MY DARLING CLEMENTINE | AUTHENTIC CLASSIC COUNTRY FROM THE UK

got a mail from my buddy DR. KAI HOFFMANN with this wonderful music hint: MY DARLING CLEMENTINE from the UK. here just some reviews to their newest and second album THE RECONCILIATION?…

“This is a great album. A finely crafted all original tribute to the classic country duet” | The Guardian

”One of the most exquisitely pained American country albums of the year comes from this British couple” | New York Daily News – Top Ten Album of the week

“A baker’s dozen of originals that sound like they came straight out of the June/Johnny-Emmylou/Gram-Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazelwood catalogs. This is as authentic as anything out of Nashville or Texas…A batch of superb C&W corkers.” | American Songwriter, USA  **** 4/5

“Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the best British country record ever!” | Duncan Warwick, Editor – Country Music People.

“Truly a great record” | Chris Hillman (The Byrds, Flying Burrito Brothers)

KELLERKOMMANDO “DUNNERKEIL” | GERMAN “VOLKSMUSIK” THE OTHER WAY

i do not know if i really like this, but at the moment i can’t stop listening to the new album “DUNNERKEIL” from KELLERKOMMANDO, bayreuth, germany. the guys KELLERKOMMANDO cross rap, hip hop elements, heavy drum & bass beats with classic polka, folk and german bar songs from the last 100 years. especially the changes in the songs are nice to hear, always surprising and exciting: what will happen in the next second of the song. and the german texts are interesting to listen at. my favorite song: “MEIN NACHBAR” … great! funny, the “fränkisch” dialect. pics & videos | © KELLERKOMMANDO, Marc Wiessler, Severin Schweiger
