Berlin is essential to the new wave and electronic music explosion of the early '80s. For nearly 10 years, the band challenged not only mainstream ideas of music and femininity, but also They rocked radio and sales charts with their brand of American electro-pop. Both Terri Nunn's provocative image and her vocal style - seeped in anger, tenderness, sophistication and sensuality - continue to be a lasting influence among countless female singers. From Sex (I'm A) to Metro, Berlin consistently wrote bold and unique pop songs. Berlin Live: Sacred and Profane captures the passion and ingenuity that has marked the band throughout their career.

The highly anticipated Berlin Live: Sacred and Profane is the band's first-ever live release in the USA. Recorded at a single performance on December 4, 1999, the album features Berlin's current lineup - Terri Nunn/vocals, Scott Warren/keyboards, Rodger Carter/drums, Dallan Baumgarten/guitar, and Sharlotte Gibson/backing vocals. Produced by Terri Nunn and mixed at NRG studios in Los Angeles by Jay Baumgardner , Sacred and Profane also includes three new studio tracks.
