Thread Name: A walk in the Black Forest
Subject: A walk in the Black Forest
Hi,
thinking of great Horst Jankowski one question comes into my mind: why his 60' version of "A walk in the black forest" has been such a relatively great success in british charts?
As a german, I cannot fully understand this because it wasn't rock, folk, real pop or something else esteemed in this decade.
Was this success caused by a british tour, TV-appearance or big promotion by a record company?
For a better understandig: I like this track, but I still feel helpless in explaining why this happened.
Would/ could somebody please tell me?

Thanks in advance,

Manfred from German
