Rome, Italy -- An Italian record company that is releasing an album by Great White is rocking its way towards tastelessness: the disc is titled "Burning House Of Love." Great White is, of course, known for the pyrotechnic stage show that caused a fire that killed nearly 100 people at a Rhode Island gig.

NEW YORK -- Lenny Kravitz' next album may be as much "Rock of Ages" as rock 'n' roll: Kravitz will release his new CD, "Baptism," on May 18 and the tracks include "Baptized," "Calling All Angels" and "Minister Of Rock 'N Roll." Not surprisingly, Kravitz says it "marks a musical and spiritual rebirth."

ACTON, Calif. -- They say it never rains in Southern California, but it will snow this weekend at Tippi Hedren's So-Cal animal preserve, Shambala. A benefactor is paying for 1000 pounds of the white stuff to be shipped in to the compound of a snow leopard named D'Brug, who has been living at Shambala since 1996 and has never seen snow.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Florence Henderson has a new gig in a Florida-based stage show that appeals to the Polident-generation. Henderson plays a whip-cracking dominatrix that parodies her role as homemaker Carol Brady in "The Brady Bunch" for "Florida Follies." Kinksters say she wears a black vinyl dress for the show that's so tight she'd need Wesson oil to slip into it.
