Berlin was formed in 1979, when lead singer Terri Nunn joined an existing band. Nunn's voice and looks were a big part of the band's appeal, but she also was working as an actress in Hollywood at the time, and missed taking part in recording the band's first album, released in 1980. But she returned for the band's 1982 album "Pleasure Victim." It didn't have any Top Forty hits, but several songs got played on new wave radio stations, and it eventually sold over a million copies. The band was still promoting that album at the time of this concert, so most of the songs performed were from it.In 1984, Berlin would have their first hit with "No More Words." But then they really hit it big in 1986 with the song "Take My Breath Away," which would reach Number One on the U.S. singles charts. However, the band broke up after that. The band reformed about ten years later, as is still going as I write this in 2024.
Here's the Wikipedia entry if you want to know more:
I was able to find a soundboard quality bootleg of the music here. Unfortunately, while it contains most of the band's set, it's not complete. Two more songs were played: "World of Smiles" and "Touch." All of the set remains unreleased.
This album is 33 minutes long.
