I don't know if the TSU Toronados "will get a fair amount of that dosh". That's between them and the owner of the master recording. The group might be unrecouped on their royalty account or might not even these days be entitled to earn royalties from their recordings. What I do know is that the master owner demanded and got me from me a much bigger buy out fee than many other master owners would charge, as much as 3/4 times more. In football terms I ended up paying a Manchester City type transfer fee! If I had stuck to the prices (wholesale/retail) that other releases go for - and I know the deals as I distribute/wholesale some other labels - I would have struggled to break even on the kind of niche sales you can expect for this kind of specialist release. Expecting all re-issues to go for the same price is a bit like saying all cars should cost the same, or all meals in all restaurants. Some labels doing the reissuing actually own the rights to the recording and will have a royalty liability based on the very low deals done in the 60's so do not have the costs in that regard as for instance I did in this case.. I actally own the worldwide rigtts to "Your Autumn Of Tomorrow" - The Crow and when I put that out next year I will be charging £10 retail, not £20, as I will not have the same costs as I have had for TSU Toranados. I think £20 is fair enough for 1,000 Wonders - and the b-sdie is not a reissue, this is the first time it has been released (on single at least, and I think any format) since it was recorded. Anyway there's been a healthy amount of pre-orders so thanks to everyone who has supported it. And just think - if you pay £1300 for a copy on Ovide the the group will not see ANY of that money. All the Best, Neil

Would definitely be viable...it's a real pity there has been never been a Volume 2 to "The In Crowd" by Mike Ritson & Stuart Rusell. Volume 1 finishes at the demise of Wigan and a second Volume from then up till now would have been fascinating.
