No Bob, I have followed the correct procedure and I have only received gratitude from family members.(Who get a copy FOC of the finished collection).
For current players most like to hear their recordings to approve them and of course get the necessary agreement on royalties etc Only a few have not answered my Emails, which I really cannot understand, as to be included in amongst the Worlds best and archive greats, is a bit of a short sighted attitude.
Some of the relations have become personal friends who I keep in touch with.
Bob a little tip, a full explanation of what you are trying to achieve and why you wish to include the recording,normally helps to dispel any fears of close relations to the artist.
