Munich's 800 Years

 
Artist: Various Bavarians
LP: Munich's 800 Years: Authentic Music of Bavaria
—Side One
[ listen ]
—Side Two
[ listen ]

As you can tell by the pained expression on this lovely fräulein's face, carrying six full mugs (plus two jugs) all at once is a task that is neither easy nor enjoyable. But still it's worth doing in order to keep Munich's reveling crowds of yodelers, tuba-players and knee-slappers in a perpetual state of jolly intoxication. This record doesn't include any breaks between tracks, so I decided to go ahead and post the entire wacky thing. The pictures, drawings, track list and liner notes from the back of the LP are included below, and here's a list of musicians featured on the record: 

Alfons Bauer
Rosl Günther
Georg Blädel
Ado Riegler
Alfred Pongratz
Reserl Bauer
Heinz-Maria Linz
Weiss Ferdl
Dr. Emil Vierlinger
Jodler Duo
