Sadly no; very few current industry friends (though many who were in it in my day). I don't think there IS an industry anymore. That is the problem.

If they can do mircacles with AI e.g Beatles and Randy Travis then do we need artists for the future?

I do blame a lot of retailers for not having listening booths in their stores and lack of promotions. When staff in HMV write their recommendations on a album, we have to take their word for it. Pulling out a phone and going online to hear snippets is silly.

My partner did try to find some albums she saw on HMV website (she refuses to buy online) the staff said in all the stores that "We only get a certain CD's that the head office want in" or "You can order it online"

To cut out the middle man a lot of bands only sell their albums on their websites.

Are you still in touch with industry figures JK. re the Tipsheet, there don’t appear to be many, if any, music business folk here. The Tipsheet might be a whole lot more interesting and possibly visited more by active people in the business if there were insights published to what’s going on in the industry.

Størm Guss Why are most posts here by someone whose ID is Green Man? Is he an industry figure under a nom de plume or someone valued by Jonathan King?
