i think I saw a post about this earlier, but why doesn't he just release it himself. If he wants the music out there and isn't worried about making buckets of money, he could have the cd's made and then hire someone to distribute. it doesn't have to be large scale, just start out with the internet; he has a website, sell it there and on the fm site. word would travel fast and those who would have bought it will find out where to get it and next thing you know we have the cd we want and he's given it to us. granted this proposition would barely cover the costs of production of the cds and distribution, that is unless he were to charge a ton of money for them, but it would make the fans happy. Just my 2 cents, and since i have almost no knowledge of the music industry everything ould be completely unfounded, but hey you live you learn.
