Re: ritchie statement in new bn cd


he's admitted he needed the money.....badly. the DP reunion had fallen through. was paid well by all accounts. the other gillan guys assumed he was wealthy, which he can't especially have been. it's said after E H Reid passed away 1977 ish, a lot of financial carnage ensued.

in the wake, RB had to pursue a more commercial direction. lord and Paice were forced out of retirement, Roger became more active. ditto Gillan.

In reply to Bagshot even back in the "good 'ol times" bands are being ripped off. Black Sabbath being a prime example. I think the deal Creedence Clearwater Revival had was a "bad'un" too.

Musicians and sports personalities don't all come with the best education levels ... being smart and clever with your cash is most likely very difficult especially when you have been touring around in a rusty transit van for 5 years eating pie and chips - you suddenly make it big and of course it goes into an overdrive mode in the opposite direction ...

Some sports stars still haven't grown up: witness Rooney and the drink driving offence. Not particularity intelligent? How has he managed his money as it seems he can't manage himself??? There are numerous cases of ex footballers falling on bad times.
