Neil Freiman

I guess it's technically legal because these artists do own the original composition and the live recordings of what they're playing.

But he's not profiting from it, so it seems like they just don't care and they look the other way.

And even one band, The Replacements, incorporated audio from one of his tapes of a 1986 show to a 2023 live album that they released.

So it seems like the artists are loving that this is being preserved as well.

That was my first thought as well, Neil.

You can just go to Adam Jacobs, just Google Adam Jacobs collection.

And one interesting quirk about his name is that his name Adam is spelled A-A-D-A-M.

Gets him to the top of the dictionary.

Three A's.

It's Monday, so here's what you need to know to stay ahead in the week ahead.

Coming up on Wall Street this week, the return of earnings season.

Big banks kick things off early in the week with reports from Goldman Sachs, J.P.

Morgan, Citi, and Wells Fargo, so everyone in that meeting.

The past quarter was pretty epic for them with all the market volatility, so expect booming profits.

Some other companies to watch, Netflix, Pepsi, and Johnson & Johnson.

And banks specifically, they're expected to bring in over $40 billion in trading revenue because while you're watching the stock market go up and down, they're actually making money off of it.

In sports, the slog of an NBA regular season has mercifully come to an end, and the play-in tournament gets going tomorrow and runs through Friday.

The actual playoffs will start on Saturday.
