PHOENIX is a commemoration of the Centennial Anniversary of Arizona's statehood 1912-2012. It showcases the historical facts and unique people who contributed significantly to the early development of the State of Arizona. Peace, security, and tranquility of our nation is based on the obedience to the U.S. Constitution and the Rule of Law - modeled by our forefathers. Good life in these songs is rooted in biblical beliefs, moral and Christian values - modeled by Christ. If obeyed, these two models in our society are the daily hope and promise of a cultivated society, which protects everybody from the President to the common man. The birth of Phoenix and Arizona is comprised of historical aspects, as well as contemporary diversified reflections, feelings and wishes of Americans. The obedience to the Bible and the Rule of Law is a blessing of a good cowboy with strong character. Ignorance of the U.S. Constitution and biblical aspects leads to cowardliness, anarchy, violence, crime and decay of our nation. Protecting the West should be the primary objective of top American officials who frequently ignore the Voice of America and the founding principals of this land. In times of multiple and continuous attacks against American representatives abroad, I want to boost the awareness of need for increased national security. I pay my tribute to all American citizens. As a legal immigrant to the United States of America, I would like to thank the society for offering me a "fair game" in the free world. After defecting from Czechoslovakia in 1984, I feel blessed that I was accepted by the United States. Back in my homeland there was for decades a lingering of fear of show trials against conservative representatives of other than communistic political parties. The show trials were political lawsuits initiated by the Czechoslovakian communistic government in the early fifties. The hard-liners of the regime were suing anybody who was in political opposition to the federal government. Since 1985, when I moved to Arizona, I have lived a peaceful life for almost thirty years. I am happy to obey the Rule of Law and appreciate the U.S. Constitution. My songs are my humble gratitude to the American Government for offering me a new homeland free of federal lawsuits. Here I offer my little contribution of peaceful songs to Arizona and the American Musical heritage. American patriots, thank you, I love you all!
