"Nightflight" Tu Jul 12, 9P-12M ET:"Remixes NEVER to be heard on Youtube again" Show!

Folks...I KNOW that will bring THUNDEROUS APPLAUSE by some! As you may [[or may not) know [[or care), I've been booted from youtube, propelled by a strange complaint from a
NON-existant entity called "West Brand LLC" [[not Berry's company "West Grand") for copyright issues. Unlike Diana, I KNOW when I'm licked...getting old...the fight is gone.
I'm more than grateful for the support so many of you have given to me and my projects over the years. I particularly want to that Universal, Harry, and others who have NOT had an issue with me using their material to promote and pay tribute [[in my own small way) to the music and artists that I love so dearly....yes....even more than Philly Soul [[slightly more;)). It won't stop me from continuing to extend these songs that I, frankly, always thought were to short, and showing off some of that amazing background that we don't get to hear easily with the focus so often on the lead singer. THAT is what made me want to do these in the first place.
So tonight...and on occassion...I will bring some of the older extended versions and some new ones back to "Nightflight". I hope that won't keep you away. And I hope you who are interested will keep coming back to hear them...on "Nightflight"....on WOMR 92.1 FM Provincetown and WFMR 91.3 FM Orleans...and streaming live in digital stereo at www.womr.org [[http://www.womr.org)

Thanks again for the interest and support...I'm MOST appreciative:D!
John

Some things are very hard to understand. If WestGrand is not Berry's company, what interest do they have in these Songs? It doesn't make sense, does it?

[MIKEW-UK]

Can find no record of a business WEST BRAND LLC. Are you sure it is not WEST BRANDS LLC? WEST BRANDS LLC is owned by Kanye West. his mother was the CEO.

Kanye West has been announced as the newest addition to the William Morris Agency, the firm that also represents Sean "Diddy Combs."

William Morris will oversee and negotiate all aspects of the Chicago rapper's recordings, production, publishing, touring, and endorsements.

"We've always believed that Kanye West is one of the most talented, driven, important artists to emerge in a long time," said West's manager Gee Roberson, of Hip-Hop Since 1978. "William Morris clearly shares that vision, and we're inspired by their creativity and energy. We look forward to working together to maximize Kanye's limitless potential as an artist, a personality, and a brand."

West will also pursue different business ventures through his newly formed company West Brands LLC, which will be overseen by his mother, Dr. Donda West.

A former college professor, Mrs. West has helped guide her son through a career that has earned him six Grammy's based off his critically-acclaimed albums The College Dropout [[Roc-A-Fella/Def Jam) and Late Registration.

It's all jealousy Johnny. You are too cool for school. Too cool for those fools who don't see the free exposure you provide. The way their acting one would think you were taking money from them. You do it for the love of the music. And they would rather destroy the love you have for the music than allow you to help them sell their songs. They're stupid. Find out who those fools really are so we can boycott their product and artists. You don't need me to tell your mixes are amazing, you've got many, many fans of the years who have done so. Your mixes will be alive and well on WOMR! See you on the radio tonight my friend.:cool:

[copley]

Sorry to read the news. I think that YT have the wrong name it's West Grand Media LLC http://www.westgrandmedia.com/

[JimBagley]

I'll be on for a bit tonight, but my first day back to work has left me pretty exhausted. Have a great show.Jim

[luke]

Amen sophis soul-boycott!!

Rob...."West GRAND" is Berry's company....not "West Brand LLC", which is where YouTube stated the complaint originated from.

Mike...thanks!
Yes...I DID see that one reference when I googled the name, but I couldn't quite get the connection, since I have not
touched Kanye's music.

[MIKEW-UK]

Copley got it right, nothing to do with Kanye.

Mike...well....maybe there is something to that. Lord only knows....

[jobeterob]

So.......he is anal and takes his ownership rights extremely seriously to the "nth" degree, not seeing the sheep for the wool, much like music company executives that have been shooting their nuts off one at a time for the last 10 years.........???

[lovechild]

Who-tube? what's that? hey JP sorry to hear the news but we know where you're at, so keep those stretches comin' at us on Tuesday nights! Have a good show!

[sophisticated_soul]

Did anyone here have the Millie Jackson album Sh*tter Get Off The Pot?

Do you mean "Back To The S**t!? I have that one.

[JimBagley]

Millie Jackson, The Miracles, Dionne "You're Fired" Warwick: nice mix John.

[JimBagley]

Do you mean "Back To The S**t!? I have that one.

Yes, Joseph, that's it.

[Glenpwood]

ahh back when Dionne could rely on Burt Bacharach and not Linda Georgian to tell her when her man was with someone else.... and not pay $3.99 a minute for the information;)

[midnight johnny]

Millie Jackson, The Miracles, Dionne "You're Fired" Warwick: nice mix John.

Thanks, Jim!

[JimBagley]

I was surprised when Linda Georgian didn't know Dionne's career would go down the tubes by promoting the Pyschic Friends Network.

[Glenpwood]

evening Johnny, Jim and everyone..... always a pleasure....

Oh Johnny, is tonight is all about your fabulous extended versions, did Extenze pony up any dollars to sponsor the show and run their commercials tonight? hehe

[JimBagley]

Oui Maman!

[Glenpwood]

Love "All Strung Out." The greatest duet by Nino and April...definitely very influenced by their work with Spector as our host pointed out.

[Glenpwood]

tell the scientists I've gone green by buying every recycled version of My Girl and Baby Love Motown puts out......;)

[Glenpwood]

Love the 5th Dimension's version of The Rainmaker..... always used to amuse me during my years of running CD stores that I could go to the shelves, pull a copy of a 5D Greatest Hits CD, open and play it overhead and sell it by the time it finished every time no matter what customer mix was in the store...

[sophisticated_soul]

Excellent, The Orlons Medley! My 2nd favorite MJ remix. Thank you my friend! Perfect!:cool:

Forget these westgrand nuts they are going to regret this one day. Keep going man you had the only remixes I ever listened to,
Steph

[MotownSteve]

Hi John, a change in my life situation as taken me out of listening to your show. However, I do check the comments the next day. Don't these fools realize that people listen to your remixes and then seek the original material. It was through this community that I found docludi's Channel and then Tammi's Two Can Party. I went out and bought the movie Hellza Poppin'. Need I say more?

[texassoul]

Johnny??? :[[

[midnight johnny]

Johnny??? :[[

Sorry, Mike! Sometimes I miss a few posts...I don't get to SDF as often as I used to. Thanks so much for your interest, which I have always appreciated. I looked at a few sites but they didn't seem "Midnight Johnny Remix" friendly, as youtube had mostly been.
But if you have any ideas, Mike....let me know. I have most of the remixes with videos on my hard drive collecting dust.
Thanks again, Mike, so very much.
John

There are a number of soul music websites and internet stations in the UK [[i.e. www.starpointradio.com). I will check with my DJ friends in the UK for ideas for where you could post your vids.
