Biography

German lyricist born December 20, 1923 in Essen-Bredeney, one of numerous aliases for Wolfgang Neukirchner. Due to his profession as professional judge, he picked those aliases to not mix up professional life and his musical career, which he worked on in the evenings, as he said in an interview. Röckelein aka Neukirchner died in 2017.
