Special Thanks to all my wonderful musician friends who played on this collection. Everyone played so great, deep thanks to all of you. To Robert, for going several extra miles for me, and as usual, surpassing our previous recording quality, and for the album title, Thinking Out Loud, which sounded a lot less snobby than Audible THoughts or Audible Art. To Taguchi, for all your time invested and for reminding me that I am a jz guitarist because sometimes I forget. To all the staff at JVC Music (Les, Jeff, Cary, Sam, Raymy, Alvert and Larry), for all the positive feedback on the album. To Mario and Sherri at Milagro. To Lori, for the great cover and photos. To Nancy, for helping me select cool duds for the over. To Joe Hesse at Musicians Support Services. To my little viper, for your inspiration and patience. To Libby, for your beautiful voice and good vibe while writing the music, welcome to the family. And love to my family in Australia, Mum, Dad, Nunz, Maureen, Loz, Paul, Max, and the rest of the ever-expanding Gambale family. Last, but not least, thanks to all my fan [SIC]! I think this album throws another curve stylistically at you, hope you like it! I ve [SIC] been inspired lately by the works of Dali, Magritte and Gaudi. I dedicate this album to these three incredible artists for the originality and timeless gift they gave the world through their art and architecture. THe world is definitely a better place because of them.

Love and Peace,

Frank

Mastered using the 20-Bit K2 Super Coding System.
Developed by JVC, the 20-Bit K2 Super Coding System integrates three important digital audio functions:
1. The JVC 20-Bit, 128 times over-sampling high resolution analog to digital converter
2. The JVC K2 Super Coding resolves the high resolution 20-Bit signal to the 16-Bit compact disc format while retaining the integrity of the low level information.
3. The JVC K2 Interface effectively eliminates time base jitter in the digital data stream.
The end result is a compact disc of extraordinarily higher resolution than that of today s conventional compact discs. The 20-Bit K2 Super Coding System allows the listener to hear every subtle sonic nuance, from the breathing of the musicians to the explosive crack of the snare drum. Enjoy!
