Anyone familiar with his records could recommend a "Best of CD" where could find the original recordings?
Thanks
Alex

Apparently hes a swiss austrian singer songwriter (buried in Vienna) who won the Eurovision song contest the year England won the World Cup. Surely you all knew that? wink

This one seems to fit the bill:
https://www.amazon.de/Best-Udo-J%C3%BCrgens/dp/B002K8BJGE

The selections were done by Jürgens himself and the tracks cover his decade long career with just about any track on the disc a hit in its day. Definitely a good overview.

Thanks Nicolai , indeed seems like what looked for. An excellent songwriter, knew him from the Matt Monro covers of his songs. The original songs were extraordinary , of which only had "Merci Cherie", glad this late decided to hear more.
Thanks again
Alex

Jurgens worked with Faltermeyer a bit in the 70s/80s.

The bastard child of Udo Kier and Curt Jurgens?

Never heard of him, I'm afraid, but thanks for the heads-up!

Perhaps, you should check out...

DER MANN MIT DEM FAGOTT

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1688640/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1

https://www.amazon.com/Mann-Mit-Dem-Fagott/dp/B005CZ7ESE/

This 2-CD-Set contains a best-of the songs by Udo Jürgens - but also the orchestral score by Udo Jürgens + Nic Raine - performed by the Deutsches Filmorchester Babelsberg.

Thanks for the heads up Fifloe, definitely a film to watch and a good CD set.
Any musician who's written over 1,000 songs of such high quality has my attention.
What a life!
Thanks again
Alex
