1963.JPG

"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, arranged/conducted by Claus Ogerman.  Below is a translated 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...."
