Имя Кена Хенсли (Ken Hensley) навсегда войдет в историю рок-музыки XX века как первого настоящего хитмейкера классической британской хард-роковой сцены 70-х. Безусловно, миллионы рок-поклонников видят в Кене прежде всего фактического музыкального лидера и харизматического клавишника и гитариста рок-монстров Uriah Heep периода 70-80-х годов. Однако, и за пределами Uriah Heep Кен был и остается одним из самых незаурядных авторов и исполнителей классической хард-роковой сцены...

Музыкальная карьера Кена, родившегося 24 августа 1945 г. в Лондоне, началась в конце 1960 г. как гитариста самодеятельной бит-группы The Blue Notes. Затем последовала работа в составах Ken And The Cousins и Kit And The Saracens, вторая из которых в 1963 г. превратилась в соул-группу The Jimmy Brown Sound. С эти коллективом Кен даже записал несколько песен. Двумя годами позже музыкант разочаровывается в стилистике соула и создает вместе с будущим гитаристом The Rolling Stones Миком Тэйлором (Mick Tailor) свою первую серьезную группу The Gods. Здесь Кен пишет почти весь материал, исполняет большую часть вокальных партий и играет на инструменте, в конце концов прославившем его - электрооргане Hammond B3. В начале 1968 г. The Gods подписывают контракт с лейблом "Columbia" и записывают для него два альбома и несколько синглов... http://www.zvuki.ru/A/P/29837

...The Gods' line-up included, at one time or another, vocalist and guitar/bass player Greg Lake (later of King Crimson and Emerson, Lake & Palmer), bass player Paul Newton (who would be later the first Uriah Heep bassist), drummer Lee Kerslake (later also of Heep), bassist John Glascock (later of Jethro Tull), and guitarist Joe Konas... http://www.ken-hensley.com/

The Gods are probably better known for including a few famous British rock stars as members — before those musicians went on to international recognition — than they are for the two albums they actually released. Two future Uriah Heep stalwarts, keyboardist/singer Ken Hensley and drummer Lee Kerslake, both played on those albums, and prior to the first Gods band album, both Mick Taylor and Greg Lake had passed through the lineup. The two Gods albums were undistinguished, keyboard-based rock that were midway between late-'60s British pop-psychedelia and early-'70s heavy progressive rock. They were less histrionic than Uriah Heep by a long shot, but nor were they very distinguished, settling into the second or third class of late-'60s British rock music.The Gods started in Hatfield, England in 1965 as a blues-based band including Hensley and future Rolling Stones guitarist Mick Taylor. Taylor left in 1967 to join John Mayall & the Bluesbreakers, and the Gods disbanded for a few months before reforming, with only Hensley left from the first version. Greg Lake played in this lineup for a while, but quit before the Gods' debut album, Genesis was recorded in 1968; soon, of course, Lake would resurface in King Crimson and then Emerson, Lake & Palmer. Genesis didn't make much of an impact, nor did some non-LP singles, including a 1969 cover of "Hey Bulldog," quite possibly the only attempt at making that obscure Beatles' song into a hit. The Gods disbanded in early 1969, though a second album, To Samuel a Son, was posthumously released in 1970. Both Gods' albums have been reissued on CD by Repertoire, with the non-LP 45's added as bonus tracks. by Richie Unterberger http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&uid=UIDMISS70311080141392963&sql=B6wtqoawabijv
