RARITY # 40


ROLF KUHN'S KING SIZED CLARINET
45 RPM (EP) - BERTELSMANN 66 000, GERMANY  c.1961?
This one is for the completists only. I warn you as it is much less exiting than my previous Rolf Kuhn post (EP Holiday in Europe).  There were always two sides to Rolf Kuhn’s musical talent: on the one side the pure, hard swingin’ jazzman and on the other the easy-listening,  commercial,  schlager band leader.  Jazz is nice but I guess one has to eat sometimes …






ROLF KÜHN'S  "KING-SIZED CLARINET"
Rolf Kuhn Septett feat. 
Rolf Kühn, clarinet
Horst Jankowski, piano
Wolfgang Schlüter, vibes
others unknown

 Side A:
1. Ain't She Sweet (Ager/Yelen)  2:51
2. My Yiddishe Momme (Yellen/Pollack)  2:47

 Side B:
1. Dizzy Fingers (Zez Confrey)  3:01
2. Sweety (Fr. Schoder/R. Kuhn)  2:10


Recorded probably 1961/62.

      Thanks Luis. Based on the overall sound, I may be tempted to agree with Lord (for once). Cheers.

    Kühn knew how to earn a little money...

    He even did easy versions of Black Sabbath and Santana tracks, see
