ALBUM REVIEW
Folding open the sleeve of the one and only Prof. Wolfff-album reveals a long-haired quintet. Unfortunately their names weren't listed, but the three guys credited for the compositions were presumably members of this obscure group. The seven songs were recorded in October 1971 at the Jankowsky studio, Stuttgart, produced by Jonas Porst (the Ihre Kinder-manager) and engineered by Klaus Reiser. Perhaps Porst's involvement explains why the result sounded like a cross between Ihre Kinder and Murphy Blend - strong political lyrics in German and folky arrangements coupled with a very prominent hammond organ played in a semi-classical style. Lied Des Teufels also recorded similar music, but Prof. Wolfff for the most part lacked sax and flute. In all, seven songs, all of them good, some great! A recommended album that unfortunately is very seldom seen around nowadays. (Dag Erik Asbjornsen) ...Digipak reissue contains previous unreleased bonus material.
