GUEST,Phil Beer Selling muscians work without permission (17) RE: Selling muscians work without permissio 28 May 09


There's a track that I'm featured on available through this medium as well. Regretably, there appears to be nothing that can be done about it. The tracks are commercially available and anyone can license them. Myself and several other people involved have been monitoring the situation for a while with a legal advisor. Unless these people were to make some inference somewhere along the line that there is some form of tacit complicity on our part, there is nothing legally to be done. The track in question that involves me was recorded a very long time ago when there was good money being paid to make 'buy out' tracks for commercial sampler albums. I ceased to have any rights the moment it was handed over and the fee paid. This situation re-enforces the pre occupation I now have with retaining control over everything I do.
All one can do is, as we've done on several occasions, is to advise people never to buy it under any circumstances.
