Thread Name: Rounder Records has been sold to Concord
Subject: RE: Rounder Records has been sold
Having seen what happened to Fantasy and Good Time Jazz when Concord bought them, I fear for the future of the Rounder catalogue. In fact I think we're in for one almighty asset strip.

All the minority stuff which Mark Wilson and others fought to get in the catalogue in the first place, and then fought to keep it there, will be axed. The only stuff left will be the big selling middle of the road ultra-smooth gunge. What a pity the Smithsonian couldn't have taken it on.
