Bap - Live from Burgtheater Dinslaken, Germany, July 16, 2022 (snippets)

Fantastic open air concert by one of Germany's most popular bands, BAP, playing many of their legendary songs along with some deep cuts and recent numbers. All lyrics are performed in the traditional Cologne slang, which is difficult to understand, even for most Germans. Nonetheless, the band have been enjoying nationwide success for more than 4 decades.

BAP as a band have undergone multiple line up changes without breaking stride in their creativity and/or proliferation, with founder and band leader Wolfgang Niedecken being the only consistent member since the very beginning around 1976.

BAP 2022 are:
Wolfgang Niedecken (voc/git/tamb)
Ulrich Rode (git/bvoc)
Anne de Wolff (down with CoVid at this gig) (multiple instruments)
Werner Kopal (bass)
Axel Müller (sax/git/bvoc)
F. Johannes Goltz (trombone/cello, sitting in for Anne)
Christoph Moschberger (trumpet/bvoc)
Michael Nass (keys/bvoc)
Sönke Reich (dr/perc/bvoc)
