Klaudiabolo - Lampenfieber

Review by Jefferson Virgílio

Album Review: Lampenfieber by Klaudiabolo – A Pop Gem from 1982 Germany Released in 1982 under the MMG label, Lampenfieber by Klaudiabolo is a fascinating slice of German pop history. With its quirky charm and heartfelt delivery, this album feels like an intimate diary entry from Klaudia Hochhuth, the creative force behind the project. Backed by a talented crew—including bassist Florian Ihle, drummer Peter "J.J." Horst, and producer Martin Berschel—Hochhuth crafts a record that balances introspection with catchy melodies. The title track, "Lampenfieber," immediately grabs your attention. It’s one of those songs where you can almost feel the nervous energy radiating off the stage. The lyrics explore pre-performance jitters, but there’s also something universal about it. Who hasn’t felt that mix of excitement and dread before stepping into the spotlight? Hochhuth’s vocals are warm yet vulnerable, supported by Peter Didaskalu’s shimmering keyboards and Werner Kracht’s subtle guitar work. You don’t just listen to this song; you live it for three minutes. Another standout is "Vollmondgefühle" (Full Moon Feelings). This track has a dreamy quality, as if the moonlight itself wrote the melody. Reiner Regel’s saxophone adds a sultry undertone, while the rhythm section keeps things grounded. There’s a raw honesty here, like Hochhuth is whispering secrets only you’re meant to hear. Tracks like these remind us why albums—not just singles—are so important. They let artists stretch out, tell stories, and create worlds we wanna revisit. What makes Lampenfieber special isn’t just its sound—it’s the people behind it. From Mary Jane Doobie’s cover design to Elisabeth Tobies’ evocative photography, every detail feels intentional. And kudos to engineer Ben Ahrens and Birger Holm for capturing such crisp audio. Even today, decades later, the production holds up surprisingly well. But let’s not sugarcoat it—this isn’t some flawless masterpiece. Some tracks, like "Nie Wieder Klassentreffen" (Never Again Class Reunion), lean a bit too kitschy. Yet, that’s part of the album’s charm. It doesn’t take itself too seriously, and neither should you. Reflecting on Lampenfieber, it strikes me how much music has changed since 1982—and how little human emotions have. Sure, streaming services have replaced vinyl records, but the feelings of anxiety, longing, and joy remain timeless. Listening to this album feels like flipping through an old photo album. It’s nostalgic, yes, but also refreshingly real. And hey, fun fact: did you know “Lampenfieber” literally translates to “stage fright”? Kinda ironic for an album brimming with confidence, huh?

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s something cool: The 1982 German pop album *Lampenfieber* by Klaudiabolo was a team effort with some quirky credits. For instance, the same guy—Peter "J.J." Horst—handled both drums and percussion. And get this: the album's design was done by someone named Mary Jane Doobie, which sounds more like a chill artist nickname than a real person. Oh, and it includes tracks with titles like "Reeperbahnmädchen" (which hints at Hamburg’s famous district) and "Traumhafte Inzucht," which translates to “Dreamy Inbreeding”—definitely an intriguing mix of themes!
