B-Book: Lust & Sound in West-Berlin 1979-1989

by Mark Reeder

Overview

From Punk to the Love Parade-the eighties in wild West Berlin were filled with music, art and complete chaos. B-Book documents the city's unique mixture of artists, squatters and hedonists of all types and tells a personal story of the walled-in city during its last decade deep behind the Iron Curtain. Mark Reeder moved from Manchester to Berlin in this tumultuous decade. In this book, the musician, producer, record label owner, actor and author captures a previously unseen image of the Mauerstadt and tells his story of West Berlin-from an outsider's point of view and in his own inimitably charming British way.
