Additional Comments:

I actually got to talk with Rick and its been months! If you guys recall, I've known Rick since 1980. He is a guitarist, and he got married a little over 3 years ago. He's been going through a lot so we haven't been able to talk. Anyway, we had been working on a music project since the mid 90's. He writes songs, composes them, plays the guitar parts and bass, records and mixes songs. Its taken me over 2 years to record about 7 songs. One song in particular - Blue Green Ocean in my intuitive thoughts is a definate hit. Rick told me today that by the end of the week, he will have his songs on a CD and mailed away to copyright them. Then, after he puts the CD in the mail, he is going to make tons of CD's with our songs on them and give them away. AND he wants to put BGO on you tube! So, you guys will be able to hear me sing! I'm jacked by this. All that work - Rick did 90%, and I did the vocals, but its going to come to light finally! I'll have, in my hot little hands, an actual recording of ME singing! YAHOOOOOOOOOOOO! I thought of Proz coz she sings and she has always been so supportive of me! I just had to tell you guys! I'm so happy about this and I cannot wait to hear the CD!

  • LOL! Well, if Rick sells his songs, I won't make a dime. I will never make a dime off this project. I did it to help him because if anyone deserves it - he does!! Kat

    That IS great, Kat! Couldn't happen to a nicer person. I would LOVE to have a copy, even if I had to find it on YOU TUBE.
    I have a feeling if it gets to You TUBE it will be a real hit!
    You go girl!

  • I'll mail you a CD! I spoke with Rick yesterday (Wed) and he again said - once he mails off the copyright I can do whatever I want with the CD. Kat

    That is awesome, Kat!  I can't wait to hear it. It's a whole new world for musicians, with youtube.  Sometimes all it takes is one good song for a career to really take off!

  • I'm hoping for Rick that he sells his songs - he has worked for over 30 years writing, composing and arranging, recording, mixing, etc.....he deserves this!!!!! Kat

  • I can't wait. The only thing is - I bet some freaks will go there and give it BAD comments. SO, I've decided to ignore the comments! LOL! Rick said he couldn't care less about comments. It would hurt my feelings if someone went there and slammed my singing. So, ignore them I will! Kat

    Hey Kat! That's fantastic! Hubby got a new acoustic guitar which I hope to do some more recording. We are also going to get some songs together and sing for the seniors. I sing on a weekly basis as a group with them, along with to and from work. I don't have that natural talent that you have but it's still fun! LOL The seniors are appreciative of my hard work! he he

    Good luck to you both and I hope your CD sells a trillion copies!

  • Keep singing!!! You have such a pretty voice! I know that you love it so much, and thats why you are good!! With Rick's songs - he has to get them OUT THERE in hopes that someone will buy his song or songs. He said I can gie the CD to whoever I want to! I've been holding back because of the copyright! Kat

    I have to tell you how I recorded these songs! Rick would come over to my house. Set up the mic in the living room, set up his digital mini recorder in the bar about 6 ft. away. I have on this funky broken headphone with only ONE earpiece! The other hangs there so in order for NO feedback to occur, I have to hold the broken piece to my chest while I'm singing listening to ONE ear piece of his guitar track and TRY and keep in time, NO click track!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm so happy right now, you wouldn't believe.
