Everything about Radio Wise Guys totally explained
Radio is the ninth album of the
German a capella group
Wise Guys. It is built in the form of a radio broadcast: between each individual piece come jingles and other small tidbits, such as the news or sports. This stands as the first
concept album of the Wise Guys. The CD ranked #3 in the German album charts and stood for sixteen weeks in the top 100 of the charts.
Like its predecessor
Wo der Pfeffer wächst, the CD is purely comprised of
a cappella with no instrumentation and continues the tradition set by "Mad World" as being entirely self-composed. The majority of the songs were composed by
Daniel Dickopf.
Extra features
- When one plays a few minutes after the last song on the CD, "Zwischenbilanz", he can find a so-called hidden track that plays for three minutes and thirty seconds; it's essentially a snippet from one of their concert performances ("Kein Ohrwurm").
