re: Pat Marr and commercial success from writing music.

I stopped writing and performing music after leaving a successful band in 1975 opting for a secure future with a day job, benefits and retirement. My oldest brother came to visit me for a week or so in 1984 to try and encourage me back into writing. Nothing came from it.
In 1998 he made a more concerted effort bringing me to Nashville. He took me to various recording studios, introduced me to different producers, AR folk & such. He also made sure I met writers who were making a comfortable living off of writing. He was deliberate in introducing me also to writers who continued to live off a single huge hit or two written and released many years ago. By sound investing of their income at the time, they did not have to work a day job. His point was to show me you only need to get it right once.
