"Caldwell's Breakdown" (Fast in the BopGrass)
This “BopGrass” breakdown marks a close to 40 year recall of the opening lick which kicks off the tune. "Tho’ I wrote it, I realized I didn’t play any bluegrass instruments. That is all left to the masterful Bill Degillio, playing keys, guitar and programming. He also did the engineering. I play the Baritone/Tuba part (figured I had to do something) plus a spit of percussion and mouth music. It’s dedicated to the legendary Dick Caldwell, my first bandleader, eventual manager and dear, dear friend (AND his '68 Cadillac, which was always "breaking down"). May we all have a happier new year!"

Dean Clark Hall has been writing music and entertaining audiences since 1973.

"Bleep the Corona" (Un-Bleeped)
"This odd metered reggae tune marks a first dip into the world of the "explicit" for me. Just one word, but I was so fed up with all the politization of the Corona/Covid thing that I had to express a certain amount of frustration. A fun romp."
