| We've got some folks we'd like to thank: The incomparable Joe Trainer for his guitar work and vocals. We could not have done this album without him; the lovely Miss Jessie Daumen provided beautiful fiddle work on "Spurs" and delivered flawless harmony on "Battle Hymn of the Republic". A hearty thanks to Walt Disney World where our group was born and deep appreciation to Cypress Gardens Adventure Park where the act was "fine-tuned". There are others who need mentionin' with sincere gratitude from us: Thanks Dean, Troy, Jason, Billy, Brian, and John Henry. Susan, thank you for loaning us your bass fiddle. Also, thanks to Mary and Paul at Lewis Music. And finally, Gibson Guitars and Hohner Harmonicas (endorsements). Deep thanks for the patience, support and inspiration of Bonnie, Jody and Lisa. You make us more than what we are. And, finally, Dad wants to thank Maya Pearl Durham for her 'debut' performance on "Battle Hymn of the Republic". This is our music, we love it, and we're proud of it. We hope you have as much fun listenin' to it, as we had recording it. -Jim Rast |
