AMAZING

It's so interesting to read about how things were done in the music industry 30 years ago... and to see that at the end only the way we do some things have changed, but the essence is still the same. It's amazing to see how Ms. Watson made it through this business. Really encouraging. I guess it'll make anyone want to go out there, but as the title says: You can'¿t just get there... it takes a lot of work, strengh and determination. Thank you, Vernice!!
