Nice article about BB, Alan Hawkshaw, Keith Mansfield et al re: Library Music. A lot of the info already known to us of course....but good to see it reaching a wider audience. Plus, news of a new project. Definitely worth a read.

THIS TOO!!!

I had no idea about this until about two minutes ago! Looks like it will be great - featuring Brian, Alan, Dave Richmond and many others,

About three years ago I had the very great pleasure of interviewing Brian, Alan, Francis Monkman, Barrington Pheloung and the late Lynsey de Paul for a prospective documentary on film and TV composers (not specifically library music, but this was also covered). Nothing has come of it yet, but my fingers are crossed that it will see the light of day eventually. In the meantime, this documentary is something I will buy and would subscribe to if there was still time! I met Shawn Lee at the KPM All-stars gig way back in 2012, I think it was. I have his email address somewhere! Nice to see that he's behind this...
