Folk and country singer Emmylou Harris, who won her 10th Grammy this year in the contemporary folk category for her album ``Red Dirt Girl,'' spearheaded the effort to bring the artists on board. Recordings of the 1999 concert will be released on a series of CDs in April by Vanguard Records.

Greene suggested also that the planned commercial release of the performance might now be in jeopardy due to the circumstances. "We are reevaluating in light of Napster giving it away to hundreds of thousands of people," he told the news agency. Note: The recording academy is now in a lawsuit against Napster to have all the grammy performances, including Sheryls, removed.

"The Sun Records empire was built by people who put music first," says the Who's Pete Townshend. "There's lots of jewels in there." For their part, the Who are expected to record a version of a Jerry Lee Lewis hit, "It'll Be Me." Dylan offers a rendition of "Red Cadillac and a Black Moustache," Jimmy Page and Robert Plant cover "My Bucket's Got a Hole in It," and Jeff Beck and Chrissie Hynde team up for "Mystery Train." Also signed on for the project are Mark Knopfler, Kid Rock, Van Morrison, Sheryl Crow, the Roots, Elton John, Aerosmith, Bon Jovi and Rod Stewart. The documentary will include footage from the album's recording sessions.

(BMI) on Monday said it signed Internet agreements with 15 performance rights groups overseas, enabling Web sites to get a single performing rights license covering international markets. BMI tracks and collects fees for the performance of more than half of the music heard on American radio. ``If Sheryl Crow (used here as an example ed.) was singing in the U.S. and people were listening to it in England, our old license would not cover the transmission all the way through to England,'' Conlon said. Note: ok I don't know what this really means, but I think it means that if Sheryl performs somewhere in Europe now, some sites have the right to broadcast it online in the U.S. and vice versa. Before, because of the copyrights, that wasn't possible. Now if she actually did perform in Europe this could be a really cool thing...

Can't wait to hear the new song. Also, I hope the magazine is right saying that the new cd will be out in the summertime. This album's gonna ROCK big time. yoffe3@aol.com (M Yoffe) ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2001 16:24:52 -0500 From: "Mike Sarzo" Subject: [sheryl-crew] "It's Only Love" The more I think about "It's Only Love" (the song Sheryl wrote for Stevie on Trouble in Shangri-la), the more I think that Sheryl understands Stevie better than anyone who hasn't known her for 20 years, and I think as a producer, Sheryl can capture Stevie's essence better than anyone this side of Lindsey Buckingham or Jimmy Iovine. I think those things speak very well for the friendship the two have formed in the last three or four years. Besides, "It's Only Love" is absolutely beautiful... and one of the best songs Stevie's sung in years IMO.
