Eric Helgar - Dreaming Of The South Seas [Träumen von der Südsee] (1937)

Performed by: Teddy Stauffer mit seinen Original-Teddies Vocalist: Eric Helgar Full Song Title: Träumen von der Südsee Recorded in: 1937 Ernst Heinrich "Teddy" Stauffer (born 2 May 1909 – died 27 August 1991) was a Swiss bandleader, musician, actor, nightclub owner, and restaurateur. He was dubbed Germany's "swing-king" of the 1930s. He formed the band known as the Teddies (also known as the Original Teddies or the International Teddies), which continued after he left in 1941. Annual trips to St. Moritz and Arosa, and also a guest appearance in London, were responsible for the international fame of the Teddies band. Until 1939, he appeared with his Original Teddies-Band especially in Berlin and Hamburg. With his jazzy swing music, however, Stauffer increasingly got in trouble with the Reichsmusikkammer. Teddy Stauffer passed away in 1991 in Acapulco. Following his death, his ashes were scattered in the Pacific Ocean, as per his last wish. Eric Helgar (born February 8, 1910, in Regensburg – died June 14, 1992, in Munich) was a popular German singer, stage, film actor & composer of the 20th century. Born during his father's tour, Swiss opera singer Gustl Helgar, Eric Helgar came into the world in Regensburg in 1910. He grew up in Zurich. At the age of 17, he moved to Berlin to live with his grandmother. There, he met Herbert Grenzebach, a friend of his father & the artistic director of the Ultraphon record company. Optimistically, Grenzebach said to Eric Helgar, "[...] if your father has such a magnificent voice, you should be able to sing as well!", & invited him for a trial recording. Grenzebach's assumption was correct, Helgar secured his first record contract. Eric Helgar owed his film career primarily to his popularity as a young record & radio tenor. His initial recordings were made for the Ultraphon label in December 1930 in Berlin, & thereafter, from 1932 onwards, almost exclusively for the newly established record label of Telefunken. However, during the early years, until about 1935, Helgar also worked, sometimes anonymously, for numerous other Berlin record companies. Helgar's interesting, diverse, & versatile repertoire was carried by a pleasant, clear, expressive, & easily recognizable voice. It ranged from simple hits to tangos & sophisticated operetta melodies - such as those by Ralph Benatzky (e.g., Telefunken A 1702, 1934); & included equally demanding chansons & cabaret recordings to big-band swing from the late 1930s to the early 1940s. He made his film debut in 1933 with "Was Frauen träumen" & a year later, he played the lead role in "Der Springer von Pontresina" The song "Wir wollen Freunde sein für's ganze Leben" from this film became a popular hit. From the mid-1930s, Eric Helgar became one of the main vocal interpreters of Adalbert Lutter's popular dance orchestra for Telefunken, including at least one propaganda piece for the National Socialists (e.g., "70 Millionen - ein Schlag" 1937). Helgar is occasionally credited as the composer of his own songs, such as the summer tango "Wo Meereswogen rauschen" (TO Lutter, Telefunken A 2513, 1938, see the list below). He continued to appear in films until the end of World War II, including "Gauner im Frack" (1937), "Friedemann Bach" (1941), & "Romanze in Moll" (1943). In addition, he lent his voice to less musically talented actors like Karl Schönböck in the film "Der Blaufuchs" (1938). In 1944, Helgar was listed in the Gottbegnadeten-Liste (God-gifted List) of the Reich Ministry of Public Enlightenment & Propaganda. Eric Helgar recorded well over 1000 records with many leading German dance orchestras, making him one of the most significant German-language vocal interpreters of the shellac record era.
