Lothar Siems & Walter Quintus – Der Führer · Rock Opera (1977) XLD Flac 24Bit/96kHz = 1.8 GB | | Scans 400 dpi jpg | RAR Vinyl LP | EMI Electrola 188-32508/09 | Musical | Germany It's not easy to sort out my thoughts on this production. My parents have grown up in the 3rd Reich and have talked about their experiences on some occasions. And now I hold a 35-years-old record in my hands, that deals with their and my history, and has been censored, indexed, hidden for 35 years and still is, and the musical could never be staged. It tells me that nothing has changed since 1933, also today our leaders are pied pipers who don't want us to use our own brains, if they are called Merkel, Obama, Putin or Bin Laden. This is not a glorification of the rise and fall of the Third Reich in Germany in the 30s and 40s, but it's not a product of the peace movement or any other moral institution either. This musical gives an overview of the historical events as good as possible in 80 Minutes, and whatever your political stand is, the judgement is on you. The musicians were some geniuses way ahead of their time from the Hamburg Krautrock scene. The music is based on Krautrock, but lends some ideas from Evita, Rocky Horror Picture Show and other productions of that period. If your downloading these recordings be aware that this time it's not the music industry watching you, but your pied piper's secret service. And if you comment this post, you're welcome, but please keep in mind, that your comments tell as much about you as about the topic :-) There's an extensive review on RateYourMusic written by RDTEN1: This is easily one of the strangest albums in my collection and it's one I was hesitant to list for fear someone might mistake me as some sort of right wing nutcase. I'm not ... in fact as a member of the French resistance my mother was actually arrested by the Gestapo, dumped in a jail and only avoided being deported to a concentration camp when the US Army overran the prison she was being held in ... hum ... never thought that story would come up in a record review. So what do I know about 1977's "Der Führer (Rock Opera)"? German musicians Lothar Siems and Walter Quintus were apparently the brains behind the double album set. Siems and Quintus' musical partnership stretched back to the mid-1960s including stints in The Chamberlains, The Quintus Quartet, and a pair of early-1970s albums fronting the medieval/progressive influenced band Parzival. Parzival recorded a pair of albums before calling it quits in 1973. With that background it sure would be interesting to know how the pair (with an assist from Gisela Siems in the lyrics department), went from recording misdeal influenced tunes to this bizarre concept piece. Self-produced, the album featured a strange Anglo-German cast including Ian Cussick, Peter French, and Neil Landon. A 28 tracks, double album set, the plotline was pretty straightforward – tracing the rise and fall of Adolf Hitler. Condensing twelve years (1933–1945) into about an hour was itself a pretty impressive feat, but if you believe the hype, the recording sessions were surrounded by lots of weirdness including master tapes picking up strange sounds. Anyhow, billed as a rock opera, the collection was clearly written with an ear to some sort of stage production. The songs themselves offered up a mixture of pop and rock pieces (some of them quite good), but much of the set exhibited a distinctive theater feel. In reviewing the album it was also hard to draw a clear distinction between the music and the story plotline – 'Magic Man' was a perfect case in point. Musically the song was amazingly catchy sounding like something 10CC might have written, but the lyric's about Hitler's early magnetism on the German psychic made for a real mismatch. Great song, disturbing lyrics ... A good analogy was The Police song 'Every Breath You Take'. The track was a major hit when I was in college and I had friends who simply adored the song, not realizing the lyrics detailed the thoughts of a crazed stalker. Try to remember that when you're humming 'Magic Man' or 'What a Man!'. Please read the complete review, track by track, on RateYourMusic. Tracks 01. Ouvertüre · The pact 08:02 02.
