Cover inspired by Norman Rockwell's Painting for the cover of 'Saturday Evening Post', April 6, 1946, Entitled "The Charwomen."

On August 14, 1978, while returning home from a Kansas concert, John Hoffert, a 14 year old from El Paso, Texas was involved in a car accident that cost him his sight. Being that Kansas was the last visual experience that John will ever have — we dedicate this album to him.
