The delightful Klaus Voormann

Ace of bass

Klaus Voormann – our latest guest on Talking Germany – befriended the Beatles during their earliest days in Hamburg. He went on to share a London apartment with Ringo and George, play in the band with John and Yoko, and he has Paul on guitar and vocals on his new album. Along the way he also designed the legendary cover for the ‘Revolver’ album and played bass on some all-time great recordings.

• About this blog

  I’m really delighted to be the presenter of Talking Germany. Each week we have a new guest – and what fascinating people they are. Each of them has made his or her own very special contribution to making Germany such a vibrant and dynamic country. And it’s always interesting to find out how they tick by talking with them not just during the show but also before and after. Which is why I’ve also got a blog for you with behind the scenes impressions of the many notable and quotable people featured on the program. It goes without saying: we look forward to hearing your comments, too!

Here then are some of the most recent selections.
