Thread Name: Cecil Sharp
Subject: RE: Cecil Sharp
did Sharp ever have published songs or tunes on 78s.and if he did did he pay the royalties.
who recorded the early wax cylinders of JOSEPH TAYLOR and was he re imbursed.
so whats the difference between Sharp and kennedy, Sharp exploited his source material for monetary gain, so allegedly did kennedy. IS kennedy vilfied, because he didnt sell them as piano arrangements but put his own melodeon dubbed onto recordings. where does it all begin and end.
guest says the amount of money, sharp made from his arrangements were negligible, Iam sure this applies to Kennedy too.
