The Quireboys - Tears in Heaven



The Quireboys are an English hard rock band formed in 1984 in London, England, with strong ties to Newcastle.
In the United States they were known as the London Quireboys.
The band were successful during the late 1980s and early 1990s, with their debut album "A Bit of What You Fancy".
In 1993, the Quireboys broke up but briefly reformed live in 1995 with different members. A more permanent reformation came in 2001 when front man Spike, guitarist Guy Griffin and bassist Nigel Mogg put together a new line-up. The band is still active, recording new material and playing live.
In Maj 2008 The Quireboys released their long awaited album "Homewreckers & Heartbreakers" on the Jerkin Crocus label.

Todays tune is a nice cover of Eric Claptons "Tears in Heaven" and its a charity single release in 2006
