Wonder what this means....about Chris's health and about how his catalogue will be treated..

[It's All Gone]

I think this very significant in the sense that this hep to play for Chris medical bills as he is not touring. I think as he is in his 70s his health will be harder to manage.

Perhaps you are right. But he said that from the royalties of "Driving home..." alone he could live a very good life. So all the other revenues are extra I think.

[It's All Gone]

Yes could be.

He could well easly fund a few more music book projects with that!

[Bart]

Sounds like a splendid idea to me I will listen to "Driving home" for the rest of the year and hopefully a new EarBook for Christmas

Here's hoping that his LP back catalogue is released on 180g vinyl like many artists these days!!
