Mencken, what about the people(?) who released the movie "Sargeant Pepper's Lonely Heart's Culb Band?", starring Peter Frampton and the Bee Gees. The movie and its accompanying awful awful awful record stiffed big time. Why? The product was Soooooooo bad it was beneath the tastes of the American public and lost tons of $. Yes Virginia, there is justice in the American entertainment industry, but not much. P.S. The soundtrack LP enjoys the distinction of being the only record ever to be RETURNED platinum. ||||||| || || [ O-O ] Todd Jones \ ^ / {decvax,akgua}!mcnc!rti-sel!scirtp!todd | ~ | |___| SCI Systems Inc. doesn't necessarily agree with Todd.
