- Terry's extra track-by-track notes:
Track One: Boozoo and Leona
"Boozoo Chavis was a dear friend of mine. I produced three albums for him. During that time I got to know his whole family really well. After he died his wife Leona and I continued to be friends. She often told me how lonely she was and how much she missed Boozoo. Years later when a friend of mine told me that she had now passed, by saying, 'Leona has joined Boozoo,' I wrote this song instantly. They were a great couple, true folk heroes." -Terry
Track Two: Keep This Love Goin'
The title track was written by Terry, Scott, and Pete.
Track Three: I'm Satisfied
Written and sung by Pete. Recorded in Louisville, KY.
Track Four: Here I Am
"During a walk in the park one day, I wrote three songs. Two of them are 'Here I Am,' which Scott helped me finish, and 'Sweet and Petite.' Tom plays drums on both." -Terry
Track Five: Let Go
"This is a song that I had been struggling with. I had written the music and one verse, but couldn't finish it. One night as I heard Pete sing, I realized his voice was perfect for this song. I asked him to sing it but I still didn't have it finished. I tried and tried, but had some kind of block. Eventually I asked Pete to try. His contribution to that song was way more than I expected. Funny thing is, that song wasn't going to be finished until I let go." -Terry
Track Six: Gone With the Wind
"I've always loved Dave Brubeck's recording of this song. The very first time Scott and I got together at my house, I played it for him. When we started to record Keep This Love Goin', it was Scott's idea to do the song. That's his arrangement. Conrad and Pete have really got the groove on this." -Terry
Track Seven: Sweet and Petite
See Track Four.
Track Eight: My Life With You
This is a song of Terry's that he had recorded as an instrumental with former Sun Ra Arkestra member Tyrone Hill and Dave Gordon, which was used for the Duplex Planet Hour CD. It turned out to be one of Scott's favorite songs, and when they met, he told Terry how much he wanted to sing it. Together they wrote the lyrics and through the talent of engineer Norm Demoura, the original tracks of Tyrone and Dave were added to this recording.
Track Nine: In Every Dream
"I like to sing along with motors. My espresso machine has a motor that produces a pure G. So while I was making an espresso, I sang harmony with it, which soon turned into Tchaikovsky's 'Concerto in B-flat Minor.' I reached for a note and it felt like country music to me, so I decided to write some words." -Terry
Track Ten: The Animal Life
Written by Scott and recorded in Madrid, Spain. Pete played the bass and engineered the session simultaneously.
Track Eleven: Talk
Recorded in Louisville, KY. "When I see a harpsichord, I have to play it." -Terry
Track Twelve: Red's Piano
"Piano Red is one of my favorite musicians. I love his style and I might be the only guy that does it. Whenever I was on tour in Atlanta, I always made sure to go catch Red whenever I could. One night in 1973 he told me he had two weeks off coming up, and so I invited him to come play with us in the northeast. He stayed at my house for a few days and while there, he sat at my piano and showed me this song. I never forgot it." -Terry
