[kj] OT - Looking for the dirt on the Music Biz

[Karen Weil]

Cap? Is that some type of term for a British music executive? 
If it is, another word to add to my ever-growing lexicon.

Thanks,

Karen

  This cap was an A&R man for years, so the insights are telling. It's also fun to work out who he's talking about.

  Anyone know of any juicy articles about the down-and-dirty details of the music industry, or even film/tv? I am trying to understand the pathetic stunts and, um, 'conspiracies' coming out of "the biz" of late (and not so late). 

  Thanks all.

   

  I'll start with one, 

  about Mary's Danish http://www.laweekly.com/1999-04-01/music/for-the-record/

  and, http://www.laweekly.com/1999-04-22/news/letters/
