Those struggles suffuse Hourglass (Columbia), Taylor's 17th original album, which will be released next week. The CD boasts an array of guest collaborators, including cellist Ma, Stevie Wonder, Sting, Shawn Colvin and Branford Marsalis.

During recent rehearsals with his band in Los Angeles, there was a long silence in the room every time he finished playing...

Liberalization was dangerous; had not his grandfather, the cautious reformer Alexander II, been assassinated by populists? The Czarina enthusiastically egged on his autocratic posturing, and when her grandmother, Britain's Queen Victoria, wrote tactfully to suggest that a queen must work hard to win the love of her subjects...

He also says the church will find itself in a hypocritical bind if it chooses to enforce "chastity" and not the 17th century bans on divorce and working on the Sabbath. Anderson, however, is not abandoning his church: "I'm in this for the long haul," even if takes "another 20 or 30 years" to defeat the other side...
