Bluesdragon warmth 2

Playing at the Blues Dragon club has been an aspiration for SHM for a while, if you've been keepin tabs you'll know we felt the Mr Green style was us, but really going for it caused change in line up. Its been hard work but Ben and Nick are on it and the feel with these songs is great. To hear the appreciation from the discerning Blues Dragon audience was fantastic! and still plenty to improve on though, meanwhile here's the self penned / interpreted tunes, we slotted in between the Greeny/T bone Walker/Allman Bros and BBking inc Heartbreak HotelTears of a Woman Take my Timeand a fave song which with Nicks bass line well, av a listen, Soul Connection makes you wanna write some more for next time! Cheers SHM

Bluesdragon warmth

About to play our first gig at Bluesdragon club, nerves were tingling. We brought our splendid 4x12 cabs, along with Bens drums miked up into the PA cabs, I think the audience were worried it was going to be high volume. So what better way to sooth those worries away than with the opening bars to Stormy Monday. Swiftly followed by a juicy addition to our set by the only man who made BBKing sweatReal World by Peter Green. Then it was time to get serious with a rendition of Little Wing.By request enjoy! Then we had the pleasure of being joined by the foxy vocals of Jane Williams, which was some kind of wonderful! Big,Big thank you to those who keep this Blues heartland going, hope to see you many of you again 1st Aug at CAFE JAZZ. ps if the nice lady taking photos would send us some well put them up here with the audio, thank you in advance Cheers SHM
