A selection of tracks wich makes me think: "Yes, this is the kind of music I really want do do!"
Thank's for every listen!!!! :-)))

My personal favorites of my own tracks and collabs

Though this collab was even harder to do than the last one I'd participated, I wanted to do it again :-)))). I also do not own the rights to this backing track.  It was so much fun to play on this. Me playing 0:50 - 1:38 and 2:26 to end.
Thanks to Tom Adams for the invitation!!! https://soundcloud.com/better-with-the-blues
Hope someone will enjoy :-)

Hello Chicago / Tom Adams & Andreas Kloppenburg

Badest Blues Beth Hart (Cover) -- Ms King & Andreas Kloppenburg

https://soundcloud.com/mskingjazzsinger/i-need-your-love-so-bad-guitarist-needed
Some weeks ago I tried to play to this great tune the first time. Didn't know how to do it then. After listening to the versions of Peter Green and Gary Moore (Hey Rog! ;-)) I got a feel how to play it *lol*.
As usual Ms King did a fantastic job on this cover. Thank you very much for the invitation! Always a pleasure to play along your tracks :-)))
Enjoy!

I Need Your Love So Bad (Cover)-- Ms King & Andreas Kloppenburg

This is the new version of "https://soundcloud.com/ndreasloppenburg/just-an-idea" with a huge input from Lawrence Farr. He wrote great lyrics for this tune and made a song out of my instrumental. Many thanks to Lawrence!! .-)) The song is meant as a homage to David Bowie and his relationship to the people of Berlin, especially to the people of East-Berlin. Again it was a great pleasure to work with Lawrence. Please check out his stuff https://soundcloud.com/awrencearr
Have fun with this song! :-))

Lyrics by Lawrence Farr (December 2016):

All along the wall, people staring out
Music hits the air
Freedom is just a stone's throw away
Freedom is just a stone's throw away
The sound of freedom is in our minds
And in our ears we hear the sound
Ground control to Major Tom, come and tear down this wall
Ground control to Major Tom, come and tear down this wall

Freedom is just a stone's throw away
Another day, another year, this time will pass, very soon

You couldn't take our will
You couldn't take our heart
You tried to tear us in half
But you could never tear us apart, you could never, ever, tear us apart
Because we, will, break free

Breaking down the wall, it feels so right
Breaking down the wall, it feels so right

Ladies and gentlemen, please make welcome David Bowie

Ground control to Major Tom, come and tear down this wall
Ground control to Major Tom, come and tear down this wall

Let's just tear it down
Just tear it down.

Freedom / ft. Lawrence Farr

This is the vocal version of "What If..." https://soundcloud.com/ndreasloppenburg/what-if-vocalist-needed wich was inspired by the riots and violence in the streets of Hamburg during the G20 summit on 07-08 July 2017.
Following my request for a vocalist, Chris gave it a try and he totally nailed it!!! Thank you very much, Chris!!!! :-))

Lyrics:

“Suicide City”

Can’t sleep tonight because the riots in the streets of Hamburg
Just another city, blow it up and head onto the night
Oh it’s such a pity and ain’t nothing going right here
You’d think our need to survive would finally start to kick back in

Suicide City (Suicide)
Suicide City (Suicide)
It’s a Suicide
It’s a Suicide
Ain’t Nothing Pretty in Suicide City
Ain’t Nothing Pretty in Suicide City
It’s a Suicide (x4)

Has the whole world gone mad?
Don’t we realize the goodness we had?
We have means but still wanna bleed
Just a matter of time ‘til we see the bloody heads roll

It’s suicide!

I use to fear the monsters and beasts
I’d pray to the Lord my soul to keep
From the dangers on the outside
Now I what find the thing is to fear the rage inside

Suicide City (Suicide)
Suicide City (Suicide)
Suicide City (Suicide)
It’s a suicide
Ain’t Nothing Pretty in Suicide City
Ain’t Nothing Pretty in Suicide City

Suicide
Suicide City (ain’t nothing pretty in suicide)

Can’t sleep because of the riots in Hamburg
When we blow it up we’re killin' ourselves
I think we’re gonna have remember
How to love again to survive suicide

Suicide City       (Feat.  Wild Christopher !)

My first collaboration with the very talented Yana Smutina. 

After listening to her music and reading the permanent collab-invitation on her page, I asked her if she would be interested to do a collab with me. She was :-) … a few weeks later *LOL*.

I thought, “Somebody Help Me” https://soundcloud.com/yana-smutina/somebody-help-me-music-and-words-yana-smutina would be great stuff to create a Rock ballad from.
Yana agreed and sent me the track stems after recording the whole thing again in a local studio. So I got voice and acoustic guitar separated for mixing and was able to add my spices to it. 

It was a pleasure to work with her. She always gave me great constructive feedback - what was great, what wasn’t and what has to be changed or replaced. The cello for in- and outro was her idea. I had a piano in my first song sketch, but now I think, the cello fits way better instead  😊 . To cut the song in two pieces and put a heavy solo passage into the gap was Yana’s idea too. She asked me to paint a musically picture of hell - “…a musical picture of hell with "Thunder and lightning”...”. I tried to do my best then – if I may mention that devil’s fart at the end of the solo? *ROFL*.

Please check out Yana’s stuff here: https://soundcloud.com/yana-smutina 
  
Thank you for working with me Yana. Big hug!!!! 
 
Volume to eleven and enjoy  our creation!!! 😊

Lyrics:

“Somebody Help Me”

I'm just walking in the circle of life
Nobody can see and nobody hear me here
I want to stop it all
I want to change it all

Somebody save me I need help
Somebody save me from this hell

I'm so poor and ugly but I've got a heart
But there's still no compation anywhere
I would like not to care
Pretend and just don't care

Somebody save me I need help
Somebody save me from this hell

I've found my gate in the green glass
I've found my way in the green...

Somebody Help Me  -  Yana Smutina & Andreas Kloppenburg

I'm a german guitarist who always wants to play better than he can *lol*. I love the sound of the guitar and I love guitars, their beauty and their smell. Never can get enough.
I wanted to make music since I was a little kid. I urgently wanted a guitar since the age of 10, I think. Unfortunately I got my first (classic) guitar not until the age of 18 because there was not enough money to buy one earlier. Well, since I've got my first guitar I nearly play every single day one of my darlings ;-).
Making my music public on the cloud is really a great thing for me. I love this community. Such fantastic musicians here...
I'm always interested in collaborating with talented musicians.
Thank's for visiting my page, hope you enjoy and don't forget: Music is everything!! Music is love!!! Without music, mankind would never exist anymore!!!!!!!!!

A NOTE TO ALL FOLLOWERS who only follow to get a refollow and then unfollow. Take a  warmhearted FUCK YOU!!! No like for a like, no refollow for a follow here.  I'll like what I like and I'll follow those who convinced me with their music!!!!

Cheers, Andreas
