Thank You(s)

Thank you to the amazing musicians who contributed to this album. They include:

Skip Fischer: Drums. Former drummer for Chuck Berry, master Latin drummer, and more.

Manuel Kaufmann: Bass. Big band director/arranger extraordinaire, Berklee School of Music teacher

Roberto Ramos: Bass. Master Texas musician who has appeared in over 200 albums

Brian Rost: Stand-up bass. Local specialist in country, bluegrass, folk - as steady as they come

Paul Benzaquin: Vocals, hand drums. Multi-instrument specialist and master music teacher. Paul convinced me to go into teaching way back when. Best advice ever.

Emilie Faucher: Vocals. Multi-style local singer with a special talent for drama.

Hal Katzman: Vocals. Multi-style five-octave-range singer who never misses a note. A phenom. Hal is also a cantor.

David Kinniburgh: Photographer, wilderness man hiker. Nobody else could have taken that front-album picture.

Elliot Gilfix: Photographer. My nephew has won so many photography awards that it is getting boring. The back-cover picture was perfect.
