This collection is called BEST because it’s my best. I didn’t want to do the obvious thing and simply put out a “Greatest Hits” record as anyone can do that.
I always felt I could “do” them better and bring something to them that I’d missed, update the production and make them more vital. And besides, a retrospective was a nice way of looking at my work. I wanted to connect the dots as much for myself as for anyone who might hear it. It’s been a long career and this is the story–BEST yet actually. The story is far from over.
