Gabriel became famous in Germany as singer of Schlager songs.[1] Gabriel lived in Harburg, Hamburg.[2] He was a friend of Johnny Cash and introduced American Country music to German audiences, even covering some of Cash's songs in German.[3]

Gabriel was married four times and had four children. He fell down a flight of stairs a couple of days before his death and died of complications that occurred after multiple surgeries to fix his broken neck.[4]
