That and the others.
When was the last time you remember any other album besides Rumours
being updated on their sales?
My recollection is early 90´s when Bare trees was elevated to platinum.
It´s bands (&their managers)job to ask for checking of the album sales.
That´s why record companies often "forget" the sales of most albums.
What makes it even more complicated is when record company leases the record to some other label,
it´s mostly up to band to check for the royalties from further labels.
I think Jeremy Spencer recently said he hasn´t got royalties because hasn´t got time or the money to chase these record companies.
I´ve got early mac record by Embassy,Essential and Sanctuary labels,
who thinks they´ve payed up?
