Special thanks to Blair Hardman for his ears and great sense of proportion in sound and skillful use of his tools at Zone Recording, Cotati, California. Thanks to Heaven 'n Earth : Claire Victor for her vocal arranging skills along with Veronique Della Bruna, and Steve Berry who blended so well together on Fire Within and The Quest and contributed lyric suggestions and creative input. I also want to take note of Claire's great and intuitive improv towards the end of Fire Within. Thanks to Kendrick Freeman, Percussionist Extraordinaire, especially for his conversation between drums and congas on Crusin' With Monk as well as his poignant use of textures and subtle rhythmic variations on Colors of Fall and Frederic Visits The Club. Thanks to Bob Simmons for his wonderfully silky, smoky vocal skills on My Foolish Heart and to Craig Stull for his diabolically friendly voice of a greedy One Percenter on The Wall Street Rag. Thanks to Brooke Harris Wolff for her lyric insights on The Wall Street Rag ( look for more songs by Brooke and Grant in the future) as well as Billy (William D.) Wolff for his production help recording the vocal on The Wall Street Rag at Rich Eames' Studio in Los Angeles. Thanks to Jennie Houts for her creative album cover and photography and also to her husband, Gazzali Jaleel, for his web consultation. I especially want to thank my wife, Jill, for her encouragement of my music throughout my whole life and the loving family members I am so lucky to have been blest with.
