14 days are up this weekend! Who is negotiating for the Stones now that Prince Rupert has gone... Michael Cohl? Mick Solo? anonymous legal people? Bill Gates?

If anyone knows of a better public collection of Stones (or Rock) memoriabilia, then please let me know, I'd like to see it. There was a Museum of Popular Music in Sheffield, Yorkshire some years back, but it was pretty short-lived.

I notice that the DECCA 45 record has Essex/Lord Andrew as the publisher. Presumably now part of the Abcko copyrights.

Does anybody know anything about this film? Made around the mid 60's I think. The Stones role is just a concert clip -I think.Referred to in Roy Carr's Illustrated Record book (which Ive mislaid)

One of her first films was "Here we go round the mulberry bush"-about 1967 and filmed around the (then) new town of Stevenage, North London. Music included one Steve Winwood and Traffic -I think they are actually seen playing it live. Must have been just after he left Spencer Davies Group. Probably something of a period piece but I recall captured the spirit of the times (swinging lond

I suppose it would be quite difficult to get a very concrete answer/assessment. Being a "fair" employer doesn't just mean salary levels-as we all know from our own experiences. Loyalty to ones employer doesn't on its own imply anything as I'm sure there are political obsessives, for example,out there, who work around the Westminster village and will put up with all sorts

He just gave the people what they wanted, at that time. ALO a genius? I don't persoannly think so. His productive career was very short-lived (1963-late 60's).

Thanks sssoul. Yes - I see your point.Judging from the way things went with Immediate years later it doesn't seem as though finance and business management were his strong point (or overiding concern) anyway. Sorry to bang on about Eric E- any knowledge of what happened to his legal battles? He seems to have been airbrushed out, though Bill Wyman obviously-at least judging from his books

Dear sssoul. I think I'm fairly familiar with the 1965 "changes" but can you clarify: - did Impact cease in 1965 - did Eric E ever get paid out (he sued ALO though later the Stones sued him); his management contract actually had 9 months to run - although the Stones seemed to be unaware of the sleight of hand by Klein, how much was ALO in the loop, after all he seems to have lo

According to the BBC Radio 4 programme Today, 20 June 08 marks the 60th. anniversary of the long playing record. The format still survives-just. Columbia records (US)were right there at the beginning. The first "demonstration" lasted all of 22 minutes. That might have been the length of some of the early releases.Chuck Berry's I would imagine!

Maybe Brian was in Cannes because the film which he did the score for - and Anita had a part in - was showing at the film festival at the time. It might make sense then. Still after what had gone on during their trip to N Africa not many months before, it does seem suprising. But then, that's show biz, folks!
