I don't think there's any conspiracy here - Capitol even sprung for videos for the 1989 singles. "Kokomo" was on Elektra purely because the soundtrack album was - the Capitol album deal came in the wake of "Kokomo"'s success. I don't see a major company signing someone just to bury them. Why ? Not impossible... but hugely unlikely.
excellent responses AGD!

Record execs are not adverse to that type of bad behavior - They send a limo out for it!

It is far more likely that the Love RRHOF incident helped put the backing in place that made it possible for Kokomo to become a hit - than the opposite.

wow - that was actually fairly amazing...

i'm surprised no one has mentioned it, but judging by mike's tone wouldn't you say at least some of his comments were kind of (albeit drunkely) tongue in cheek?


even more worthy of discussion, the amazing colour coordination going on with mike's bow tie & hat



and finally, only a few years till brian's hope for re-induction comes around..
