Various Artists ‎– "Denk Daran!" (Überblick ‎– SM 001) 1980


Well at least we know what Adolf and Eva got up to after faking their deaths and escaping to Argentina in a U-Boat; they recorded the opening track for "Denk Daran!".
Another Dusseldorf-ish self-financed,compilation of German New Wave, both conventional and experimental.Probably the worst track is the Beer Hall Punk of 'ZX',which has one scrambling for the skip button; and the best is a pick from Der Plan's 'Residents' impression,Pyrolator's minimal disco pastiche ,and Don Bartnick, with his recreation of an electronic 'Funny Farm'.

Tracklist:

A1 –Adolf & Eva "Det Is Nu Wehf" 2:37
A2 –Croox "24. Dezember" 2:51

This is a Christmas album, going by the titles. The Pyrolator track is "A Santa Claus Comes Into the Disco", etc. Why they chose to open with a non-Christmas track by "Adolf & Eva" is unclear, maybe to annoy their intended listeners' parents?
