From Detroit Bass Player Bass Ron Cooke
The Brothers of the Road recording of Pirate Music we recorded in the studio of Jeff Jones. B of the R band was..Keyboards Harry (Hairless) Phillips, John Morgan drums, Scott guitar/vocals and I (bass) it was in Livonia Michigan. The executive producer was Gary the Brim Bermley. He was a local music freak who was also involved in the production of the Gang War band. He died a untimely death at the hands of drugs . but the session and the tune has always been a definitive recording of Scott Morgan's music and his song writing style... Ron Cooke
