He said the costs of employing all these musicians/engineers etc was bad enough but by the time you fly them all over the world and pick up the tab for their hotel bills you find yourself hoping the credit card doesn't bounce. Bete Noire has the most musicians on it compared to any other album.

I thought it would be worth mentioning Richard Thompson's. He is a heavily bootlegged artist, and it drives him nuts. As a way of dealing with this, after every tour he privately issues an 'official bootleg', clearly marked "Not for Broadcast or Review". They are only available through his info service. And, frankly, two of them are the best live recordings I have ever heard. (There is grumbling on his list that these discs would make him a star if properley issued, but thats, um, parenthetical) Some folks in RT's camp have said that though these are very limited editions, RT makes more money per disc from these than from any other income source.

I reinforce the word 'persona' since it is not at all clear who the name 'eman' belongs to. It is obvious, however, that eman revels in causing disturbances. This person's disruptive behavior pattern matches more 'posters' than I care to think about - I find it is disturbing to actually encounter a person who engages in such behavior disguised as multiple beings. For eman's sake, I truly do hope these multiple 'personas' would get their collective act together and seek intensive professional medical treatment immediately. Again, thank you William. Best wishes.

Sometimes less is better... IMO :) I've heard albums done on a shoestring budget, that sound much better than albums that cost a fortune. The Velvet Underground & Nico took three days to make and cost 2,500, a mere snip compared to most records at the time.
