Tempest 25 [CD]

25 years ago, before Tempest was released, and all that would follow, if you had asked me what I wanted to do with my life, I would have told you that I was happy in my solitude. I didn't want to be in the public eye.

But I was wrong.

The public, my fans, have lifted me up in so many ways. They have given me the freedom to follow my muse, to chase my dreams. They opened the world to me. Before Tempest, I'd never seen the rest of Canada, I never dreamed I would one day see Asia, South America, Africa, let alone tour them. So many journeys, so many adventures! My fans have opened doors to me, given me the opportunity to meet and perform with my musical heroes. Without my fans, none of this would have happened.

Words are not enough to thank all the people who have been with me on this crazy, beautiful journey, these last 25 years. The many, many musicians, managers, agents, photographers, art directors, engineers, and of course, friends and family. I love and thank you all. If I had to do it all again, I wouldn't change a thing.

I'm excited to see what adventures the next 25 years will bring…

— Jesse Cook
