histories

Once of my blog subscriptions is to MediaFuturist, and I cam across this excellent link to a story on The Observer.

Its pretty much a condensed history of the record industry since the 60's, from the viewpoint of band manager, Simon Napier-Bell, and paints quite a vivid picture of how the majors have always worked, and how unfair those deals have been. good read! it's almost up there with Steve Albini's The Problem With Music.
