James Last (born Hans Last on April 17, 1929 in Bremen) is a German composer and big band leader with a large fan base in Europe and world-wide. Lasts trademark is arranging pop hits in a big-band style; his series of party albums is equally well-known. Over the course of his career, he has sold well over 100 million albums.
This site is dedicated to James "Hansi" Last, and also with a big thanks to all my friends and fans from all over the world for watching videos of the world's most successful bandleader - James Last. Unfortunately, Youtube and TimeWarner Group don't agree with us and some of the videos that I have uploaded of James Last (and his Orchestra) have been blocked. I hope that this site does not get removed as it gets thousands and thousands of "hits" from all over the world and I have received hundreds of emails and video comments of support. Thanks for dropping by - let's hope we can continue to meet here to enjoy the music of Hansi!
