I understand quarterly billing, how the record companies run.

There are no record companies in Waikiki.

They say the music you listen to in your formative years stays with you and leaves an impression for the rest of your life. For me, the things that I fell in love with happened in the '70s, when artists were nurtured by record companies and it wasn't about singles.

The only thing the record companies put out now is 'Best of,'

Artists were nurtured back in the '70s. Their music was developed by the record companies.

The record companies fell apart - quite deservedly. Their corrupting, all-binding contract nonsense had to stop.
