(DEDICATION) I am expressing "the Truth" as I see it, feel it, interpret it. I dig deeply into the present moment to find and give voice to Truth through the most evocative words and sound I can excavate from the Cosmic Vastness within. I transcribe what is whispered in my ear. I thank the One Creative Spirit for Songs bestowing this precious gift upon my grateful soul, and for delivering such dedicated virtuosic collaborators and supporters to my side. Thank you Human and Peter Temple for hearing these songs and dressing them up so exquisitely. The process of producing music is a painstaking labor of love. I have the utmost respect for you both, for all the artists who have dared to travel this path before me - and those inspired to follow. The courage it takes to do one's dream is immense! Thank you devoted mother Marlene Kempner, cherished life-mate Stuart Schreiber, beloved partner Kennedy Carr, loyal and encouraging brother Irv Kempner for your passionate faith - continuing to believe in me, to go the distance in helping me to realize myself to transcend all perceived obstacles for so very long. Mostly, I do this for you! Aunt Frances, Dad, Paul Leinthall wherever, whatever you now are, know that the grace of your love lives within me forever.
