I am now in the process of taking a lot of time and really giving these gems a good listen to. It is a humbling experience. The talent on these CD's, hence the talent in these precincts, is staggering. From the glitziest, totally arranged, cuts to the kitchen takes, this collection is a time capsule of great importance. When one listens to this collection, and places it in the context of the coming together of a diverse worldwide community in the right place and the right time, then factors in the range of personalities from noted to unknown, the diversity of styles presented, and the coming of age of the internet...........I repeat, it is staggering. Amos, you may be very proud of what you have assembled.

To all contributors, my congratulations and my greatest respect. I am learning daily from your contributions, you have taken me down the road a fair piece. I am proud to be in your company.
