| Take a visit to the official Lana Wood website. During her acting career, Lana appeared in over 300 television shows and made an indelible impression on fans as Plenty O'Toole in the James Bond flick, Diamonds Are Forever.
Following her departure from acting in the 1980s, she worked for many years as a casting director, but nowadays devotes most of her time to caring for her daughter (who has Hodgkin's Lymphoma) and her grandchildren.

| Linda Hoffman, President of the Bobby Rydell fan club, comments on the extraordinary Capitol Records' release - the entire 25-track collection of Bobby's recordings on their label: |
 |
"These 25 tracks date from the mid-'60s, have been out of print for over three decades and are as close as you're gonna get to the Cameo material unless something major happens," reports Collector's Choice, one of the outlets through which the CD is available.
"And this is fine work in its own right, featuring two chart hits (I Just Can't Say Goodbye and Diana), his complete album Somebody Loves You, 12 non-LP singles and two unreleased tracks. Bobby and his ex-manager Frankie Day contribute quotes and photos to the notes, too!"

| The Complete Bobby Rydell on Capitol is available from the Bobby Rydell Fan Club, or from Collector's Choice. |
