It's hardly to believe - nearly 40 years after the success of the Karl-May-movies on the big screen here is an collection of 8 CDs topping everything else being released before. Not only the music of the movies of the 60ies but also of earlier May-movies are gathered on this superb collection, such as "Durch die Wüste" (1936) and "Die Sklavenkarawane" / "Der Löwe von Babylon" (1958/59). Also added is an brilliant booklet (better call it "book", as it is in LP-format) with information on the movies and lots of photos - for an rather huge amount of money - but for the fan every penny is worth-while. Have a look at it at Amazon.

Martin Böttcher - Original Filmmusik
2003, Peermusic CD 0103, with 8-page Booklet containing movie-posters.
37 tracks, compilation by Volker Rippe.
Can one believe that? 42 years after the first presentation on the big screen here is for the first time the almost complete soundtrack of "Unser Haus in Kamerun" on CD - and that even in STEREO!! Also for the first time on CD is "Straße der Verheißung" (regrettably in Mono), some tracks of "Auf Engel schießt man nicht", tracks of "Der Fälscher von London" (well, these have been already been on the "Kriminalfilmmusik 1"-CD, there something "new" old would have been better) and again for the first time on CD some tracks of Lufthansa-documentaries. The booklet doesn't tell of which (ts, ts, ts). As you are here and reading this, I can tell you: the track "Jet" is of "Eine neue Kraft" and the track "Elephants Honeymoon" is of "Highlife in Lagos". Additionally there are three bonus-tracks on CD, among these "Veras Melodie" of DERRICK "Der Täter schickte Blumen". View this CD at AMAZON.

Martin Böttcher - Pfarrer Braun und andere
2003, Colosseum, CST 8092.2 - 18 tracks
On the point of starting the pilots of a possible Ottfried Fischer TV-series there is a CD with five tracks of the two produced movies on the market. The rest of the CD contains tracks being already on older, yet no longer available CDs. These are also from TV-series as "Schöne Ferien" and others and there are also five bonus-tracks, previously released on the LP "Lovelights". View this CD at AMAZON.

Martin Böttcher - The Score
Jubilee Records, J26 - 14 tracks
Well, "The Score" does mean, that you DON'T have an Original-Soundtrack (OST) but, in this case, 14 cover-versions by leading producers in the style of Ambient, Downbeat, Electro and Nu-Jazz. Such unusual Martin Böttcher-interpretations you may never have heard before!

Karl-May-Melodien
(see "Record of the Month")
In 1966 Teldec issued the first compilation-LP with music of the successful Karl-May-movies. It contained the tracks recorded in stereo from the movies "Der Schatz im Silbersee" and from "Der Schut" and of other Karl-May-movies, all composed by Martin Böttcher. Even the original soundtrack-LP of "Der Schatz im Silberse" at that time was in mono and the music of "Der Schut" even wasn't released at all on LP. Warner Bros. Music Group has now released the original 12 Telefunken-tracks digitally remastered on a CD. - View and listen to the CD at German AMAZON (with Musik-Clips).

Kriminaltango - Schurken, Schwüles & Spelunken, CD with 28-page booklet, Bear Family, BCD 16562 AH containing four vocals composed by Martin Böttcher and sung by Tanja Berg, Belina and Elisabeth Flickenschildt

"GoGo With Uschi - 23 Swinging Tunes From German Comedy And Thriller Movies" published by Brigade Mondaine distributed by Indigo (EAN 4015698 676129, also available at their E-Bay-Shop) contains 23 rare tracks from the last seven cinema-movies of Martin Böttcher: "Dr. med. Fabian - Lachen ist die beste Medizin", "Bengelchen liebt kreuz und quer", "Ich schlafe mit meinem Mörder", "Verliebte Ferien in Tirol", "Klassenkeile", "Die Ente klingelt um 1/2 8" and "Willi wird das Kind schon schaukeln", including some very rare vocals by Ben Maxwell and Don Blue.

NEW Sonderdezernat K1,
CD with 20-page booklet, Allscore - ASM 036 / CSC 011 - with 31 tracks, 65 min.
Long before the crime series „Großstadtrevier“ the station NDR had with the series „Sonderdezernat K1“ 1972 already another successful detective series on air. 1979 the music was put together on an LP entitled „Mord im Dreiviertel-Takt“ with 12 tracks, although re-recorded for fitting onto that medium (but in stereo). The original versions of the series are here on this CD to be head for the first time in a world premiere.
