Husker bites the big un ...

Well, Tim, Warner **does** have some good
bands recording on them and they seem to
not interfere with "artistic" integrity,
whatever that is.

Some artists off the top of my head that 
I like and are on WB are:

	Dire Straits (I may be wrong - they
			might be on another label
			so flame gently)
	Prince (not everyman's fave but you can't
		say he has ever let an exec tell
		him what to do)
	Grateful Dead (Whatever you say about them
			they have nevah sold old
			as a group - notice as
			a group before you start
			in on Bobby Weirs MTV gunk)
	Boomtown Rats (just their biggie - can't
			member the name but it's
			the one with I don't like
			Mondays)
	Stevie Forbert, Rossanne Cash (this borders
			on the fine line)

Bad artists on WB include: Loverboy, Judas Priest
				"and hundreds of others you'd care to..."
