These songs are originals that were recorded in Berlin with the Berlin Three... Tex Morton, (Guitar/Lap Steel) Andy Laaf, (Drums) and Valle M. (Stand-up Bass). These guys kick it square in the ass and are the best Psychobilly musicians I've ever seen (and great guys too...) Anybody that knows me knows that I like anything -'billy! See my blog on THE BERLIN THREE... Country music was what I grew up on. My mother sang in country music jamborees and on the radio when I was kid in Pride, Louisiana. I started playing drums at an early age and grew to enjoy playing all music, but I keep coming back to Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Merle Haggard, Buddy Holly, Hank Jr., the list goes on. Only 2 kinds of music I've grown to believe; Music you like, or music you don't like... Member of SuperColaGang
