Frank Eberlein, one of the best among the radio presenters and editors of this our country has for this appeared in 2009 with Sony Music Entertainment 3 CD box, with hits and rarities of born lankwitz on March 10, 1955 singer, composer and lyricist Marianne Rosenberg, the very informative booklet written. In the very first sentence writes Frank Eberlein: "It is probably one of the first that come to mind, you think back to the German pop hits of the Seventies." What he should have absolutely right undoubtedly. But that is only one side in the now ongoing since the 41 years of singing career Marianne Rosenberg. In 1969 she won a talent contest at the age of 14 years. Then she took her first record "Mr. Paul McCartney", which was her first big success. Many of the subsequent Hiterfolge from the 70s, are on CD 1 under the title "Songs of the Night" for the first time back in CD-quality, in the much sought 1990 remix versions before. Of course, include "He belongs to me", "Stranger", "Songs of the Night", "I'm just like you" and "Marleen". Moreover, their contribution from the German preliminary decision to the Grand Prix Euro Vision Song Contest 1982 represented "Blue Jeans Children" on CD 1, with which they reached only the eighth place. Also worth mentioning are still the also dating back to the 1982 record "The man from the cartel" and the German original recording of ABBA song "One Of Us" as "I saw your tears." CD 2 contains under the title "No more so as it was" some of the most interesting Maxi versions. These include those long-versions of "Thinking of you" (1989), "go past" (1989), "One, two, three" (I thought, it's over) (1989) and "And my smile will follow you "(1990). The latter title is here also in the English version as "My Smile Will Be Your Shadow". On CD 3 there under the motto "When the morning comes" again listen to some of the most challenging songs by Marianne Faithfull. Here are titles such as "Superstar" (1993), "Flowering Nightmare Land" (1993), "Every war is far" (1993) or "When the winter comes again" (1998) clearly do so. As bonus tracks are also still in this form previously unreleased instrumental versions of "I saw your tears" and "The Man from the cartel" from 1982 takes into account that have been found in the fundus of the record company RCA in the course of Master research in the archives. All in all, can be found among the total of 52 shots this 3 CD box, after 12 Maxi versions of hits by Marianne Rosenberg. Not only for this reason these present CD box would certainly be a very special recommendation for all fans of their music. The written by Frank Eberlein booklet contains a lot of information from the life of the artist, so that for absolute Marianne Rosenberg fans might represent a very interesting reading recommendation. The concept and title compilation of this publication was also the way in the hands of Frank Eberlein. Another reason why I would like to quote again from his booklet text completion: "Marianne Rosenberg has ... preserved that dignity that has become so rare among their colleagues. Was some of her songs also not devoid of kitsch, as she has never sung, said and done, what they be ashamed of something. And that's in show business very much. " A nice final word I want absolutely nothing to add.
