What'd I Say, to cite The Gisha Brothers and Ray Charles: The Krauts are rockin' - for the fifth time. Over the last three years, Bear Family's 'Rockin' with the Krauts' CD-series has become one of the label's most successful. The first editions sold out quickly and had to be reprinted regularly, and fans were hungry for more kraut, sorry, rock and roll.
The CD sweeps off with Germany's King of Rock and Roll, the great Ted Herold. Ted delivers one of his famous and well-done cover versions of Elvis Presley - Hey Baby (A Big Hunk O'Love).
Volume 5 of 'Rockin' with the Krauts' again presents rough garage rock from the early '60s, the true genesis of rock and roll in the land of 'poets and thinkers.' With Chuck Berry's Beautiful Delilah, The Phantom Brothers prove that maracas were handled appropriately in the land of the Sauerkraut. Their punky sound ditches the Rolling Stones, sweeps away the Downliners Sect, and anticipates the sound of the '80s and '90s. The Pralins rock Chuck Berry in a somewhat more civilized way - with a lovely Kraut accent and a chilled-out attitude. Lou Reed is nothing compared to that. The German Bonds with I'm a Hog for You Baby and The Rollicks with the eternal garage anthem Louie Louie sound the same note. The beach parties on the Baltic and North Sea with illegal fires and legalized marijuana are guaranteed - let's rock! Humor, horror, and rock and roll - the Germans did it - do it - want it!
