Ray's Vast Basement
Feature Review
Dec. 5, 2007
The first time I saw Ray's Vast Basement take the stage I was immediately intrigued. I really had no idea what to expect from the ensemble except that a reliable source had told me I would like them. After seeing their backline on stage, I leaned over to my companion and whispered: "Two acoustic guitars and a turntable…fucking awesome." ...

Steinbeck is an author who made his first burning impression on me in 7th grade with his short story "The Red Pony." The story evoked an emotional response I wasn't at all prepared for in my pre-adolescent phase. "The Red Pony" is one of many early literary discoveries that influenced my decision to become a vegetarian at 16. Interpreting such heavy literary prose into song is not an easy task, but Bernson, with his Waits/Springsteen style of storytelling, seems to have been perfect for the challenge.
thanks largely to the vision and orchestral talent of Bernson, the album succeeds in both its thematic and musical concepts. Bernson is clearly a huge talent as a singer, songwriter, producer, arranger, and visionary. The album will grab hold of you and just won't let you go.
