The music of MICK TERRY is highly lyrical,
with catchy hooks & gripping melodies,
simple in form, yet contrapuntally intricate,
rhythmically moving & harmonically engaging.

With the general direction toward pop-rock,
his melodies & arrangements span a spectrum of emotions
& genres, with an underlying sense of beauty, dignity & caring,
occasionally even allowing his humor to slip through.
Sometimes beautiful, sometimes rough:  rich feelings
are brought to the heart, colorful pictures to the mind.

His lyrics lean toward the quasi-intelligent side, in a visually
descriptive
& emotional style. Sprinkled with ample flavorings
of wit, irony
& a healthy dosage of story-telling,
they at times end with a Rod Serling-flavored twist.
Often, his lyrics deal with serious topics
& themes of spiritual & social concern.

          BITCHY AND ORNERY
Music & lyrics are not the only media of creativity for
MICK TERRY.  In 1991, he designed & built a highly detailed
scale model train diorama.   Since then, 2 fictitious stories

& 27 of his photos of  The BICCI & ONRI RailRoad
have been published in national publications & catalogs.

The detail and photography are so realistic that
professional photographers, modelers
& railroad personnel, Click for Bicci + Onri RailRoad Photos by  Composer-Songwriter  MICK TERRY
as well as most lay people,
have thought the pictures
were of full-scale reality,
not models less than 2 inches high.

The diorama has spent most of its existence on
public display in Maryland & California in museums,
libraries, hobby stores and businesses.


          DR. DeCREPID
Increasingly, suspicions have arisen that  MICK TERRY 
has a much darker side.   Each Halloween since 1997,  

MICK seems to disappear at night for several hours at a time.
During those periods, reports of a nefarious ghoul lurking
around Los Angeles have proliferated.

The full extent of the danger to the public has yet to be determined.
Symptoms of victims coming near this loathsome apparition  Click for rare photos of Dr. DeCrepid
range from excruciatingly painful eardrums
to extreme & violent nausea.
Besides the horrendous appearance
& the pungent nose-wrinkling stench,
what sends these helpless innocents reeling
could be the dissonant unearthly utterances
belching forth
from the bowells of the creature's monster KORG.

Suburban legends & folklore have spread about this phenomenon
& it has become known around L.A. as  Dr. DeCrepid ,
the despicable de-composer of distaste,
the diabolical director of disection,
the dreadful denizen of disaster.
(Although
the loathsome creature had been totally unheard of
prior to
MICK's  relocation to the Los Angeles area,
& although never seen in the same place at the same time,
& despite some claims that there is a striking resemblance,

MICK TERRY steadfastly denies any involvement in this matter.)

[ Note :   Prior to the move from Maryland to California,
MICK TERRY was known professionally as
MICHAEL STEVEN TERRY   or
MICHAEL C. TERRY. ]
