DIE CONDITORS - s/t LP 1982

The Conditors was founded 1980 in Dortmund and first they initially texted in English, but soon switched to German. Peter Freiberg had already sung and played the drums with the folk rock band Cochise, the other band members had released the LP "Another Sunday Morning" (1979) with the band "Messalla". In 1982 their first LP was released, which offered solid Rock/New Wave with humorous German lyrics (New Wave in the direction of The Police, so influenced by reggae and punk). The music express wrote: “The Conditors please because of their, let's call it anarcho-touches. Sure, the boys haven't come up with any topics that can be attested to as having never been roasted on records. Nevertheless: Singer and lyricist Peter Freiberg has quite convincingly managed to make his points of view clear and personal!”. In 1982 and 1983 they went on a concert tour through Germany and Switzerland. Peter Jureit switched to rough cutting and was replaced by Philipp Imdahl. With the single "Aba Sia Maria" they had their first radio success. The Conditors soon became one of the more well-known bands from the Ruhr area, along with vulture dive. In 1984 they released their second LP Dankeschön Bitteschön and the WDR showed a 30-minute film about the Conditors: how to play upwards and the single "Kalt Wie Eis" often played on the radio. A hit followed with the single raspberry ice cream in hot tea, with which they appeared twice in the ZDF charts. In 1985 the group changed its name to Freiberg & The Conditors, in 1986 the third and last album "Pass Auf"was released. 1989 followed the compilation "Am Andren Ende Der Stadt 80-88". Peter Freiberg and Peter Jureit have been playing in the band The Buh since 2010. In honor of guitarist Uli Steinert, who died in 2010, several former band members gave a concert with the bands "Messalla" and "The Buh" on September 10, 2011 in Dortmund and only songs were played written by Steinert.
