My Life's Musical Journey... The Changing Years - Lead Up
I was falling into the trap of being more interested in the commercial aspect of my music than the healing properties. Anyway, I hastily formatted an idea for a second album, recorded it and sent it off to the recording company.
They knocked it back.
So I tried it again and sent it off... and they sent that one back too.
My journey, it seemed was far from over.
Meanwhile I was busily trying to promote 'Beyond The Clouds' whenever and wherever possible. Another year passed by.
Then one evening I was watching TV dreaming up new ways to promote my music and an advert came on saying 'Thirty million people can't be wrong'. I spontaneously went to the phone and rang British Airways in London requesting I be put through to the in-flight audio department. Luckily, I reached the operations manager and told her my story and about my music. I was invited to submit a copy of 'Beyond The Clouds' and posted it off the next day.
Five months later I received a fax out of the blue stating that British Airways would like to commission the album for a year to be played on all their long haul flights, world wide and did I have any other releases they could listen to! Well I was flabbergasted. Actually I nearly panicked. I had messed around with a variety of compositions in the interim, but wasn't in the frame of mind to approach the keyboard again. But one morning, I experienced a remarkably warm and content state of mind and I distinctly recall as if I was being shepherded to my studio, thinking, "there is a time for everything ".
Two weeks later I had completed 'The Changing Years'. I sent off the tape and it was accepted for release.
