But I think that I am going to start with The Waifs, who are probably my favorite band. I play them more than The Beatles. She is probably going to be the second.

I think it's her best album in years. Stormy, of the CDs you mentioned, Emmylou’s is the only one I’ve listened to but I highly recommend it. I think it’s her best album in years.

I did "Only My Heart" from her album, "Old 5 And Dimers" from Emmylou's, "Lets All Go To Bed" from the Mother Truckers', "Get Me Some" from The Waifs and "The Whiskey Won The Battle" from Ashton's. This method was not useful in helping me decide which cd to buy. I had decided to take 5 albums and download 1 single off of each to decide which one to buy.

Sorry about that. I think it depends on the contract, and of course, it depends on the artist. I was just talking to Ray Scott the other day (interview upcoming), and he went through a very similar situation at Warner. He would have been able to sell the record he cut for them, but only after making payments to Warner. For some artists that probably makes sense. Scott was able to go cut the record on his own, and make a far greater margin than if he'd sold Warner's record. But if you think Warner's being generous, you're wrong. They are not going to just give away their masters. Rick, somehow I missed your comment. Sorry about that. I think it depends on the contract, and of course, it depends on the artist.
