Hello again, Kim:

I listened to "Only My Shadow Knows" and the "Pain" song. Enjoyed both. No, I doubt if either would get "picked up" in Nashville (nor would mine) but don't let that put you off. I was reminded of the Kingston Trio and I could see where Everett might think you sound a little like Kenny. There is an audience for your music so don't let a couple of honest reviews get you down. I respect both Marc and Big Jim and realize they have an entirely different perspective than most of us. Experience does that and I hope you will gain from these words of wisdom. Just remember, you should write and record what pleases you first, then worry about what's "sellin' in Sheboygan" as you continue your journey.
