    wrote: "Major labels - what are they good for these days?" asks Mick Hucknall of Simply Red. "Distribution and dosh. I'm afraid that's all they were ever good for anyway." Hucknall has been the most conspicuously successful star to adopt a new, independent business model, effectively taking the financial risk of releasing records upon his own shoulders, and thereby reaping rewards which range from a far higher royalty rate to retaining ownership of his master recordings. Not only that, but Home, the first album which Hucknall released through his own company in 2003, Simplyred.com, actually sold 2.5 million copies worldwide - more than Simply Red's final release on Warner Bros achieved.

    Thanks for this Michi. I'm amazed how you people find these things. :-D

    Then I have to ask myself, if HOME was so successful, as stated in the article, why didn't SR extend their tour to other countries? (dare I say, Australia?) :wink:

    Ah, it is all publicity. Stories might not be precise, but they promote and sell. :wink:

    If independent distribution is so successful, then why I can`t see those CD's on sale here in Peru?

    What I see is that market and marketing rules work nicely in developed countries, but not in the Third World.

    Small markets are not attractive for profite makers, I guess.

    However, I still think our money wouldn't hurt Mick, and we would love to see him here live here, maybe someday.

    Mick, please, consider some small concerts in another South American countries... think of visiting us someday, before you get too old for this business.
