Comments Peter Primont, President and CEO of the company: "Cherry Lane was started by Milt Okun when he saw how songwriters were being taken advantage of by publishers. His commitment to integrity and honesty in dealing with songwriters and clients, be they relative newcomers or established legends, has guided us for the first 50 years, beginning with our first signing, Tom Paxton, who, I'm pleased to say is still with us today. We look forward to continuing that commitment to all our writers and clients." Click here to read today's full Day in Pop report Preview and Purchase John Legend CDs |
