I love that story! There is a more recent version of that, circa 2001/2002 (?) ... I don’t remember the details all that well, but Wilco was dropped from their label for recording and delivering “Yankee Hotel Foxtrot”; their label refused to release it, convinced it was commercial suicide. The band was demoralized but eventually got their album released by some minor indie record label, and of course it became their biggest selling album by far.
