German release features an earlier lineup of the Grip Weeds (l-r: Mick Hargrave,
Tim Mesko, Rick and Kurt). "She Brings the Rain" is a perfect example of the Grip
Weeds' powerful-yet-melodic approach to Pop-Rock, while "Strange Bird" is among
the band's most loved songs. This is an earlier version of the song, which was
later re-recorded for the second album, THE SOUND IS IN YOU. This double-sided
single fully demonstrates the Grip Weeds abilities as tunesmiths and purveyors
of Power Pop style. Full color cover. Kurt
Reil: vocals, drums, percussion Rick Reil: vocals, guitars Tim Mesko:
vocals, guitars Chris Breetveld: bass She Brings the Rain recorded
and mixed at Soundscape Studios NYC produced by the Grip Weeds with Richard
X. Heyman engineered by Gary Wade Strange Bird recorded and mixed
at Epsilon Stdios, Trenton, NJ produced by the Grip Weeds engineered
