1. Edition Koch Das ist meine Zeit
In "This is My Time," Howard Carpendale and author Stefan Alberti embark on a special quest for answers. They engage in intense conversations—sometimes as a generational discourse, sometimes as an exchange of ideas, and occasionally even as a debate. The singer discusses a wide range of topics, problems, and desires—in a way he has never done publicly before. He reflects on the values of life, the meaning of life, the dignified end of life, and current events in a rapidly changing world. He also touches on significant milestones in his life, his family, his vanity, his fans, and sometimes even bizarre and astonishing occurrences in show business. A business in which Howard Carpendale has thrived for around fifty years, as he has continually managed to redefine himself musically in impressive ways. Howard Carpendale.
2. Edition Koch Immer weiter
Boney M. were one of the biggest pop sensations of the late seventies: a disco band dreamed up by producer Frank Farian, who at the beginning was actually only looking for four pretty figureheads for his already finished songs. While Bobby Farrell and Maizie Williams remained largely that, the singers Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett soon contributed decisively to the sound of the project. The four of them first toured through small clubs, until overnight they became a huge success: "Daddy Cool" became a high-flyer and shot to the top of the German charts. From 1976 to 1978, Boney M. delivered seven number one singles in a row, and the quartet also landed numerous hits in the following years. Marcia Barrett begins her autobiography with her memories of these turbulent times, of crazy television appearances and daring photo sessions, of caviar, champagne and luxury hotels, but it also tells of the darker side of a life as a pop star: Farian demanded the utmost commitment from the four band members, who hardly ever got a chance to work in the studio, but had to be ready for gigs at any time. Boney M. travelled the world and were celebrated by their fans, but remained dependent on the whims of the mastermind who pulled the strings in the background. Barrett describes the mechanisms of the pop industry at that time in a fascinating and knowledgeable way, in which producers and managers tried to create hits with a lot of calculation, but at best saw their musicians as compliant puppets. For fifteen years, Marcia Barrett was part of Boney M., and this time shaped her life. But her private story is just as exciting, from her childhood in Jamaica to her earlier years as a singer, when she first tried to gain a foothold in England, then later in Germany. In the nineties, after the separation from Boney M., she finally had to master completely different challenges. Barrett fell ill with cancer several times, but fought her way back into life courageously and undaunted after each diagnosis: "Keep going" remained her motto despite all setbacks.
3. Edition Koch David Hasselhoff - Die Autobiografie
His highs and lows unflinchingly: The tumultuous life of the superstar, featuring numerous color photos from David Hasselhoff's private archive. David Hasselhoff is a superstar with light and shadow. His decades-long career is marked by fantastic successes as an actor and singer, but also by recurring alcohol problems. In his autobiography, he speaks openly for the first time about his personal crises and offers the reader deep insights into his innermost soul. David Hasselhoff became internationally known for his leading roles in the television series "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch," which have long since become cult classics. But he also achieved major success as a singer: in 1989, he recorded "Looking For Freedom" with German producer Jack White, which became the best-selling album of the year. In 1989, Hasselhoff sang "Looking For Freedom" at the Berlin Wall.

4. Edition Koch Semino Rossi Die Stimme der Herzen
Semino Rossi's predominantly female fans are at his feet. He has become indispensable in the major prime-time TV shows in the German-speaking world, and many unanimously agree that he is the legitimate successor to the famous Julio Iglesias. Eva Mang first met Semino Rossi in 1998 at ORF and has actively supported his meteoric rise through her magazine Musikanntenstadlpost. She shares a long-standing friendship with the modest star, which has particularly deepened in recent months with a growing admiration for the singer's musical talent and potential. Above all, the numerous conversations with Rossi fans and her own perception of the star's impact on his audience encouraged the writer to publish this book.
