BAP

Aliases: Wolfgang Niedecken's BAP
Country: Germany
Comments: One of the most successful rock acts in Germany with eleven albums reaching #1in the German charts. Nearly all of BAP's lyrics are written in Kölsch, the dialect of Cologne. The band's name derived from "BAPP", both, a play-on-words on the Kölsch word "Papp" (German word for "dad"), but pronounced differently and Wolfgang Niedecken's nickname at the time.
Members: Wolfgang Niedecken Vocals, guitar (1976–present)
Major [DE] Guitar (1980-1999)
Jens Streifling Saxophone (1996-2003)
