Folk-rock singer Johnny Irion knows a good song when he hears it — even if it’s not in his native language. While on tour in Germany, Irion spent an evening drinking wine and talking music with his friend Michael Kleff, who introduced him to a staple of German pop radio in the Sixties, “Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht.”” refrain, Irion couldn’t get it out of his head, and he began performing it onstage while on tour in Europe.
Back in the U.S. in the Berkshires, where he calls home, Irion cut a live version of the song at the Stationery Factory in Dalton, Massachusetts, imbuing his rendition with a punk attitude. His friend Kleff, a host of German Public Radio, approved.Drafi Deutscher ’s hit ‘Marmor, Stein und Eisen bricht’ was way more than just a song that stuck in your ear. It became a classic that became part of your life,” Kleff says. “Many tried to cover it, with no great success. Until now. When Johnny heard it a few years ago in my home in Bonn, Germany, he was smitten. With his English version he now gave the song a new life while keeping the spirit of the original alive.
