Morning light on the mountain stream,
catches the eye of the child within his dreams.
The day begins, present and aware,
of all the beauty, he plays without a care.
Castles on the riverbank, a choir of birds in song,
picking spring flowers in…
Hi Dave , just listened to Castles on the Riverbank , very impressive indeed my musical buddy , a very good song , full of tight guitar playing , and a vox that is getting more and more confident , well done mate ,
definately will give the whole album a listen now
Regards Rob ( Facemask 93 )
We call this Beat-box ghosts (the prog-fu mix). A fun collab between Osckilo and myself. Osckilo had this song he did called Ghosts, all done beat-box. I had to ask him what beat-box meant, I had no idea. I took his original track (just his…
Reg was talking to Elvis about Frank and he told him something he didn't know.you can have it all then at the end not remember it which is what happened to Frank the grind ground him down a sad ending for a great man......Dementia is a cruel end…
Reg has been sitting in the cellar reading some old notebooks and he has decided it's time to air some of his secret stash of poetry. He knows the word poetry can turn an audience of quicker than a desperate man turns a women off but he is prepared…

Well Elvis couldn't just sit still watching Fredrico and the others having such a good time Jamming, he got up and joined in........i mean the party has only just started...................
She was my Princess, Queen of my highway
She was…
And what a damn party this is shaping up to be.....you must have tiger blood in your veins Reg....I can't process this with a normal brain.......superb man, win..........bi-winning
Frederico our Spanish friend is training to be a Matador and he was finding the going a little hard. So he came down the cellar to drink a little moonshine and play a little Blues and let those bad feelings go.............
bulls horns in the bottom...........hahahahaha...........you play to a click track, of do you just have natural perfect timing, because this is wicked in the head bobbing regard........wicked. You know what would sound good over this groove, a trumpet line.
Reg was just tootling about with the piano and he got possessed by someone and just couldn't stop. He's thinking it must have been the Devil himself because he just couldn't stop......or maybe it was the Moonshine........
Yeahhhhhh baby, thats how it sounds, hell as a dark, smokey, bar in NYC, red lights over the bar, everybody drunk out of their minds, ant this piano song going down over in the corner....
New one from me. It's ended up as a bit of a "crying into yer beer at Bob's Country Bunker" sort of song lol...
I've been sat on these lyrics in some form or another for absolutely years. I first wrote them one very dark night a few years after…
Like Cave street says.....Blue Rodeo, thats a good comparison, and that is a high compliment indeed, one of the best loved Canadian bands out there....you done real good here Andy.
Reg has finally brought Bon round and he wants to get straight up and sing............Reg cant stop him ...Well, who can stop a man who's been on the shine... the only problem is that he is blind and he couldn't see the controls on the amp…

Louis was back in the cellar last night and he was telling Reg how Blue he was and they got to jamming...............This morning i arrived at the cellar to find Bon was passed out in the corner....Dave was right with his guess....He could never…
I really love this ongoing story with these characters....this is really good stuff....you have a damn rock-opera on you hands here. Drunken ramblings of a madman, long-forgotten rock legends, sadness and the blues, piano bar wisdom, all taking place in a cellar (like where the Beatles got their big break - Lennon in the other corner writing poems?).......its a world I wnat to visit, how can I find this magical cellar? Is there even a known address, or is it in between.......beauty stuff

Louis? who the hell is Louis........sounds like he is a strong-arm kind of guy. He bring his trumpet? What happened to Bon, passed out in the corner no doubt, could never hold his booze could he.
This new one was written by Willie and features him on guitar and vocals plus once again we are pleased to have Rinyville supply harmony vocals. We welcome your feedback as usual.
feedback: ohhhh yeahhhh baby, thats a beauty.....tender, honest, lots of feeling, melodic, simple and deep at the same time. I love it man, thats all I can say here....beauty harmonies...really fantastic and lovely song. so damn tender it hurts.
Who should come down the cellar to see Elvis but Bon Scott. Reg got on with him like a house on fire, i mean they have a lot in common. Reg told him all about his new love. S o they decided to jam and this is what they came up with…
About the song
It's like a picture of my brain. Psychadelic number using the Korg Monotron. I strummed the guitar riff at 21:00 and within 40 minutes had all the tracks recorded onto the Zoom. All except the two Monotron tracks which were added…
Comments on Dave Berry's stuff
Very very cool mate.
super cool stuff!
killer blues...this IS the down and dirty good stuff!
I dig it. (I'm not criticizing, but a tiny bit of reverb/echo on the drums would be perfect.)
Love the guitar solo's, i agree with Ted the Waites delivery is nice and Bluesy, there must be a better way if only we could find it
Very nice. Nice lyrical observation, too.
Nice tone on those solos man!
Nice. Like Tom Waites channeling Howlin Wolf.
A song a day helps you work rest and play and seems to keep me sain
Merry Christmas Dave
Kicks some major butt! Great job Dave!
Good reinvention! Love DJ!
