  1. Graham Nash has now joined NY & Joni Mitchell and removed his music from Spotify. It’s all Laurel Canyon artists so far
  2. John Coltrane - Giant Steps. Available in most decent record shops brand new for a tenner
  3. Here's a little teaser. Which album that I think both you and I have a copy of is currently priced in HMV at the following prices? £21.99, £44.99 and £54.99 (unshockingly only the most expensive one is in stock) I bought my copy in HMV as it happens for £9.99. See ya suckers! (yep as usual they mispriced it and I took full advantage)
  4. I'm that sad that I looked it up, it's £20.99 and in the 2 for £40 deal but... It's sold out
  5. Depends on the manufacturer. Different manufacturers have different settings and allow access to different settings.
  6. This many times, I was about to post similar. In this age, you repeat or deny a lie and it becomes more thruthful in many peoples minds. Leave it, drop it, ignore it. The Saville lie isn't worth pursuing at this stage General Krulak's wise words spring to mind here.
  7. Thats actually expensive You should be able to by a decent vinyl or CD copy for around £4 plus postage (which will be still less than £10) on Discogs and I'll wager that a lot of second hand dealers with physical stores will have a copy of it to avoid the postage. It's not even an original album it's a compilation. iirc it's still the most succesful album any incarnation of Tojan Records has ever sold (by a huge margin) It's sold that many copies I'd wager a charity shop or two may even have copies
  8. Just as an example, this article on Bowie's royalties being sold in The Guardian touches on what I'm talking about
  9. Well simply, it's an advance on future royalties But it isn't just collection, the publisher will be looking to actively licence those works to movies / games / compilations etc
  10. They aren't "selling" their catalogue. They are assigning them to a publisher, whose job it is to licence the music to other products. The $200mil NY recieved for the rights to his back catalogue is effectively an advance on the royalties that will be recouped over the length of the contract. Once the advance has been recouped from the artists percentage of the royalties, the money will then get split between the publisher and the artist by whatever split is agreed in the contract. Now in NY's case, that will likely be when he's dead and it will be his estate that benefits There can be all kinds of artistic control built in to a publishing contract The term selling is absolutely wrong, it's a media term and it's nonsense. A musicians publishing company is a recover of royalties, the money in the sale is an advance on those royalties
  11. You've just eliminated 99.999999% of musicians. Publishing companies are the lifeblood of succesful musicians not record companies. It is the publisher that sells the rights to your product not the record company. And that is where the real money is and always has been Musicians aren't going to phone up Hollywood Studios, Games Developers etc and and icence their songs to a product, that just isn't the way it works. Your statement shows a complete lack of understanding of how the industry works.
  12. There's no easy way to say this. It isn't. It's an antiparasitic drug. It has never been classed as an antiviral drug. It is not used to treat viruses in animals or humans This is what happens when you listen to podcasts, you get misinformed
  13. I'd rather not give literal fascists a platform, I have and will continue to attempt to prevent that in person or by whatever means I can (Inside the law) And as I've stated previously, The Proud Boys are literal fascists in my opinion and yes Rogan gives them a platform
  14. As far as I'm aware, no one here called Rogan a Fascist, I (and possibly others) said he entertains and give Fascists a platform, that is entirely different As for him taking horse medicine, that is from the horses mouth, he himself said he took Invermectim when he had COVID, so I don't see how that's even an issue for anyone
  15. They were both meant to go to Ukraine tomorrow. It’s more like Truss doesn’t want to be seen to be with Johnson
  16. Am I alone in thinking she got the red marker pen out to avoid having to go to Ukraine with Johnson tomorrow?
  17. You appear to think that Joe Rogan is the company, he isn't he's the naughty seed NY criticised Monsanto and criticised Spotify for their business practices. Pfizers immunity from Prosecution in the US is absolutely irrelevant Entirely consistent
  18. The Monsanto criticism was about patenting GMO seeds and suing farmers who resowed seeds they'd collected from their own crops as patent infringement I thought? What scientific response is there to that? It was about politics and the law not science
  19. Well, the rumour circulating amongst Cabinet Office staff is that he has. I would take this with a pinch of salt as it probably is 2 + 2 = 1024 (The daughter has a friend who works in the Cabinet Office and there is most definitely a rumour flying around there of another pregnancy not to a woman to whom he's married)
  20. Would anyone care to speculate as to when when Downing St Party Mixtape volume 17 is out?
