Wow – it’s not a good time for poor ol’ Dean Gray and the amazing Greenday American Edit remix album – got a response, all good apart from Warners serving a Cease and Desist on the album – the site has been pulled, but there are already murmurs about another (Dean) Gray Tuesday – certainly this is better than the Dangermouse LP and deserves to be heard.
Even the Grey Album (EMI) and Kleptones Night at a Hiphopera (Sony / Disney) didn’t get a response that quick.
If you poke around you’ll find it, I suggest you burn copies for friends, share, torrent, put online. The album is pure talent and it deserves to be out there.
Surprised Warners are so touchy, given that other Greenday mashups seem to have the unnofficial nod, if only from the band themselves.
UPDATE: Boing Boing have picked up the story, amongst others.
UPDATE #2: Looks like Dean Gray Tuesday is shaping up to be December 13th. Put it in your diaries folks 😀 50 sites signed up so far, they need more mirrors so consider signing up if you have the bandwidth/space – more the merrier – or in this case, stronger.
UPDATE #3: This was down to a piracy consulting firm doing this on behalf of Warners according to Partyben’s site. Yes and they and their site does look creepy…Also you can help even if you’re not hosting by seeding this torrent on December 13th (I’m sure they’ll be many more – and if you’re hosting I’m sure you can get the tracks from it). See, no excuse? 😀
