Hi David
I thought I'd reply in case you think we've all
snuffed it.
Yes, shame on all three counts, though on the first
one, there's not always a lot to be said as news about
AA doesn't come up as often as it oughta. I don't
know if anyone here bought a copy of the re-issued
last album of his? If so, some feedback would be
appreciated.
Regarding his writer's royalties, more of the story is
explained in the biography that was written a few
years back. If you've already read it, forgive me for
bringing it to your attention again, but it is a
pretty good read. Copies here:

Same old showbiz rip-off story, eh?
I had the great pleasure of meeting up with Mike, the
one who started this Group off, on his recent trip to
London. Sorry we couldn't spend more time together,
fate intervened.... But there are a lot of AA fans
out here. even if we are in an elite group!

PS I'm waiting for an AA song to crop up on Bob
Dylan's Theme Time Radio (if one hasn't already - he
did record one of his once). That'd revive interest
I'm sure.
