Lind and O'Keefe?

[John Duncan]

For those of you who live in countries where Spotify is available, 'You look just like a girl again' and other albums by Danny are readily available to play. I also see that all of Bob's albums including 'Circles' and the 'Luna Star' album are now available. I've often wondered how the artist receives royalties for these 'plays'.
Bob, do you get a royalty for every time a song is played or does a song have to clock up a required number before they pay out?

I love Danny O'Keefe.

Just discovered his music a few years ago.

Favorite album is probably American Roulette, with O'Keefe a close second.

Amazing concert double bill. You two great artists should be playing to thousands nightly!

There's a rather nice rendition of "Wearing You" up on the YouTube...

Thinking of O'Keefe's "The Road" brought to mind other such songs: "Homeward Bound", Simon and Garfunkel; "Been Too Long On The Road", Bread; "Tunesmith", Jimmy Webb; "Backstage", Gene Pitney; "Is There Anyone Here In The Audience?", Albert Hammond...

...and... "From The Road", one of my favourite Lind driving songs.

Put "Road" or "Rain" in the song title, and you are halfway to having a hit before you even get started.

Don't forget Jackson Browne's "Two For the Road", or the Fabs' "Long and Winding Road".

Moreso the references to the artist on the road - 'ain't all it's cracked up to be', y'know...?

[John Duncan]

And don't forget Willie Nelson's 'On the road again.'

... and I see Bob's new Magellan album has a Road song, and a Rain song... go figure.
