Recording Singers - the LEGAL way

[Garry A. Leslie]

Hello All,
The copyright angle comes up all the time.
In theory you shouldn't even be allowed to sing someone elses song, even in the bath!!!
Karaoke wouldn't even exist if all the laws were followed strictly.
We don't even know which companies own copyright to the material they sell.
That's been debated often enough in these forums.
I personally would record a singer and give them a copy The cost is a few pennies to yourself, so you wouldn't be making a profit and lets face it where is that singer going to play it?
Somebody eles disc is on a par with showing home movies or photographs, nobody wants to see them..
Regards from across the pond.
