This story as with quite a few stories you have been putting out Simon. Reminds me of Musical chairs . One must never forget.. the music business , like show business is a business and the marriage of art and commerce will never be an easy fit. I am loving your Written exploits. I am an actor first and foremost but since l started acting successfully tv/film/theatre , l have had the ability to create songs. I am addicted to it.. l have been a emi writer and had a recording contract with EMI recorderd quite a few times at Abbey Road , as well as independents to releasing my own music online. 2 albums and an ep.with new songs to come.. However, making money from it , has not been so forth coming. Maybe , if l had you as my manager, things would have been very different.
Simon - every story you write has immense value. You really teach us about the world of recorded music and enliven it through your humanisation of the lesson. Great analysis! Thank you!
