(Album cover photos from left: Jocelyn Butler Shoulders (Cello) • Lynne Jordan (Chicago Diva) • Toronzo Cannon (Alligator Records blues star) • Ernie Watts (Jazz saxophone icon and 2x Grammy winner) Jaime Gorgojo (Violin - Madrid) • Frank Orrall (Front man of Poi Dog Pondering) • Me (harmonica/compositions) • Tracy Nelson (2x Grammy nominee) • Chihsuan Yang (Violin - Taiwan) • Cantor Pavel Roytman (from Ukraine) • Rose Armbrust (viola) • Kalyan “Johnny Bongo” Pathak (Tabla - India) • Marcella Detroit (From Shakespear’s Sister and wrote the hit “Lay Down Sally”)
