NEW YORK (AP) – Fleetwood Mac is about to tour. But does that mean they will be on the road to support a new album? Not exactly is the best answer. Members of the group have been working on new music – with Stevie Nicks singing on tracks that Lindsey Buckingham, Mick Fleetwood and John McVie had worked on. But Nicks says she isn’t sure what is to become of the music. She says the way things are in the music world these days, doing an album would be tough. But she says the group might release a couple of tracks here and there before deciding to share more songs. The Fleetwood Mac tour is set to start April 4 in Columbus, Ohio.

NEW YORK (AP) – Jon Bon Jovi knows about rock and roll. But he acknowledges that it comes to raising a kid – no one has all the answers. Last month, his 19-year-old daughter Stephanie was found unresponsive in her college dorm room. It was an apparent heroin overdose. Bon Jovi says he appreciates “that outpouring of kindness” from people after that – but that he was “shocked as much as the next parent” at what happened. He notes when he brought his daughter home as an infant “there was no manual” – but he tried to “surround her with hugs and kisses.” Bon Jovi says he hopes there will be no more problems – but adds “no one knows the future. It is what it is.”

LONDON (AP) – George Harrison’s leather jacket from his Cavern Club days is up for auction. Bonhams auction house expects it to sell for at least $140,000. His “Beatle boots” are expected to sell for at least $19,000. Bonhams estimates the guitar Paul McCartney played as a member of the pre-Beatles group The Quarry Men will sell for at least $32,000. Plaster casts of Harrison’s hands are for sale, as are four prop umbrellas from the movie “Help,” the trumpet used on the song “Martha My Dear” and an Apple Records dartboard. The auction is December 12.

UNDATED (AP) – It’s still memorable enough to get people to the dance floor – and has spawned any number of imitations. But many music fans might forget that the title track to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” wasn’t the first single released from the album, which was released 30 years ago today. In fact, it was the final single from the project. The first was “The Girl Is Mine,” a duet Jackson did with Paul McCartney. It wasn’t as well received as later hits like “Billie Jean,” “Human Nature,” “Beat It” and “Wanna Be Starting Something.” Quincy Jones produced “Thriller” and says he gave Jackson a nickname while they worked on the project: “smelly.” The story went that it was because Jackson would go for several straight days in the studio without bathing. But Jones says he gave Jackson the nickname because the singer would use “smelly” as a substitute for funky – because he thought funky sounded too much like profanity.
