Bernie –
 
Over the, years so many have come and gone, each in their own way playing a part. I wish to acknowledge them all for their contribution and thank them for whatever it was they provided, be it pleasure, pain, retribution or inspiration. Even the darkest hearts have made me a better man. To those who never made it through and whose souls ascended too soon know I still carry you in my heart. Michelle, Cynthia, John & RT you will always sleep with angels

This album is dedicated to my family and friends.

Some of you are JB, Weenie, Play D, Fleece, Milster & the Ghetto Pup. Randall, Cam, G Man, Doc Gaffney & the PBR. Zoe O, Hayley Mam, Nonna Sparks, the Pit Master & Man O' Man. Big Mikey Nance, Senor Sanchez, Juanito, AI, Sandi & Samson.

And finally the fabulous Trout, the ever-present Gunner, Nub, Bunk and the Banana and Suge's very own H-Bomb and the Critter.
