Masterpiece number 1

His fourth studio album made in 1978 Westlife star overnight and teen idol. His lyrics were snappy, creative, telling the "real life" and had always chasms. This topped with a good dose of rock made in the long years of his albums. And on "with peppermint I'm your prince," there is the blueprint for it. And besides, he does not care about common sound dictation. He roars here the songs down and creaks into the microphone that it's admirable how he confidently an album "runterrotzt". That was after Lindenberg probably the first album in the mainstream from Germany that "gequängelt" with as many corners and edges through the ear canals has. Already the first song "At 18" is a classic and rocking violently away without hesitation. An autobiographical song about his time as a singer in 'ner band in Dusseldorf (Harakiri Whoom). More classics are of course the rock 'n' roll from the title track, the evil, hard-rocking "thickness" and the last song "Johnny W." About this 4 songs must not write much one. These pieces everyone knows about 25, even if he is concerned in any way with Westlife. But the other songs are strong as an ox. The functional influenced piece "Willi usury", the rock 'n' roll of "Oh, Margaret," the ballad "All in the Wind" and "Giselher" or the song "Give my comrades" which deals with RAF Germany sets apart. Especially the lyrics are simply awesome. In 10 songs 10 issues are addressed whose characters all find themselves on the album cover. And if serious issues or slapstick, here everything has its place. And although that's the artistic peak, he could level the next year even hold. Milestone German pop culture.
