Rolf Harris shows his lesser known side. During his 35-year career as a children's songwriter, he also wrote albums for adults. A selection out of which he presented with his new best-of CD My life Songbook. The 20 pieces are intended to reflect the stages of life of the 67-year-old hamburger. In a 48-page booklet, therefore, he explained in addition to the lyrics as they arose. The title children grow up, he sang for the first time, for example, the night before the wedding of his daughter Anushka and only for them. The silent dirge ahead, he wrote a step at the deathbed of his mother. The album can be heard well by the way, but who is studying the playbook, learn Zuckowski know as attentive, and socially critical man. A funny anthem against environmentally destructive projects is it about managed with concrete, formed 32 years ago, now published for the first time. The chorus is irresistible. Each child's mouth will sing along him. The second first publication of the album impresses with a strong text: I want to feel the anxiety that always awakens new to you, with my fear forms an alliance that makes us a bit more, according to the piece I want you rest in you. Harris had written it in 1979, when he celebrated the first success with his school-hit parade. Musically the album is always catchy, but diverse. The chorus of truly great people of guitarist strikes a reggae rhythm. The radio hit life is more vibrant with a mix of country and folk. Everyone knows everything, no one knows is reminiscent of the German New Wave. Almost bombastic sounds of the chorus of Julia. The album shows the thoughtful man who is in the cheerful children's songwriter. Recommended.
