@Dutchy,
freddy quinn - probably the best known german pop-singer in 50's and 60's .
Quote: Freddy Quinn was born Franz Eugen Helmut Manfred Niedl-Petz in Lower Austria and grew up in Vienna.
even though he was austrian by birth , he was best known fow singing 'schmalzy' songs of sailors , their longing for their homeland and the GIRLS left behind .
he really had no choice but change his name , did he ?
of course , we do have and play his cd's - what other choice do we have ?
