Really enjoyed this...although, a few times during my listen, I had this strong impulse to just walk away from it all:D Hey. Did you ever live in L.A.? I knew a David Berry there in about 1980 that I worked on some music with that I lost track of.
First of all I love you all!
You are so kind and musically perceptive about my pieces it really makes the hard labour worth it!
The comment about buildings stripped away is spot on!
Also here are the other sonatas. More personal than orchestral music but this is a great site to share them.
No 1 is me trying to imitate Mozart, 2 Beethoven (more stormy!) and 3 the great Bach, my personal favourite. Enjoy!
Peace

Fantastic song writing Dave. When you rolled from acoustic to "rockin" it stole my heart. One hell of a piece of music. A total kitchen sink song. It's got it all.
The guitar is great when it comes in at 1:21! For some reason this sort of has a Dave Matthews Band groove to it which dig. Nice lyrics and vocal delivery.
Great guitar playing! This one has lots feeling to it. I was bobbing my head along the whole time. I'm not much of a lead player so I like listening to other people who can play lead! Well done tune!
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…
This is an "unplugged" version of a song that features a nylon stringed acoustic guitar. All instruments played by Barry Morgan and mixed and mastered in his home studio.
Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…
Sitting around in my shop a couple of days ago with the Goodall and the Zoom H4N. First time I've really messed with using the internal mics on the H4N in multitrack mode
I'm proud to say this is one of the weirdest songs I've ever done. I got some more use out of the beer bottle here, this time hitting it with a pencil instead of blowing on it.
On a cold and lonely trip through hyperspace, our protagonist wonders whether he'll ever see the sunrise on Ganymede again. (All sounds produced acoustically!)
The Music tells the story. we all carry our true selves inside, and experience those who would tell us we are someone else. take this home, light a candle, dance widdershins, blow some smoke to the six directions.... and be free
I hear the sound of one heart breaking
an I wonder whose it is
then I come to realize
I'm the only one there is
oh how'd I get so far away
how has it come to this
of all the things I've had and lost
there's only one I really miss…
A typical folk song.
Written and recorded in about an hour for the 24 hour album (attempted on March 13th). Excuse roughness and vocal glitches, it was 2am and this was my first full take.
Thanks to montgomeru for his chord suggestions…
Thank God for Daniel Johnston, thank god for people who keep his music alive by reminding everybody just how incredible are his songs. This is a very good cover of this song. Thanks for the introduction to Daniel and his incredible music.
The vodka, ahhh. One of 3 that I recorded to a dimming flashlight during a power outage.
One take into the Micro BR hole with some harmony and noodle overdubs.
Vodka
I want the vodka
'Cause I know it's gonna make me play better…
Part 2 - Courtroom and Sentencing.
Courtroom.
In which Angela cross examines the accused and his accomplice.
Sentencing.
In which Judgement is passed.
Call the first witness
Make you take the stand
Raise up your right hand…
Comments on Dave Berry's stuff
This is some serious lady undressing music! nice guitar work!
Awesome stuff. This would be great music to play during a drive through the mountains, where the air is so crisp and clear!
Excellent Storytelling Dave.
Great laidback summer day vibe! Very clever use of tempo changes also. Perfect sounds for today's lazy afternoon.

I love this tune, Dave! Great playing, and really liking the vox on this one as well. Mark
This one has a really nice full frequency spectrum. It sound very lush and full. I dig the bass.
The guitar is great when it comes in at 1:21! For some reason this sort of has a Dave Matthews Band groove to it which dig. Nice lyrics and vocal delivery.

Ganymede, now there is a place I haven't been to in a while. This is making me feel homesick. What a great musical voyage.

This is really fun stuff. Nice chord changes.
Nice punchy guitar tone. Great song.
I love this, so moving.
Yes, this is cool, cool, cool
