The Michael Berry Show

Perry and Nashville

You hung up too early the other day

Ramone told me that you played drums on Michael Martin Murphy's wildfire and we came to you straight out of the

break but you'd already hung up. Oh I didn't I didn't want to interrupt you

you who were on a role with other things that I I didn't want to tell you though you

said what's the best interest to a song but they that was a pop song but uh

Jack Murphy played this beautiful intro on Wildfire.

There was a classical piece.

This may be one of the biggest intros to a pop music song

was by a Russian composer named Scriabin. But anyway you were doing rock and

so he he sampled the Russian composer's piece to start the song? No, he played.

He was a classical jazz piano player who went to North Texas State,

was in the 1 o'clock jazz band.

He owned his own jazz club in Dallas.

He was very, he played for Michael Murphy and David Soul.

Don't give up on his baby. Remember that one?

But anyway, I wrote something for you yesterday. It goes like this.

Hold on, Harry.

So I'm not understanding.

So are you saying that that's incorporated into the beginning of the song wildfire?

Yes, they took a classical piece.
