Records (Continued from page IB) She said a band that has been regularly performing and can show it has fans who are interested in buying its recordings will have a much better edge when auditioning for a major label. "They (the major labels) aren't interested in somebody who isn't willing to perform," she said. "If you can't, let's say, get a following in Chicago, how are you going to get one in Los Angeles, New York, or Phoenix? You have to get out there." Rapaport took a hypothetical ex­ ample of a female folk singer whose been playing in local clubs for years. That singer is now thinking of mak­ ing a record. Rapapqrt&ftidif she's smart, the singer will already have a fan list to whom she mails her club dates every six weeks. "Through knowing the radius of her playing area, let's say she figures she can produce and distribute 2,000 to 5,000 recordings in a year's time." By simply using a two-track tape and recording live, Rapaport said the folksinger can produce 500 tapes to sell off the stage -- not costing more than $1.50 each to make. "Some do it for even cheaper than that," she said. Her other suggestions include so­ liciting $5 from each fan, or forming a limited partnership with some of them to make the recording. "The fan is your biggest re-' source," Rapaport said. "If they love you, they'll bug radio stations to play your records. They'll give you money to make records." Rapaport also frowns on the idea of a band making a video. "It costs $7,000 to make a video, so you better figure out what you're going to get in return for making it," she said. She also said it is also worthless because the highly competitive na­ ture of MTV, and the fact that bands get no roylaties even if they get airplay. "There's no pay back until group has sold records," she said. "A lot of times a group will make a video, and not have the basics like a busi­ ness card." Those wishing to buy Rapaport's book by mail can obtain it by send­ ing $15 to her address: Box 1017, Jerome, Ariz., 86331.
