Supergrass: Save the suits

You don't often hear this: a band arguing for a record label not to axe the management. Gaz Coombes tells Gigwise that EMI needs to be careful:

“I think as a company there’s no reason why it can’t just carry on but our only wish I suppose as a band is that they don’t get rid of too many Tony Wadworth’s,” the band’s frontman Gaz Coombes said.

“He knew about music and had a good approach and wasn’t too biz about the whole thing.

“I think it’s good if you keep those people around.”

Yes. "People who know a little about the business the company is in" can, quite often, be valuable.
