Thanks for that comment Rob
I had been wondering why the new CD is apparently going to be on on Rhino/Warners instead of Gord's "current" label Linus because I was not previously aware of any tie up between Linus and Warners.But after some determined googling I found:-
http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:v3T4cDZfBpEJ:www.allbusiness.com/retail-trade/miscellaneous-retail-retail-stores-not/4401918-1.html+&cd=14&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=us
which (cached) page confirms
"Linus Entertainment Inc., the new Toronto-based label founded by Canadian music vet Geoff Kulawick, has signed with Warner Music for Canadian distribution. President/CEO Kulawick formed the label in January after resigning as head of A&R at Virgin/EMI Music Canada. Linus was initially thought to have been affiliated with EMI (Bulletin, Dec. 14, 2000)."
Incidentally the GL Artist's page on the Linus website still has that superb Inspiration Lady video embedded. plus Linus themselves uploaded it to YouTube as one of the 19 videos there on their own channel
