Oh dear! :-)

Playback of the deceased's favourite music at the funeral is pretty
universal nowadays. I'm sure the church has approached this issue.

In my experience many have not. They will almost certainly have
approached the issue of printing out copyrighted words by obtaining the
CCLA (Church Copyright Licencing Authority) but probably don't realise
that a separate licence is concerned for playing prerecorded music. It's
not a big issue but a church will want to make sure they are doing the
honest thing in such circumstances.


Now, do you recommend I wipe my arse front-to-back or the other way?
:-)

I have no recommendation on that topic.

What, no license and the CCLA police will come along and
throw him , the church and the family in jail and levy a
fine for millions?

It's just a funeral for God's sake!


I'm with you John. What kind of an idiot would post such crap over a
funeral?

One who earns his sole livelihood by creating copyrighted products, and
who happens to be a member (and, indeed, treasurer) of a church which
takes the law and copyright responsibilities seriously.

It's a very simple thing to organise. One phone call is all it takes.

Profanity aside, I think that any decent musician would be HAPPY that
you played their work at a funeral, and wouldnt try to rob the bereaved
blind either.
