Spot on Rob. Alex's the guy to ask, but he's late of this list! ;-) New Religion is an imprint of Regal records, a wholly owned (but unacknowledged as such) subsidiary Of EMI. It's how Paul McCartney didn't screw millions out of Alex and Dan for the 'Temporary Secretary' track on the 'Secret History comp. I think the license had likely expired, but favourable terms were negotiated on the basis of the ongoing relationship between the artist and EMI. Alex, gob on me if I'm wrong! That's the essence of it I think.
The *real* mystery imo is when was 'Track Four' by Juan Atkins released and why isn't *that* on discogs?! k -----Original Message----- From: Robert Taylor [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 January 2005 09:48 To: Matt Chester; 313 Subject: RE: (313) New Religion / Regal? Isn't Regal the Beta Band's label? The only connection to New Religion is that they're both backed by EMI -----Original Message----- From: Matt Chester [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, January 14, 2005 9:30 AM To: 313 Subject: (313) New Religion / Regal? Hi list - got a quick query that's been bugging me for a while - why is there no entry for New Religion on discogs, and why are all their records listed as Regal records? Is that a parent label, or are the New Religion records licensed from them? I've never noticed the name Regal on any of my NR cuts, though I could just be being blind... Any ideas? Cheers! M.
