Well, nothing to expect while Rio was still alive – between Claudia Roth (introduction) and suburban disco you get a few minutes with the master himself, and then everything that you hear on radio for the sake of German language quota, in order to exploit the works of Ton, Steine, Scherben. You´ll hear Kinderzimmer Productions, Reinhard Mey and die Söhne Mannheims also – is it necessary to say more? The only highlight is Keimzeits Interpretation ‚von Mensch Meier´. If you really enjoy that, you better listen to old Scherben-stuff!
