            █  Founded by English singer John Lawton (Lucifer's    █
            █  Friend, Uriah Heep, Zar) in January of 1994,        █
            █  GUNHILL was a project initially put together to     █
            █  tour Europe playing covers including classic songs  █
            █  from Whitesnake and Paul Rogers to Ritchie          █
            █  Blackmore's Rainbow, but progressively they also    █
            █  introduced some of their own original material to   █
            █  the live set.                                       █
            █  Including into the original line-up keyboardist     █
            █  Mike Raxworthy, great guitarist Riki Robyns,        █
            █  drummer Lloyd Coates, and bassist Neil Kavanagh     █
            █  (who also contributed with strong backing / lead    █
            █  vocals), after extensive rehearsals the group       █
            █  performed their first Gig in April '94.             █
            █  Playing just three times a month as originally      █
            █  planned, things accelerated very quickly to         █
            █  between 12 and 14 gigs, due to GunHill increasing   █
            █  popularity. Then they decided to record some of     █
            █  the covers they performed regularly as              █
            █  'demonstration' for tour promoters - and for the    █
            █  fans.                                               █
            █  Only manufactured on cassette (remember those?)     █
            █  and entitled "One Over The Eight", the tracks were  █
            █  recorded, produced, and mixed by Kavanagh in his    █
            █  own home studio and sold through the Uriah Heep     █
            █  Appreciation Society fanclub, and at the band's     █
            █  gigs.                                               █
            █  In 1997 GunHill issued their first (and only)       █
            █  official CD 'Nightheat', featuring new songs from   █
            █  the band and other covers as well. But fans - at    █
            █  gigs and over the net - still requested the         █
            █  original "One Over The Eight" tape to be reissued   █
            █  on CD. The tracks were remastered by Lawton's long  █
            █  time friend ave White, and the album put on sale    █
            █  in 1999 on CDr via Heepster Records, the fansclub   █
            █  'label'.                                            █
            █  And what about the music? Anyone who's a fan of     █
            █  classic rock / bluesy hard rock will enjoy this     █
            █  album, particularly if you like early David         █
            █  Coverdale / Whitesnake and Paul Rodgers / Bad       █
            █  Company material. John Lawton is top form here,     █
            █  and the guitar work of Riki Robyns is raw &         █
            █  rockin'.                                            █
            █  Amongst the highlights we have "Walking In The      █
            █  Shadow Of The Blues", that if you ask me, I think   █
            █  is superior to the original Whitesnake version.     █
            █  The Lennon / MacCartney classic "Eleanor Rigby"     █
            █  it's done with a killer raw edge, and Rainbow's     █
            █  "Stone Cold" rocks.                                 █
            █  There's some really good originals as well written  █
            █  by GunHill, being the Uriah Heep-ish "Angel" my     █
            █  favorite.                                           █
            █  For the reissue, the band recorded "River Of        █
            █  Dreams", a song composed by Dave White in           █
            █  appreciation for his work behind the remastering    █
            █  desk.                                               █
            █  Unfortunately, there was not master tapes of "One   █
            █  Over The Eight", as these tracks were recorded in   █
            █  two and a half days purely as promotion and         █
            █  because fans were asking if GunHill had some        █
            █  recorded stuff to sell at the initial gigs.         █
