I'm thinking about Gilberto Gil, who "signed contracts early in his career that essentially gave away publishing rights to the songs he wrote" before regaining his rights and beginning to copyleft: "He retains all rights on some songs, some rights on others and declaring 'no rights reserved' on others, which are now free for others for use in remixes or videos."
Them that's got shall get. :-)
