I purchased Aretha Franklins "Chain of Fools" a few weeks ago for an audition. After downloading it I was able to sing along with the music player to rehearse instead of having to hire an accompanist. Once I arrived to the audition, the accompanist provided was able to easily follow the shee music and produced what I thought was a great audition. I didntt get the part, but I felt confident in knowing that I was prepared and performed to my best ability. I could not have done that without having found this particular song in the correct key while being able to rehearse it countless times.
