"In the July 1988 issue of Guitar Player Magazine Brad Jones was announced as the winner of Guitar Player Magazine's Soundpage Competition. Brad recorded his song "Back Porch Boogie" on a cheap K-Mart cassette tape and a boom box, entered the contest on a whim and won. Brad received a Gold Record for this song and it also earned him an invitation to play at the Chet Atkins Appreciation Society Convention in Nashville. A vinyl record of Brad's winning song was included with the magazine."
