The first solo album by Inga Rumpf, the one who made the musical revolution in German rock since the late 60s and early 70s as part of the Frumpy and Atlantis bands. She was called the German Janis Joplin. The owner of a magnificent and inimitable voice, she actually created the image of these groups. In short, Inga Rumpf is as important to Frumpy and Atlantis as, say, Rod Stewart is to Faces. As she herself recalled: “When writing songs, I was most influenced by blues and jazz, which contributed to my musical maturation” ...<br /><br />Tracks:<br />01. America — 3:39<br />02.
