Mr. Clean has been played on NTS shows including Diddy Wah, with Mr. Clean first played on 29 October 2018.

1) German melodic rock band. The beginning of German band Mr. CLEAN goes back to the year 1994, when guitarist Thomas Kupke teamed up some session musicians to build a new rock project. The group started to write their own material, while played in small venues a mixed set of original compositions with cover songs.

By 1995, Mr. CLEAN managed to record themselves nine pieces from their own, and published the CD “Wash & Go” through the unknown small indie label Baze Records. The band’s style could be best described as melodic hard rock with a slightly progressive influences, and some AOR/rock thrown into the mix. In example, “Way Of Love” has a strong driven guitar riff and a keyboard atmosphere similar to early nineties SAGA. “Intoxication” is a midtempo rocker with clean guitars and a cool refrain, influenced by the Canadian sound.

“Not Now!” is an uptempo synth driven melodic rocker with hints of Scandi – AOR ala RETURN or SKAGARAK, surely one of the best tracks here. “Blue Dreams” returns to the proggy territory, “King For A Day” is a catchy typically German MR/AOR tune, and “Twisted” has an hard rock Americanized style. The synth / piano only ballad “Only Some Words” is truly good, in fact, the best track of the entire record.

“Wash & Go” is an unknown CD, rare as an ice cube in the Sahara. Includes good songs and melodies that would needed a little extra work, but this is compensated by the freshness of the band. The production is as good as it gets for an indie release. A nice collectible.

2) French deep house artist, associated with La Plage Records.

3) A short-lived collaboration between Frank Zappa, Paul Buff, and an anonymous singer. They released just one single, "Mr. Clean/Jessie Lee" in 1964.
