Born on January 28, 1944, in Wentorf bei Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, Reichel began his music calling in 1960, when he, as a singer/guitarist, formed the Rattles with bassist Herbert Hildebrandt in Hamburg. The dance orchestra, along with the Lords, proven one of Germany's leading beat bands of the twenty-four hours, for example touring England with the Rolling Stones in 1963 and touring Germany with the Beatles in 1966. Reichel left wing the ring in 1966 later several albums, including Pull im Star-Club Hamburg (1964), Liverpool Beat (1965), and Hurra! Die Rattles Kommen (1966), and later entered the Bundeswehr (i.e., the German armed forces).

Also during the mid to late '70s, Reichel strained as a producer, on the job with such bands as Novalis, Kiev Stingl, Neil Landon, and Emsland Hillbillies. During the early '80s, Reichel released a trio of straightforward rock'n'roll albums that were song in German and critically praised: Ungeschminkt (1980), Blues in Blond (1981), and Nachtexpress (1983). Reichel too toured for the first clip in days, mounting encouraging tours for both Blues in Blond and Nachtexpress in 1982 and 1984, respectively. In 1983, amid all of this natural process, "Der Spieler" (from Blues in Blond) became his first solo hit single, charting at number 27 and coming into court on the ZDF-Hitparade. "Packer Kutte" (from Nachtexpress) too made the ZDF-Hitparade in 1983; Reichel himself made a total of 3 personal appearances on the TV usher that twelvemonth. In 1986 he acted as a camber robber, Paul, in the celluloid Va Banque; released an album, Eine Ewigkeit Unterwegs; and appeared once again on the ZDF-Hitparade, this clip in support of his tally "Eine Ewigkeit Unterwegs." After another go, Reichel recorded a solo record album, Fledermaus (1988), and reunited with the Rattles for Hot Wheels (1988), a reunion album; some other solo album (Was Echtes) and Rattles reunion (Painted Warriors) followed in 1989 and 1990, respectively. The nineties were some other successful and productive decennium for Reichel, as he continued cathartic albums and touring, and began to chart with regularity.
