Wyoming & in Prison

For fans of Redbone, Tony Carey, Xit - the band's only two albums from 1971 and 1972 are now available on CD for the first time - Includes bonus tracks "And Our Love" and "Stone" from the vinyl single of the same title released in 1971 first album releases by Pete "Wyoming" Bender, who had hits such as "Born To Be Indian", "Ich habe diese Frau geliebt Frau geliebt" and "Nicht mehr siegen" in the late 1970s/early 1980s.

Pete "Wyoming" Bender (born September 14, 1943; died February 15, 2014 in Berlin) was born to American parents in Alsace and spent almost his entire childhood in the US. In 1971 ("Wyoming") and 1972 ("In Prison"), he recorded two albums for the progressive label Bacillus (distributed by Bellaphon). The sound is more elaborately orchestrated Americana reminiscent of the Beatles than Krautrock. Wyoming was pigeonholed as a "German" band.



Years later, Pete launched his solo career in Berlin with the hit "Born To Be An Indian." Wyoming's guitarist, Rainer Marz, came from Jeronimo and then joined Atlantis and Supermax. Jorg Ermisch made a career with the folk musicians of Liederjan. Curt Cress (Doldinger's Passport, Snowball, among others) drummed on the second LP, and Georg Rober, later with Aqua, played bass.



The centerpiece here is the ten-minute, hypnotic "Indian Wardance." Both Bacillus albums are now being released on CD for the first time as reissues. "Wyoming" and "In Prison" were produced by Peter Hauke (Omega, Nektar, Nine Days Wonder, among others); Dieter Dirks was at the controls in the studio.
