UPCOMING RELEASE FROM MARY HOPKIN: Mary Hopkin posted on her blog Thursday that she is about to release a new album with her son Morgan on Oct. 25. Because of the new album and the fact her old tracks will now be on iTunes, she's now making her previous albums, "Valentine," "Recollections" and "Now and Then," only available separately and no longer in a set, she's withdrawing the Christmas EP and making it for download, and that her Spirit album is planned for re-release next year.
