Thread Name: That Green Linnet Kerfuffle
Subject: RE: That Green Linnet Kerfuffle
UGH; that's horrible, GUEST.

Green Linnet must have made more money off of Andy and the Cunninghams than just about any of their other artists. Stiffing them would surely be suicidal...killing the goose for its golden eggs, as it were.

But then, I haven't heard of any ex-Wizards speaking out on this issue either. So maybe they weren't one of the "casualties". Or if so, maybe they have simply taken it in stride.

Imagine writing and recording a screaming hit like "Queen of Argyll," only to have the record company refuse to even turn over the master recording...that sort of behavior was one of the other major complaints of the "Green Linnet Five."

ARGH.

Anxious to hear what your source has to say (and which one of them it is. ;) )

Slán,
