Jutta Weinhold „Memories of Zed Yago”, first time on LP with bonus tracks, available on CD too. A must have for all 1980’s Zed Yago and Velvet Viper fans. Let’s enter once again Jutta’s Magic World of Fantasy. Her band Zed Yago, founded in 1985, became pretty popular in Europe and to be considered a pioneer of „dramatic” metal. The band’s concept albums „From Over Yonder” (1988) and „Pilgrimage” (1989) deal with the experiences of a fictitious daughter of the Flying Dutchman, written by her fantasy and vivid imagination; to mention for „Pilgrimage” the band supported W.A.S.P. on Uk tour.
„Velvet Viper” (with former Warlock Peter Szigeti on guitar) was released in 1990 and „Fourth Quest For Fantasy” (with former Z.Y. drummer Bubi) in 1992, are both great epic-classic HM albums but did not meet good sales, so then the band was put on ice.In 1994 she released her third solo album „To Be Or Not” with heavier sound in comparison with her previous solo-ones and with Velvet Viper on hold her unstoppable creativity flowed in Weinhold albums „From Heaven through the World to Hell” (2004) and „Below the Line” (2006).
In 2017 Jutta teamed up with guitarist Holger Marx and started working on the Velvet Viper comeback with the album „Respice Finem” (2018); produced by Kai Hansen (he appears also on album as guest), which was very well received in many magazines and in the metal scene, so in 2019 the band played at the Headbanger’s Open Air and at Wacken earning very positive reactions. A new band era was started: „The Pale Man Is Holding A Broken Heart” (2019), „Cosmic Healer” (2021), „Nothing Compares to Metal” (2023) show once again Jutta’s never-ending creative mind as writer and vocalist. As always in Velvet Viper the lyrics relate to fantasy, myths and literary sources (Shakespeare, Richard Wagner,…), they fit perfectly to their epic heavy metal enriched by Jutta’s powerful and dramatic vocals, creating an unique sound and atmosphere.
