Dub Modal Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Future value gambit for Reservoir. It will be interesting to see how they invest in Sonny's music going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

medjuck Posted February 22, 2023 Report Share Posted February 22, 2023 Not sure from this article if they've bought more than the publishing rights for his compositions. Maybe the rights to future releases of the concerts he recorded or even his royalties from other recordings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertrand Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 If Concord agreed to this, and it is not clear yet what is actually involved, there would have had to be lots of money involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted February 23, 2023 Report Share Posted February 23, 2023 Reservoir’s release indicated they acquired his “publishing and recorded rights.” Without more information it’s hard to know what exactly they acquired and under what conditions and limitations. Obviously, they have no rights to his catalogue now owned by Concord/Craft, other than any royalties C/C may be obligated to pay him.
