OK, anyone who has any music that they are willing to share for free (that is let the Mudcat keep all the money) and does not have there music wrapped up into complicated record deals or copyrights, etc, send it to me (tapes or CD's). Bert and I will choose which songs will end up on the first CD (Mudcat Members Vol I).

Include with the music what we are allowed to do with it. Can we use one song for the CD without worrying about royalties? Can we put clips of it on the web? Can we put the whole songs or album online? Can we do it with Real Audio (poor quality), MP3 (near CD quality)?

I will make as many CD's as we can. I will post any music in any format that anyone sends me and allows me to do so. This is a complicated issue that will take some thought, but with most situations like this, I find the best way to figure it out is to actually do it. Anyway you look at it, it starts by sending me stuff. Once I get a reasonable amount of submissions and see what people are allowing me to do with it, I will let you know and we can start thinking about it together.

Send anything to:

The Mudcat Cafe 1541 N. Bailey Rd. Downingtown, PA 19335

Any questions?
