I was a kid when I loved Bert Kaempfert's work. I still do at age 66, and even better I can spell Kaempfert.

Your friend.

Its time to introduce the latest generation of music lovers to Bert Kaempfert!

With the great dearth of decent music in these times young people from all

over discover they love the marvelous, tuneful and happy music of Kaempfert.

Bert Kaempfert really had classic trumpet solos such as this version of Skokiaan.

While searching and listening to every version of this song, I saved Bert for last because I just knew he'd nail it!

The Carlings from Sweden do a very lively verslon of this tune....it's well worth hearing. Yes, it's better than this one.

I heard this piece in the mid '70s on Kaiser-owned KBSC-TV Channel 52 in between programming. About 25 or so years later, I bought Bert's album "That Happy Feeling" containing that song on CD (track 12). Haven't heard it in about 25 years since channel 52. Thanks so much for posting this great piece of Bert's work! Well done!!!
