Re: Reissue catalogue in a mess?

"Petulant' is an apt word. It connotes a willingness to be obstinate; perhaps to be difficult. The mixture of wanting to be recognized while at the same time seemingly indifferent to recognition is a strange juxtaposition in one's artistic ambitions. If he does not want to issue traditional rec...
