Ray Davies
September 29, 1996
Berkshire Theater
Stockbridge MA
This is my first ever upload. I've been leaching here long enough and want to contribute for a
change. I've got a few old crusty cassettes kicking around that I've decided to rip and share.
This is the last date of a 5-show engagement at the Berkshire Theater of Ray's "Storyteller" tour.
He told stories and read from his book, X-Ray, and balanced a beer on his head. Presented here are
the music interludes of the evening. Some songs cut in a little rough as Ray would suddenly stop with
the storytelling and launch into a song, and I'd be late hitting record, but very little is missing.
Some songs were also played in an abreviated form. Not the highest fidelity recording, but still
an enjoyable listen. Ray's songs almost call for a more lo-fi, old-timey sound.
