Mastered at The Lodge. Booking for The Agency Group. Lyrical References: Tracks A2 & C2 and album title inspired by stories told by M.R. Bawa Muhaiyaddeen (Ral., my love you). Track A3 based on folk tradition of King David (A.S.) and some Hebrew Bible. Our favorite lyric on track A4, "Those who know don't talk, those who talk don't know," from Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching. End of track B1 adapted from the New Testament, Christ (A.S.) in Gethsemene. Opening line of track B2 (along with MANY words from older songs) taken from Coleman Barks' translations of Rumi, thank you brothers - we owe you a curry one day! Final line of track C1 inspired by "Aaron's Song: Man is God in the Forgetting of Himself" from Shaikh Muhaiyaddeen (Ral., salam wa 'alaikum, dear friend). Title of track C3 from Daniel Ladinsky's rendition of Hafiz. All poor and silly words for Bawa and Jesus & all the prophets and saints and angels, Qutbs, lights, and anyone who has lost their faith in God. All songs © 2009 Jesus, Have Mercy on Me, a Sinner (ASCAP) & Thirsty Moon River Publishing (ASCAP). (P) & © 2009 Tooth & Nail Records. Manufactured by Tooth & Nail Records. Distributed by EMI CMG Distributuion. Side D contains no music but has an etching.
