Press reviews

“Anyone who knows the musical jack-of- all- trades and Kneipler from Oberweiling knows that Golly has played the“ Stalker Blues ”in various versions and visions on all of his previous releases. Here now he presents a collection of no less than 18 versions from the last 15 years. And: none is like the other, or even boring. This CD shows the musical range and the constant tension in Golly's music using the “Stalker”. Those who have not yet heard of any of his productions should see this disc as an incentive to explore this musical universe. (Rating: phenomenal) "
