Charlatan’s give away album
As MusicRiot reported in October last year, legendary UK band, The Charlatans, have released their new album through the website of radio station, XFM.
“You Cross My Path” is the latest album from the band. Lead singer Tim Burgess is reported as saying: “When we were recording the album, we already knew we were going to release it for free over the internet, and that’s when we realised we had to make it a brilliant album – you can’t cheat free.”
Burgess explains: “We want ‘the people’ to own the music and we want the artist i.e. us, to own the copyright. Why let a record company get in the way of the people getting the music?”
