The first two days of recording are finished, and I have completed the first mix! I am overwhelmed listening to the musicianship, arrangements and spirit of the music. Special thanks to all the musicians for donating their time, astonishing talents, and endless energies that went into making this such a success.
Manfred Knoop of Knoop Studios deserves extra special thanks for donating two days of studio time that made this all possible. The studio sounds unbelievable, and everyone loved recording there.
