Berlin 61 / 89 / Wall Of Sound is not an ordinary compilation. It is closer to a concept album, referring both to a chapterin history and a musical assemblage which resounds like a continental echo to Phil Spector? s Wall of Sound.
Dangerous, sublime, incandescent, fuelled by a vivid mythology in which Nick Cave, David Bowie, Lou Reed, and Brian Eno meet, Berlin is an artistic city par excellence, a place of all extremes. During those three decades marked by the Wall, in which she was a world metropolis because American and French as much as German, Russian and English, Berlin established herself as the capital of an « other rock », as important and everlasting as the one which was born in the middle of the previous century, somewhere in the south of the U.S.A.
