Sleeve Notes

"Hi, Folks,
we call it the 'Zwiebel Phenomenon', that instant warm, spontaneous rapport with the Hamburg audience who sang along tirelessly from the first line of the first song. As long as we had songs to sing they were willing to listen. How they listened, how they laughed and sang with us. Thanks Folks, it was a Zwiebel night we'll remember forever. Special thanks to Wolla and Uli behind the bar and for many other Zwiebel nights too lads! To Volker, Gerry and the recording team behind the switches and to the friends, many of whom travelled long distances to join us in the fun. And a final thank you to the man who ensured the success of the evening … Mr. Guinness."
