Then Doug sent me his ideas for the album cover - none of them really spoke to me - not bad, but not magical, which is what I want. He went ballistic as he does. Once he does something, he doesn't ever want to do anything else, and that is NOT how it works. Of course, he threatens and says find someone else, and then I have to go to the bad BK place because in the thirty years we've been doing this, I think that maybe there have been three instances where I've asked for more options. THREE. And he pulled this same crap back then. I don't think I've had any issues for the past twelve YEARS, and yet I get this crap. And he doesn't want to use my title - The Sherman Brothers Album - well, that's what it was going to be called in 2001 and it's part of a LONG series of albums with that title - I counted at least twelve - The Stephen Sondheim Album, The Kander and Ebb Album, The Alan Menken Album, The Ira Gershwin Album, The MGM Album, The Paul Simon Album, The Burt Bacharach Album, The Michel Legrand Album, well, you get the idea. It's such a pain sometimes. We'll see what happens.
