the origin of the title:
The title of this album was inspired by an incident that
occurred while I was touring as keyboardist with the band, Alabama, during their
Farewell Tour in 2004:
I
was hanging with a friend before the show at a table in the catering room backstage. The room was full of show folk eating,
talking, milling about. The door to the
catering room opened and in strutted a little girl of about 3 years old, sporting
a leather jacket and sunglasses with pink, star-shaped lenses. She stopped, looked around the room with
swagger and pride, clapped her hands and exclaimed, “Yay! Everybody, Yay!”. After a brief
interval of stunned silence, the crowd in the room cheered, and I thought,
“Now THAT’S the way to enter a room! Elated that everyone is present, and filled with an unwavering assumption that
they are there just for you.” - Chris Walters

Buy this Cd--Walters is a crazy genius! Take the journey--it might be Art Deco New York or Gothic Paris but just close your eyes and be transported to another place and another time. Just like the Gypsy Fortune Teller in "Do You Really Want To Know?" Walters conjures up a whole lot of magic. Buy this CD for the music or just buy it for the joy of opening the cover (it's a fun surprise--as is the music)!
Yay! Everybody Yay! Hanson
