  FORMATION, DESTRUCTION AND RETURN

  Toten Herzen were formed in 1973 when Suffolk based rock promoter and scrap metal merchant Micky Redwall put the band together following a gig at Hooly Goolys in Ipswich. Bekker and van Voors' original band was After Sunset from Holland, whilst Vincent and Daley came from the British band Cat's Cradle.

  Between 1973 and 1976 Toten Herzen sold over eight million albums, but their success was cut short on the night of March 21st 1977 when all four members were murdered by Lenny Harper. Harper was never charged and the band disappeared for thirty years until they were found by Rob Wallet, a British music journalist, and persuaded to make a comeback.

  This is the first part of the story of their comeback.

  PART 1: SALVATION

  1 (April) 2013

  "What about Toten Herzen making a comeback?"

  "What?"

  "A friend of a friend knows Rob Wallet-"

  "Knows who?"

  "Rob Wallet.”

  "What about him?"

  "The Toten Herzen reunion?"

  "Oh, them. They'd be about two million years old, wouldn't they?"

  "Hasn't stopped the Rolling Stones."
