Here's a link to an article on Negativland.com that has Steve Albini discussing the problems of the music industry. This was written during the early 90s, and it still applies to the big labels!

Ya know - it's been a long time since I've mentioned Kevin Coyne in my blog. Well, it's time to correct that oversight (which I'm doing now) and show a great live version of "Let's Work Together" from 1975. You may even spot a pre-Police Andy Summers on guitar...and Kevin dancing with the crowd...and the major labels ignoring him...thanks RadioMad!
2 cool things about Kevin Coyne:
1) He knew better than to accept The Doors' offer to replace the possibly deceased James Douglas Morrison. Who's want to hang around Ray Manzarek all the time...that's why Jim disappeared!
2) He refused the offer to write lyrics for Mike Oldfield's gazillion-selling "Tubular Bells".
and as a bonus for those looking down here - a link to Mott the Hoople "At the Crossroads" live on German tv 1970. Awesome!!! Awesome!!! Awesome!!!! Embedding disabled but here's the link. thanks stever1957!
