Customer Reviews

There is life after Big In Japan...5
Alphaville are one of those bands who are bracketed in the "one hit wonder" category. True, they only had one hit in the UK, but they have sustained a recording career for over sixteen years from BIJ all the way through to their latest recording, the live album Stark Naked And Absolutely Live.

This album was their second and in someways is more perfect than the first. Frank Mertens had now left the band and Ricky Echolette picked up his keyboard. The melodies are more laid-back and lush than their debut, which was pretty good too by the way, but there is a nice balance of uptempo synth-pop songs and slower material.

Best songs on this album for me are Red Rose, Universal Daddy and the remarkably beautiful Lassie Come Home.
