rct Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 This is precisely why artists sell the rights to their music en masse and can then divide the money only. It's much easier that way. rct Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 That's exactly what Frank did. Gail then took the money, bought the music rights back and unleashed the lawyers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 Yoko was good with money. She once sold a cow for $250,000.00. You don't hear her squawking about being broke. She squawks on her recordings and calls it art. And sells it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one played the tambourine in outfits like hers. Then on stage she would give Lindsey a big, I hate your guts look, even though you told Mick Fleetwood that it was both of us joining or none of us, and that jump started her career. Cause Mick only wanted Lindsey. Edited October 26, 2023 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She could spend 50 million a year and that would last another 14 years. She's 90 so . . . if she makes it that long she will be 104. If you or any one out there can't live off of 50 mil, then you got real money problems. Edited October 27, 2023 by Sgt. Pepper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub-T-123 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Frank was definitely a gear head. Pretty much everything listed is either an absolute classic or something that would have been extremely high end when it was originally purchased if you know anything about studio gear you are looking at some serious $$$ right here even without the Zappa affiliation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveFord Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 His stereo gear wasn't so hot but in an old interview he did say it wasn't The Playboy Deluxe System. I've been unable to find that article, it was in either Rolling Stone or Playboy, where they featured the various rock stars and their stereo gear. Some of them had really nice systems but most of them were like Frank's, it was okay but nothing wonderful. Grace Slick said she didn't care as they mastered everything to sound good on AM on a car radio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: How's that for a useless post. Ever try listening to Live Peace In Toronto side 2 ? When John says "And Now Yoko Is Gonna Do Her Thing All Over You" he was not kidding. One album side of Yoko screeching like a cat is having small pieces cut off its body by a rusty Bowie knife. One listen was 5 times too many. Edited October 28, 2023 by Sgt.
