It is pretty funny how people can entirely miss a gap in a band's history. One such gap is the 3-album run of the Joe Perry Project during the early 80s when he wasn't with Aerosmith.

Alphaville is a German synthpop group which gained popularity in the 1980s. The founding members were Marian Gold (real name Hartwig Schierbaum, born May 26, 1954 in Herford), Bernhard Lloyd (real name Bernhard Gößling, born June 6, 1960 in Enger, North Rhine-Westphalia), and Frank Mertens (real name Frank Sorgatz, born October 26, 1961 in Enger, North Rhine-Westphalia). The band was at first named Forever Young before changing to Alphaville. They are best known for their two biggest hits, Big in Japan and Forever Young . Alphaville originally began as a band in early 1977. Alphaville originally went by the name of Forever Young. Marian Gold named the band after the song of the same name since it was one of the strongest songs he had composed at that point. The 1977 demo of Forever Young sounds shockingly modern and can be heard on the band's Dreamscapes rarities and demos collection. In 1984, the newly-renamed Alphaville released their debut single Big in Japan , quickly followed by the album Forever Young. Despite its success, Frank Mertens left the band that year and was replaced by Ricky Echolette (born Wolfgang Neuhaus, in Cologne, August 6, 1960) in January 1985 already credited in the Forever Young album. Marian Gold is still performing today. Big In Japan was Alphaville's biggest hit, topping the charts in Germany, Switzerland, Sweden and the U.S. Billboard Dance Chart (the group's only Top 10 on any Billboard chart), and reached the Top Five in Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Austria, Ireland and South Africa. It also became the group's only Top 20 single in the UK. The band's next two singles, Sounds Like a Melody and Forever Young , were also both European Top 10 successes, although the former track failed to make an impression on the American charts. Alphaville es un grupo de música alemán de Synth-pop que fue muy popular en los años 1980. En un principio se llamaban Forever Young pero a la hora de sacar el primer disco, decidieron llamarse Alphaville. La composición original del grupo estaba formada por los siguientes artistas: Marian Gold (seudonimo de Hartwig Schierbaum), Bernhard Lloyd y Frank Mertens. Este último, ante la presión del éxito del primer disco, no aguantó y abandonó el grupo. A partir de 1982 empezaron a publicar singles como Big in Japan y Forever Young pero no serÃa hasta 1984 y después del rotundo éxito de sus dos singles, cuando publicasen su primer álbum. La salida de Mertens en diciembre de 1984, provocó el inmediato fichaje de Ricky Echolette; el primer disco con él en el grupo y segundo de Alphaville serÃa Afternoons In Utopia en junio del 86 precedido del éxito del tema Dance With Me. En el 2002 Marian Gold actuo en el Night Of The Proms, en nombre de Alphaville, interpretando el tema Big In Japan.
