Suzanne's Song (Dance on) will be released as the new single, at
15.01.07. Sivlersonic Records wrote (in German): "Seit
Ende der Siebziger Jahre ist der britische Musiker John Watts
bereits im Musikgeschäft erfolgreich. Seine Karriere begann er als
Sänger, Songschreiber und Gitarrist der Band "Fischer-Z" und hatte
Hits mit Songs wie "Marliese", "Room service" oder "Cruise
missiles".
Seine Solokarriere startete John Watts nach Auflösung der Band im
Jahr 1982, aber veröffentlichte weitere Alben unter dem ehemaligen
Bandnamen, später unter seinem eigenen. Insgesamt sind von
"Fischer-Z" und John Watts mittlerweile über zwanzig Alben
erschienen.
Für sein neues Werk "It has to be" hat er sich auf eine Reise durch
elf verschiedene Länder Europas begeben, hat mit ihm unbekannten
Menschen gesprochen, sie gefilmt und jeweils Songs über diese
Begegnungen geschrieben.
Die erste Single ist "Susanne's song 'Dance on'", die Mitte Januar
veröffentlicht wird.
Das Album "It has to be" ist ab Ende Januar erhältlich." |
