Green, the band's sixth full-length album and their first major label release, was released on Nov 8, 1988 (also US Election Day).

Here's the infamous satellite broadcast presentation for Warners employees, from October 13 the same year:





And an interview from the same year, also filmed in Athens:

No tickling the lead singer when he is reaching for a note that he can no longer hit, OK?" JMS, post-audience visit during The One I Love in Bergen, 2008

I love that warners broadcast. I worked for a while in an office next to Lenny Waronker and he was mortified that this was online. So many great people and so much soul in that video.
