The Steve Hill Demo Tape

I was on the hunt in the shed looking for some bits to make the synth stand three tier when I came across a box of stored tapes and papers so I got side-tracked and sat with them for an hour. Most of things in the box weren’t of any great value until I came across a sealed package that contained a cassette of demo’s that Steve Hill (Bloodrock’s keyboard player) had sent me along with a hand written note plus photo’s – to say I was stoked to relocate them would be an understatement so now they are locked up safe in the cupboard, I did however transfer the tape to the PC through the trusty Behringer mixer so it lost nothing of its sound quality.
Listening to it while recording it re-affirmed that Stevie was a brilliant keyboard player and writer, and is sadly missed – I can happily say he was a friend and shall never be forgotten “Cheers Mate”
Oh and before you even consider asking if you can have a copy, forget it – you’ll have two chances and they are bugger all and none!

RIP Steve Hill

Bloodrock, an oft forgotten band from Ft Worth Texas – forgotten by most but never by me, so much so I named my youngest daugther after the track ‘Jessica’ off Bloodrock 3. Just found some sad news though, Steve Hill, keyboardist extraordinaire has just passed away.
A sad day for me indeed, I spent many an hr on the phone to TX talking music with him, yes I can say I knew him and proudly too.

RIP Stevie, you Jon Lord and Vincent Crane can rock out the B3’s in Heaven.
