	Spandau - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		The history of Spandau begins in the 7th or 8th century, when the Slav Heveller first settled in the area and later built a fortress there.
		During the Ascanian Rule the construction of the Spandau Citadel began, which was completed between 1559 and 1594 by Joachim II of Brandenburg.

	Spandau Ballet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Spandau Ballet was a popular British band in the 1980s.
		With newfound confidence and a cleaner, radio-friendly sound, Spandau Ballet finally broke into the mainstream with True (1983), an album whose title cut was a six-minute opus paying tribute to the Motown sound (and in some respects, Marvin Gaye).
		In 1986 Spandau Ballet signed to CBS Records and released Through the Barricades, which saw the band trying to move away from the pop/soul influences of True and Parade and more towards rock.

	TrouserPress.com :: Spandau Ballet
		Viewed at the start by some as adventurous and trendsetting, the ludicrous garb and chic disco of London's Spandau Ballet were both dubious new wave developments, but spawned much replication.
		Spandau then abandoned synthesizers and high-tension funk for schmaltzy pop with soul pretensions.
		During legal tumult between Spandau and Chrysalis, the label issued a collection of the band's singles, followed by a UK-only compilation of extended remixes.

	Spandau Ballet - Lyrics
		Spandau Ballet went through a few looks, including putting kilts on everyone, before they nailed it.
		With the rise of Spandau Ballet the music press had to come up with a new category, so the new romantic phrase was coined.
		Best known in the US for their 1983 hit "True," Spandau Ballet had a run of hits at home in the UK, including "Gold" and "Only When You Leave."

		Spandau Ballet had a respectable string of hits in their native Britain, but they were a one-and-a-half hit wonder in the U.S., where they scored the Top 10 smash "True" and the Top 30 hit "Gold." But if this 1983 album is anything to go by, the band deserved far greater success on these shores.
		Spandau's career went south shortly after this early peak as they sought to commit to record the more vibrant energy of their live shows.
		Spandau Ballet was one of the most successful New Romantic bands of the 1980s in large part because of this 1983 masterpiece, which includes their US and UK smash hit "True" as well as the popular "Gold." Also includes the third single, "Communication," which unfortunately failed to chart here in the States.

		For the fresh-faced few who can't remember those ankle-booted, floppy-panted, heavy eye-linered days, Spandau Ballet and their rivals Duran Duran spent the early Eighties locked in a rivalry which led to the break-up of lifelong friendships, the formation of opposing gangs and the ripping out of lots of hair!
		As one of the leading New Romantic bands, Spandau Ballet racked up a number of British hits - as well as one Top Ten American hit, ’True’ - during the early Eighties and soon became one of the most successful groups to emerge during the New Wave era.
		Spandau Ballet managed to hit the Top Ten once more in the UK with ’Gold,’ which peaked at #2; in the US, it reached #29.

	Spandau Ballet : Through the Barricades - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		By the time Spandau Ballet's fifth album appeared in 1986, the sun had set on the synth poppers of the second British Invasion and guitars were all the rage once again.
		Never ones to miss a trend, the former new romantics -- who'd signed with a new label, Epic, and were determined to make a big splash stateside -- declared their admiration for bands like Bon Jovi and made an album that likely surprised their diminishing fan base with its AOR aspirations.
		Rocking up Spandau Ballet's smooth white-boy soul, Through the Barricades manages to avoid utter disaster via the tuneful creations of songwriter/guitarist Gary Kemp.

		As part of Britain's short-lived New Romantic movement of the early '80s, Spandau Ballet initially combined futurist electro-pop with disco and post-punk influences.

		That small coterie of early-'80s Britpop bands who were part of the New Romantic movement--a dressed-up and dance-oriented response to punk rock--have largely been dismissed as pretty boys whose affinity for hairspray and trend mongering outweighs their talent.
		In the unlikely event that pop revisionists ever give the New Romantics their due, Spandau Ballet will be at the head of the queue.

		While Spandau Ballet's first two albums earned them European popularity, their third, TRUE, made them worldwide stars.
		One couldn't really accuse the band of selling out, though, as the elegantly soulful ballad sound at the heart of TRUE played a role in their musical inspiration from the beginning (remember, the New Romantics were essentially soul boys, not rockers).
		The title track, a glistening slow-dance classic, both literally and musically evocative of Marvin Gaye, was an international smash, and made Spandau Ballet a household name.
