That's why I'm talking about setting up copyright defaults from the beginning for future cases. "Hey, Cwm Clwdd, we really like your stuff. Would you be interested in making sure it's still available even if y'all break up or your label goes out of business?"

And having such an organization in place would give us more solidity to ask around about copyrights on now-defunct material. "We're setting up the following structure, and are already representing Cwm Clwdd, Celtic Treehouse, Ann Padhraigh, and Fiddlers' Folly. We're interested in obtaining permission to re-release Clam Chowder tapes. Who do we talk to?"
