Things have gotten so bad in the recording industry some artists now publicly apologize for releasing cd's that suck.<BR/><BR/> In most cases its usually the exec's that demanded a release even though the artist was not happy with the recordings.<BR/><BR/> A Canadian example of this is Colin James. He pleaded with his record company to put out some blues and swing music and was told it would never sell. HE ended putting out a sub-level cd to fulfill his contractual obligations before switching labels and since his career has blossomed more than before, as well as cd sales..paulsstuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01813949388254801232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-59460216370463072592007-04-27T12:21:00.000-04:002007-04-27T12:21:00.000-04:00Well put Jeff.You would think even Conservatives w...Well put Jeff.<BR/><BR/>You would think even Conservatives would get that simple fact - when techology changes and makes your business model out of date, you might want to consider changing your business model rather than running to the government fro protection.<BR/><BR/>I mean we transitioned from albumns to 8-tracks to tapes to cd to dvd without too much hassle.<BR/><BR/>If the recording industry were buggy whip makers 100 years ago, they would be pleading with the Laurier government to put a levy on those damn horseless carriages in order to protect their business.<BR/><BR/>Crazy.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06941875334878452635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-36841886677295016682007-04-27T11:08:00.000-04:002007-04-27T11:08:00.000-04:00Hear hear.Turn up the good, turn down the suck!Hear hear.<BR/><BR/>Turn up the good, turn down the suck!Jim (Progressive Right)https://www.blogger.com/profile/02023879211848227007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19402125.post-86526366611151502672007-04-27T10:52:00.000-04:002007-04-27T10:52:00.000-04:00"Swim faster."
