Review by Kelly

Kurt Stephan's album Central Pacific Railroad Ein Dampfroß Erobert Amerika is a captivating musical journey through the history of the Central Pacific Railroad. The album tells the story of the railroad's construction, from the workers' struggles to the triumphs of the engineers.

The music is a fusion of traditional American folk and Germanic influences, creating a unique sound that is both nostalgic and inspiring. The use of authentic instruments, such as the banjo and accordion, adds a layer of authenticity to the album.

Stephan's attention to detail is evident throughout the album, with each track telling a different story and evoking a different emotion. From the somber "The Workers' Lament" to the triumphant "The Golden Spike," the album takes the listener on a journey through the highs and lows of the railroad's construction.
