Album Notes

In the summer of 2005,we played a gig soooo-oooooh-oh!BAD,
{this drunk kept yelling another singer's name
ALL NIGHT!, & a loca-muchacha-conga-playa from
the audience, kept re-tuning the drums!..whack!
..?...turn the key...WHACK,.....whack,WHACK!...
turn the key som'more.....WHILE WE ARE PLAYING!!!
....QUICK!!somebody STOP!her....}
that my drummer quit!

Yes, I cried. I also finally gave up.....gained weight,got depressed....you know....the whole drill.....as I began to seriously contemplate exactly how?!I was gonna support the farm when all I know how to do is sing.
Enters M @ ZEVISGIRL, an independent production company run
by a most remarkable graphic artist, who announces that it is time for me to record w/my Boyz'n'Esperanza!,THE CD that will put us on the 'financial' map.

I would like to thank M. When I was on my knees,you rescued me....when I had fallen through the big-dream's floor,you took me to the final level.

I would like to thank my band. I don't do this w/out U Guys!!so DEAL!!!

& I would like to thank the Wolf, Pedro Ito ,for still!! being down w/me after 4 years of no REAL money & terrible gigs!
Lieblings! Beijos, Alida'LaGringa'Rohr
