From Songwriter's Monthly
June 2000 Edition

This handy, little kit contains two cassette tapes and a booklet. It might not sound like much, but on those cassettes and within those pages you will find the secret to the music business and a whole career's worth of information. The cassettes move at lightspeed as everything from "what is a copyright" to "starting your own publishing company" is covered in concise audio segments.

The key to the success of this kit is simple, it is an easy to follow fictitious conversation - a "musician" asks a "lawyer" questions, and the "lawyer" responds. The only problem you might have is there is too much information to absorb in one session. But that's okay because you can listen to the tapes over and over again until you can answer all the questions about trademark and royalties yourself. Still, if you get a little confused, the booklet is there as a guide so you can check your answers.

Admittedly, the approximate three hours of listening material only begins to scratch the surface of the music industry and it's not meant to be "legal advice," just a guide, but what a guide it is. For all aspiring artists thinking they are going to get rich, author Joy R. Butler, Esq. breaks down royalties and shows you exactly how much money you should expect to receive when you sell 100,000 units.

Highly recommended, this kit is put out by Sashay Communications and it sells for $29.95. Check out your finer book stores and if you're having trouble locating this product, visit www.SashayCommunications.com
