Cliff Carpenter Und Sein Orchester

The German Studio-Orchestra played mostly instrumental cover versions of popular hits. It was founded in 1968 by Dieter Zimmermann, aka Cliff Carpenter, at Metronome and moved with him to Ariola in 1972. After the death of Zimmermann in 1978 the leadership of the orchestra was taken over by Alexander Gordan and producer Michael Kudritzki. Its final album was released in 1990.
