I'm trying to put some clissac album covers on t-shirts and some other merch to sell. I'm not sure how I would go about licensing the images I'm thinking maybe the label owns the image rights? It would seem like a pain in the neck to try to contact each label and actually get through to someone who would be responsible for such things. I'm wondering if their is an easier more efficient and standard way to go about this. Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.
