A Look Ahead from Bob Lefsetz

If you’re familiar with The Lefsetz Letter, you’re aware of the fact that this guy knows his shit, and he’s knows your shit. He’s the Roto Rooter of the music world, sifting through everybody’s shit and cleaning all the pipes.

I’m a little late on this, but Lefsetz issued his 2007 Predictions last week, basically the first music-related must-read blog of the year. Among his saying of sooth:

31. Respect

The key to the future.

And we haven’t had that spirit since 1969.

It’s a more close-knit society.  Everybody’s equal on the Web.  If you’re not concerned with the experience of your customers, you’re doomed to death.  Give people something that touches their souls for a fair price and they’ll give you ALL their money.  Rip them off with shit and they’ll tell everybody they know and decimate your enterprise.

Right on, Bobbo. Couldn’t have said it better myself, which is why I didn’t say it at all. Make it a point to get on over there and see what lies ahead…
