But if the RT players didn't want to be associated with us in any public way, why did they allow their names to be linked to their work, along with a capsule bio, in the RT window? I haven't looked, but has Peter put into the license we purchased a restriction on the citation of these players in any liner notes? If not, there is no legal restriction in listing their names.

Harvey talked about song demos to Nashville and his advice is valid whether musicians record in his studio or we use the RTs. But if I want to release a new album (that sells peanuts on CDBaby and iTunes) and I list the names of the RT players in the credits, I don't see any any restriction on doing that, assuming it is not in the license I bought. (I have a law degree, so bear with me!) If I list the players as "Jim Jones, bass guitar, Tom Wheeler, electric guitar, and Ginny White fiddle, courtesy of PG Music," what is wrong with that?

Finally, who looks at credits anymore in a downloadable, iTunes world?

Just asking some questions.
