I have been searching for that Dave Berger because he played an OUTSTANDING harp on that record, one of my favorite hamonica records ever. As a player, I was immediately impressed by his playing, and many many times wondered why he never was featured on anyone else's record, or never got more famous. If anyone can answer this, please e-mail me and let me know. It sounds very much like the same person, and it is a sad story, no matter who it was. I enjoyed reading it. Thanks for posting. --DAN I’d like to know if this is the Dave Berger who played harmonica on John Lee Hooker’s “Endless Boogie” album.

Thank you for such a sensitive, honest and non-sentimental article. I have fleeting memories of David, at one of the visits we non-residentail Pacific students made to the boarding house - sauna followed by swimming in the forbidden pool in the middle of the night. David was a private person, as you say, with a deep innner preoccupation and was respected for that by all, I think. I wonder if you remember me - I was called Judy - and my then boyfriend wasTony Douglas. I remember your fabulous honky-tonk piano playing, and also staying at your place in San Francisco on our epic journey hitch-hiking south to Los Angeles. I wish I could have been at the Pacific reunion, but I am living in Budapest so travelling long distances takes some organizing, but maybe the next one I can attend, with my son who is at university on Scotland. If you get this email, please do contact me on jutka.fischer@gmail.com I would love to catch up! Gregg Troll and Marianne, now Iris, came to visit Budapest last summer and it was wonderful to see them. Best, Jutka (Judy) Fischer Hi Dean,

I loved reading your obituary about David Berger. Thank you for such a sensitive, honest and non-sentimental article.

I have fleeting memories of David, at one of the visits we non-residentail Pacific students made to the boarding house – sauna followed by swimming in the forbidden pool in the middle of the night.

David was a private person, as you say, with a deep innner preoccupation and was respected for that by all, I think.

I wonder if you remember me – I was called Judy – and my then boyfriend wasTony Douglas. I remember your fabulous honky-tonk piano playing, and also staying at your place in San Francisco on our epic journey hitch-hiking south to Los Angeles.

I wish I could have been at the Pacific reunion, but I am living in Budapest so travelling long distances takes some
organizing, but maybe the next one I can attend, with my son who is at university on Scotland.
