Alphaville : Pr*stitute : CD in Mint condition

 After a worldwide success in the 1980s (Forever Young, Big In Japan, Dance With Me), many had written the German electro/synth-band Alphaville off when nothing was heard from Marian Gold, Bernhard Lloyd and Ricky Echolette for five years. However, in 1994 they came back with what several musicians and critics believe to be their best album - and one of the best of the 1990s. While it did not do well mainstream, it became a fan-favorite despite having any notable song. Pr*stitute is a 16-track surprise fusing electronic jazz, new wave music, synthpop, swing music, hip hop, classical ballads and Pink Floyd-like epic electronic music. The ambitious project works, and apart from very few commercial (e.g. the second single "Impossible Dream") or mismatched (e.g. the "Some People") exceptions, every track on the album stands out with a unique style, sophisticated composition, clever lyrics and Gold's exceptional voice. However, the album's experimental nature made it a bit hard to access which prevented it from being a commercial success - and led the band to going back to its synth/dance roots with the following album, Salvation.
