More things than are dreamt of in Terry Teachout's philosophy - Jazzblog.ca [del.icio.us]
"First of all, we’ve received very little recognition from the artists we are trying to promote. Most never answered our e-mails, we received very few words of encouragement and one even went as far as to tell us that we had no right to take the bio and the pictures from his website..." We’ve also had a ton of problems with record labels... Most of them haven’t answered our e-mails or returned our phone calls, but I was completely stunned when some of them started refusing. We aren’t even allowed to stream songs which are featured on the artists’ MySpace pages! How are we supposed to promote jazz artists and to create a new audience for jazz if people cannot listen to the music?Originally posted by pbailey68 from paulbailey.us (beta), ReBlogged by newmusicrebloggers on Aug 31, 2009 at 08:10 PM
