More than just another pop singer

Exactly 25 years after the end of the Holocaust was an actress and singer from Israel to a big star in Germany - almost as if this were perfectly normal, indeed almost been taken for granted. But it was not there and it is not until now.

The beautiful Daliah Lavi with the smoky voice had eleven top 30 singles and five Top 30 LPs in the seventies. Their most successful period was the years 1970 to 1973. Their photos and posters from the BRAVO hung in hundreds of thousands of children and young people of both sexes rooms. The girls at my school wanted either as Uschi Glas as Vicky Leandros or as Daliah Lavi look.

She was the uncrowned queen of the German cover version, for example, of songs that originally written and / or sung by Peter, Paul & Mary, John Congo, Melanie, Gordon Lightfoot, Simon and Garfunkel, Cat Stevens, Joan Baez, Ella Fitzgerald, Hellen Reddy, Anne Murray, Mac Davies, Rod McKuen, Billie Jo Spears and FR David. And: The Lavi was always more than just another pop singer. Much more.

This is a double CD with 36 singles and album songs from the years 1970 to 1982. Wonderful.
