After the enormous global success of their debut album FOREVER YOUNG (1984), German trio ALPHAVILLE set off to write another successful chapter in their career with the release of their second studio album AFTERNOONS IN UTOPIA (1986). The album reached Top 20 positions in five European countries and featured the singles “Dance With Me,” “Universal Daddy,” and “Jerusalem.”

Alphaville’s third studio album “The Breathtaking Blue” (1989) introduced new musical elements and a musical concept, added electronic pioneer Klaus Schulze to the production team and embraced emerging technology (including one of the first CD-Graphic releases ever). In addition to the well-produced songs such as the single “Romeos,” the album included the visually stunning and innovative film “Songlines” where nine directors did short movies inspired by one of the album tracks. Later renamed as “Balance,” the short film for the song “Middle of the Riddle” won an Academy Award for “Best Animated Short Film” the following year.

This brand new edition featuring newly remastered audio by Billy Bush & Butch Vig. Triple CD version features original album, b-sides, demos and remixes housed in a deluxe clamshell.
