http://tinyurl.com/ylfm9u9 Michael Jackson Deal: $225 Mil Just For Records Roger Friedman这个很爱写MJ的也写了一篇 有提到可能的唱片内容 他好像总有很多内线 (16-3-2010) Roger Friedman has just reported the following in his column Showbiz 411 this morning: The new Sony deal for Michael Jackson’s new records is actually worth $225 million according to my sources. That means that Jackson attorneys John Branca (a co-executor) and Joel Katz, with the help of co-executor John McClain, have cut for Michael Jackson’s estate the richest deal ever in recording business history. It far exceeds the deal Sony made with Bruce Springsteen a couple of years ago for $100 million. 以上是上一篇大意 The deal is only for records for the next seven years. It already includes the soundtrack to “This Is It.” Come November, the first scheduled release will be a collection of unreleased tracks perhaps including a duet with Paul Anka and one or two songs left off of “Thriller.” 合约包括了TII的原声带 十一月预计发行的会是没发行过的歌曲 有可能会包含Paul Anka合作的另一首歌 (Paul Anka又出现啦 = = ) 还有一两首Thriller当年没放入唱片的歌 Two more releases will be anniversary editions of “Bad” and “Off the Wall” which will include extra and remixed tracks a la the 25th anniversary edition of “Thriller.” McClain and hopefully Jackson’s longtime manager Frank DiLeo will be involved with those. 另外两张应该会是BAD和Off the wall周年特别版 会包含新的歌曲 和remix版的歌 John McClain(另一个遗嘱执行人) 和MJ的经纪人Frank DiLeo会参与其中 (是要歌迷买这几张几次阿orz) There are also enough tracks for at least one or two live albums from various Jackson tours. 还会发行一两张演唱会的Live专辑 (希望是BAD tour) The Sony deal does not include anything to do with Michael’s publishing, live shows still to be arranged, or merchandise. A show with Cirque du Soleil, as I’ve written before, will be announced shortly for Las Vegas. 这张合约不包括MJ其他出产品 演唱会录影和其他商品仍在协商中 而和太阳马戏团的合作 会在不久後宣布在拉斯维加斯开演 But all of that is separate. What happened: Since his death Jackson has sold 31 million albums worldwide. Sony, which had parted company with Jackson before his death, wants to remain in the Jackson business. With this contract, they will be in business with his estate for at least seven more years. 钱尼一直都想继续跟MJ的合作关系 这纸合约会保证未来七年的合作关系 Insiders say that Jackson’s estate will retain the rights to all the master recordings, too. This is highly unusual. Also: Branca, Katz and McClain also, apparently, renegotiated Jackson’s royalty rate with Sony for this deal. “It ’s the highest rate anyone’s ever had,” says a source. 内线人士表示 MJ的遗产公司仍有所有歌曲母带权 这很不常见 而MJ的遗嘱执行人 显然还在跟钱尼协商版税 而这将会是史上版税抽成最高的协议 (我看各论坛 好像大家都说本来MJ所有歌应该是01-02年就会回到他手中 但却没有 才有 炮轰摩托拉事件 後来是应该去年 也就是MJ去世後的几周 他的歌就回来了 不知是否如此) At this rate, the prediction is that Jackson’s huge debt leveraged against his own MiJac Music Publishing will be paid off in a short time. His even bigger debt, secured against his one half interest in the Sony/ATV Music Publishing company–also known as the Beatles catalog–will be refinanced and reduced. When Jackson died, sources point out, he was $500 million in debt.His estate is now solvent, and his children are well taken care of for their lives. 这样看来 所有跟MiJac Music Publishing有关的负债会很快还清 而他另一个更大的负债 之前是拿他$ONY/ATV歌曲版权(包含披头四版权)来作保的 这个部份 会被资产重组 而MJ的持有权会降低 !!! 当MJ去世时 消息指出他有五亿负债 而随着他的去世 遗产公司能够还清 而他的孩子们的生活将会得到妥善照顾 (谁可以告诉我 为何人死了负债会一直变多? 从一开始一两亿 到两三亿 到现在五亿?) It is the sad irony of the Michael Jackson story that for years he suffered financially, and drifted in his career. Since his death. his career and finances have flourished. MJ的故事是非常悲伤和讽刺的 多年来他有财务困难 事业也有危机 但他死後他财源滚滚 而且事业蒸蒸日上..... Source: MJFC / Showbiz 411 -- 在一个充满仇恨的世界 我们仍须勇於希望 在一个充满愤怒的世界 我们仍须勇於安慰 在一个充满绝望的世界 我们仍须勇於梦想 在一个充满猜忌的世界 我们仍须勇於相信 ---------------麦克杰克森 --
