Marc--

"Better to light one little candle than be alone in the dark" Fred Waring" when I was a KID.

Remember the green book?

I have an old copy--52000 song writers in Nashville, about 450 making enough money in music to not need a day job. I had to make my money in Photography and Electronics--to allow me to be close to the music, that I love. Money is not #1, it's just ahead of whatever is 2nd.

Any song in production, is there to bring in the BUCKS--Who will buy this song????

I remember Skip E. had a song "Gospel according to Luke". I drove down town to see if I could find "Luke". I bought the Sheet Music and Record--Because the song touched me. That doesn't happen much anymore in today's GIN MILL PRODUCTION.
It is more difficult to tell who the artist is, because of all the recording effects used in production. I still think SAM PHILLIPS had a killer operation in Memphis--small but had that sound.

As usual, Just my opinion!
