Yo Glamberts- I was thanking @AdamLambert for having a kind, thoughtful convo about my album, life, etc. last night. Didn't mean to confuse!

Adam's Next Album may be available in Vinyl


Comments from RCA ED on Adam Official



Vinyl has made a comeback, even though 90% of units sold wind up framed on a wall instead of spinning in a record player (sad, but whatever!) and the volume of those "increased sales" still don't amount to more than 1-5% those of CD sales...and you know how far THOSE have dropped. Having said that, it's very likely that Adam's next album will be made available on vinyl through the AO store (see what we did for DC's store as an example: http://www.myplaydirect.com/david-cook/this-loud-morning-vinyl-/details/...) - just don't hold me to it because the world's vinyl supplies may vanish or the universe implode before then.
Social media numbers very definitely DO NOT equate with sales. This was true during MySpace's heyday and is true now, during Facebook's. Besides Gaga, you can look at Avril Lavigne and any number of artists boasting upwards of 20MM+ Facebook fans, whose sales amount to maybe 10% of that. Bottom line is that it takes much less effort to 'like' an artist than it does to download a track, never mind find a store that still carries CDs. Facebook's best chance of actually impacting sales will be to incorporate Spotify into their platform, so that you may be influenced to buy this song or that based on your friends listening habits. Stay tuned.
Used to be an album WOULD lose sales counting towards Soundscan if a certain retailer or anther discounted its price below a specified recommended minimum. Even last week, we were wondering whether Amazon's Gaga discount (an aggressive play to garner mass subscribers for their cloud music service) might fall into this category and void their part in Gaga's 1st week sales. But it seems that this was not the case, partly due to changing times and Soundscan rules, and partly to parallel legal issues relating to these recommended minimums equating with price fixing. Or something...don't quote me. In any case, they counted, but don't expect Amazon to play this hand again too often, if ever. Isolated, one-day sales will no doubt continue.
Lady Gaga's case is unique in many ways - primarily because everything is relatively unique during such fast-changing times, and also because hers was an EVENT album the likes of which we rarely see in today's music business. By that I mean that it was a social event, where people wanted to own it without having to hear all the music first, because her star is bright enough right now that "being there" was a big part of the consumer experience. This means her sales and the amount of partners willing to discount or support it in exchange for a "piece (real or perceived) of that EVENT are both exciting and possibly misleading. Everyone was there that week, but now what? What's the lasting impact, if any? Hence the 2nd week sales drop of 84%, and the possibility that, now that the EVENT has transpired, sales will crater unless she can deliver a true smash single or two.
Compare Gaga's example to that to an Adele, whose album has been selling large quantities steadily for months, based on the music itself (one single mega-smash) more so than hype, and you pretty much have the polar examples of musical success today. What's better? Heck, the best answer is that, both models are just fine, so long as they work! But their differences do bring up many questions about the potentially ephemeral nature of Gaga madness vs. the long-term career prospects for steady-as-she-goes Adele. Then again, both could crash and burn tomorrow due to the smallest public snafu, or in the long term as consumer perceptions and music market trends shift. Those shifts are happening on a faster scale every day, thanks to the web's communication strengths, so it'll be interesting to note how those forces affect our marketing decisions for Adam's next album, just 6 months from now.
There's no firm RCA DATE in that comment, by the way, just a ballpark I would personally like to see happen.

Very cool picture "Angel in My Eyes" thanks to @kkaprice


Beautiful fan art of Tommy Joe Ratliff "Angel in My Eyes"


Here's what I had to say about Tommy one year ago!



"Can I just say that TJR is magical!
I have to admit I didn’t get the Tommy thing except for he is beautiful until I saw him up close and personal! 

Since I had the opportunity to look into his eyes in Wilkes-Barre, I understand what Adam saw in him and why he absolutely had to be in the band even if he had to learn to play the bass to do it. 

Tommy is amazing and I know you know cause so many of you keep asking for me to post more Tommy Joe!

Just wanted to say that!"

Adam Lambert 101: An introduction


-------------------------------------
Alice said: Gloria, thanks for creating this Sauli site. Adam’s heart eyes with Sauli tell the whole story. I love them together. They seem so right for each other, far beyond the fascinating fashion coincidences. Adam said this time he’s looking for someone who could take care of him this time, with so much going on in his life. Enter Sauli. Delightfully calm and unphased by all the madness that surrounds Adam, he seems to offer Adam peace, trust, support, and a refreshing love that comes from a good, unneedy place. Aside from an obvious attraction, they are good together because both are artists with strong support from family and friends, wry sense of humor, gift of gab, sunshiny personality, love of dance, compassion, kindness, humility, et al. Sauli and Adam are kindred spirits. Thank you Universe for bringing them together. I hope they always want each other as much as they do now. Adam, we know why your heart is full and we are overjoyed by your bliss.
