Unbelievable:
the Doo Wop-Institution from Bielefeld is already existing for 30 years now!!!
The big boys are now presenting their anniversary album on PART. Proud 22
songs, 62 min. total playing time, CD in hardcover book cover with 40-page
4c-inside (all lyrics and credits, many historical photos, biographical
introduction).
Active
since 1988, the brothers Jens (lead / 1st tenor) and Daniel (baritone / bass)
Franke with Ralf Zur Linde (lead / 1st tenor) and Claus Peter Niem (2nd tenor)
are one of the world's best known active bands in the genre of harmony vocals.
Shortly after its founding, the quartet became well-known in the USA for genre
broadcasts - the debut single appeared on Ed Angel's CRYSTAL BALL label, and
the linernotes for "Big Boys" are now by Joe Conray (Dj Brad), who accompanied
the german band for a long time on DOO WOP RADIO. The Crystalairs have tried
out all directions, most recently even sang complete German-language albums.
The new work produced 22 songs in the classic band style, 20 of them own
compositions as well as from the movie "The Wanderers" known
"Stranger Girl" and the autobiographical key song "We Search
Only An Echo", an adaptation of Richard Reicheg's "Looking For An
Echo". For 14 months written, rehearsed, recorded and produced in his own
studio, simple orchestrated songs with the classic themes that provide the
brilliant, polyphonic harmony singing the best stage. A real
masterpiece!
