Al,

Welcome to RO!!

Not to take you away from this site, or this thread, but if you don't get much response here, try joining and posting over at [[url=http://[/URL]="http://www.thewombf…"]The Womb Forums[/]="http://www.thewombf…"]The Womb Forums[/]... Bob Olhsson hosts a forum called Music Industry 2.0 over there. It's pretty active and you should get some industry vets that will comment.

I would watch out for any clauses that don't specify the auditing to be done at least every 6 months.

The other thing that I would be leary of is anything vague in regards to your song's IP, and future usage in terms of reuse/re-distribution on other compilations.

The other moderator in Bob's forum is Deborah Neville. She's a pretty damn sharp IP attorney. You may want to contact her directly to review the contract. Her husband is a good friend of mine and a fellow muso/songwriter, so she has a real insight into what to watch out for.

Hope this helps you out a bit... and you'll stick around!

Seeing as you're an industry vet, I'm sure there's a LOT you can offer folks here!

Again, WELCOME!

Hey, great to hear you're having more success 20 years later!

I graduated from Musician Institute and got a degree in Music Business which included coursework on contracts and publishing. I also write and negotiate them for the bands I manage, so I would be happy to read over the contract and let you know what I think.

You can send it to me at Contact@MarketingMyMusic.com and I will look it over ASAP.

Thanks for your suggestion here and hope it will be helpful to me.....
