Well Graeme I can't speak for these other guys but personally I have 
written hundreds of songs.  And played on several albums by my own 
bands, dozens of albums by other people, as well as movie and TV 
sound tracks and TV commercials.

I don't find learning other people's songs and guitar parts demeaning 
at all.   I find it educational.

But I suppose you have probably done much better and know much better 
than any of us "sad f***er's"  how to move ahead in the biz so do 
please share some of your vast experience and wisdom.
