1.0 out of 5 stars Freddy Auf Hoher See
This is the most disappointing CD I have ever purchased. I have an old MGM vinyl by the same title "Auf Hoher See" although the song listings differ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Freddy on the high seas, July 22, 2008

This review is from: Freddy auf Hoher See (Audio CD)
This CD is an exact copy of the Polydor vinyl that I bought in Germany in 1963. I had nearly worn out that old vinyl and was pleased to get the CD so I can continue to enjoy the songs that introduced me to Frddy Quinn.

I really like this album, I've enjoyed Freddy's singing for 30+ years. The album came in good time and in good shape.
