Customer Review

With "Front is the light" were the Puhdys for me the first time into the consciousness. During the X. World Festival of Youth and Students of this song belonged to the permanent camp radio repertoire in the tent city Wulheide. At that time I was delicate age 12. "In front is the light we are ahead", who did not want this world politically sein.Auch "bricks" and "The sun knows its way" to give combative and revolutionary text by Wolfgang Tilgner (which accounted for most of the texts of these two LP's ) and the Puhdys gave the whole the right sound.
The composition for "From the love song" comes from Peter Gotthard, which was known as a film musician. An example of the experimental handling of the medium rock music (as in other East German groups also, for example, Stern Meissen).
"Doors open to the city" -the first television appearance of Puhdys-here in the studio version. Dieter Hertrampf contributes with "Summer Night" as a composer to this album. The title joins today a rather rare among the Puhdys. I can not remember ever having heard him on the radio or in concerts me anyway. With "Ikarus" succeeded the Puhdys a highlight in Deep Purple style.
"Go to her," and "If a person lives" and "From the love song" written by Peter Gotthard functioned as film music in the DEFA Strip> The Legend of Paul and Paula "long-distance running" is placed first in the GDR -Hitlisten place. 4
The gentle ballad "Song for generations" is derived from the musical bassist Harry Jeske and was a hit in the discos.
Many of the songs are story songs (eg "children"; text: Burkhard Lasch), ending with a moral accent. With stones "and" two-player game, the Puhdys could "place in the charts and met the spirit of the times.
Legal bizarre presents itself "Jodelkuh Lotte". Stylistically questionable, it would today probably be charged to Krautrock. Small allusions to the people's police, with no nasty hidden agendas.
This shekel presents German rock of the 70's with straight lines and witty lyrics, while in the other part of Germany Udo Lindenberg with the "Andrea Doria" herumdümpelte years.
