| The producer wishes to thank Samantha Moore for her inspired lyrics |
For the inspiration that never stops
we both thank our jazz foremothers and forefathers. Nancy dedicates
this album to her mom for believing in her. Glen thanks his
wife Samantha whose lyrics, insight and impatience coaxed this
duo into the nineties. We both thank Randall Jamail, David Thompson
and all the staff at Justice Records for recognizing and encouraging
us.
- Nancy King and Glen Moore

Thanks to Alexander, Tisa, James, Don,
Josh, Lillie, and Patricia, whose support keeps the home fires
alive and well during my many extended absences.
- Glen Moore

This record is about two pregnant people
from the land of big timber. They're in the third tri-mester
of a musical imminence that is not easy to describe. The impending
bloom before you sings of mountain greenery, useless landscapes,
hotels of heatbreak and the rootless imagery of a happy American
West. It is sonically planted somewhere in the distant future
and past. For your listening pleasure, I simply suggest that
you relax, breathe deeply, boil some water, and make sure you've
got plenty of clean towels around.
- David A. Thompson, producer.
