The Chameleons were one of the most distinctive voices to emerge from the post-punk Manchester scene, blending atmospheric guitars with a raw, urgent energy that set them apart from their contemporaries. Dali's Picture / Aufführung In Berlin, released by Blue Apple Music in 2022, brings together two landmark recordings: early studio sessions captured at Cargo Studios in Rochdale between 1981 and 1982, and a live performance recorded at the Loft in Berlin, Germany on December 18th, 1983.
This release offers fans both a rare glimpse into the band's formative years and the electric energy of their live performance in Berlin, making it a compelling document of The Chameleons at two distinct and important moments in their career. Described as "fascinating, revelatory, and frequently thrilling," this remastered collection from Blue Apple Music — the label founded by The Chameleons' own Mark Burgess — presents these recordings with fresh clarity for both longtime devotees and newcomers to the band's catalog.
