Mein Berchtesgadener Land

Album US on Capitol Records label
Pop, Folk, World and (Folk)

Sixth Capitol Records LP Label, used 1962 to June 1968 (third rainbow label). First cat # on cover, second cat # on center labels. Subtitle: "Bavarian Popular Music by Gemany's Alfons Bauer" Performers: "Alfons Bauer (zither) und die Königsseer Musikanten" & "Die Hinterseer Viergesang und der Volksliedchor von Radio Salzburg" are listed as one artist respectively. There are no visible separation of the tracks on the record - and only very short pauses! Alfons Bauer, famed Bavarian zither virtuoso and impresario, has gathered together an array of talent that represents the best types of music heard in and near Berchtesgaden. The yodelers, the cowbells, the raucous clarinets and trombones are all here, presenting a generous crosscut of authentic Alpine melody, along with the famed echoing Königssee trumpet, a traditional sound that mists the eyes of everyone who come to know "my Berchtesgaden country." [from liner notes] Recorded in Germany Produced in U.S.A. by Dave Dexter, Jr. Made in U.S.A. [add. info: recorded 3 - 6 May 1960 in München and Salzburg]
