Special Thanks:
These concerts were a joy, mostly because of the beautiful attitude of these musicians. Besides the inherent talent involved, they each exhibit an enormous amount of caring, which makes all the difference. All my thanks to Steve, Eric, Lee, Anthony, George, Tiger, Rubens, and to my brother Don. Also a special thanks to Michael Franks and to Mari Nakamoto for rounding out these concerts with their beautiful talent.
