The Rainer Bloss Combo (originally Rainer Bloss Sextett , occasionally also Rainer Bloß Combo or Rainer Bloß-Combo ) was a band that was founded in Weimar in 1971 and merged with the band Vulcan in 1973.

Band history

In 1971, students at the "Franz Liszt" University of Music in Weimar founded the Rainer Bloss Sextet. In 1972 the band was renamed. From then on, the band consisted of the namesake , who wrote the compositions and played bass , Peter Neumann ( vocals ), Alexander Kirfe ( flute , guitar ) and the drummer Dieter Ernst. Bernd Roitzsch ( keyboard ) was added later.

In 1972 the Amiga record label produced two singles. Gisela Dreßler sang one title each. With Every Day is Beautiful , she won the GDR Schlager competition in 1971 . The B-side on the second single, So began love began, sang the trained opera singer Gunther Emmerlich . The radio of the GDR produced other titles with the band, such as Stumme Lady von New York, but in 1973 they re-founded as Vulcan and turned to more rocky pieces.
