Custom Post Template and header

  • Hi I’m trying to sort out why my custom header will not call I have set up a custom Post Template and save a custom header which have named header-blog.jpg and the post template is named single-review.php mark up shown below.

    <?php
/*
Single Post Template: Usher Review Template
Description: This post template is speficically for the Usher Reviews on this website where it has a different header
*/
get_header("blog");
?>
			<?php get_sidebar('top'); ?>
			<?php
			if (have_posts()) {
				/* Display navigation to next/previous posts when applicable */
				if (theme_get_option('theme_top_single_navigation')) {
					theme_page_navigation(
							array(
								'next_link' => theme_get_previous_post_link('&laquo; %link'),
								'prev_link' => theme_get_next_post_link('%link &raquo;')
							)
					);
				}
				while (have_posts()) {
					the_post();
					get_template_part('content', 'single');
					/* Display comments */
					if (theme_get_option('theme_allow_comments')) {
						comments_template();
					}
				}
				/* Display navigation to next/previous posts when applicable */
				if (theme_get_option('theme_bottom_single_navigation')) {
					theme_page_navigation(
							array(
								'next_link' => theme_get_previous_post_link('&laquo; %link'),
								'prev_link' => theme_get_next_post_link('%link &raquo;')
							)
					);
				}
			} else {
				theme_404_content();
			}
			?>
			<?php get_sidebar('bottom'); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>

    I have also made a specific header file called header-blog.php

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html <?php language_attributes(); ?>>
<head>
<meta charset="<?php bloginfo('charset') ?>" />
<title><?php wp_title('|', true, 'right'); bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
<meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale = 1.0, maximum-scale = 1.0, user-scalable = no, width = device-width">
<!--[if lt IE 9]><script src="https://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script><![endif]-->

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php bloginfo('stylesheet_url') ?>" media="screen" />
<link rel="pingback" href="<?php bloginfo('pingback_url'); ?>" />
<?php
remove_action('wp_head', 'wp_generator');
if (is_singular() && get_option('thread_comments')) {
	wp_enqueue_script('comment-reply');
}
wp_head();
?>
</head>
<body <?php body_class(); ?>>

<div id="art-main">

<?php if(theme_has_layout_part("header")) : ?>
<header class="clearfix art-header<?php echo (theme_get_option('theme_header_clickable') ? ' clickable' : ''); ?>"><?php get_sidebar('header'); ?>

    <div class="art-shapes">

            </div>

</header>
<?php endif; ?>

<nav class="art-nav clearfix">
    <?php
	echo theme_get_menu(array(
			'source' => theme_get_option('theme_menu_source'),
			'depth' => theme_get_option('theme_menu_depth'),
			'menu' => 'primary-menu',
			'class' => 'art-hmenu'
		)
	);
?>
    </nav>
<div class="art-sheet clearfix">
            <div class="art-layout-wrapper clearfix">
                <div class="art-content-layout">
                    <div class="art-content-layout-row">
                        <div class="art-layout-cell art-content clearfix">

    I can see the template for my post page as I installed Single Post Template which allows me to alter the template for specific posts, this works perfectly well and I can call the template when I write a specific post, but I can’t seem to get my alternative header to show up.
    Is there anyone who can help me pin point why this is happening.
    Many thanks
