  3. Saw the first "partial" get together at Odean years ago..it was wonderful..met Wally, but regret not waiting to meet Scott.Got the video and so much of the great material was Scott's...what a damn talent so few know about....Go if ya can..it's STILL ROCK HISTORY FOLKS..GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  4. Hey All, The tape transfer went well to Dvd, so be on the lookout here for some never before seen clips of EC in action on the baseball diamond and behind the scenes from around 1999 or so, fun to watch!!
  5. To all true EC fans!... I fianlly cleaned out my storage unit today and found the video tape from around 1998 or so of Eric playing in a charity baseball game in Fort Myers, Florida wearing an Indians uniform to boot. I have to have it transferred to dvd so I can edit it down and upload parts of it here on the site for all to enjoy. Look for it soon!!! It's been years since I have viewed it myself, so I am excited as well to see what all is on it. Dean
  6. Absolutety...I will dig the tape up..it's pricelss to any EC fan, but per Eric's request, he'll get the full copy of the day to share with his family,but there is plenty to see and enjoy that I can edit in and would be glad to share..it's a rare glimpse of him playing the game he loves and the special moments he gave me and other ec fans there that day..I am sure you will all enjoy and get a kick out if it! Dean
  7. Eric, the tape and the truth of that day's play will forever be sealed..lol Means ALOT to me that you remembered that special day for me...You sure you don't want the tape of the game to show Clayton how NOT to play?????..lol DT
  8. Haven't been on in awhile, but I wanted to share this story of meeting Eric a few years ago and what he did for me. He and David Spero appeared at a preseason baseball game here in Fort Myers, Fla. around 1998 or so, No..Eric did Not sing the anthem alone, he joined in with several people on the mound to do so. I had heard he might appear, so I brought my EC first solo album and a video camera with me. Well there was my idol wearing a Cleveland Indians uniform signing autographs along a rail. I was madly in love at the time with a girl named Darlene, and our favorite song was "Love is all that matters"..I asked Eric to sign the album, he did..and I then asked him if he would look into my video camera and say.."Darlene..love is all that matters", and..he did indeed do so....I played the video for her later that night and it was a magical moment I obviously never forgot..she and I didn't last, but the special day and what Eric did for me will forever...For those of you who never have had the pleasure of meeting this talented and tender-hearted man as I have a few times...I have 2 words for you.."CLASS ACT"... The video is somewhere I hope in my storage unit..I'll try to dig it up and post it here in the future. Just wanted to share..Dean
  9. I never got to meet Scott when he played with Wally and Jim at the Odeon a few years back, it's something I regret. I did however make contact with him and he was able to send an Eric scrapbook I had for years and get it into Eric's hands which I confirmed later when I met Eric at a charity ballgame in Fort Myers. For those of you who HAVEN'T heard Scott's Play On cd, you are cheating yourself. It is nothing short of a pop gem without a weak note or voice on it, just go get one ok????? You'll thank me later........The video clip we see on this post is pure musical magic, it's SPELLS ROCK N ROLL..the look, the energy, the tunes..you couldn't design a super group like this if you wanted to.....it chills me every time I play it.How a total talent and nice human being doesn't get his due and opportunity to share his talents with millions is simply a shame. I consider myself blessed to have seen live both versions of Raspberries, Eric solo many times and the 3 who appeared at the Odeon. On every one of those nights, the world seemed right and I was witness to the true definition of rock and musical GENIOUS in action..THANKS BOYS...I hope all of you take a moment now and then to give yourselves a bit of credit for sharing your gift of music to sooo many out here who have never forgotten one note of what you brought us....and Mr. McCarl...Scott..you are a HUGE talent who we witnessed for way too short of time, which makes me sad, really..but I got the Odeon video and your cd and starting over to remember you by. I hope oneday we can contact you directly to share our thoughts, memories and give thanks directly to you for all that you gave us in what was a very short time!!! Scott, give us the pleasure and honor of communicating with you, let us make your day in return for many nights of pop music brilliance.....Dean
  10. I have been watching and listening to a bunch of Jesse Bryson videos and music. I really hope to meet the kid someday and tell him how we all feel about his very talented Pop...Hope he makes it too..question..he looks , plays and moves like Wally Jr.....but..does he have Wally's clever, dry, sarcastic and fun sense of humor also...??? Anyone meet Jesse??? Any thoughts???
  11. Also saw them back in the 70's, Very good rock pop, melodies etc.Couple of members came from group called Looking Glass. I read that lead singer Micheal Lee Smith is the brother of teen idol/singer Rex Smith who had a decent hit called "you take my breath away". "Cherry Baby" is a MUST hear from ANY berries fan. They are still out there in bars these days and on you tube, check em out!
  12. Does anyone have the "inside story" of how long the berries were given to play at HOF gig and what was the set list? Thanks! Dean
  13. I agree..this will be second tour without Christine McVie. IF....she had been included this time, maybe I could see it happening. Plus with Lindsey just releasing and touring behind his new cd this smells of the band needing some cash...hard to believe, but I wouldn't be surprised....
  14. Why would someone soo talented, well-respected and loved by this very special community, NEVER involve himself in ANY way, shape or form? No interviews, pictures, comments, in-person appearances..nuthin..? Met him at a home improvement store in high school, a thrill, but he was short with us, never smiled, and reacted to our joy in seeing him by chance like it was a death notice.Don't mean to judge him at all, I don't know him, but does ANYBODY? Just seems sad, and I am sure there is much we don't know that backs alot of this up. But if anyone has a morsel of info, thoughts, sightings..hell..ANYTHING about Michael, I'd love to hear it. Also, if you dig deep enough, I have read a few times that he was a VERY good vocalist also, EC..anything you could share? Thanks gang.
  15. Eric and Clayton, Congrats to both of you, The proud Dad and the talented young student and son, BRAVO!!!!
