"Death of A&R??? I'd say more of a re-shuffling of an already pretty well shuffled role. Over the years A&R people have been changing and adapting to what the music industry requires of them and what they as individuals require to be able to survive in the competitive landscape in which they operate."

I had a LONG conversation with Donny B Lord and it took a long time to put this interview together, so please read my in-depth interview with a pop legend in the making. Donny came to me and asked if he could be on my show, so this was a great honor and privilege to have him on my show. Mentored by Jackie Jackson and strongly influenced by Michael Jackson since he was a young boy, this artist is poised to make his mainstream debut this year. \n\nListen to a special music preview from a legend in the making, Donny B Lord: Streaming live at: http://thegreatunknowns.podomatic.com/entry/2010-01-29T07_00_32-08_00 Download here: http://thegreatunknowns.podomatic.com/enclosure/2010-01-29T07_00_32-08_00.mp3 Read my exclusive in-depth interview right here at: http://greatunknownsmusicexpose.blogspot.com/2010/01/birth-of-new-legend-interview-with-dbl.html

Vogue In The Movement is a catchy Pop Indie Rock band from Bakersfield, CA. They released their first EP in 2008 and they ve generated nearly 2 million hits in little over one year.
