Album update

Stephen's been finishing it off with me. I didn't really want to add tracks, but we are. Anoushka has been helping me with The Inner Light. I'm about to do Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds. By the way, Disney needs to accept that they took my tracks without asking, then they're attempting to flip it on me because they made a bunch of money. Sony doesn't have the right to assign covers anymore. Apple Corps does. - The album wasn't a profit-making endeavour: it's just something I did while writing. I was trying to get into their heads... It's great that everyone loved it, but all those dorks from the Sam Mendes production weren't the ones who did those parts. It's all me, as the SNL cast would attest. - Disney's pricks keep telling me that they'll put me in jail over copyright violations if I'm not going to play Paul like they want me to. We've been through this before with Merrily We Roll Along: I stood my ground and the production folded thanks to Richard's increasing disillusionment with the project. Even if I did violate Disney copyrights, my argument hinges on educational use. It's fair use because AMPP isn't seeking money; just lightening the mood and handling difficult issues via cartoons that everyone is familiar with. Hollywood loved it! The Simpsons writers tell me that the first 10 seasons are legally the property of Groening and Brooks, so those are fine. Mike Judge and Greg Daniels say it's similar with the first five seasons of King of the Hill. I'd also add that you can't call me pazzo for listening to the non-verbal synchrony of Apple Corps to derive important facts if you're accessing that same psychic network to harass me. That means that it's real enough that the information is sound(ish). That Guardian article confirmed what I'd been 'hearing' for days re: a theme park.
