Au Revoir to Dave's signature

We are very sad to say Au revoir to Dave Hall who has brought a real Buddy richness on drums to SHM. Dave's off to Switzerland for a few months and we will miss him. We certainly wouldn't have created the sound without Dave.
This is the song he enjoyed most, eyes closed and flowing, It was Daves signature, a very Allman Bros version of the Tbone classic Stormy Monday. Cheers SHM

Manalishi at the Engineers

I heard that Jamie and Nick's ( from Jack the Biscuit) new band Manalishi were playing at the Engineers so thought I would bob in and have a listen. Jamie is a fellow Gibson fan and appears to have slotted a fat humbucker into an early 70's mini humbucker goldtop. The result is an unmistakable vintage tone. Nice !!!!! Have a listen to it doin what it does best on this classic. Cheers SHM
