Album Description
Available in:
Live in the City of Light is a (double LP / CD) live album by Simple Minds. It was released in May 1987 to document their successful worldwide Once Upon a Time tour, and charted at #1 in the UK. The album spawned one chart single release, a live version of 'Promised You A Miracle'.
The album was recorded mostly at Le Zénith, Paris in August 1986, with one track recorded in October 1986 in Sydney, Australia. (Although the album wasn't recorded there, the inside of the gatefold sleeve features a photograph of a concert from the 1986 tour which took place in a square in Locarno, Switzerland). It features the band's 1986 touring lineup, which included second vocalist Robin Clark and percussionist Sue Hadjopoulos. On the recording of "Someone Somewhere in Summertime", Lisa Germano (at the time, a John Mellencamp band member) contributed studio-overdubbed violin on "Someone Somewhere in Summertime" and former Simple Minds member Derek Forbes contributed (uncredited) bass guitar overdubs.
