Endless Blue Skies vol.2 - Time To Remember Album
I am a delighted to announce that I have finally finished work on my new album and I am really happy with the result. It is an album I have wanted to make for many years but have not had the time. I have long felt the need to make an offering of the Heart Essence of the Dharma in a format that people can keep for themselves and return to, again and again without the need to always go online.
I have worked with a number of amazing musicians to make these albums possible and it is the very best of the material I have spent the last twenty years sharing on retreat.
I hope you enjoy these offerings which I believe is a precious treasury for all of you who are committed to your own journey with Meditation and Dharma. As such it is the very best of the material I have spent the last 20 years sharing. Even I return to many of the tracks often to keep inspiring me and reminding me of what is most important.

Appreciation
It has been an aspiration of mine to make this album for some years now. Only now have I found the time to focus single-mindedly upon it.
Bringing together this collection of Dharma in a way that I hope might reach many others has been a deep journey. Creating a pertinent thread that speaks to a broad range of people in these extra-ordinary times has itself been a challenge. I have tried to find a balance between the inspiring, the motivational and the necessarily challenging aspects of the Dharma in a hope it might galvanise some of you towards making the changes in your lives that somewhere inside you are already longing to make.
My hope is to encourage you and give you sufficient confidence and faith in both yourselves and life more broadly so that you will follow your own hearts. I know that when you can listen carefully to your heart each one of you already knows what to do. The path out of suffering is by its nature challenging and so I urge you to keep encouraging each other along the way. I sincerely hope that the material contained in this selection will help light the way for you for years to come. Keep returning as time passes. You will find that each time you do, it speaks to a deepening place within you.
I cannot begin to express how magical was the process of bringing all of this together. The way that the amazing contributors seemed to come up with exactly the right response at the right time. The musical pieces that form the backdrop are the result of a truly global effort. Mixing them and weaving them together has been a big part of my own journey with this album.
A hug heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone involved. In particular :
Dave Tawfik (Cairo): Who has worked with me throughout with the arrangement and composition of many of the pieces on the album. He has been an endless source of amazing material that seemed to hit the spot. It has been a total pleasure to work with him again. He has even inspired me to get my Duduk out of retirement. dreamfullofzen@yahoo.com
