Album Notes & Community Reviews

Designed as an audio companion to a lavish, Russell Mulcahy-directed concept film, this live release capitalized on the peak of the New Romantic group's hysterical global superstardom. The arena-sized renditions of their slick, synthesizer-driven hits perfectly encapsulated the visual excess and massive commercial power of mid-eighties MTV pop.
