Marc

I appreciate fully what you just said. I hadn't heard that Alador was seeking to market his stuff; maybe I missed that part. I saw him more as a songwriter who wants to know where his songwriting might be improved--not necessarily to please a market or industry dynamic, in which case he'll need to change a lot about his style. When I listen, I hear a sort of Clapton vibe, maybe with a bit of Dylan. The recordings are, I agree--completely wrong if he hopes to submit them for approval in the industry. I assumed he was a lot like me...that he writes because he has to in order to quiet his spirit. If I don't in some way get what bounces across my brain out into daylight it drives me absolutely bonkers! If Alador seeks profit in his writing, I agree he should pay very close attention to every word you are kind enough to write for his benefit. I don't always chime in, but I pay close attention to what you write, Marc, because I might eventually want to make a buck, and I've learned a lot from you--for which I owe you a tall one some day. I drive through Nashville once in awhile...it could happen.

All My Best
