I would like to take a moment to tell everyone about my Nashville Experience. Recording in Nashville has been a lifelong dream of mine and without the support of my family and friends, I may never have fulfilled this dream. Thank you to all of you who have been supportive of this effort!
I would like to thank LONNIE RATLIFF, my producer for an outstanding job and VAUGHN LOFSTEAD for his roll in playing guitar and doing the final mix. LONNIE was a great guy to work with because he was able to recognize my style and to bring life into my songs. He has an uncanny ability to find an artist's style and to arrange the music so it compliments each artist he works with. I will forever be grateful for his choice of musicians, sound engineers, and back up singers who worked on my CD. What a wonderful group of talented people. I feel very honored to have worked with all of them. I will recommend LONNIE RATLIFF and his associate VAUGHN LOFSTEAD to anyone who wants to go to Nashville to record. These folks sure provided me with an enjoyable and unforgettable experience! Thanks to Everyone who made this dream come true......Mike
