Are you wanting just songs (to be re-recorded) or the master recordings as well? Any genre not off-limits (I am assuming the genre doesn't matter?)

Thanks for the inquiries! the songs should be 'Radio Ready' and theme of song should promote 'world peace' If you have a master copy to submit that would be great! Or.. submit a high quality mp3 file. You can hear some examples of radio ready songs by visiting my America And Friends site http://www.americaandfriends.com

Hi Marvin! Just listened to ... "Where In The World" AWESOME! Definately would be a good one for our cd project! Will check out the others I posted lyrics for others to see this GREAT song. "Where In The World" (Bizzack / Adcock) Where in the world can a man find his place Where in the world can a man go that's safe Where in the world can a man feel whole Nowhere in the world, but where he calls home Where in the world can a man find himself Where in the world can a man go for help Where in the world can he see what he's sown Nowhere in the world, but where he calls home CHORUS Home might be alone on his horse Home might be his own back porch Home might be travelin' the road Home might be wherever he goes Home might be where he grew up Home might be in his pickup truck Home might be wherever he's With the woman he loves Where in the world can a man find some peace Where in the world can his mind be at ease Where in the world can a man see his soul Nowhere in the world, but where he calls home CHORUS (repeat) TAG (©2002)

Hi Kathy,
I sent you a submission for consideration. A piece called "Voices Rising To Mt. Fuji". I've always had the worst luck sending (especially attachments) to AOL addresses, so hopefully you will recieve it.
Thanks for the opportunity.
Doug.

Thanks again Kathy. LOVE'S GONNA GET US ALL just came off hold with Capitol in Nashville, and is being considered elsewhere, but since this is an overseas project I don't think there would be a problem. If it should by chance make your final selection I will check all our bases at that time to make sure it is OK to use. Good luck in your search, and feel free to browse the catalog anytime. Have a good weekend.
Best, Marvin

Shannah posted on Wed September 14, 2005 Hi Kathy! Thank yo so much for adding "How can we go on" to your station!! And sure, I'm giving you permission to use "Queen of the world" on the compilation c.d., you and Achim (The Mississippian)...great to see artists can work together like this for a good course!!! Bravo! Of course I listened again to your wonderful songs, usually when I write messages I listen to the artists music as well...I tried to write and listen to "Honor Of The Red Whit and Blue" while I was writing.... and that was just impossible....this is such a captivating song, you just have to listen to it with your eyes closed, W O W !! What an amazing song, amazing vocals and lyrics...you are an amazing songwriter!! I added it to my station, thank you for sharing this! Some of the songs could just as well be sung by Lacy J. Dalton....sorta like the 16th avenue style...L O V E it!! All the best, and good luck with your project, let me know if there's anything I can help you with. Love from Shannah _____________________________________ Shannah http://www.soundclick.com/shannah

Hello Everyone! Achim will be posting soon his picks for the 'world peace' cd He will be planning on two volumes! Preference will be given to songs that have both lyrics (vocals) and music. Since this cd is to help children, he will also accept songs related to children. Remember, this is for a charity for children around the world, therapy center in Spain. So.. songs submitted can be about 'world peace' and children related songs. I have suggested putting songs about world peace on one volume and songs related to children on another.. but that will be his decision. Achim is also seeking a Studio to assist in putting this cd together and also to assist him on recording a couple of his songs. You can e-mail him at info@mississippian.de Submissions can be sent to Achim or to me kwedvik@aol.com Thanks again Everyone!

Subject: Production Announcement Re: World Peace CD Project for children's benefit. Hello Everyone! I will be doing the post production (mastering) work for this CD at my home studio in Lake Elsinore, California. I have worked out an agreement with the CD project's representative, Kathy Wedvik, who is taking on the role of "Executive Producer" for this unique complilation project. We are asking that all submissions be initially mailed to Kathy in the highest possible CD (or CDA) quality format. This means you can burn your mixed-down (radio ready) studio files to CD and mail them to Kathy. She will make a back up copy and then forward your originals to me for the final post production mastering. With everyone's cooperation, we look forward to making this project a great success for all involved! Thank you Kathy for this opportunity for all of us to work with you on this project. Best regards with peace, Michael B. ------------------ The OUTLOOK may often appear bleak, but the UPLOOK is always bright! [This message has been edited by Michael Borges (edited 09-19-2005).]

Hello Kathy, Angelika is the chairwoman for the charity we are supporting. her english isn't that good, that's why she mostly writes german. Sometimes I also work as translator for her. BTW Here you can find a report about one of the american children who is supported by the charity http://web21.mamora.biz/kinder_charlotte.shtml The other reports are not online yet I guess. I will tell you more about all the sponsoring for the cd within this week! blessings Achim Here the translation: Dear Kathy Wedvik! We would like to say Thank You for all your engagement, helpfulness and energy you are putting in us, from the bottom of our heart! May your heart always stay this way helping other people. We wish you success, energy and strength for the future. Love from Angelika and all parents and children fromthe Schattenkinder e.V. charity!
