Gunter Gabriel: Gunterwegs (CD)

1-CD with 16-page booklet, 15 single tracks, playing time 55:54 minutes. 

Timeless, great album from 2002 including all lyrics and with comments by Gunter Gabriel in the booklet.#

Like no other artist, Gunter Gabriel has become a symbol - for movement, an eventful life and songs that move.

Gunterwegs' is the latest work of an artist who has taken care of the interests of all those people who earn their money hard behind the wheel on the roads between Flensburg and Garmisch-Partenkirchen - no matter whether they are rocking a 30-ton diesel, overnight transporter, assembly printer or station wagon with product samples through the country. When his record managers mocked him 30 years ago, he got his way, his success and his fans proved him right.

Gunter Gabriel is not the nation's trucker, but someone who knows the highways of this country like the back of his hand, who talks to the people at the rest stops and who knows where the shoe pinches - a friend of all drivers, as he characterizes himself in a song.

Gunterwegs' is by no means just a truck album. It tells stories of people in motion - on the motorways as well as between Santa Fu, the famous Hamburg prison, and the hard reality in freedom, between the beautiful view of a penthouse apartment and the murky view in the cellar.

They are stories about the journey from north to south and from top to bottom and vice versa. Travel songs, road songs, truck & roll, country music, German pop music - no matter which drawer you put up, Gunter Gabriel doesn't really fit into any of them.

Gunter Gabriel remains Gunter Gabriel, the only proletarian singer of the republic who does not mince his words and omits no taboo. This is his motto and he makes no secret of which side he stands on - where even those who came to the Economic Miracle have involuntarily taken their place. So it is not surprising that especially the people in the new federal states understand Gunter Gabriel's message, cheer him on at concerts and have taken the'Wessi' into their hearts.

He is also a local poet in the best sense of the word, a German boy who despite everything loves his country and so also dedicates a serenade to the Köhlbrandbrücke in his adopted Hamburg home.

This album is the soundtrack to a never-ending journey, and his request "Come with me on tour" can be taken seriously.

Gunter Gabriel - Freiheit ist ein Abenteuer.

Gunter GabrielThe man singer with the guitar. Just a moment ago the big Gunter GabrielBlonde had to sign an autograph between a salad plate and an apple juice spritzer. On a white paper napkin. At noon Gunter Gabriel often eats here, at Klaus', in a snack bar somewhere in the labyrinth of Harburg harbour. Klaus, the innkeeper, always has good things on his menu, home cooking and fried food and his prices are cheap, says the lunch guest in the washed-out black jeans and the pointed cowboy boots. He likes it. Everybody in this pinte knows him, at least from TV. Everybody calls him by his first name: "Hey, Gunter, what's going on?"

 

Gunter Gabriel is prominent, but therefore far from unapproachable. He's an anti-star. One who has nothing to fall into his lap, who has had to bite his way through his whole life, he says, while he lets himself be inspired by Klaus' homemade herb. Above all, Gunter Gabriel is one of them, the Malochern. Even though his last big hits may have been a while ago and he may have relegated from the Bundesliga to the Kreisklasse in the meantime, as he puts it, Gunter Gabriel has never been out of the window, and many fans have remained loyal to him for years.

 

For despite all the success that rolled over him, when Gunter Gabriel began in the early 70s to capture the state of mind of the so-called "little people down there" and process it into songs, he remained a buddy; one who understands how to express what many think; one who speaks the language of the people and to whom, in return, one pats the shoulder without inhibitions.

 

"My heroes are the women and men everywhere in the land who do the work day by day, quiet and unrecognized. My heroes are all those who often overlook. And yet basically making sure that the wheels turn" (from: Meine Helden, M+T: Gabriel, 1977) When a new CD would finally come, asks one of Klaus' regular eaters in the orange overall from the next table over. "I'm in the process of recording new footage. Just got out of the studio. But it will take a little longer," answers Gunter Gabriel. A pop singer? No, he doesn't rhyme 'heart' with 'pain', but 'differential' with 'works council election' or 'whole man' with 'highway'.

 

Gunter Gabriel's songs are like a warm, firm handshake.

 

A songwriter? Yes, but he doesn't let himself be nailed down politically (and he's closer to rock 'n' roll than to chanson). But he never kept his perspective on things to himself: He sang about radiation sludge from the nuclear laboratory (Der Mann hinterm Pflug, 1982) and the steelmakers' fear of impending unemployment (Rheinhausen, 1988), about German soldiers in ex-Yugoslavia (Es steht ein Haus im Kosovo, 1999) or the farewell to the D-Mark (Bye Bye Deutsche Mark, 2002). Gunter Gabriel reveals himself in the songs, his music often bears his biographical stamp. Not everyone feels addressed by it, but his followers like the honesty and passion of his everyday and asphalt poetry.

 

The toughest boys are always the ones who cry secretly and can be incredibly romantic. In Gunter Gabriel's deep trucker voice you can hear the loving, the irretrievably nostalgic and romantic, the unswerving belief in goodness and love at every tone.
Elke Heidenreich, Cologne, January 2011
