Good Oom-pah Band Music, Oct 5 2005

This review is from: An American Oktoberfest (Audio CD)
As the manager of "The Oktoberfest Webring," I thoroughly enjoyed this album. Geared for American audiences, all of the songs were tuneful, and most of them are familiar to Americans. Some were sung in German, some in English, and some were bilingual. The voices were pleasant, the sound quality was excellent, and each rendition was lively, colorful, and entertaining. The whole presentation was quite professional, done in good taste, and definitely NOT a brawl scene. I highly recommend it.

Don't waste your money!!!!!!!!, Aug 29 2008
By D. Pope - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: An American Oktoberfest (Audio CD)
I bought 4 Oktoberfest CD's for my upcoming Oktoberfest. This was hands-down the worst one of the bunch. Now, I am sure the female singer is a nice person, but her singing is...how can I say this nicely...I can't, it is painful to listen to! Sorry, but it really is. Especially on Edelweiss and Du, Du, liegst mir im Herzen where she solos a bit. The whole recording has an overall Karaoke sound. The gentleman singer's voice is marginal. The songs lyrics sung in German are so overenunciated, again especially by the female singer, that one gets the feeling of someone reading the lyrics for the first time. I was so disappointed because I thought this Cd was just what I was looking for. Oktoberfest music sung with English lyrics. Now I understand why you cannot sample their songs before you buy. To boot, this was one of the more expensive CD's. My favorite of the 4 I did buy was, "Oktoberfest in Germany," for $5.49. I don't even have the heart to resell this to an unsuspecting buyer. This goes right into the trash! Oh well, you live and learn.

A truely great CD!!!, Aug 23 2009
By F. Henry - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: An American Oktoberfest (Audio CD)
This is a great CD!!! I love the combination of German and English vocals. If you don't speak German, this is a real treat. The English lyrics let you know what the songs are about. The entire recording is very well done. And, the accordion player on this CD is wonderful! All of the songs on this recording are most requested during Oktoberfest season and are played lively and upbeat. I've heard this CD played in several German restaurants and there's always a few guests singing along. I have to admit I don't understand the German lyrics, but the male singer sings in English and has a wonderful voice. This is a keeper. I highly recommend it!
