Armin Mueller-Stahl

Armin Mueller-Stahl, the internationally famous German actor, has long been known as a gifted poet and painter as well. With this sequel to Der wien Vogel fliegen kann and The Blue Cow , we now have yet another one of his political songs, which the artist combines with expressive painting to produce a powerful, overall work of art. The lyrics were written in the mid-1960s. In strongly rhythmic and onomatopoeic words, Mueller-Stahl protested the insanity of the weapons-dealing, warmongering nations. Accompanied by his compelling, expressive, and inventive visuals, the lyrics and illustration combine to form splendid compositions. A pleasure for both the eyes and ears of all generations.
