Broadjam Artist: Keith Taylor
Song: All American Girl
Reviewer: Jimmy Joe Lee
Positive Comments: The artist is on the right track. The song structure is good and the theme is strong.The recording, however, doesn’t excite me.
Constructive Comments: The lack of excitement may be due to the key of the recording. I suggest experimenting with key placement. Pushing to a higher key can generate a more exciting vocal sound.I recall a discussion amongst the Eagles. They spoke about the issue of searching for just the right key for a song how important they consider it. The traditional country singer Webb Pearce used to complain about his producer pushing him to a higher key than Webb felt comfortable with. The producers entire rationale was to get more excitement in Webb’s voice. It must have worked as he had several hits.
