Paul Menel - Spare Parts For Broken Hearts

300 ONLY. This album, the first from Paul Menel and his new band, the Essentials, represents a further step in Paul's musical evolution from his early days with 1980s UK proggers, IQ. It demonstrates his growth as an artist and as a man, not frightened to face his demons and to confront the emotional challenges of life in the early years of the 21st century. Ably supported by his band, The Essentials, featuring the powerhouse rhythm unit that is Tim Churchman on drums and Steven Swift on bass, this album has again been produced by the legendary Gavin Monaghan - renowned for his work with Robert Plant and Peter Gabriel among others. Appropriately to be launched on Valentines Day 2017, the album takes us on an emotional journey into maturity, with catchy songs set to become earworms and which talk of love lost and found and the trials of life.
