Acknowledgements
Brad Baker, who came for a day and stayed for a week, arranged ‘Thirty Years,’ ‘Last Catch,’ ‘Keep Your Luck Alive,’ and ‘This Ringing in My Ear (Midnight Song),’ as well as the strings and horns, conducted, and jumped up and down a lot. ‘Sticks and Stones’ and ‘Goodbye Jason’ were arranged by Terry Minogue; ‘Dreaming in Colour’ (or ‘Color’ if you prefer) was arranged by Chris Dedrick; ‘Ballerinas’ was arranged by Carl. The other arrangements and vocal arrangements happened under semi-controlled spontaneous circumstances somewhere between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, on land. I believe Ed is Pinball Champ. J. Don wins Best Costume.

Once again, my gratitude to Brad for the inspiration; brothers Carl and Jim; Bob and Lance for knocking over the music stand; Doug and Steve for the Scotch; Walter for not just tying the loose ends together, but making macramé out of them; Gerry Lacoursiere and Michael Godin for their undying faith; Don and Ed for the wit and/or wisdom; and Brenda — and everyone who energized this project.
