John Browns Body –Ring of Berlin
We caught up with drummer Tommy Benedetti to find out more…
“Ring Of Berlin” was recorded in the summer of 2010 at More Sound Studio in Syracuse, NY. It was tracked by Jocko Randall, our engineer, at the same studio where “AMPLIFY” was recorded. I remember putting this track together at soundcheck in Portland, ME. Being that we are between albums, we wanted to put out a fresh tune to give fans something to chew on while we continue writing for a new record.
We are so psyched that our old buddy Craig “Rankin” Welsch aka Dubfader (10 Ft. Ganja Plant, JBB) returned to the fold for this special mix. He hasn’t worked with the band since the album “This Day,” so we are thrilled that he fit us into his schedule and threw down a crucial dub mix. The song was originally titled “”The Ring”” but somewhere in the dubbing process it became “Ring Of Berlin”. It was mastered by Kevin Metcalfe (The Clash, Paul McCartney, The Police). Enjoy!!!-Tommy B, John Browns Body
