Haze was made
up of Kurt FREI on drums, Hans-Jurg FREI on rhythm guitar and organ,
Heinz SCHWAB on lead guitar, Christian SCHERLER on vocals, and Dietmar
LOW on bass and acting as solo songwriter. Their only record was
produced by Peter HAUKE and Dieter DIERKS, who also produced NEKTAR's
debut album. HAZE dished out a brand of heavy, spacey, funky art rock
that is most successfully compared to THE ARTHUR BROWN BAND, ARTHUR
BROWN'S KINGDOM COME and CAPTAIN BEEFHEART, due to the music's bluesy
feel and Scherler's vocals, which jump from dark gravel to over the top
screeching.It would also be safe to also compare the group to other
members of the Krautrock scene, as well as heavy blues bands that were
transitioning out of the psychedelic era into the 70's. However, Haze
came equipped with a tricky sense of humor, best evident in the lyrics
of "A Way To Find The Paradise". Unafraid to jam, the songs are loaded
with lengthy instrumental passages that highlight Schwab's guitar
skills. Line-up / Musicians Kurt Frei/drums Christian Scherler/vocals Hans-Jürg Frei/guitar,organ Dietmar Löw/bass Heinz Schwab/guitar Discography Hazecolor Dia 1971
