Wolf Biermann????
I currently very much enjoy Chausseestrasse 131.
It is a brilliantly written and performed German poetic folk album of 1969, and by now there is no one yet, who achieved to be that class.
Wolf Biermann has managed to just demonstrate what free speech is, the free speech of a superior poetrist, that led him to be disrespected fought against by both the socialist government in the former German Democratic Republic aswell as West Germany, where he emigrated to later. Both hemispheres couldn’t take his artistic impact and opinion.
Well, he was a Bohemian aswell, and that might be the reason why the disrespect. No government in this world yet can take the reasoning of someone, who enjoys life and freely talks about everything.
Here’s images out of that time.
