In the 1970s and early 1980s Berkleley was home to several great and influential record labels, including Fantasy Records (once home to CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL and SYLVESTER). But more beloved by true believers in power pop and underground rock was the Beserkeley label, started in 1973 by ace manager/producer Matthew King Kaufman. Over the course of the next 11 years Beserkeley was home to national acts like JONATHAN RICHMAN & THE MODERN LOVERS and Bay Area acts GREG KIHN and the RUBINOOS. Go Beserkley with this week's episode of Geek (Ema)Nation -- we dare you!
