Artistic Director of St Ann's Susan Feldman said:
"I have been wanting to produce 'Berlin' ever since a cousin of mine first handed it to me on a cassette about ten years ago.
"It's been gratifying to engage Lou and some of his closest collaborators - Bob Ezrin, Julian Schnabel, Hal Willner - in what's sure to be a labor of love and an important part of rock history. 'Berlin' is a sad song about people on the edge, that, at its highest moments, achieves a shimmering elegance."
