. . . and they actually pay me for it!

"Til I Can Make It On My Own", recorded live on the job on PA4X.

Hey Don,

Were all of the backing sounds straight out of the PA4X stock GM or Sound files?
Also was you using a ready made style or did you create one or just record the backing?

Everything was stock out of the 4X. The style was one of the unplugged ballad styles. I don't have it in front of me and don't remember which one.

So nice to hear someone who can sing so well as you do with such a nice tone, Don. Fine vocals and playing the PA4X.

Thank you! I'm going to listen to your music now. I've heard some before and I remember that is excellent!

Hahahahaha!

I STILL can't believe I make a good living doing this :O

I've been waiting 30 years for the 'hand on the shoulder' and "Right, Fraud, you've been found out - get a real job"!!

I know EXACTLY how you feel. But it's too late to stop me now; I've been doing it full time since the 70s! I plan to taper off on my own after this month. Time to stop and smell a rose or two!

Hi Don....I assume you had a band back then? Or even then you used drum machines and stuff?
