SongVest to Auction 80’s Classics from Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Kenny G, George Benson and more
Preston Glass is back at SongVest to
auction classic 80’s hits from Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, Kenny G
and George Benson.
SongVest,
the company that reinvented the music business by offering the ultimate
fan collectable — ownership in the royalty income of the songs
themselves — has announced their next auction will feature classic
songs from the 1980’s.
Fans will be able to bid on a percentage of the royalty income for
each song at auction. Each item is a “No Reserve” auction so that means
these items will sell if there is a bid. Buyers will collect their
royalties quarterly from SongVest and can track all of their purchases
and royalty income via our “Music Mogul Dashboard”.
Preston Glass, a legendary songwriter and producer, is back at
SongVest to share more of his classic hits with the fans. “My last
experience with SongVest allowed me to connect with fans in a way not
possible before. I am glad I can share this unique memorabilia with
them.”
Highlights include “Who’s Zoomin Who” by Aretha Franklin that reached
#2 on the charts off her first ever million-selling Platinum record and
“Don’t Make Me Wait for Love” by Kenny G which also reached #2 on the
Contemporary Chart with the album Duotones going 5x Platinum.
Additional songs up for auction are “We Don’t Have to Take Our
Clothes Off” by Jermaine Stewart,, “Kisses in the Moonlight” and
“Shiver” by George Benson, “Love is a Contact Sport” by Whitney Houston,
“Against Doctor’s Orders” by Kenny G, “Gimme Gimme Gimme” by Narada
Michael Walden, “Touch Me” by Alisha Warren, “Sweetness” by Michelle
Gayle, “Perfect Combination” by Stacy Lattisaw/Johnny Gill and “Ten Ways
of Lovin You” by Lenny Williams.
Preston Glass has been a part of 30+ Top 10 R&B Hits, five Top 10
Pop Hits and five BMI award-winning songs. He is the one of, or the
only, songwriter in all the songs at this 80’s auction.
The auction will begin on July 9 at 12:00 a.m., and end July 17 at 9:00 p.m. EST. Fans can register now at SongVest.com.
Since 2007, SongVest has offered music fans, collectors and investors
the unique opportunity to share the royalties with the writers of their
favorite music. Past auctions have included the rights of songs
