By chance, I won at the local radio stations two tickets for the current Klaus Hoffmann concert - and was surprised at how much he had missed me. Klaus Hoffmann, old fellow traveler of Reinhard Mey and even the veteran German music history, Udo Lindenberg, is still the old - but much better. This album is marked by the common thread of the "Island of Songs". And so are a lot of dreams, memories, longings. The lyrics are beautiful and allow us to reflect, the melodies catchy and right earwigs. And with a bad conscience, I then dug out my old MCs, found that many, after more than 20 years, have become faulty and started a large order - because such an artist must never be forgotten.
