Out of Print: The Food Band

flyer-project by snoid studios (never used, afaik)
The story of that band from Cologne is quickly told: They seemed to get sucessful, grabbed a record deal with WEA, recorded a (imho) wonderful first album, recorded a second ... and that's the whole story as far as I'm aware of it. Goldi (unikult) organized their first concert in our hometown 1977 at the so called "Pfingstival" and a second show 2 years later, when the record was released.

The story "ended" like this. After his studies at the Saarbrücken University Goldi moved to Cologne and started as the manager of what became of the "Food Band", "Wolf Maahn & Die Deserteure", singing in german 



In an interview with DLF, the biggest german public radio, the female interviewer asked (to my very surprise) him about the Food Band ... and didn't get an answer on that

He's still active as musician
