Also, I was checking Sony Music's main site, and saw no reference to Sony550. Wonder if that label is being discontinued? I'm not too familiar with Sony music, so someone please correct me if I'm wrong. - -- Jim Clary __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

If anyone happens to have an MP3 of the Matt Bianco version and would like to upload it to a site, or Email it to jeclary@home.com, I'm sure I could decipher those mystery lyrics. - -- Jim Clary __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Jim, I'm not too familiar either... in some cases I'd never even heard of a couple of these "Legacy Artists"... so I don't know what has occurred, mainly I hope it doesn't bode poorly for our diva. - -- Beverly Martin Jim Clary wrote: > Beverly Martin wrote: > > > > For the heck of it I was wandering about and > > discovered that our dear > > diva is now a part of "Sony Legacy"... > > And no, not a thing about a new album, the old > > bulletin board we had at > > 550Music is gone... oh well. > > > > -- Beverly Martin > > Sony Legacy appears to consist primarily of artists > who are no longer actively recording, from what I saw > of the artist list.

Legacy **is** Sony's "catalog artist" area-- and 550 Music's site is still up at Epic Center-- with no listing for Basia... Her page on the Sony (Japan) site is still there, however-- so we haven't been totally cut off (yet). I certainly don't want to be the voice of pessimism, but I was afraid things might eventually come to this... after all, Basia was "even up" with Sony, and showed little or no inclination to going back into debt to them by touring or doing videos (or even turning in new records, for that matter), so I can't say this is much of a surprise. We'll have to keep our eyes open, and see if she's shopping the new album around to other labels (at least here in the 'States). Let's hope this means a fresh start with a better (read: more sympathetic) label!! - -Kevin soundman@inetarena.com (who is now working on the text to go into the new discography update, Bev-- I promise!!)
