Beck's Black Tambourine

So OK, Loser's got us all --- mentally. But Beck's Beck on my list. I always get tipsy and dancing...

BJ the punk called me a lousy deejay. Good thing I never attempted to be one... I mean, deejaying is one thing and doing a playlist is another. Nevertheless, I'd be lousy in both.

1. Major labels for driving file-sharing service Napster out of business in 2001, instead of figuring out a way to make money from its tens of millions of users. Napster multiplied like gremlins with a population of about millions to date.
2. Talent scout Dick Rowe of Decca Records turning down the Beatles, saying "groups with guitars are on their way out," to the band's manager Brian Epstein.
3. Berry Gordy selling the money-losing Motown Records, home of the Supremes and Marvin Gaye for about $60 million in 1988. In 1989, A&M Records sold for about $500 million, and David Geffen got about $700 million for Geffen Records.

Local:

Record companies including the then Octoarts turning down Eraserheads. The band became the best-selling Pinoy band in local history, under BMG Records Pilipinas.

Stumbled upon... Bing Austria of Juan Pablo Dream... Bing used to be with Put3ska, the first ska band signed locally, and if memory serves me right, they were able to produce some four albums, way back... Then, their femme vox, Myra Ruaro formed another band until she became front for Skarlet.
