Thank you to all the amazing songwriters, composers, singers and musicians for your part in the recording of this double CD album featuring 21 songwriters of the Fleurieu Peninsula, celebrating the 21st birthday of the Singing Gallery, the music venue fulfilling Dave's dreams. Special thanks to Chris Finnen for exquisite backing on numerous tracks, to Marcus Storrock, touring musician from Perth, co-opted for lead guitar, Tony Wight, stalwart supporter, accompanying with vocal harmonies and harmonica, members of the Willunga Market Choir and Andy McKechnie's class 4 from the Willunga Waldorf School.

Thanks to TAFE lecturers Alan Turner and David Penhaligan for insightful and patient tuition of Dave and Kate in studio recording and for Alan's flute accompaniment. We acknowledge departed friend and poet George Woolmer for poems Roving Star and Rapid Bay, departed Ngarrindjeri Elder Leila Rankine for her song The Coorong and newly departed friend Reno Krause for his song Change the World. Thank you to everyone involved in this wonderful recording.

An album of mainly original lyrics with lively oft times haunting musical accompaniment, ranging in styles through Celtic, traditional, folk & blues. Soul touching encounters with life & death in Bright Star & Heather on my Mountain; thought provoking encounters with sensitive environmental issues in The Lockmaster; lively hilarious encounters in songs of the Australian bush; a moving Aboriginal encounter with nature in The Coorong; the historic encounter between Captains Baudin & Flinders in the subsequently named Encounter Bay & visits to other places of scenic beauty on South Australia's Fleurieu Peninsula.
