Hey there! Had no idea you were a songwriter. Nice work-- your talent seems to have no limitations.I write country and spiritual and little rock as well. I am in Burbank a lot because my daughter is there. If you are ever interested in a co-write session, let me know. You may want to listen to my stuff first. I would recommend the song Salvation if you only have time for one.
thank you.... eo, r
ROBBY, WE NEED LYRICS ON THIS ONE! EITHER UPDATE IT ON BROADJAM OR EMAIL TO: HHHEWLETT@GMAIL.COM. I'LLCUT AND PASTE IT TO A PDF FILE FOR THE JUDGES.
Hi Robby! Congrats on winning the Broadjam song of the month last month. I just won this month and saw you on here. Great to be in such auspicious company. I loved 'Bang my drum" -- very sexy and atmospherec.
Thank you. You're very kind.... hard to make money with songs... really hard... Good luck to you! With respect, robby
Thanks Robby. I appreciate it. I also want you to know how much I admire you as an actor and as a genuine class act. We're of the same generation and I watched your acting career as I was beginning my own. "Ode to Billy Joe" and "Death be not proud" meant a great deal to me as a teen, and "Lucky Lady" was a lot of fun. Your onscreen persona was always an inspiration and a welcome presence. Thanks for your inspiration.
Thank you. You are a good, good soul. Thank you. eeoo, robby
