"I Will Die A Poor Man" was written and recorded in a basement studio in an old house in Pennsylvania with only an acoustic guitar and a 4-track tape recorder. It gained local attention and won spins on WXPN; a nationally recognized leader in Triple A radio. On the heals of the success of the song, Ken and his then band "Tragik" included it in their first EP and re-recorded the song with accompanying drums, rhodes keyboard, bass, lead guitar, and backing vocals.  Luckily, a friend introduced Ken to Grammy-winning engineer, Ted Greenberg, who then mixed and mastered the song. "I Will Die A Poor Man" has since become a staple in Ken's live shows.
