JULIO LOVETRAIN & RED ELVIS BEENDEN DEN OST-WEST KONFLIKT

In the organizer's words:

Whether East or West, these two faces were a must in any record collection at the end of the 1970s:
Julio Lovetrain - an up-and-coming pop star from Leverkusen at the time - ignited a firework of hits on West German television with "Einbahnstraße Glück", spreading wanderlust and a desire for liqueurs.
Meanwhile, Dean "Red Elvis" Reed caused a sensation as an American in the GDR: punk in the service of socialism - something that had never been seen before in the zone ("Wir hatten ja nüscht"). His casual surfer style also contributed to the mass popularization of nudist culture (sic).
Fast forward to 1989: David Hasselhoff is sent to Berlin with a lifting platform to unite East and West. The story since then: Treuhand, ABM, euro crisis, AfD.
But what if two more suitable artists had sung at the Brandenburg Gate that night instead?
