About Kiev Stingl
Singer-songwriter Kiev Stingl's discography totals three records, on Philips, Metronome, and Teldec. More than any other German pop artist, Kiev Stingl embodies massive deviance. In 1982, he was arrested by the secret police of Madagascar; accused of assisting the CIA in a coup attempt, he was imprisoned in Antananarivo (Ambohibao) and narrowly escaped a death sentence. On his release he entered Teldec Studios in Hamburg for the last time. When his desolate condition prompted Teldec to terminate the sessions in midstream, it marked the end of one of history's most promising and abysmal careers. The pieces on Hamburger Teldec Studios 1982 are based on those sessions' fragmentary vocal tracks.
