as well they should be but it doesn't automatically mean those thousands will buy anything that's released of hers.
visions of posts of 'millions of Meat Loaf fans' suddenly rush back to me.
the hardest thing to get anyone to do nowadays os to spend money on things they don't need and I include record companies in that.
You have to have massive earning potential for even a consideration of an album being made. I'd love to see Patti go to an independent label and play the hell out of small venues, around the world, building herself up in the process but it's not easy. you've got to get the right agents, promoters and most important the demand from fans.
If it's not there you won't get anyone wanting to spend money on it. Pearl took a long time to be discovered and is only now starting to make a tiny, but potentially large, dent in the business. Kasim has been trying for years and doesn't do that badly at all for the small group (no offence) of support he has.
More recently i've seen that Marya Roxx, a name that will be familiar to a few here, has finally got a label to release her full album on but it's only the start in relation to fully making it.
A Meat Loaf and Patti Russo album is a nice idea but unlikely
