Roxette was a Swedish pop rock duo, consisting of Marie Fredriksson (vocals) and Per Gessle (vocals and guitar).
Formed in 1986, the duo became an international act in the late 1980s, when they released their breakthrough second album "Look Sharp!".
Roxette achieved nineteen UK Top 40 hits and several US Hot 100 hits, including four US number-ones with "The Look", "Listen to Your Heart", "It Must Have Been Love" and "Joyride". Their other hits include "Dressed for Success", "Dangerous", and "Fading Like a Flower".
In 2002, the duo took a break from recording and touring when Fredriksson was diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Roxette took to the stage together again in 2009. Their final studio album, "Good Karma", was released in 2016.
Marie Fredriksson died on 9 December 2019, at the age of 61, following a long battle with her brain tumour.
"Crash! Boom! Live!" is the fourth concert film by Roxette, released on 19 September 1996 on VHS and LaserDisc.
It contains the duo's 14 January 1995 concert in the Ellis Park Stadium in Johannesburg, South Africa for the "Crash! Boom! Bang! Tour".
