THE IDEA TO COMPOSE THE MUSIC CAME FROM OUR NEIGHBOR AND FRIEND CHAZ MENA WHO WAS DEVELOPING A VAMPIRE MOVIE TO BE FILMED AROUND THE SAME TIME IN THE UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE CITY OF TRINIDAD, CUBA. WHILE SIPPING SOME WINE OVER THE FENCE, WE CHATTED ABOUT THE CONCEPT AND I TOLD CHAZ THAT I WOULD TAKE A SHOT AT COMPOSING SOME MUSIC ABOUT CUBA.

THANKS TO KEVIN FULLEN, MY MUSICAL PARTNER AND NOISE NEW YORK COLLABORATOR. WE STARTED WORKING TOGETHER IN 1978 AND CONTINUE TO MAKE MUSIC WHEN KEVIN VISITS MIAMI A FEW TIMES A YEAR.

BOB HOLMES AND JENIFER SMITH PROVIDED ME WITH INVALUABLE FEEDBACK FOR THIS ALBUM AND OTHER PROJECTS THAT ARE IN THE PIPELINE.

THANK YOU GARY LEIB (1955-2021). I MET YOU AT NOISE IN 1979 WITH THE RUBBER RODEO AND WITNESSED IN AWE FOR OVER 40 YEARS YOUR INCREDIBLE TALENTS AS A CARTOONIST AND MUSICIAN.

THANKS TO KRAMER WHO MAKES EVERYTHING SOUND BETTER.

AND LOVE TO MY WIFE LAURENCE WHO GROUNDS ME WHILE INSPIRING AND CHALLENGING ME TO GREATER GOALS.
