WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS

24 May 2007

with a little help from my friends

And here the arrogance of record companies…expecting the rubber stamp. Becoming threatening when they dont get it…

Hi Gavin
Hope all’s good with you.
I’m writing to ask permission to use the text CD Of The Week - Daily Mirror on a TV Advert for Joe Cocker’s ‘Hymn For My Soul’.
Is that ok with you? I also have to run it past someone at the paper, do you know who I should contact?
Thanks
Chris

There isn’t one. I don’t think we’ve ever paid to use a quote, but as a
courtesy we always ask permission.

Well as there’s no fee I’d have to say no.

Well as we’re not actually using a quote and it’s a statement of fact
that it was CD of the week I’m not sure we needed to have this
discussion anyway
