Engineering some blues

We are indebted to the gentleman you see Mr Nick Broughton,. Nick kindly joined us last Friday at the Engineers. Indeed many may recognise him as the bass player with Jack the Biscuit. It was a great night, of course it was, its the Engineers. Great to see so many familiar faces having a great time. I don't know about you but I like to hear musicians being creative , in full flow. Given that Nick had never played this track before what a top job. It is one of our own songs and enjoy Nick in full free ride bass heaven ,cheers mate.
Take my Time.

Cheers SHM

Tears of a Woman

We have given a Joe Bonamassa riff with its own share of Zep influence some SHM re-work to create, Tears of a Woman.

Perhaps this is the Blues of a helpless man or maybe the beauty of a woman, as seen in her eyes, with hope turned to sadness creating a tear exclusively whenever it is needed.
Tears of a woman was performed live at the Market Tafarn, Abergavenny on Sunday. It is a great vibe to play here for an early Sunday evening gig and so we slotted a fitting Peter Green Song into the set we havn't played for a while.
Heart of Stone enjoy SHM

Bass Man

Its not often bass guitarists take the limelight but you would know it if they weren't there. Have a listen to Mr Finnie taking the middle of a great Blues song by storm and of course " the secret" is adding his usual rich ness. Its an uncanny double bass like tone and a real cruise to play with. and here are a few of the opening bars to the same song. Cheers SHM
