Glam rock and cheesy schlager music from the German pop-rock band Nighttrain from Berlin. All very well produced and with juicy drum breaks and driving percussion grooves. The group’s only album also contains their best-known hit single HALLO BIMMELBAHN (written by Michael Holm, Heinz Huth and Jürgen Huth). This tune was covered by Frank Farian’s BONEY M. in 1979 with GOTTA GO HOME to much greater commercial success, and yes, it was then sampled again on BARBRA STREISAND by Duck Sauce, Armand van Helden and A-Trak (aka Alain Macklovitch). But watch out! Each of these songs is an incredibly painful earworm. It’s not easy to get them out of your head once you’ve heard them. So please listen very carefully.
