Thanks for the kind remarks, Dave! I decided to check out this album first because I love the title. I'll let you know what I think in about 63 minutes!
(Lyrics posted below) A fun song I wrote with Kenneth from songcrafters.org. Its about having fun making music with friends from all over the world, connected by the internet and these great music sites that we all belong to.
I came in from…
Lyrics/Vocals - OldRottenHead (over at Soundcrafters.org). Music - Dave Berry. Recorded on Boss BR-1200, Epi Sheraton, Bass, Synth. Drums are played by me on my new Roland HD-1 (I have had it two weeks, timing is a little shaky, bloody hard this…
I'm gonna have to set aside some time to listen to this entire Lobster Man album. What have I been missing?
Love the lead break on this one - right in yer face.
Good version. I've heard so many covers of this, my favorite one is by New Riders of the Purple Sage. An old country classic originally done by Lefty Frizell but written by someone else.
A frightening thing, to go from being a man to becoming a Lobster-man.
Now Gather around me hearties
For I've got a sad tale to be told
Hoist the colors ye bilge rats
The call rang out, we were off for gold
Grog in our bellies, horn-pipes…
If you'd described this to me I'd have said it'll never work...
... but it does!
It's one of my least favourite Beatles songs (and I'm a big Beatles fan), this has made me reconsider it as a song in itself. Nice one.
I'm trying to bring him round.. but it don't look good.... his gone a funny grey blueey sort colour...... but if i remember right..... he looked that way when he came down the cellar in first place...........Elvis just lays beside him going ummm...ummum... and dribbling it must have been one hell of a night after i left....
Heres a 1st attempt with a Bass i bought of ebay nice and cheap ....Having never played the Bass i haven't a clue.......but hey who cares!!
THE BLING
This is for the ears of the unseen
i know what it is that i have been
somebody said to…
Reg-man has a bass................whooooo hoooooooo. This is a huge development. You are a natural man, that cheap bass sounds fantastic. Sync up the bass to a drum track, POW, magic will occur.
FDR sent me over this superb backer to see what i could do...well i went back in time... to the time of Motorbikes and leathers and living life with no tomorrow...oh what fun it was back then shame we have to grow up!.........well have to sell…
This is a song written for my daughter Rosa, who is 6 months old. It's about indoctrination, but by the look of her when I sing it, I'm not sure she gets it.
Rosa darling Rosa Mae
I need to tell you about their games
Cos sad as it is they…
Dear lord I love this one...............lyrics that cut deep.....vocals as deep adn wide as a raging river.......crystal clear production.....cool song.
Maybe I missed a career scoring for no budget spaghetti westerns, because this is what this reminds me of. Done live a couple weeks ago with the Taylor and a floor full of toys and loopers.
Now this is nice.....real nice.......nice it too "nice" a word for this wonderful sound you have conjured here.....mega-nice. Most looper jams leave me cold, but this is real good, just the way I like it.
More ambient experimentation with my fretless guitar and Roland GR20. This time I used some sounds from the magnetic pickups as well as the midi pickup. Kind of a cheesy synth patch I know, but it was working for me!
I went over to Reg's place the other day and he sort of scared me. He was out on his deck, pitching butts and spilling gin that he couldn't afford. He was a mess and had a crazed look in his eyes. I could tell he was ruminating again about…
Trampled
-
A quickly improvised tune with some stream-of-consciousness lyrics. Written/recorded hastily in the dead of night on Tuesday 11/27 with a short overdub session on Thursday 11/29, when I should have been sleeping.
All basic tracks…
......... and I love the sound of your acoustic, really recorded well........as Reg says, keep the steam flowing.........I am just getting myself set up again after a long year with out too much recording. Trying to get my stream flowing again too.
Comments on Dave Berry's stuff
Love this Dave sweet as a nut and brill playing ,, Dunny
I think you did a great cover of this song. I am a Neil Young fan also! :-)
One of your best vocals to date Dave. Nice work, and fine guitfiddle work.
Sweet tone and cool mix...thanks on talking blues
I like the 'Dave's touch'..! Very nice cover, man!

I like it!
Interesting song!
hey, this is a damn fine tune!
hell yeah dave icame over to see all the fun.
I gotta agree with Henner. It is your best vocal. This one suits your stripped down sound perfectly.
Can't say I've heard this before from you Dave. Without a shadow of a doubt, the best vocal I've heard from you, BB. Must be a Canadian Thing!!

I've heard tell of this many times, but I have to admit I've never got round to listening to it before. Superb :-)

This is one of my all time favourite songs (though I've never heard The Band's version). Great cover - love the backing vocals, really effective.
Bring a bottle with you the doors open ...i cant get up to shut it.......
Great cover by the way

Nice cover Fuzz-man. Great vocal. You gave this one a new twist.

Superb...........so superb...............
Still great after all these years. My first Reg-man song, and I knew, I just knew............................

Oh yeah, thats an improv all right. I feel all weird from listening, like time is going backwards or something. Spooky sounding almost.
Best of the best, Really good. Not enough words to say, great job, great song. I really like the vocal.
That is the deal, right here. Beautiful. simply WOW-ifying.
Wild, wild stuff......I like
Fantastic guys......oh yeah
