Dear friends
This album has been simmering slowly in our minds over the past four years, and now finally we have brought together the best of our musical offerings, our “Love Medicine”. The collection includes songs inspired by interesting people and places, like “Nothing but a Song” and “Happy Song”, inspired by Milton Nascimento and Joao Bosco, our Hebrew version of a Gilberto Gil song called “Shalom- A paz” (all three our tribute to Brazil and its great artists) and a gorgeous new tune by Pat Metheny that I wrote lyrics to (a poetic sketch of the man and his genius!), featuring his gorgeous playing. Thank you Pat, our one and only!!
We are also honored to have a duet with the wonderful Spanish singer-songwriter/poet/philosopher/painter Joaquin Sabina, whom Gil and I admire greatly: the song “You” was written after an inspiring meeting with him at his amazing home in Madrid, where he has 30,000 books!! He translated my lyrics into Spanish, recreating the song in his own inimitable style. Gracias Joaquin!
The album also includes two additional covers: one is the great classic Bangles song “eternal flame”, co-written by (and dedicated to!) our friend Billy Steinberg. The other is a less known but absolutely lovely song by Bobby McFerrin, whom we had the honor of sharing the stage with last year.
“Don’t be afraid of anything” is dedicated to my children…Ayehli, Enea and Yum. In “look at the moon” I tried to finally fulfill that famous Paul Simon lyric I’ve known since my teens: “if you wanna write a song about the moon, if you wanna write a spiritual tune …just do it, write a song about the moon.” :-). “Little star” is my first attempt to ever to write a song about the Holocaust. I don’t think I can do better as a songwriter than this song. I have seldom felt as proud of any piece of my own work.
“Deep as your eyes” is a song that has been hiding with Gil and me for many years, and here, it has finally come into the light…through the tears, what joy…
The last song on the album is our message to all of you, and the torch by which we live our lives: “love your brother, and sister, as you love yourself”.
Hope you enjoy :-)
