Noodling around on my guitar one day, I started thinking about the role of my mother in my musical life. To the family, she brought music. She tried the piano lessons, didn’t work. But she didn’t give up. When school presented the opportunity to start playing instruments (I chose flute to be surrounded by girls) she pushed me through those early days (filled with tears, hyper-ventilation and dizziness).

My father, not to be left out, gave me the technical genes. Without his influence, I probably wouldn’t have figured out all the recording tech (in fact, those personality traits probably figure prominently in my weirder music).

But these notes, as sappy as they may be, are for mom.
