Memories of the songs’ geneses—as one who has heard the album may think—ran the gamut. I’m very grateful to the folks at New West Records for each involving me so fully in compiling the fabric for this deluxe vinyl subject, and for the gorgeous version they’re releasing. To have my songs and the tales behind them handled with such care and out of a way of affection is one thing I neither count on or take with no consideration. I’m so blissful about how this turned out. I truthfully don’t assume a extra full Overcome by Happiness ‘experience’ might have been put collectively.
