogs die like rock stars, either, they die noble deaths without the help of cocaine or sleeping pills or flying a plane two inches above houses. Butterflies are perfect for kids, like girls and boys who are more feminine than girls. But why expose them to the rock 'n roll lifestyle girls assume so easily as groupies and scary goth hookers?

Heart, go back on tour or write me another "Barracuda" or go eat another donut.
