Combination

Combination (feat. Jeff Howell)

Dug back into the vaults for some more recordings from 1984, some rip roaring versions of Break Loose/Rocks Solid and Power Force, Rocks Solid is also on Into the Vault 1985 which is a different version, most of these recordings were in their initial stages of development mainly my friends feeling the songs out and learning them in the moment as I had to show them chord progressions/structure etc., so they are really raw but have their hidden gems throughout, the main thing is that they were recorded!  All of the recordings are from cassette tape, I eq'ed/compressed them then mastered them, so they are the basic raw recordings from back in the day, also there are bonus tracks added, Power Force and Star from 2002 and Power Through from 2003, these songs were recorded on a four-track cassette recorder.  I used my 1978 Peavey T-60 and Peavey Classic 50 watt amp with a Dearmond Wah pedal and an MXR distortion pedal, I used the wah pedal a lot in a certain position when playing and later learned that Mr. Michael Schenker also employed the same thing I believe.  It's fun digging through the old recordings and upgrading the quality of them and presenting them as well as preserving them.  Thanks very much for watching!

Star tuned for much more to come new music/remixing/mastering, collaborations etc, also check out Break Loose and Power Force from the album Rock It which are tracks two and eleven at the end of this video and the link below for a rehearsal version of Break Loose from 2007!

Allright, allright, allright - we've finally finished our new release! Aptly named The Rift, our latest release outlines the ongoing development of our musical experimentation as we’re dealing with separations and changes of many types. Centerpieces of the EP are two new full tracks, building on the foundation of our previous efforts to create dynamic and diverse music within our instrumental trio framework. As a new component for us, each member added a solo piece to transition into, between, and out of the tracks, rounding out The Rift into a five-piece musical journey through our experiences as a band over the last years. Check it out and experience our tale of separation, disruptive events and blossoming of new life!

Track listing:

The Rift I: Preludium
The Rift II: Paratone
The Rift IV: Interludium
The Rift V: Nimbus Nomad
The Rift VI: Postludium

This is another demo from many years ago , recorded on a laptop with a basic audio package. Improvised on the spot & done in a few hours-in the comfort of my living room. I really dig the vibe , it's a cool flow of energy folks. My ever trusty Squire 60's Strat & a DI out of my old Marshall Valvestate Combo-those were the days amigos. I hope y'all dig it & that it helps soothe your souls in these difficult times. Cheers Y'all. peace&zen

The latest monster of rock, guitarist EH, While the rest of the world is preoccupied with recycled pop tunes and monotonous rock and roll reincarnations, this Baltimore behemoth is hoisting the weight of the world on his shoulders while creating some of the most inspired rock pieces in recent memory
