Gus Backus - Memories Of Heidelberg

Review by Florence Le Vot

Memories Of Heidelberg by Gus Backus is a captivating album that takes listeners on a nostalgic journey through the streets of Heidelberg. The album is a perfect blend of traditional German folk music with a touch of rock and roll, making it an enjoyable listen for people of all ages.

The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Heidelberg, du bist wunderbar" which sets the tone for the rest of the album. Backus' powerful vocals and the lively instrumentation make this track an instant hit. The album also features a beautiful rendition of the classic German folk song "Lorelei" which showcases Backus' range and versatility as a singer.

One of the standout tracks on the album is "Einmal in Tampico", a song that tells the story of a sailor who falls in love with a woman in Tampico, Mexico. The song is a perfect blend of German and Latin music, and Backus' vocals are particularly impressive on this track.
