Phoenix J played at Cat's Art MusikCircus recently and the video is a recording of one of the songs, "Mackie Messer." This is when I learned this is the source of "Mack the Knife" and it was written in 1928. Phoenix J sings it in the original German but she's actually English. It won't matter whether you understand German as you will feel the vibe anyway.
She's a very talented lady and she plays only a guitar in this song but she can play what she likes and she adds whichever instrument best serves the song. It was very cool to hear her performing "Mackie Messer" and also to learn of the history in it.
