I'd like to acknowledge the following drummers and other musicians for they're never ceasing good advice, conversation and overall coolness of spirit that they left me with.  

The ones I am referring to are the following:

Eric Gravatt, Lenny White III, Mike White, Omar Hakim, Roy Haynes, Freddy Cruthfield, Dennis Chambers, Jimmy McGriff, Buggs Cochran,  Duke Payne, Jimmy Massoth and all the others who helped in reconstructing me when my spirit was broken.   Also, a very special thanks to the brothers; Stevie Robinson and Henry Buie from "The Israel of God".

Grace, Peace & Blessings on you all, In Jesus' Name.

Your Brother Zim

Special Thanks & Godspeed to the Owens Family & The Shapiro's who have helped me when I was going through some difficult times.

Also a very special thanks to the Black Family, especially Randy who I took a few of my chops from and last but not least, Mr. Dave Freeman aka The Crisco Kid for his support through the years.
