Peter Petrel – I'm far too modest (Hansa, Germany, LP Vinyl) – Vintage

German original pressing on Hansa : "Ich bin viel zu Bescheiden" (I'm Far Too Modest) combines humorous, relatable lyrics with robust 70s rock/boogie and a warm, direct production. A charming piece of German-language entertainment music somewhere between pub rock, Schlager (German pop) fringe, and tongue-in-cheek storytelling. The accompanying lyric sheet completes the collector's package.
