Weelittledrummer - Wolfgang Niedecken

Ron - Fully aggree to what you wrote about Hannes Wader. And he is still going strong. Is on tour at the moment (Munich aso).

Mey's most successful song was L. Cohen's "Sus/zanne" I believe.

Sorry to say, but Wolfgang "Schobert" Schulz and Lothar "Black" Lechleiter are almost forgotten today. Schobert died in 1992. They made some great LP's in the 70'.

I don't know about the version of " Der Jazz kommt aus Hamburg" by Udo Jürgens but I do own this track performed by great Gottfried Böttger on blues piano. He is still part of a german talk-show doing the intro on piano aso. Although no folk-singer he was and still is one of the finest blues, boogie woogie and ragtime player of Germany. If you could have listen to his version of "Maple leaf rag" in "Onkel Pö" like I did in the late 60'…. Unforgettable.
