Alphaville – Big in Japan

En 1982, el cantante Marian Gold y el tecladista Bernhard Lloyd formaban parte de un proyecto musical llamado Nelson Community, allí formaron una banda llamada Chinchilla Green que no prosperó. Ese mismo año, Lloyd formó una banda con Frank Mertens, otro tecladista, entonces ellos llamaron a Gold para que sea el cantante, de esta manera nació la banda Forever Young, más tarde sería rebautizada como Alphaville.
En 1983, Alphaville edita su primer sencillo “Big in Japan”, que pronto se convertiría en un éxito mundial y que junto con “Sounds Like A Melody” serían un anticipo de su álbum Forever Young que incluía también el éxito del mismo nombre. Pese al éxito obtenido, Frank Mertens deja la banda y es reemplazado por Ricky Echolette en teclados y guitarra, quien fuera compañero de ellos en Chinchilla Green.
En 1986, editan otro sencillo “Dance with Me” que tendría gran éxito, como anticipo de su segundo álbum Afternoons in Utopia.
En 1988, editan un compilado conteniendo todos los sencillos de la banda hasta ese momento y al año siguiente, lanzan The Breathtaking Blue, que incluía el tema “Romeos”.
Alphaville tardó varios años en editar su siguiente álbum, mientras tanto, Marian Gold realizó un disco solista en 1992. Entonces, es en 1994, cuando Alphaville realiza su cuarto álbum de estudio: Prostitute.
En 1996, Ricky Echolette dejó la banda pero dejaría algunas contribuciones para el álbum Salvation que se editaría al año siguiente.
Entre 1997 y 2010, Alphaville solo edita álbumes recopilatorios y de rarezas. Pero ya para 2003, la banda había vuelto a mutar con la partida de Bernhard Lloyd. La formación quedó entonces con Gold como cantante, Martin Lister en teclados, Dave Goodes en guitarra, y Jakob Kiersch en batería.

Alphaville’s ‘Little America’ DVD reformatted to HD, wide screen. Best watched in 720p. An audio version of this is still available worldwide under the name ‘Stark Naked and Absolutely Live’. The DVD was recorded in July of 1999 and released in 2,000. It contains live performances of everything – from their big hits to fan favorites.
Alphaville kept playing until the folks running the venue told Alphaville they had to shut it down. Unfortunately, no video can do a live concert justice — certainly not this one. But enjoy the best you can! Unfortunately, the ‘Little America’ DVD is not in print at this time. It was a very limited offer, but you can still get the magnificent audio version! Get Alphaville ‘Stark Naked and Absolutely Live’ while you still can.
