"A note to my friends and fans: I'm putting the pen to paper one last time to say thank you for all your support over these many years. After many years on the road and writing music, I've decided to stop touring and recording. It's hard to explain why but I hope you will understand. I had a good run but I think it's over. It's just too much for too little these days. 'Made in the Shade' explains it as best as I know how. Please except my love and gratitude for all the years you have given me yours. Many, many thanks to Gunter Pauler at Stockfisch Records.

All my best wishes for you and yours, Sara"

Guitars, exotic instruments including the harp form an ideal backdrop for the singer – with Sara K. sounding articulate to the highest degree, her performance mature, completely lacking any harshness whatsoever. This is passion in control. Gentlemen – get hit by that power of a heavyweight champion coming in a velvety disguise. The album’s 12 tracks are a quite delightful mix, with one song especially outstanding in its beauty: „made in the shade“, devoted to Sara K.‘s fellow artist and kindred spirit Chris Jones who died some years ago. Super-Audio-CD incl. 5.1-surround mix!
