Volkwin has been on stage for over 30 years. For him, it's time to take stock and reflect on his achievements so far. With the CD "The Early Years," he presents a colorful retrospective of his songs from his band years since the early 90s. For him, the pieces represent a musical diary of his earlier creative period – before his solo years – and have a very personal meaning for him. The songs deal with the circus of emotions that everyday life offers. Some of the songs are in English, some in German. Three pieces are purely instrumental. With this re-release, Volkwin aims to make these forgotten songs accessible to his modern audience. The 19 tracks – including the previously unreleased instrumental track "In vivo guitar" – have all been remastered and are appearing on CD for the first time in this compilation. The portrait of Volkwin, created especially for this CD, was created by the painter Hardy C. Lugerth from Celle. The release is rounded off by a lovingly designed digipack gatefold cover with a comprehensive booklet and detailed explanations of the creation of each song.
