I really didn’t expect this and I don’t know what to say except THANK YOU! The 4th pressing for Best of Beserkley ‘75-‘84 just arrived at Riot aka GK HQ. I just happened to be at HQ when the UPS truck came. Boxes of fresh CDs just kept coming off the UPS truck. I quickly grabbed a box and a knife and cut into one of the boxes. We always open every box and randomly pick out a CD, rip it open and take a listen. You’d be surprised over the years how many times there’s been something wrong. I’ve had the wrong artwork or CD print, the correct artwork but CD had scratches and music skipped, the correct print but with another band’s music on the CD, I’ve had it all. Well, I’m happy to say that all of these CDs are good to go!
I’m very proud of this collection of songs. I feel it represents the very best of the GKB from the Beserkley years. I remember when I went into the Tom Land Studios to re-master all of the songs with my mgmt team. We listened to each and every song from every album and hand-picked our favorite songs for this Best of Beserkley compilation. We wanted to take at least one song from every album but not overdo it on any one album. All I wanted to do was leave something for the fans to enjoy and for me to be remembered by. Each one of those albums has a little bit of my soul in them. These songs are my legacy and I hope you enjoy this compilation as much as I do.
Again all I can say is THANK YOU!
