The sad thing here is that even if he manages to bump the Beatles off
their perch he is only doing so by repackaging and rehashing the same
old tired material. That is with collections and live. What next?
Garth Unplugged for $6.99? Garth's tribute to Billy Joel for $6.99?
Come on Garth, if you are going to do this at least do it with new
material.
Just imagine if the Beatles wanted to play this game with same rules.
They would just flick him off their shoulder by releasing any number of
potential packages. Hell, just think how many CDs they would sell if
they just decided to release mono versions of the catalog.
