Special acknowledgement and thanks to Bengt "Bechr" Berger, musician and lover of music, for introducing me to Suso, for making his home in Accra available in which to do the recording, and for infinite patience and assistance during our correspondence between Accra and New York in clarifying and obtaining information for the liner notes.
