I welcome any corrections, comments or feedback to melacine@hotmail.com, but make sure to put "Stevie Nicks" or something similar in the subject line or the email will probably get filtered out to junk mail.
Here’s how I define a Demo or an Outtake:
Demo: simple music and vocal track; usually just voice accompanied by piano or a drum machine
Outtake: full music and polished vocal track
If you are wondering where you can get any of these songs, please consider joining the Ivory Keys group on Facebook.
