Do you guys, especially musicians, think this is fair?

I don't really see how he can use the changes to the Copyright Act to avoid the assignment he made to Claudette ~ unless the assignment says he made it pursuant to the Copyright Act. But he likely did not sign a restricted assignment.

After all these years.
To go through this.
Coming from a man [[ myself ) who has been happily married for 25 years,
I can not feel this, Smokey is headlining the casino circurt, getting royalites,etc
He comes to this with her, I would have left it the way it was
I'm sure there was enough to go around

Nope. It's all about greed.
