MIND THE GAB was founded by Pixner Kurt and Gabi Freitag in January 1995 with Stefano Sgorbati. The initially formation was a trio with Kurt on guitar and vocals, Gabi on lead vocals and Stefano on percussions. After a period for 1 and a half year of playing live and writing songs together we decided to reinforce the group with two additional musicans. Charlie Schatzer on bass and Eric Frajria on drums and occasionaly a sax, with Michi Agreiter.
GABI played: ( Ibanez accoustic guitar and Shure 58 mic. )
She began writing songs at the age of 15 and played live with an accoustic guitar. 1984 she won a song contest and went to Berlin in the HANSA STUDIOS to make a recording session. In 1987 she travelled to London where she lived and played for 6 years and met some interesting groups like the FAIRGROUND ATTRACTIONS; STONE ROSES and RAGGA TWINS. In 1989 she met Kurt in London who payed a visit to some friends and came with his guitar to play in the underground and took a look at the music scene. In 1993 she came back to South Tirol and started to work with local musicans and to play her songs live with an accoustic guitar. 1995 she was asked by Kurt to play together in a trio and to form the new group MIND THE GAB:
Kurt played: ( Gibson Les Paulstandard, Fender Stratocaster, Höfner Nightingale Special and an custom made accoustic guitar. Gallien Krüger and Peavey Bandit Amps, Zoom 2020, AKG 1000 mic. Yamaha QY 20 )
Played and studied music with friends since 1987 but he is known from the ALUNA JAZZ BAND, which he found with the other members. It was the apprenticeship where he took his strong jazz, funk and latin influences and in arranging songs. In 1994 he tried to form a crossover projekt named THE PEX; with other local musicans, made some weird demotapes but didn ´t found the right folks to work with. In 1995 he asked Gabi and Stefano to join him in an accoustic trio.
Stefano played: ( all latin percussions and native instruments from all over the world )
He played in many local groups for many years but the most important was the great GIANLUCA MOSOLE GROUP an italian guitarist with a wide reputation and some great CD ´s on the market. He tourt for about 2years through Italy and met Nanà Vasconcelos and Airto Moreira. Played at the Rolling Stone in Milan and at the famous UMBRIA JAZZ: FESTIVAL:
Charlie played: Warwick 5 string and a SWR redhead bass amp )
He ´s a good friend over the years and was persuaded by me to join the band, although he plays the guitar. I guess he ´s much better on the bass..... gell Charlie!!!!
Eric played: DW drums and joined the group at the studio sessions.
He playes in several bands and you can hear him on a few PERPETUUM MOBILE productions..

CD FACTS
" Natural high " is the title of our CD.
I think it represents all the styles me and Gabi were influenced by and you can hear a strong jazzy, funky heritage from my time at the famous " ALUNA Jazz Band ".
We didn ´t had the money to put the lyrics on the label, but now you have the great opportunity to take a look a the storys Gabi wrote and get a closer information about the recording sessions. Enjoy the trip !!!!!!!!
The Cd was recorded in springtime of 1998 at Perpetuum Mobile Merano and produced by MIND THE GAB.
4 songs were recorded 6 month earlier for a demotape that we sended around the world and to have a demonstration tape to organize live concerts. At that time we played our live concerts as an accoustic trio with a sequencer. ( Gabi vocals, Kurt acc. guitar and vocals, Stefano percussions ) For the demotape we engaged Mario Punzi as drummer for the following songs: "all about songs, natural high and what a shame" .
As we finished the recordings of the CD, these 4 songs
were remixed and some new instruments added.You can hear the strong accoustical influence in these songs, which later was changed in a more rock and funky style. In fact when you hear these songs on our live concerts you ´ll be aware that the style has remarkably changed.
Silvio Frajria did a great contribution to this album, and was the ear of the recordings. We began the recordings without basslines, because at that time we didn´t have a bass player nor a drummer. So we had to add this new instruments when we finished the basic tracks. Like on all recordings we left some solos and ideas off the CD, because we had to take preferences. So some sax and guitar solo didn ´t found their way on it. But I think it was better so, because we didn ´t had the time
and the money to develope new ideas and put it on the record. The final mix was held in October 96 and with all the organization issues ( label, grafic style, photos, CD
presentation ecc. ) we had to manage, there was not much time for rehearsal. We wanted to put the Cd on the market before Christmas to make a large sale on our CD, and pay our debits that we´re free of financial pressure.
All the persons involved in the CD except the band members:
Silvio and Mike Frajria, Christian Martinelli ( fotos ), Marco Scalia ( comics ), Paolo Ferigo ( grafic design ), Thomas Hölzl ( lending us his selfmade drums ) Bruno Demetz ( sax ), Mario Punzi ( drums ), Johnny Sanzio ( for screaming at the end of Natural high ), Eugen U-Gene Raffl ( 4 his financial help ), Brauerei Greiter (for supporting our live performances ), Astrid Ladurner ( for love, inspiration and tips )
and all the folks who helped us on the distribution of the CD and that support our live concerts.
Thank you very much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! KURT

lyrics
Natural high ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and vocals ) Mario ( drums ) Mike ( bass ) Stefano ( percussion )
Just the other day walking down my road I just couldn ´t believe when i spotted a tramp, it was my old friend D.V. sleeping peacfully in a cardboard box, so i woke him up and we talked a lot, he had a lot to day about the state he ´s in, to cut it short. Thats where he began
Hey, we live the way, we love i ´d say, this is my way to use my time, to feel all right, on the road i ´m fine.I ´ve seen the east, i ´ve seen the west and still i haven ´t seen enough, to see the rest, i need all the time i ´ve left.
Love, love, love, lovely love, i still can feel and that is enough, my security, when i ´m feelin love i feel like a king, love, love, love lovely love is what i feel and that is enough............NATURAL HIGH
I ´ve tried it all, had tried it bevore, buisness you know deception i mean big money games, I mean, running with the flow and trust no one, just to be somone, but it didn ´t go along, with my wishes and needs, no i didn ´t feel free, i hated the way i turned out to be, no i did not agree.I love the road ,every stone, i love to live and wouldn ´t give, into saving up for a place at the grave yard Love, love................
Better a trip than a riot ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and sequenzer ) Stefano ( percussions ) Eric ( drums ) Mike ( bass ) Bruno ( Sax )
When there is something getting on your case, and that same thing keeps walking as your pace, you get a real desire, to go and break away, to go and see the sunrise, downtown or any place..
Better a trip than a riot
Just a little secret sleeping in your dreams, it might remain speakless if you follow what you feel, thousend new ideas, breaking all your fears, take you by the hand, in to some foreign land... Better a trip than a riot
Light, satisfied like air you flow, never touch the ground Better a.........
Then when you come back to the place you´ve left, suddenly all seems much bette then before agrouation´s gone, changed your mind about it all, kick your up the arse and now your free at last...... Light satisfied...............
My Rag (words and music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ), Kurt ( guitars and vocals ) Eric (drums), Mike ( bass ), Bruno ( Sax ).
HE: I came back to my house, it was so lonely without you. Returned from a weekend, with my best friends theres nothing new. So i thought between us, it is all ready but i thought to fast, couse í found her letter that told her grief in the recent past. she wrote
SHE: Hey baby what kind of a son of a bitch are you. You go away with your friend phoned me I ´m away for a while, milk is in the freezer, please don´ t touch the video i ´ve programed, i love you byyyyyy.
But this is the last time, you left me lonely with my grief. You hurt me so many times I´m gonna leave you be shure i will....
So if you want to phone me, or find me or what ever, forgett it, i´m never your baby anymoore and i can´t stand you stupid excuses and justifies about the same fucking things you do with your friends.........
You´ve done enough Rag with me, now its my turn to do my Rag!HE: Hey babe I´m back, had a real good time i did, i´ve been with my friends to clubs and pubs and danced a lot. Well i think between us i should do this twice a week, so tell me whats the matter, you look as if you don´t agree!?
SHE: Hey baby, what kind of a stupid idea is this now? I´ve just came home and all i found is a fucking letter, and i´m left allone with a pine of milk, coudn´t even watch the video.....MIister bloody football finals!!!!!!!!!
3 th world girl ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P.)
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and sequenzer ) Stefano ( percussions ) Bruno ( sax ) Silvio ( Bass ) Eric ( drums )
She ´s been living many years in poverty, dreams - to get the hell out of here, fears - that her hopes wont be fullfilled, tears - night 4 night when she thinks of it.
Love- is not what she´s looking for. All her live she fight to survive and hopes for a change in live - fight 4 survival, impossible to describe it.
First sells her body than her soul, who are you to throw a stone, who are you to judge someone, knowing nothing at all............
First sells her body than her soul, takes every chance might be the one, humiliation has all gone, puts hr live at risk to carry on.
She walkes the street to feed her kids, daytime a mum - night time a bitch, sche´s one of hundred on the streets, never sure what the night might bring.
´Couse love is not what she´s looking for, couse love will never pay the bills at home, she sells her body then her soul, couselove has never fed someone........
Rights ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars ) Mike ( bass ) Eric ( drums ) Stefano ( percussions ) Bruno ( sax )
All my live i´ve wondered whay the human race can´t live as one. Since the start of history we are judged by the color of our skin. Prayers of love going out to the sky - night by night............
read the papers watch the news and the message is we have to choose what way to use to try to
Fight for our rights - we have learned to speak our mind, why don´t use words not arms to try to fight, tofight for our right....
M. L. King and Malcom X where just a few to fight with words, hate makes blind, deaf and dumb they were brought to silence with a gun............screams of pain and again justice failed the worst way............Blind hate and selfishness seems to be the cause for injustice, don´t let it change your mind when you..............
The tale of Pete Green ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and sequenzer ) Sivio ( bass ) Eric ( drums ) Stefano (percussions)
A long time ago in a far away place there was known a paradise bird, junior Pete Green was the only one to have ot seen. Walked for days to find its hiding place, to take it home become a rich man. But things don´t only come the way you think they would and Pete was cought in some kind of trance while the bird danced.
Well have you ever seen a place like this bevore, i thought paradise is in heaven but heaven is on earth i think it´s wonderful.........Colors so bright an amazing graze, moves so smooth, joiful sight, incredible reflections of the spirit of life, we got to keep this nature and wildlive save....
Now there was Pete Green with hes dream like a seed growing inside his head, he was gonna tell the world that no creature shoule be killed or be put inside a cage. Colors so...........
Well there is Pete Green still been seen sowing this feed into peoples dreams, couse that spirit did survive his strength never died kept that image of that dancing bird deep inside................
Expensive things and me ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and sequenzer ) Stefano ( percussions )
Expensive things keep on looking, down on me, out of golden window seals.
I get a feeling of loosing control, rob a bank out and let my self go............
Tell me what ould you be doing with a bag full fo dosh, no more waiting for the sales no more
leaving empty hands, would you gamble at the race or hide it underneath your bed, would you feel like a king would you be happier you think, would it change your live or only change your clotes, would you be satisfied would you want more and more............
Expensive things and me do not agree i say, expensive thingts you see will never come my way, expensive things just seems to be to far away, expensive things are slowly driving me insane
Expensive things and me....................Do not agree they only fool me stupid invention for high society, just like a cherry tree you see without a ladder you want reach the top, and a ladder i haven´t got.
Expensive things keep on smiling and calling me, everywhere I look they´re there........I get a feeling...............................Tell me what would you be doing with a bag full of dosh, not more thinking about costs or fof what you can afford, would you be in a state of shock or would you spend it all at once, would you tell all the world, would you get totallyrunk, would it change your life or only change your car, would you be satisfied, would you want more and more........
All about songs ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars ) Mario ( drums ) Mike ( bass ) Bruno ( sax ) Stefano ( percussions )
To hear the sound of some melodies, certain songs parts of guitar.
Lying on my bed I close my eyes my fantasy goes wild. Got to listen to everybeat, makes me feel so well inside, i would advise to try this sometimes, if you still have not ever tried.
Every note, every single tone goes deep inside my soul, makes my body move dance to the groove, till the morning comes. Every single note, every single tone goes deep inside my heart and keeps me going on.
Heavens sent these tender notes, really do help me sometimes. when I ´ve got a troubled day i choose a song to change my mind. Need to sing and got to write to liberate my soul, I need to gear some music everywhere hear it replay in my mind.
Every note, every single tone ...........................................
Sailor paul ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars ) Eric ( drums ) Charlie ( bass ) Bruno ( sax ) Stefano ( percussions )
Sailor Paul was best pals wuth Long John, on the stormy seas, john kept him company, lets say destiny took him to pretty Jean, she made him choose between herself and his lovely whisky.
Would this be a time for celebration, would this be a time for joy, is this now a time for celebration, not without John..........
Sailor Paul seddlted down to build a home, peace did not last long, Paul went back to John.
Would this be..............
Several times he tried to change live style, and he wonders why he can ´t make it, he still follows..
Wonderful to be back just with John, on a boat somewherer the bottle in his hand, so wonderful to sail the seven seas, and lonelyness he ´d never had to face.
Would this be..............
I can ´t get enough ( words by Gabi F. music by Kurt P. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars ) Stefano ( percussions ) Silvio ( bass )
When i need you babe, I want you to be there, fullfill all my desires to have breakfast in bed, talk or just make love, need to feel you near me feel real close. Oh .........can ´t get enough
The times I get to see you, are running far to fast, a thousand things are going in and out my head, i can ´t stop loose controll, every single thought is slowly leaving my mind and I have wonderful time
Until this day, never felt this way, got to feel this precious warmth, deep inside, hidden and save.
I come running when I hear you call, I will fight just anyone who tries to do you harm, every thought you thin I know, special magic feeling, everybody knows. Oh ......I can ´t.........
I said: tears and fears, all gone, I feel good, I feel strong, you seem to me like a good luck charm, I surely love you the way you are. Oh I can ´t ............
Until this day......................
What a shame ( words and music by Gabi F. )
Gabi ( vocals ) Kurt ( guitars and sequenzer ) Stefano ( percussions ) Mario ( drums )
Shé ´ll be fine they say, just sitting on a hot chair, while she keeps walking by herself loudly swearing.....................Oh well, she walks the streets day and night talding to herself, moving up and down the different streets of her own world.
What a shame, they would say, what a shame, it might just go away. And they still say she ´ll be all right.
While she walks the streets with a plastic bag, wrapped around her head, sleeps rouhg at night, like a dog outside, their own front door...............
What a shame........................

The times I get to see you, are running far to fast, a thousand things are going in and out my head, i can ´t stop loose controll, every single thought is slowly leaving my mind and I have wonderful time
Until this day, never felt this way, got to feel this precious warmth, deep inside, hidden and save.
I come running when I hear you call, I will fight just anyone who tries to do you harm, every thought you thin I know, special magic feeling, everybody knows. Oh ......I can ´t.........
I said: tears and fears, all gone, I feel good, I feel strong, you seem to me like a good luck charm, I surely love you the way you are. Oh I can ´t ............
Until this day......................
What a shame ( words and music by Gabi F. )

Shé ´ll be fine they say, just sitting on a hot chair, while she keeps walking by herself loudly swearing.....................Oh well, she walks the streets day and night talding to herself, moving up and down the different streets of her own world.
What a shame, they would say, what a shame, it might just go away. And they still say she ´ll be all right.
While she walks the streets with a plastic bag, wrapped around her head, sleeps rouhg at night, like a dog outside, their own front door...............
What a shame........................
