Wow ... Just Like Leonard Nimoy

Orrin and BarrySpeaking of Orrin Hatch, did you realize he's a musician as well? Go to The Music of Senator Hatch and see for yourself. Here's a snippet from the site:

Soon after his debut with Janice [Kapp], singer, songwriter Billy Hinsche of the Beach Boys' approached Orrin about writing with him. Following their sixth song, Marilyn Bergman of ASCAP (a performance rights royalty organization) contacted Orrin to inform him that his songs had "great potential" and that she was passing them on to Donna Hilley, head of Sony/ATV Tree in Nashville. She felt Donna was in a better position to advise Orrin about the future of his songs.

Donna called Orrin and explained, "On any given day in Nashville we receive 200 good songs. What we are interested in is great songs." Orrin was sure this was her way of letting him down; however, she responded, "We think two of the songs are great songs and that they'll be around for 100 years or more. We would like to demo them for you. Would you be interested in coming down to see how we do it?"
