Paul McCartney has had a mixed last few years, having been married to Heather Mills, and then going through a very messy, very public divorce.
While all of this was going on, he was still writing and recording music, and released Memory Almost Full in 2007.
The album has already sold 100,000 copies in the […]
Radiohead pioneered the idea of music artists forging their own path, without the need for record labels controlling everything, when they decided to allow their fans to pay what they deemed suitable for the In Rainbows album download last year.

However, Chris Martin and co did confirm that they are close to finishing their fourth studio album, with […]
EMI isn’t having a good year, ermm well 2007, or 2008 to be honest. They’ve already lost big hitting British acts Radiohead, and Paul McCartney, and now it looks like The Rolling Stones may also be weighing up their options.
Today they have announced a deal with Universal to release the soundtrack for their Martin Scorsese […]
