Bring America Home è il secondo nonchè ultimo album del gruppo country-rock-blues-prog Timber, dove al ruglio dell’ orsacchiotto psichedelico Wayne Berry viene sovrapposto e sovrainciso il gorgoglio dell’ ugoletta cinquettante di Judy Elliott, nel solito ameno ed effimero sottofondo di chitarre elettriche ed acustiche sul ritmo tagliente ed ossessivo del basso corroborrato dalle vigorose legnate dello scatenato batterista sui piatti e sulle stoviglie.

I  TIMBER sono il legnoso gruppo con cui si affacciò sulla scena musicale l’ incostante, svogliato, assenteista e lavativo cantautore nonchè chitarrista e background vocalist Wayne Berry, che ha all’attivo con loro appena due miseri dischi e poi come solista uno solo, infatti è andato in pensione ad appena 29 anni per potersi dedicare esclusivamente ai suoi hobby preferiti, il parassitismo e il lenocinio.

Following a personnel change which saw the addition of female vocalist
Judy Elliott and a switch to Jac Holzman’s Elektra Records, the group
returned with 1971’s “Bring American Home”.  Produced by Don Gallucci
(of Don and the Good Times fame), the album showcased
singers/songwriters Wayne Berry and George Clinton (no, not the
Funkadelic/Parliament guy); the two responsible (separately) for penning
all ten tracks.  To be honest, the first couple of times I played this
one it made absolutely no impression on me.  In fact after playing it
one afternoon I found myself unable to remember a single one of the ten
selections.  So this one ended up spending a year in my ‘check it out
later’ pile.  When I finally got around to giving it another shot it
didn’t exactly overwhelm me.  Nothing particularly bad, though nothing
that really jumped out at you.  Exemplified by tracks like ‘Canada’
(which featured a pretty melody and a subtle anti-war lyric), the
anti-drug ‘Pipe Dream’, and ‘Don’t Underestimate Your Friends’ (sporting
a Seals and Crofts-vibe), about half the album had a modest
country-rock vibe.  Elsewhere the title track sounded a little bit like
The Mamas and the Papas doing a car commercial. It was an even odder
song given the activist lyric.  Vocalists Berry, Clinton and Elliott
were all competent (Berry was probably the best of the three), though
again none were overwhelming.  Certainly competent, but not an essential
addition to anyone’s collection.

Wayne Berry was in L.A. in the mid to late 60’s, attempting to put together a singer/songwriter deal. A&M
signed him for some demos, at least one of which was released, but
evidently that deal didn’t last. He hung out with a few songwriters and
attempted some collaborations, the one of note being with the post-We The People (2) and pre-Cowboy (2) Tommy Talton. They shopped a few songs and had songs cut, but nothing ever came of that.
Berry ran into a bunch of people in L.A. and formed Timber, who released two albums, the first, Part of What You Hear, on Kapp (co-produced by Joni Mitchell‘s ace producer Henry Lewy) and Bring America Home on Elektra (produced by ex-Don & The Goodtimes and Touch guru Don Galucci. Neither album went anywhere, though Berry’s touch as songwriter led to the solo contract with RCA.
His following solo album, Home At Last,
received praise among critics but fell flat on its face commercially.
Even with airplay, no one bought it outside of Colorado (thanks to
massive airplay of Snowbound on at least one Colorado radio station),
which was typical of the era in the music industry. Breaking unknowns
seemed a crap shoot in those days and, having worked with many of the
promo and A&R people during those times, it was no wonder.
He did
have his option for a second album picked up and test pressings exist.
One made it into the hands of a critic for either Phonograph Record or
BAM and he raved but, alas, the record was not released.
Berry is reportedly in Nashville and is in the ministry, in some capacity.
