1975
This first album by Austrian (theatre and television) actress and songstress Heidelinde Weis was produced by no one other than Kristian Schultze. A very productive collaboration with a final total of three excellent albums as output. For the recording at the Union Studios, Munich Schultze invited some first-class accompanying musicians like Sigi Schwab on the guitar, Dave King on bass, Bernie Proc plays the percussion, and even the Austrian Clarinet legend Fatty George. With an extremely good result. The album contains several erotic vocal Jazz tunes like ICH WILL DICH and other pillow talk songs with ironic lyrics about sexual wishes and needs. Standout and catchy Bossa Nova, Soul-Jazz, and other funky stuff sung in German.
Rightly won this debut album the Schallplattenpreis der Deutschen Phono-Akademie E.V. (“German Record Critics’ Award”) for qualitative high-grade sound recordings. And after this big success, it was, also in 1975, released as INTERCORD Club-Sonderauflage. But aside from this wording under the logo and the serial number (27 768-1) it’s exactly the same record. Comes also in the nice designed gatefold cover that has as the third minor difference a matted surface treatment instead of lamination.
