As being one of uncountable bands that faded away after releasing only one album, Weed was formed as a great surprise on its time, once because their members Reinhold Spiegelfeld, Bernd Hohmann and Werner Monka were recent-departed from Virus after recording Revelation album and the recording sessions periods difference of both albums is only practically 2 months, relying on a completely different musical tide. And despite of not being properly credited, Ken Hensley of Uriah Heep was a guest featured seeming like the band's frontman, also taking control of lead vocals. Weed othewise did sound much more like a British strongly blues-driven hard rock band with progressive elements than a German band. They didn't last for over a year together, but left as legacy an interesting album. <br /> <br />line-up: <br /> <br />Ken Hensley (vocals, guitar, keyboards) <br />Reinhold Spiegelfeld (bass) <br />Bernd Hohmann (flute) <br />Werner Monka (guitar) <br />Rainer Schnelle (keyboards) <br />Peet Becker (drums) <br /> <br />http://bordeldorock.blogspot.co.il/2013/10/weed-weed-1971-2008-remaster-flac.html
