Hey 21st century Paul, there are 2 different Sam's here, it's confusing i know! lol! How's everyone doing today?
I get confused LOL Dunno what to tell you... I think next Monday I'm gonna call myself by phone the A&Rs of the big labels in Spain. I've seen that some people have do it and it has worked it out. I want them to "define" a little more. To tell me what do they want... They use to say "any style" and then when they call someone to refuse his music they say "It's not our style" ehem... I'm no fool. Well, the thing is I want to know how many big labels are "opened" to music out of the hip-hop, disco, sillysongs style... Cause if some record labels is not opened to it, it's better to know it. I'll delete them from my list and tell them goodbye. Past week I've call SGAE in Spain for a legal doubt. I talked with the half of the people there or so... And all I know is I've got to ask ASCAP. I hope they'll answer my mail. Because explain this thing (the performing via messenger) to them in English by phone (or maybe even by mail...) will be impossible to me. Actually, the Spanish lawyer and me had a long conversation till understanding each other, It will be difficult to talk with the correct person of these labels. Anyway I can send them some mail too or so. In Spain we use to say: "If the mountain doesn't go to Mahoma, Mahoma goes to the mountain". If I don't try it, sure that I'll get no feedback.

Hi Cbimbi. Don't you asked me bout Ronaldinho a few months ago? Now it's being the greatest star here in Spanish Football League. I think even above the Real Madrid stars. And I'm a Real Madrid supporter!... but the Barcelona is not allright. And they are that way since a long time ago... and with almost any kind of players.

I imagine he is quite busy, which is why he hasn't been here. If he was busy with the ladies, he does not strike me as the kiss and tell kind of chap...

Hi, 21stC.P. the problem about Ronaldinho Gaucho [ the way we call him in Brazil ] is not the ultra-skilled football, but his mind.... I live in Porto Alegre an my fave team is Gremio where he played since 8 years old. he allways is the very best among his companions in all the teams he played.... these teams are always loosing. He play for himself not the team... one thig you can be sure, Barça will not win any Cup by now. I think Real has the better football way in the world, the players are skilled but play for the team cheers... I,m starting to worry about Sam, lost in paradisiac Dubai, the word that means " Oasis of Pleasure "

My intuition is OK LOL I didn't know bout Dubai's name meaning! LOL mmm... I thought this bout Ronaldinho Gaucho before... but then I watched him and he use to give great passes. Dunno what to think. Well... I think it's similar to Rivaldo. He gave great passes but he was not a good "tactical" player. He did things with the ball like Pele or Maradona (like Ronaldinho Gaucho) but he didn't have the wisdom to make them in the correct moments and in correct places... A football team is like a rock'n'roll band (and like every team of persons). It needs 3 things (Individual talent, Diversity of Talent and Team-Work). Imagine Hendrix on The Beatles instead of George Harrison He will be a "crack" but the whole band would "lose"... The manager or Real Madrid (Valdano) says that his ideal playing is Brazil nacional team 1970. All the differents talents came together as a team, helping each other.

Hey Guys hows everyone doing today?

Hey Guys hows everyone doing today?
I'll tell you again bout my stories ... The record label that answered me is "the one that answers". And the others are the ones that "don't answer". I went to a musicians web in Spain, and it's been the same for several musicians. It's funny to see all the excuses that A&R's secretaries give in a phone call... Only 1 or 2 companies answers. And only a few are possible to talk them by phone, maybe. And possibly most of them hardly heard them. I think that in Spain the labels didn't have really A&R sections. (The person who answered me from a label was american). When a record is released, if you investigate, you find that is "a daughter of X" or "a cousin of Y", etc. Well, tomorrow I'll call anyway. And I'll send the rest of the CDs anyway... Well. I've got many respect by some British and American labels. British above all. And send CDs to America would be very expensive (and slow) knowing Spanish postal service... So I'll see if I can "get out of here" the rest of Spanish CDs.... And look for British labels. I'll search present rock artists and their label... (Oasis, Radiohead, Manic Street Preachers, Ocean Colour Scene, Travis, Coldplay, etc.). And I'll send them there. But I've got to "translate" the cover, print it, etc.... that's in the future. Well if you take a look for the last 40 years... where almost all of the great artists came from? U.K. Only one of country 60 milion people has given most of the great musicians. What present Spanish great musician do you know? And there are bands everywhere...

I'm great Hymn! Nice to see you posting on Sam's thread again!

Welcome back to this thread, Chico!!!

I'm gonna call the Big Men in Madrid now. I'm gonna wish myself luck(but I don't believe it luck)... let's say... encouragement to come up with something. .... I'm back after calling. Well, first I've found a web (via a science magazine) of a team of people who's trying to work out Audio Recording Studios via online :-). The future's coming. This reminds I've got to e-mail Ascap... http://sound.media.mit.edu/ Well, I've talked with some big label... they insist they listen to all the CDs but that they take many time to do it. They say they got "Boxes full of CD" I can imagine... well... Here I go England too, anyway. I've talked with a producer company. A man listen to demos and see his chances, and then if they think so send them to the record labels... I guess that directly to the real man that manages the things in a record label. So I got to send them my demo and wait for a call of some pro manager-producer. Tomorrow Never Knows.

Hi, 21stC.P I wish the man who will listen your tapes wont be the same genius that was working in London for Decca, 1962.... heh, heh.... and Sam???? SAAAAAMMMMM!!!!!

Hello I hope everyone had a good weekend and all is well. I am so excited the upcoming Paul projects-the AIDS benefit, new song with Brian Wilson-I was beginning to have Paul withdrawal but now I am OK again. Sara-how have you been? 21st Century Paul-good luck on your project Has anyone heard from Sam?
-
Hey Tashi how are you? I am good! yes that is neat Paul is doing that benefit but you know the day he is doing that November 29 is the 2 year annivesary of George's passing. I wonder if that will be video taped so we can see it on TV? that'd be neat! It'll be quite a trip for him to make to Africa but he'll do anything for charities and that is great!
