I can name one:  waiting for the Trashcan Sinatras latest release.  You
want to talk about bad record companies ?  Their label, Go!, has pushed
back the latest release for a year.  We die-hard fans used list members
in France and Japan to send us imports.
 
I never fully realized the importance of proper artist support via their
respective record companies.  These two lists have allowed me to see a
little more 'inside' and observe how callously quality bands are treated.
