Folke Jensen

Spending more than 20 years in the music business and looking back at an eventful career Hamburg’s legendary guitarist FOLKE JENSEN released his first solo single „Barabajagal“. A few people will well remember Ledernacken, FOLKE JENSEN’s project which was quoted massively during the Eighties and even entered the US dance charts. In the last few years FOLKE JENSEN produced the quartet of German songwriter Tilman Rossmy and played in his band. The first recording in his own name features his unmistakable trick guitar. Produced by author and musician Detlef Diederichsen from Hamburg (formerly of German cult band Die Zimmermänner, then producing FSK, Saal 2 and Ja König Ja) the session was completed by pianist Stefan Will (Grace Kairos, Maxim Rad) and vocalist Ebba Durstewitz (Ja König Ja). Trainspotters note: „Barabajagal“ was originally recorded in 1968 by Donovan, accompanied by Jeff Beck. (original 'Lounge Records' promo text) Read more on Last.fm.
