Harald Walter Bernhard Schubring (better known as Ted Herold) was a popular German schlagersanger best known for his German-language covers of the songs of <a href="spotify:artist:43ZHCT0cAZBISjO8DG9PnE">Elvis Presley</a>. He made his first recording when he was only 16, having made contact with the folks at <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Polydor%22">Polydor</a> through a school chum. A full-length album's worth of <a href="spotify:artist:43ZHCT0cAZBISjO8DG9PnE">Elvis</a> covers followed soon after, at which point he adopted the stage name Ted Herold. A full-blown contract with Polydor-Vienna followed, and Herold released numerous albums and singles throughout the late '50s and early '60s. Herold was drafted into the army in 1963; his military career, combined with the German public's waning interest in rockabilly, signaled the end of his career at the top of the pops. His last single on <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Polydor%22">Polydor</a> hit stores in 1966, and Herold's next record deal didn't roll around until he obtained a contract with Teledec in the '70s. He released numerous albums on that label throughout the '80s. There was a resurgence of interest in Herold in the '90s, culminating in the release of several new albums in the early 2000s. Ted Herold died on November 20, 2021 in a house fire; he was 79 years old. ~ TiVo Staff, Rovi
