Album Notes

\"This musical project was created to honor Tokitae, aka \"Lolita\", an orca captured from her home in the Puget Sound of Washinton State in 1970, who has remained in captivity at the Miami Seaquarium ever since. She was given the native name, \"Tokitae,\" after her controversial capture from her L pod family and prior to being shipped off to Miami where she was given her stage name Lolita. May the music serve as an oppurtunity for Tokitae\'s, \"Lolita\'s\" voice to be heard and to inform us humans that we have choices. There comes a time when the choices we have made in the past no longer serve the present or future. What are our choices now, regarding these intelligent creatures who serve us, by remaining in captivity for a lifetime? I believe the time has come to choose freedom. By choosing freedom for Tokitae, \"Lolita\", we are choosing freedom from and for ourselves.\"

The cd was exactly like I thought it would be and hoped for. The music and lyrics were fantastic. I listened to it again and again that first day. The artists voice was incredibly clear and displayed a very wide range of notes with great depth. I was quite moved.
