Beggars Banquet

Product Information

In many respects, then, Beggars has been an answer to the record crash. With branches in New York, Los Angeles, Ontario, Paris, Hamburg, Milan, Brussels, Amsterdam, Athens, Beijing and Tokyo, the Beggars Group is now a global operation plugged into the world’s best independent distributors and record shops. Beggars was already a big hitter; but Adele’s gazillion- pound success over the last decade has certainly helped ensure that both XL and the parent company will remain flush for years to come. A strong acoustic Delta blues flavour colours much of the material, particularly Prodigal Son and Jagger and Richards’ No Expectations.

In March 1990, the judge ruled in Mills’ favour: “You could see this enormous weight being lifted from Martin’s shoulders,” recalled Watts-Russell. “In the pub afterwards, we all had tears in our eyes.” But then, just a year later, another crisis hit when Rough Trade’s distribution system collapsed. For scores of indies such as 4AD, hundreds of thousands of pounds were lost in debt, threatening a tidal wave of bankruptcies across Britain’s music business. As indie bosses screamed in endless crisis meetings, Mills and others calmly won majority support to set up a new distribution company, RTM, whose profits paid off everyone’s debts within 18 months. Also in 2002 the Russian label CD-Maximum unofficially released the limited edition Beggars Banquet + 7 Bonus, which was also bootleged on a German counterfeit-DECCA label as Beggars Banquet (the Mono Beggars).
