The music industry has unfortunately
reached a point where
the amount of money a record

is more important than the talent gS^I?

little doubt that if Elton John
recorded a cat fight, and placed his
name on the cover, the record
could still sell 1 million units. It *
seems a shame that truly talented
people release fantastic albums,
and the general public does not
even know it. This year three SO
