Philly native Don Paulin singer and songwriter, settled down in Germany in the mid-60s and made a living by recording numerous 'folklore' LPs, a style that occupied everything from nursery rhymes via skiffle to fake protest.
In 1967 he moved to Munich, where he met the German jazz masters Ingfried Hoffmann and Siegfried Schwab who agreed to produce "Me And My Papagayo". This rare album was released in small amounts only on the German Liberty label in 1969 and fuses jazz, blues, psyche, Latin and bossa beats in a truly unique manner, using a percussive mouth sound where the tongue, teeth and breath form an additional instrument.
