"Brother Cisi, My first listen to your music was during a drive to San Francisco in July. I listened --I smiled-- I made comments into the winds of Gaviota. Under the umbrella of Big Sur redwoods I played the ballad twice. Maybe three times. Very soulful.  A warm simpatico can be heard in the interplay with your musicians. Concept, communication, sensitivity, character, lyricism, tone, swing, colors, textures,-- communion with nature-- you have this-- even maturity... (Charles Llyod, October 1996 - excerpt from the CD liner notes)

"You start on track #1: lying in a field of grass, you watch the clouds pass overhead.  From here you fly to the skies with Jolanda, love and energy blowing wildly through your hair. You land on #3, where you find a friend who is always there for you.  Be careful on #4, as doubt creeps in: you’ve got to guess the answer without knowing the question… If you get it right, sing yourself a lullaby, and while watching the moon’s reflection on the snow, float all the way to #6.  Skip a turn, Do Not Pass Go! A wave of panic casts you into the throes of a painful, but illuminating despair… You escape, feeling moved by the sight of the white gorilla of Barcelona before it metls, at #7, and immediately following, you learn to sing with Mr. Wand the magician; then, when you’ve finally arrived at #9, remember when you were young, when you would lie in the grass and watch the clouds at play."   (From the CD liner notes by Emanuele Cisi)
