        Ah.  You are referring to the RIGHTS to the album, which I was
        not.  Yes, if your presumption is correct (Al?), and CBS owned
        the rights, _Imaginos_ may have been shelved.  I was addressing
        whether or not Albert needed their help to actually RELEASE an
        album.

        I am curious - can a label own an album that doesn't exist?  Or
        would they just own "Albert's next album?"

        Wow.  I was struck with how similar the two are.
