Ewald Pfleger, der Mastermind der Kultband Opus erzählt über sein Leben mit einem Welthit! 'LIVE IS LIFE', 'LIFE IS LIVE' oder 'LIFE IS LIFE'? Egal wie man es schreibt, seit mehr als vierzig Jahren singen Menschen auf der ganzen Welt den Ohrwurm 'Nana Nanana ...' Der Buchtitel ist Programm. Seit vierzig Jahren ist der Ohrwurm 'Live Is Life' der Band Opus kreuz und quer über den Globus unterwegs. Der Hit bringt Menschen zum Mitsingen und sorgt für ein positives Lebensgefühl. Ewald Pfleger hat den Song geschrieben und mit der Dynamik, mit der er sich zum Gassenhauer auf nahezu allen Kontinenten entwickelt hat, war auch im Leben seines Schöpfers bald alles anders. In seinem Buch erzählt Ewald 'Sunny' Pfleger seine Geschichte . Es ist die spannende und unterhaltsame Story eines Mannes, der sich bereits als Kind in den Kopf gesetzt hatte, Rockmusiker zu werden. Dieses Ziel erreichte er gemeinsam mit seinen Bandkollegen von Opus, die auch im Buch zu Wort kommen und seine Erinnerungen ergänzen. 'Live Is Life' ist auch eine spannende Zeitreise durch die bunten 1970er Jahre, die hemmungslosen 1980er und führt bis ins Jahr 2025 zu Pflegers 70. Geburtstag. Es ist das Selbstportrait eines nimmermüden Vollblutmusikers, der ebenso begeistert über seine Musik schreibt, wie er persönliche Einblicke in sein Privatleben zulässt. In dieser mit viel Offenheit, Charme und Witz geschriebenen Musikbiografie, finden sich auch zahlreiche Fotos aus dem Privatarchiv des Musikstars . Unter anderem lesen Sie im Buch: Als der Rock'n'Roll ins Südburgenland kam Zum Musikraum umfunktionierter Hobbykeller im Kinderdorf Unbeschwerte Jugendjahre als 'Smiling' - die jüngste Band Österreichs ist sogar in der ZIB Ein begeisterter Schwarzfischer, der dafür eine Jugendstrafe erhielt 1973 'Opus Null' - Vertonung eines Erich-Kästner-Gedichtes ist die erste Komposition für Opus Die Opus-Kommune: die homöopathische Ösi-Variante einer Kommune Von Ibiza aus in die weite Welt: 'Live Is Life' Opus: eine Band als Rock-Visitenkarte Österreichs auf den großen Bühnen der Kontinente In Guatemala beinahe verhaftet, Gefahren im dubiosen Club in Moskau, Erfrierungen am Nordkap und Champagner beim monegassischen Fürsten  Ein Tanz mit Diego Maradona und ein Besuch beim Papst Opus erobert die Oper Wie ein Hit ein Leben verändern kann und bis heute fröhliche Urständ feiert Was Pflegers Opus-Kollegen zu sagen haben Vierzig Jahre österreichische Musikgeschichte samt vielen Anekdoten aus der Branche Wussten Sie? Die erste Aufnahme von 'Live Is Life': Das Lied erlebt auf einem burgenländischen Fußballplatz zuerst ein Hoppala und geht dann von dort aus rund um die Welt. Seit mehr als vierzig Jahren singen Menschen auf allen Kontinenten diesen Ohrwurm.  'Nana Nanana ...'

Chuck It Balls!! Best Loved Fetch ball by my Dog!!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Multi, Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Multi
Chuck It large Whistle balls, Absolutely love these great rubber balls, I think there is at least 20-25 balls all over my house, yard and in my boys toy box. At least one is trapped until fall on our ravine hill side, they do bounce high and off his snout for more travel time.!! (Over the fence and into ravine) I subscribe and save getting usually 1 or 2 a month, Really… makes it easy to find one, when they are everywhere!!😜 They are usually blue in color, once in awhile I get an orange one (which I prefer, easier to find in the grass/bushes) These do have a light whistle sound when throwing and my dog will change direction hearing where they are headed. These balls are very durable and last a very very long time. Actually I don’t think one has worn out.. lost yes…. Definitely get the large size, perfect for a med to large dog to play fetch forever!!

Love this ball!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Multi
My doberman and her dog friends love this large high bounce rubber fetch ball! She loves to chew it endlessly between throws and her Rottweiler buddy loves to do the same because it has a hole through it. I definitely recommend the large 3 inch ball for larger dogs.

The orange ones are perfect!
Size: Medium (Pack of 2), Color: Assorted
I wish I could give 4 1/2 stars but it isn't possible. The reason why I don't give 5 stars is because no one sells these in a 2 pack of just orange balls. I was able to find blue only but not orange only. I have a pitbull and so does my good friend. We take our dogs out all the time and they absolutely love chasing these balls.... The orange ones to be exact. They will not play with or bring the blue balls back. They are a waste. I had to buy 2 packs to keep the oranges. I'm taking the blue ones to the local dog park and just dropping them off. Now to the reason these balls deserve 5 stars: They are super easy to throw and they also make a slight whistling noise when you throw them because of the holes. They are real easy to wash due to the material. Also, they are pretty indestructible. The only reason I'm ordering more is due to them being lost. Our dogs have never torn them apart. I'm sure they could if we let them, but we use these for chase, not as chew toys. My friend also tied a rope through one of the balls to throw and retrieve with the rope. He uses this as a fun indoor toy. These do not float in water but I buy other chuckit balls for that purpose. They have the orange balls with the blue stripe which work great in pools. The balls are awesome and I keep coming back for more. Hopefully your dogs like the blue balls.

Worth the money
Size: Medium (Pack of 2), Color: Assorted
I've had several sizes of Chuck-It ball launchers for years but had resisted buying the balls to go with them because I had about 50 tennis balls already that cost only pennies apiece and these were quite a bit more expensive. But, I got tired of the dogs chewing up the tennis balls. I'd start a ball throwing session with a brand new ball and for the first few throws it would sail through the air and the dogs would have to work to retrieve it. However on the way back, their jaws would work it, chomp-chomp-chomp. And when they returned to me, they'd want to stand there and chomp some more, despite my command to "Drop it!" Within 30 minutes, the brand new ball would have a hole in it and then instead of sailing several football fields through the air, then bouncing over a couple of trees, I'd throw it and it would piddle unenthusiastically to the end of the driveway before falling to the ground with a sulky thud, not even bothering to bounce. So - I finally grew tired of going through a ball every time I play with the dogs - which is everyday - and ordered these chuck-it balls. They are the same size as a tennis ball but made of a rubber-like material (not silicone) and after several months of use, have no wear and tear on them at all. The dogs can exercise their gums on them all the way back to me - throw after throw - and the ball still flies the same distance each time, and bounces satisfyingly upon contact with the ground. The description says "colors may vary" but the first packet I ordered were blue and orange as pictured. Unfortunately my dog lost the orange one the first time we used it. She got thirsty and ran down to our pond for a drink, dropped the ball in the pond and it hasn't been seen since. It is dense enough it doesn't float as a tennis ball might, and by now is probably so covered in mud and slime that I wouldn't recognize it if I tripped over it. Lesson learned: we don't throw the ball in the pond pasture any more. After losing the orange ball, I ordered a second packet of the balls so that I would always have a spare. The second packet is also blue and orange. So while colors may vary, in my experience so far, they haven't (which doesn't matter to me or the dogs).

Super Chewer Friendly!!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Color: Multi
This ball is perfect for the super Chewer!! It is squishy and durable rubber that stands up to the aggressive chewer. It does not squeak. It has great bounce and is a great toy for fetch. Very cute to watching my pup bring the ball back for another throw. The rubber doesn't stick or have an average powering smell. It smells just like a rubber ball. It is highly functional for a great game of fetch! Highly recommend and very happy with our purchase. It is well worth the price. We will be ordering more.
