Yazoo, performing live 25 after Vince and Alison split up, show that their songs are as good as ever, easily dwarfing most of 80's synthpop. This cd is a good reminder of that.
However, where competing grandees like Kraftwerk have reinvented their songs over and over, Yazoo have just tried to recreate them as faithfully as possible. Only on the second cd Vince starts to vary on his melodies.
Perhaps this is inevitable for a reunion cd, but I was left with the feeling that Yazoo could have made a much better album if they had dared to be a bit more adventurous with their proven songs.
