A Special Thanks to all the musicians who took part in putting this album together. You guys are great. Also, to Bobby Rivas who worked with me unselfishly many hours of the day keeping this recording in order and in good taste. Muchas Gracias Bobby.

Also, special thanks to Jesus Alejandro, El Jeno. I mean it. This man never ceases to amaze me. He plays piano, flute, tres, timbales, congas, bongo, cowbell, bass, guitar, maracas, guiro, etc., etc., etc. He also sings and writes songs and arranges and orchestrates. "Wow!" from El Padrino, "Gracias, Jesus." Last, but not least, a thanks to Bill Lazeus for being so patient with me in mixing this album.

I would like to dedicate this album to all the fans of mine that have been dancing to my music and keeping me going for so many years. Also, to the people who dedicate themselves to keeping salsa and musica latina alive and well here in L.A. and around the world. And to the radio and T.V. personalities, keep up the good work, Guys and Gals, we love you. You know who you are!
