Crazy About Mercury... [Records]?

Since frustrations seem to be a little... uh... high (understandably)

I found a great way to vent some anger, via the feedback email address for Universal Music (who own Mercury) you can let them know your feelings about anything! From the way in which they seemingly screwed up the release of CHSIB, to the way in which they are apparently forgetting to release an official statement concerning Meats health!

It probably wont do any good, and just be ignored - but what the heck! - getting in my penny's worth was good for me!!

I culd not agree more Ewan. It is a shame that we get no official word from anyone concerning the status of Meat Loaf's condition.

ROCK ON BAD MANAGEMENT!!!!!

Actually the Head of Press at Mercury Records in the UK was most helpful regarding Meat's condition last week, given she was dependent on getting information from his Management Company, and I posted the information in this forum as soon as I received it each time. And if Meat wanted to be sure of the outcome and success of his operation before he made any announcement, who can blame him? Not I.

but its all those careless little things! even on the new single "Man Of Steel" silly little things tell me that its put together without too much effort...

like the cover design? erm... why not just get a nice piece of 'true detective' type fantasy art or michael whelan back?

the credits give credit for the spoken part which isnt even on the edited version of the song.

the difference in sound levels between the studio recording and the two live recordings is not good - and very annoying when transferred to a walkman because you have to twiddle about with the volume because the live recordings are too faint...

i just remember in the bat 2 and even the neighbourhood days when every attention was paid to detail... now... its just a shame.
