"1963", Süddeutsche Zeitung, Germany,
ISBN #3866150679 (August 2005).[Book & CD set]
From one of a series of 50 book & CD sets
released by one of the largest German newspapers, "Süddeutsche
Zeitung" which cover the music of 1950-1999:
The book (seen above) on "1963" pictures the
Lesley Gore single "It's My Party" (arranged/conducted by Claus) and
mentions Claus Ogerman's name. This single hit the top of the U.S.
charts when Gore was only 17. It goes on to say:
"The 'Dramolett' about the birthday party was
backed by two experienced jazz musicians: arranger Claus Ogerman, who
in 1959 came from Germany to the USA, and producer Quincy
Jones...These two professionals arranged Lesley Gore's testimonies of
juvenile entanglement with such a subtlety, which is more due to
adult pop, as you can hear distinctly on "You Don't Own Me."
(Translated from the original German by Suitbert Kempkes).
"You Don't Own Me" is one of the tracks
included on the CD that comes with the "1963" book.

This "1967" book and CD set contains the "Wave"
track from the Antonio Carlos Jobim album of the same name,

portion of the book from the original German, which mentions Claus
Ogerman & Jobim:
"In conjunction with the original version
[of the title "Wave"] it has to be noted that the brilliant
arrangement is descendent from Claus Ogerman, the Munich composer and
arranger, who participates at all records which Jobim did in
1967...."
