Have you ever experienced that?
In the pub late at night for a Hans Albers-song penetrates from the speakers. Beer Selig put some down her glass and smash tidy with. Some roles even melancholy little tears from his eyes.
Because Hans Albers (1891-1960) schnodderte so delicious about the trips in all over the world, his hometown Hamburg and the Waterkant.
When you hear his voice, you can literally smell the salty sea air, the verottenden seaweed on the beach and the freshly caught fish of the returning boats. And if his voice dried up, you can even hear the warning foghorn of a rescue cruiser.
Wanderlust and homesickness united - calls the adventure!
That he never actually visited the lands and seas, they did not receive this lovely "singing sailor" evil - because about one really does not need to chat!
RATING:
5 starfish from the seven seas!
This TELDEC publication dates back to 1989 and has not been digitally re-mastered. Nevertheless, the songs sound clean and fresh - but frumpy also gorgeous.
CONCLUSION:
His singing can be very difficult to put into words, but his biographer Otto Tötter This was simply splendid:
"... This exciting mix of sentimental Suffgegröhl and pathtetischem Wehmutsgewaber. Since juchzt and hoots there, dripping and there bramarbasiert, schnuddelt and sobs, groans and shouts, and koddert kiekst it."
