This album is dedicated to the world-renowened they (Slider's uncles, Eddie and Glen)
Alex's performance in Broon's Bane is dedicated to Elliot. A special tribute to
the Glaswegian Chorus for the background vocals on Closer To The Heart, nice one folks!

Our personal thank you to the Griffin family for their wonderfulness and to the people
of NASA for the spectacular launch of the Columbia which we were privileged
and thrilled to witness.

We also should include a (loose) translation for the new lyrics to the Danforth and Pape
section of La Villa Stangiato:
"Patty-cake, patty-cake,
Mother's going to buy you shoes,
Father's going to buy you socks,
Baby's going to have red cheeks."
Enough said.

Well, just a few more words! In seven years of touring we have made many friends in many
different places. Some have worked for us, some have cheered us, and some have just
been nice to us. For reasons beyond our comprehension, we have become increasingly more
popular, and hence streched ever more thinly among ever more people. If sometimes we
can't give the time they deserve to our friends and loved ones, we hope that they will
understand and forgive us. After all, we didn't change, everybody else did!
