Cindy Ellis – Fieber<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Cindy<\/p>\n

# BCD 16649 AH – Bear Family
\nReleased: June 2003<\/p>\n

CD premiere under the Bear Family Records<\/a> label for an artist who was actually thought to have disappeared. Over 40 years after their initial release, 20 songs by the singer Cindy Ellis are available as a compilation on compact disc.<\/p>\n

The alto with the voice as excellent as it is attractive was promoted and produced by the orchestra director Bert Kaempfert, whose attention had been drawn towards the young interpreter in 1959 when he heard a tape with test recordings and, recognizing her great talent, invited her to come to Hamburg. The Hamburg music journalist and writer Bernd Matheja managed to trace the singer after searching for many years. In the accompanying booklet (with photos, documents and a discography by Richard Weize), he tells the story of Cindy Ellis \u2013 an artist between pop and chanson who has been difficult to find in the relevant literature so far.<\/p>\n

With its excellent music, the CD \u201cFever\u201d fills another gap in reprocessing the history of German light music from the 50s and very early 60s.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of March 2002, the 1979 legendary album \u201cEins & Eins \u2013 Hildegard Knef & Bert Kaempfert and his Orchestra\u201d, was re-released in special remembrance of two great artists. It includes Hildegard Knef\u2019s great successes from the 60s in a joint session with Bert Kaempfert, whose arrangements lent them a fresh touch.<\/p>\n

In addition to Bert Kaempfert\u2019s characteristic sound, the album includes another four of his hits, L.O.V.E.<\/em>, Danke Schoen<\/em>, Remember When<\/em> and Petula<\/em>. This song track which Kaempfert originally wrote as a purely instrumental track premiered on the LP as a song title: Du hast mir so gefehlt<\/em>. The song Der Mensch muss unter die Leute was written specially for Knef by Kaempfert. There are also four instrumental tracks from the Bert Kaempfert Orchestra as bonus tracks, making this CD a particularly appealing musical experience. In addition to the Intermission Riff from the 1978 SWING album, there are three tracks from the 1979 album SMILE: the title song of this LP, I Cried For You<\/em> und Just You, Just Me<\/em>.<\/p>\n
