Love, schnapps, death - Wader singt Bellman is an album by the singer and songwriter Hannes Wader from 1996.

Emergence

According to his own statement, the songwriter had wanted to make a Bellman album for 25 years. Already on the album Hannes Wader: Volkssänger (1975) Wader released three songs by Carl Michael Bellman , namely Das Notabene , So trolln we ourselves and while at this source .

According to Hannes Wader, he had already received several impulses for the production of this album, including from Hein Hoop , who had already provided lyrics for his album Hannes Wader singt Shanties (1978) and who had since passed away. Hoop had translated some Bellman songs into German.

The idea of ​​recording Bellman songs also came from Klaus Hoffmann, who expressed the desire to do something with Reinhard Mey and Hannes Wader. He suggested singing Bellman songs back in 1992. In 1996 it finally came with this album.

The previously produced album 10 songs should be the last album with original compositions by 2001, when the album Wünsche appeared. In addition to the Bellman album, An dich hab ich denk - Wader singt Schubert (1997), the live albums Appearance: Hannes Wader (1998) and Was für eine Nacht , a sound document of the summer tour 2000 with Konstantin Wecker, was released by then .
