Got 2 tracks to finish and my 'Weirdstone' project will be ready for mastering. (see link in sig)
 
Question is; what to do with it then? If anything...
 
A friend of mine says to start a YouTube channel, make some simple vids for a few tracks, get a Facebook page up and running...daily updates..etc.etc.. Haven't even considered trying to sell CD's at all, that appears to be a dead end now.
 
What do you think? Would anyone even be interested these days? I'm not particularly bothered, it was something I've wanted to do for years for my own satisfaction, but it seems a shame to do it all and just leave it to fester on my website.

I am at exactly the same place James. I could even cut a couple of songs from the CD and choose the best 12-13. I will be curious to see what the suggestions will be.

WHY?
Just in case you can't hear me out there.

I played my newest song for my sister. It's a fusion tune and I like it a lot. She listened no more than 15 seconds made a face and walked out. So, I record for myself and what I like. I have no plans to do anything else with the music.

Well OK,  I get that Bill, but by the same token, there's no point me playing anything I do to my wife, because she doesn't like that kind of music. That doesn't mean there aren't other people who would like it, same goes for your music.

I love listening to your music James!
 
My family has no interest in my kind of music. They tell I just don't sound like anybody. I may make a CD for my Grandkids one day but as far as putting something out well I have no plans.
 
Good luck on your music and endeavors! I hope you have great success!!!
