Episode image for Heaven 17 Live in Concert

Duration: 1 hour

Heaven 17's first album Penthouse and Pavement released in 1980 was a landmark in UK pop history combining electronica with pop hooks. Due to technological constraints the band were unable to perform the album live at the time of its release. However, to celebrate its 30th anniversary and with the advances in technology, the album was performed for the first time to a sell-out gig of over 2000 people at the Sheffield Magna Arena on 6 March 2010. Along with their hits Temptation, Let Me Go and Come Live With Me they perform Penthouse and Pavement in its entirety.
