Gone But Not Forgotten: Music Stars We Lost in 2011

GLADYS HORTON, Jan. 26
As lead singer of The Marvelettes, Horton helped give Motown its first Hot 100 No. 1 with 1961's "Please Mr. Postman" and later sang on gems such as "Playboy" and "Beechwood 4-5789." She died at a California nursing home at 65.

ABBA's Andersson Ready For Hall Of Fame

Rock 'n' roll may not be the term most commonly associated with ABBA's music, but the group's Benny Andersson thinks it's appropriate for the Swedish group, which broke up in 1983, to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame next week.
