Rockin With The Krauts – Real Rock N Roll Made In Germany Volume 5

The CD sweeps off with Germany's King of Rock and Roll, the great Ted Herold. Ted delivers one of his famous and well-done cover versions of Elvis Presley - Hey Baby (A Big Hunk O‘Love). Volume 5 of ‘Rockin with the Krauts’ again presents rough garage rock from the early ‘60s, the true genesis of rock and roll in the land of “poets and thinkers.” With Chuck Berry's Beautiful Delilah, The Phantom Brothers prove that maracas were handled appropriately in the land of the Sauerkraut. Their punky sound ditches the Rolling Stones, sweeps away the Downliners Sect, and anticipates the sound of the ‘80s and ‘90s. The Pralins rock Chuck Berry in a somewhat more civilized way - with a lovely Kraut accent and a chilled-out attitude. Lou Reed is nothing compared to that. The German Bonds with I'm a Hog for You Baby and The Rollicks with the eternal garage anthem Louie Louie sound the same note. The beach parties on the Baltic and North Sea with illegal fires and legalized marijuana are guaranteed - let's rock! The compilation also includes classics in Northern Band and Jump style, such as Mr. Patton aus Manhattan by Werner Hass (why look for an artist name when your dad has thought of it?) and 3 Minuten Rock by Suzi Miller and the Starlets—sometimes three minutes is enough. Mal Sondock, who brought the hit parade to German-speaking households in the Rhineland and Ruhrgebiet via radio station WDR, voiced his destiny with Hey, Hallo Baby (Komm zum Record Hop). But the real hits are the unobvious titles: At a time when every German pop singer had to have an exotic name - or rather an exotic accent - Franconians also had a chance to make a record! Rudi Büttner (which sounds almost like Rock-a-Billy), at the end of the 1950s, anticipated the excessive Anglicisms of future times. Denglish Doobie-Dam-Dam. The insider tip of the CD comes from the British Rhine Army, Mönchengladbach: Doch Du lässt mich nie allein - a haunting rhumba that leaves us disturbed but aroused. Humor, horror, and rock and roll - the Germans did it - do it - want it!
