(The Serious Moonlight Tour was a worldwide concert tour by the English musician David Bowie, launched in May 1983 in support of his album Let's Dance (1983). The tour opened at the Vorst Forest Nationaal, Brussels, on 16 May 1983 and ended in the Hong Kong Coliseum on 8 December 1983. It was, at the time, his longest, largest and most successful concert tour to date, although it has since been surpassed in length, attendance and gross revenue by subsequent Bowie tours.) 

Let's Dance is the fifteenth studio album by English singer David Bowie, released in April 14, 1983, with co-production by Chic's Nile Rodgers. The title track of the album became one of Bowie's biggest hit singles, reaching No. 1 in the UK, US and various other countries.

 

Primitive Man is the second studio album by Australian (from Sydney) rock new wave synthpop band Icehouse. It was released on September 20, 1982. Producer: Iva Davies - John Brand. It peaked at #3 on the National albums chart.
