MaMas Barn live at Elektriska Trädgården, 1983

Marie and her boyfriend then Martin Sternhufvud created a group called MaMas Barn in the beginning of 80-ies. The summer of 1982 saw the release of the single “Mammas barn” and in November the album was released. It still received good reviews, having only sold 1,000 copies.

Here are some rare live recording from 1983:

MaMas Barn – Allting Flyter
MaMas Barn – Hunger och Tro

What do we expect after all?

So, it’s only 18 days to go until they’re back on stage. Seven years,  a cruel illness and several solo albums later Roxette will be live on stage again.
When I listened to the remastered version of  “Listen to your heart” I suddenly felt what the Night of the Proms could become for all of us. To hear these songs with a big orchestra will be an extraordinary, breathtaking and brandnew feeling for all of us.

And of course, it’s a big chance to see Per and Marie live again. And it’s most probably the biggest tour they will and certainly also CAN do. So, what are your expectations? Do you join the tour at all? Which shows will you attend and can you live with the fact they’re doing five songs only? Are you anxious? Since I am a big Marie fan I can tell that I still hope she really CAN do this tour, handle the stress and the fans and simply enjoy every minute on stage. It’s clear that we really should enjoy every second we get!

New Roxette picture

Per and Marie met for an interview about “The Look” and sent a brand new Roxette picture with it.

“A brand new photo of Roxette at EMI Studios, Stockholm. Roxette has been interviewed by Magnus Broni who’s making a documentary about “The Look.” Magnus has been all over the US interviewing Brian Philips (former EMI boss) and Dean Cushman (former exchange student), among others.”

Update: Another new picture has been uploaded to roxette.se. Have a look at the sheet of paper. Looks like the NOTP arrangement, ain’t it?
