I know very little about this subject,BWS, except to repeat the mantra that everyone who I've ever heard discuss this subject chants: NEVER GIVE UP YOUR PUBLISHING RIGHTS.

To 'The' Beautifulwaterstar,

"This Business of Music" (by Sidney Shemel and M. William Krasilovsky) is the definitive guide on virtually EVERYTHING pertaining to the BUSINESS side of music; including everything about contracts, laws/regulations (e.g., copyright protection), legal/economic effects of musical trends, industry contacts, professional associations, trade publications, etc.

And the most current publications of "This Business of Music" include a CD that contains electronic copies of virtually every conceivable music-related contract/arrangement.

"This Business of Music" is chocked-full of myriad helpful hints about how best to stay afloat in the shark-infested waters of the music business. And the book is comprehensive and thorough, yet still accessible to an earnest novice.

You should buy "This Business of Music" PRONTO. Because, believe-you-me, if you have any serious ambitions about making money as a songwriter, this might be the very best investment that you'll ever make.


Beautifulwaterstar, with your immense poetic faculties, you should make a fortune writing songs. I got first dibs on your initial autographed copy of your first (of many) platinum-selling songs. K? :-)
