(Classic Rock) Lita Ford has a song on her new album written to her kids but her former bandmate husband won't let them hear it. Living Like a Runaway is her first record since splitting with Jim Gillette, a prominent force in her comeback release Wicked Wonderland.She later said that album was too much about Gillette and not enough about her – and now they've split up, her latest work is closer to the music she wants to create. But one track, called Mother, is a personal message to her two sons with Gillette – and Ford is worried they'll never be allowed to hear it.
She tells Decibel: "My kids are with their dad. He brainwashed them and took them from me, telling them, 'Oh, you don't want to go with Mommy. Mommy's bad.' He put the entire weight of the divorce on my kids, which is the worst thing any parent could do to their child." A lot more here.
