I had a hard time convincing students that they were going to North Africa to understand the North Africans, not to understand themselves. ↗

I have a really hard time writing my own lyrics for this record, because one, I had to write so many and also I was kind of perplexed by the idea of how I was going to sing and play... because at that time, we hadn't really thought about asking someone else. ↗
