"Krug appeared in the familiar casual manner/.../and dispersed a series of political tops. /.../Total tried to give the impression that he was a victim of all sorts of the state," noted the an employee of the Ministry of State Security about the concert on 12 April 1977 in Wismar. It was not the first Manfred Krug concert, which was spying on the Stasi, however the last. Nine of the total of 15 planned concerts of the April tour had been cancelled, so the evening was in the Wismar Theater Manfred Krugs last GDR appearance.

Until the death of Krug Zicke was his drummer - on the tours as well as with most Album productions. The recording of the Theater an der Baltic Sea coast of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania has never been considered a album production, the technical possibilities and the correspond to the time at that time. But it is much more than that only a sound document. From the first tone onwards a soulful band, highly musical and yet very entertaining. Once again it becomes clear that Manfred Krug and the musicians around G?nther Fischer with their light-footed and yet passionate dealing with Swing, Bossa, Chanson and popular jazz created their own genre have this unmistakable and distinctive voice. In addition this unmistakable-markante voice with the fascinating jazz feeling and the casualness of the Timbre. Although the recording.
