I was, I hope, a pioneer. But I cannot and will not become a martyr. Where can I go from here? Regular press refused advertising because it was a gay album, not spoofy, but for real. Regular distributors turned off to it. Major labels refused to pick it up. Gay bars expressed interest in selling the album, but when contacted later there was no response. Copies were sent to all the major talk shows, and even those whose private lives are not even suspect in circles where they dabble in call boys, DARED not let me appear, because of the top brass of the networks. Even the original record producer cut the statue of David at the groin because of 'public opinion' and the song 'David' was retitled 'Michael' because of his fear that business associates might have thought he flipped and had swung over the line.
