Dedication:
This album is dedicated to my father for six seconds which really mattered to us all this year; Jimi Hendix (40 years man, kiss the sky for us!);
John Lennon (30 years were hard to imagine without you); ... and to my 'beautiful one', mL, may you always shine brightly and fly high above the clouds.
