April Fool

April Fool
Nadja Petricks Debüt-LP, produziert in Peter Gabriels Real World Studio,1991.
Erhältlich im Online-Handel.
Review: "The year was ’91, and the Norwegian music magazine BEAT was still bloody good. Later the magazine got much weaker in both creativity and quality, before it was laid down for good. But that’s another story. Well, Nadja Petrick was given a good review in the magazine, which I read and became pretty curious about it. But soon I forgot the whole thing……….
Months later, I was raiding the bargain bins in some music shops in my area and stumbled across the cd of Nadja Petrick at a ridiculously low price. I bought it of course and since that day I’ve played it nearly to pieces ! And I’ve introduced it to friends who got the same experience as me.
Judging by her heavy accent when she sings, and her name, Nadja Petrick is probably of Eastern Europe origin. I usually respond a bit negative to accents in when it comes to the English language. And believe me, when you’re Norwegian as me, you’ve heard a lot of it !
But something’s different with Nadja’s vocal chords and singing style. It got loads of charm, nearly naive sounding at times and has got this wonderful husky expression. Besides writing all the lyrics and music, she plays guitar as well. Joey Balin, the producer is responsible for the clever arrangements.
"You Are The Only One” is a catchy mid-tempo tune with clever keyboard-work from Simon Clarke and some great soul filled backing vocals from a quintet behind Nadja. A marked, steady, rhythm pushed forward by drummer Manny Elias is the core of the great "Borderline” with some distant screaming guitar, probably delivered by David Rhodes. It’s his kind of style. The title track "April Fool”, is a beautiful song, pretty quiet and again with more guitar from David Rhodes, excellent keyboard-work and Pino Palladino’s warm bass. Makes me think of David Bowie, for some reason. A really outstanding song ! "Don’t Beg Me No More” has this easy acoustic riff, some light drumming and with no other than Danny Thompson on contra bass. A lovely song which makes me think of Lou Reed, it could easily have fitted in on his great "Transformer” album” !! Things get more funky on "Jumping So High”, one of the tracks I don’t care that much about, but the follower "Darlin’” is just great ! It’s catchy as hell with the earlier mentioned backing vocalist doing a great job, lifts the track with their gospel-choir style and makes it hard to sit still. "Ain’t No Road” is more melancholy with it’s acoustic expression, strengthen by a distant cello and accordion in the background. Goodie ! On "When The Wave Rolls In” the power increases considerably and is a catchy sing-along track. "Turn Out The Light” is a beautiful ballad with some nice piano and slide guitar and the overall sound is pretty grandiose. Nice album closer !
The voice of Nadja Petrick is probably not everybody’s cup of tea, with it’s accent and rather special expression, but I just love this album, I can tell you that ! It’s an album full of good pop songs done with feeling and respect from a bunch of good musicians."

Sirens of Berlin

Sirens of Berlin
Compilation-CD von 17 Berliner Sonwriterinnen, 2005.
Preis: 16,90 €.
Review: "Eine Compilation über Berlins Songwriterinnen-Szene ist ebenso wichtig wie überfällig. Zusammengestellt von Maik und Doreen Wolter, die sich seit Jahren für und in der Akustik-Szene der Hauptstadt mit dem Bluebird Café und der Acoustic Invitation engagieren, entstand ein spannender Sampler, der gleich in meherer Hinsicht verblüfft: Zum einen wegen seiner stilistischen Vielfalt, zum anderen wegen des erfreulich hohen Niveaus – auch in der Breite. Lauter Berliner Sirenen – einige mehr, andere weniger bekannt – haben sich zu dieser Produktion versammelt, um jeweils einen Song zu präsentieren.
Um nur einige Highlights zu erwähnen: Zum Beispiel die Songwriterin und Multiinstrumentalistin Jeanette Hubert (Don´t hang over me), die stimmgewaltige Wahlberlinerin Mckinley Black (It´s never too late).
Oder die Sängerin und Gitarristin Kerstin Blodig (Solbønn) diesmal abseits ihrer Projekte Kelpie, Touchwood und Norland Wind. Anhänger von Country-Klängen kommen bei Nadja Petricks `Too much liquor´ auf ihre Kosten, Freunde des französischen Chansons werden Bérangère Palix (Libellule) ebenso schätzen wie die Berliner ihre Lokalmatadorin Simone Reifegerste & The Shevettes (Take me). Mindestens so beachtenswert auch die bezaubernde Songwriterin Jenny Weisgerber (Soul shelter). Die "young bluegrass"- Interpretin K.C. McKanzie (Son of the devil) oder die Songwriterin Indijana (Lachen wie ein Kind). Und das sind längst noch nicht alle: Insgesamt 17 Künstlerinnen gilt es zu hören, zu bestaunen oder auch zu entdecken. Da ist mit Sicherheit die eine oder andere Überraschung dabei. Schöne Produktion." Akustik Gitarre
