Franz Mayer Experience featuring Alex Köberlein

It has always been suspected, always known. Most of the major hits in pop history have been stolen. Plainly copied from originally Swabian songs from the last century. Especially American and English occupying soldiers took what they could. This is how world hits like "Rebel Yell," "Locomotive Breath," or "Baker Street" were created, while the original music from the Swabian underground almost fell into oblivion… What was then praised as cool, almost surrealistic English-language pop lyrics is, in truth, just a poor translation of the Swabian original. For example, the clear statement "Mein Vaddr war n harda Hond" became the rather pedantic "Papa was a Rolling Stone." This is now to be set right. Alex Köberlein (vocals, flute, saxophone), known from Schwoißfuaß and Grachmusikoff, embarks on what is likely the largest cultural rescue mission in Swabian pop history, alongside Ralf Trouillet (bass, vocals), Joo Aiple (drums), Matze Reimann (guitar), and Steff Hengstler (keyboards).
