Subject: (hats) Oglio Loves The 80s
Hey Hatters-
I just received my Hats Digest (it figures as soon as I switch to the
digest the subject of Oglio comes up). Thanks for the kind words about
Oglio. :-)
Oglio started in 1992 with a single mission to reissue the hard to find 80s
music I enjoyed hearing on KROQ here in Los Angeles. We started with
compilations and, as the compilation market exploded in 1994, we later
added single artist reissue collections. We now release comedy, novelty and
new music as well.
I would personally love to release Ebn-Ozn, Haysi Fantayzee, Classix
Nouveaux and a long list of others but unfortunately economics prevents me
from doing that. I learned valuable lessons with releases like Red Rockers
and Wire Train.
The major labels are big machines and it takes alot of money to get them to
even generate the paperwork for a license. The labels generally ask for
25,000 unit guarantees that mean a small label risks $100,000 - $125,000 to
put a record out. I risked that to put out the Men Without Hats Collection
and most of the other Oglio licensed records. Oglio and the label (MCA)
were not able to come to terms for a MWH 2 for 1 in the USA.
Sorry to Michelle and the other list members that don't care about non-Hats
stuff. I thought most of you would enjoy my answer.

Subject: (hats) Treblinka
I found out something very interesting about Treblinka in my history class
today...
Treblinka was the name of a Nazi extermination camp during World War 2.
Whether the song was refering to this place, I don't know. A small
coincidence however - the leader of that camp was Ivan the Terrible. Weird,
huh?
