Yeah, Skip: But Norah Jones success may do just the opposite of what you hope. More reissues, maybe -- they don't cost very much in 2003 dollars. But can't you see some Capitol-EMI honchos sitting around with a blance sheet and saying: "Who is this Lovano guy and that Moran. They didn't sell shit compared to that Norah broad. Get rid of those $%&^% instrumentalists and sign soem more divas fast." Similiar things have happened on other labels.

reminded that her sales are funding Blue Note reissues and ad budgets. Her 6 million copies are bringing me closer my dream of owning every Blue Note Grant Green ever played on, just because of how much $ Blue Note can sink into reissuing old catalog. sh http://www.skipheller.com (the new and improved website)
