I’d like to thank all of you for listening to our music and also I’d like to thank: Narvel, for taking care of everything so I don’t have to worry; Tony Brown, for being so much fun to work with and for being so good at what you do; Vince Gill, for being my friend and agreeing to sing with me again; Linda Davis, for your beautiful voice; All of the musicians, for their ideal, enthusiasm, and talent; Joe McGlohon & Terry Crisp, for sharing your stage talent with me on this album; To everyone at Starstruck Inc., Jet & Farms - for being so good and so great to work with; To Al Teller, Bruce Hinton & everyone at MCA Records, I’m proud & happy to be part of your family, you’re the best!; To Shelby, for keeping the smile on my face, I love you little boy!; Last but by no means least, to the writers, God has truly blessed you with a gift to touch people. I’ll get to see it every night on stage - the reactions on people’s faces. I’ve done my best to present your songs the way you’d like.
This album is the 2nd chapter to “For My Broken Heart”. It’s the continuation and you’ll hear it best in the songs “Will He Ever Go Away” and “Lighter Shade Of Blue”.
I hope all our hearts have healed a little and continue to grow in life and love.
Whatever happens - you decide. And with the help of God, “It’s Your Call”
