Has anyone seen the CD or casette by the Boston group, Heavy Metal Horns? I saw this band up at Killington, VT. 2 weekends ago and they were FANTASTIC! Some of my friends live in Boston and see them regularly at the Alley Cat (I think). From what I hear they've been the talk of the town (Boston) for the past 6 months or so. They're an 8 piece band; 4 horns, 2 guitars, keyboards, drummer. The interesting thing is, there's a Jamaican guy, a Mexican (looking) guy, and an Oriental guy, (all band members) and I think this diversity makes Heavy Metal Horns unique sound. Most everything they play is their own stuff. Their drummer looks like Axle Rose. IF you ask me what category their music fits into, I could only say, Jazz Rock, MAYBE. I know one thing fur sure, I had a great time listening/dancing to them and can't wait to see them again. If anyone knows about these guys; their CD and where to find it, I'd appreciate it. Kelly.

I've seen the CD(s?) around. You might try 'Newbury Comics' They tend to favor area bands (esp the Harvard Sq. location). I'm not sure where you're located, but if you have friends in Boston, they could probably do it for you. Also, if you're real local, you could try 'Disc Diggers' in Davis Sq., Somerville. Alot of stuff seems to crawl out of the wood work and into their bins. Overall, you shouldn't have too much trouble, I _have_ seen their stuff in stores in the Boston area. And I agree with you on their stuff, an old friend turned me on to their stuff a few years ago. Good luck. Hope I've been helpful. -Jesse | |||||

The horn section of HMH's are touring with the Extreme right now in Europe. They needed a horn section to replicate some of 3 Sides...(their latest release). The horn section that worked on the album was "unavailable" so thru a mutual friend of the 2 bands, they hooked up. They do "Hole Hearted","Cupids Dead","Teachers pet", "War heads", and i believe 1 other song. I think the HMH are on hold till the tour in Europe is over, which will be Dec 23rd. informatinally yours, Peter | |||||

The non-horn players in HMH are being paid by Extreme while the horn players are away. |
