Album Notes

Children of Fortune is a virtual group featuring performer Mitch Harris with lyrical (and sometimes background vocal) assistance from his sister Jill Lynn Jackson.

Mitch is a Conservatory drop-out turned electrical engineer and later intellectual property attorney, who still lives to create and produce his own music. Jill Lynn Jackson is a music educator in California and has raised three children - including a background vocalist on this album.

All in My Head is a first studio album, recorded in Phoenix, Arizona from Fall of '93 until the Spring of '94. The lyrical style is mystical, with a musical style that ranges from power rock to 80's pop to country to jazz and back again. Each tune stands alone as a "painting in a gallery collection." Each song different, but tied together with the elusive thread of a common spiritual/philosophical theme.

Mitch played all of the instruments and sang, while a variety of drummers (Don Kinkade, Gary Ray and Mike Barton) provided the initial backbone for the effort. Vocalists Jill Lynn Jackson, Heather Van Buren and Vikki Rae Jordan provided female background vocals and saxphonist Bill Lieske lent his support on a ballad. The album was engineered by Tim Hunnicut and Bob "Willard" Henke of Hunicutt Recording Studios and Reggie Langendorfer at Bakersfield Music School and Recording Studio and mastered by Rick Knepper of Wasted Potential Productions, Fort Worth, Texas.

Children of Fortune is working on forthcoming releases in a new studio in Northeastern Georgia and constructed especially for the purpose of producing their work.
