Об альбоме (сборнике)
Re-make or reinterpretation? Neither! In Klaus Doldinger's eyes, his new album Motherhood, which he recorded with Passport, vocal guests and soloists, is a review and location assessment. Motherhood already existed in the late 1960s and early 1970s. However, not as an album title, but as a project name with the preceding article The. It was under this nimbus that I Feel So Free was released in 1969 and Doldinger's Motherhood in 1970, two albums in which Klaus Doldinger realigned and expanded his musical language half a century ago.
Previously, in the early 1950s, he had played Dixieland jazz with the Feetwarmers in Düsseldorf. After that, the then very busy person got the Klaus Doldinger Quartet on its feet at the beginning of the 1960s. His first album was called Doldinger - Jazz Made In Germany in 1963. In terms of content, it already offered an outlook on the following musical and geographical stages of Doldinger. He traveled the world in a zigzag pattern, played in New York's Birdland, New Orleans and Morocco. It was inspiration expeditions from which his modern jazz and bebop conceptions should benefit enormously.
In between, he increasingly composed for television, provided branded advertising with small, memorable jingles and set the very first broadcast that had ever been broadcast in color on German television. The rest is well known: the film music for "Das Boot", "Die infinite history", the omnipresent "Tatort" insignia - Klaus Doldinger has co-adjusted the fine motor receptivity of West German auditory canals like no other German musician for at least six decades.
The interface between the jazz connoisseur's preference for free music, Soul and his undeniable melody-finding power was the project The Motherhood 50 years ago. »Back then, I wanted to play music that should be entertaining on a different, maybe even on a danceable level. Although Paul Nero, my light music alter ego, was chosen as the author of most of The Motherhood's songs at the time, the two The Motherhood albums were not pure light music. It was an exciting time: rock music opened up to jazz and the forms that are now known as 'world music', and soul became increasingly demanding. And I was in the middle of it, coming from jazz. The music from The Motherhood reflected that pretty well, ”recalls Doldinger.
He only recently became aware that he had a hand in the hybrid language jazz rock that was born in 1970, when he took note of the two old The Motherhood records again. As vinyl originals, they are long out of print and can only be found second hand for expensive money. The real motivation for the new recordings of 10 The Motherhood pieces and a number from the canon of his later band, however, is due to the awareness that the project The Motherhood was the blueprint for the band Passport.
The transition between Doldinger's jazz rock project and his band Passport, which continues to this day, becomes clear in the successive pieces Soul Town and "Loco-Motive" of the new album Motherhood. While the soul city that was created in 1969 grooved towards funk with the Hammond organ solo as a matter of course, the new arrangement of the Ataraxia classic picks up on the carefree sense of the melodic, but executes it in Latin jazz style.
An important feature of The Motherhood pieces was Doldinger's turn to song forms. The new recording of Turning Around comes up with a tangible surprise: Klaus Doldinger himself stood in front of the vocal microphone for the half-chanting lamento. The Blaxploitation-Disput song Women's Quarell was originally called Men's Quarell and was sublimely rewritten by China Moses to do justice to her penetrating female singer perspective. Meanwhile, Max Mutzke balances his gutural loudness in the song of dying with the new live-in-studio recording. Udo Lindenberg, who became the first drummer at Passport shortly after The Motherhood ended, gives the soul rocker again in Devil Don't Take Me - albeit more vocally than in the original.
The composition Circus Polka closes the 50-year cycle between The Motherhood and the new album Motherhood as an instrumental number with everything that Klaus Doldingers Passport has stood for since the early 1970s: clear structures, jubilant melodies and saxophone solos, generously created spaces for improvisation , and topics that, like the "crime scene" theme, will last forever. Wade In The Water with Joo Kraus on the trumpet finally leads from the motherhood album with a relaxed, groovy rhythm and aesthetic memory of times when German entertainment shows still wanted to afford big bands in the TV studio. This once again underlines the place of honor that Klaus Doldinger has long earned.
The composer, band leader and jazz connoisseur, born in Berlin and trained in Düsseldorf, has lived in Icking near Munich for decades. His special merits for the continued existence and progress of modern music from Germany have long been recognized several times - from the Federal Cross of Merit 1st Class, the Golden Camera, countless Gold Awards to the Adolf Grimme Prize. That is nice recognition, says Klaus Doldinger, but for him it is in no way as essential as the music. In order to start again at the age of 84 to find new starting points for his unique composer's handwriting, the energetic determination of motherhood made sense, he explains. As a listener, on the other hand, you don't have to ask yourself the question of meaning. Listening, enjoying and being able to see why Doldinger sounds the way he sounds today is almost a blessing.
