Product description

Herbert Grönemeyer's "4630 Bochum," released on August 14, 1984, under the label Before Grönland, is a seminal work that perfectly captures the essence of the Neue Deutsche Welle and German pop genres. This album, spanning just 38 minutes, is a vibrant collection of 11 tracks, each remastered in 2016 to bring out the best in Grönemeyer's distinctive voice and the infectious melodies that define this era.

From the opening track "Bochum" to the lively "Mambo," the album is a journey through themes of love, life, and the human experience, all wrapped in a sound that is both nostalgic and timeless. Songs like "Amerika" and "Flugzeuge im Bauch" showcase Grönemeyer's knack for blending catchy rhythms with thoughtful lyrics, while tracks like "Für dich da" and "Jetzt oder nie" highlight his ability to connect with listeners on a deeply personal level. The album's title track, "4630 Bochum," is a nod to Grönemeyer's roots, adding a layer of authenticity and warmth to the collection.

"4630 Bochum" is not just an album; it's a snapshot of a pivotal moment in German music history. Whether you're a longtime fan of Herbert Grönemeyer or a newcomer to his work, this album offers a rich and rewarding listening experience that continues to resonate decades after its release.

This is a 2024 Limited Edition Numbered released as a LP.

  • Grönemeyer's Breakthrough Hit Parade

    4 out of 5 stars
    TansezYidCaktuqJanuary 7, 2026Deutschland🇩🇪

    The album that launched Herbert Grönemeyer's big breakthrough. Especially the A-side, everyone probably knows almost every song by heart to sing along!

  • 80s hits by Grönemeyer

    5 out of 5 stars
    lifxju_kfAugust 9, 2025Deutschland🇩🇪

    This album is just packed with hits and marked Herbert Grönemeyer's commercial breakthrough. Anyone who grew up in the 80s can sing at least five of the ten songs here by heart. That's not the only reason "Bochum," "Männer," and "Alkohol" made it onto my "80s Party" compilation. I can only think of cover versions from later albums, one really successful one: "Männer" by the Black Fööss, but also one less successful: "Flugzeuge im Bauch" by Oli P. By the way, the city "Bochum" only appeared on German maps after the song of the same name. Herbert Grönemeyer didn't mince words even back then, as you can hear in "Amerika." Of course, you still had to refer to the lyric sheet to understand some choruses correctly, for example, "Wascht ihr nur eure Autos" in "Jetzt oder nie." I always had "Fangfragen" stuck in my head faster, but lyrically, it's a masterpiece. The intro of "Erwischt" could have actually come from the Black Fööss. And the most danceable track "Mambo" ends this record with the gag "Danke James." I think I'm not alone in saying: Thanks, Herbert, for this great album!

    Unfortunately, I didn't read these reviews beforehand. My record also has the mentioned quality issues and hissing noises, especially on the first side.

    One of the greatest, if not the greatest work by Herbert Grönemeyer, although others are also worth listening to!
