Marlene Dietrich discography

Hermine: Udo Lindenberg singt Lieder von 1929 bis 1988 (* Spoken verse introduction to Illusions and Wenn ich mir was wünschen dürfte[33])

Many of Dietrich's numerous radio performances have been included on compilations of her music.[33]

The Polish label Wifon issued a cassette tape of a Dietrich concert, recorded in Warsaw in 1966, in 1992 (catalogue number MC283).[34][35] The release contained the following tracks: "I Can't Give You Anything But Love, Baby", "You're the Cream in my Coffee", "My Blue Heaven", "See What the Boys in the Backroom Will Have", "The Laziest Gal in Town", "Shir Hatan", "La Vie en Rose", "Jonny", "Go 'Way From My Window", "Don't Smoke in Bed", "Lola", "Marie-Marie" and "Frag nicht warum ich gehe".

A limited special edition of the book Photographs and Memories (published in 2001 by Nicolai, Berlin) included a recording of the soundtrack of Dietrich's 1963 filmed concert at Berns Salonger as an audio CD bonus.[36]

The Marlene Dietrich Collection Berlin's archival holdings include soundtrack prerecording discs and unissued radio and concert recordings.[37]

The following of Dietrich's studio recordings remain unreleased: "Du, du liegst mir im Herzen", "Aus der Jugendzeit", "Das zerbrochene Ringlein", "Treue Liebe" (all recorded July 1954 with Jimmy Carroll and orchestra)[38] and "Wot cher! [Knocked 'Em In the Old Kent Road]" (recorded in 1955 with Wally Stott and orchestra).[39]

Recordings first issued on 78 rpm records:[40][41][42][43]

Recordings first issued as 7" (45 rpm, except where noted otherwise) singles:[40][41][44]

Dietrich recorded the following tracks in Washington in 1944 - 1945 for OSS use:[42]

• "Mein Mann ist verhindert"
• "Sag mir Adieu"
• "Ich hab' die ganze Nacht geweint"
• "Gib doch den Männern am Stammtisch ihr Gift"
• "Wo die Wiesen sind"
• "Fräulein Annie wohnt schon lang nicht hier"
• "Schlittenfahrt"
• "Nun kam die Erntezeit"
• "Du hast 'nen Blick"
• "Ich Heirate Nie"
• "Lili Marleen"[48]

These recordings were not meant for commercial issue. "Gib doch den Männern am Stammtisch ihr Gift", "Ich Heirate Nie" and "Du hast 'nen Blick" were issued for the first time in 2001 on Der Blonde Engel (EMI 7242 5 27567 2 7). All the other tracks remain unissued, with the partial exception of "Lili Marleen". With its massive success on the war front, specifically on the German language OSS MO radio station "Soldatensender", where it became the station's theme song,[48] the song was re-recorded in English and released, with the spelling "Lili Marlene", as a 10" single by Decca in 1945. Though other recordings of the song in German were performed by Dietrich, the original OSS recording of the track is presumed unissued.
