Biography

Following the disbandment of the short-lived synth pop group Yazoo, former Depeche Mode member Vince Clarke formed Erasure in 1985 with singer Andy Bell. Like Yaz and Depeche Mode, Erasure were a synth-based group, but they had stronger dance inclinations, as well as a sharper, more accessible sense of pop songcraft, than either of Clarke's previous bands.

Format:Audio CD
I just loved this CD it bought back many happy memories and had me singing and dancing. It is a must have to add to the collection of 'blast from the past' music.

By A Customer
Format:Audio CD
This is one of the first albums I bought when it first came out, and it still stands up today as a great album. Production wise it's still the best sounding erasure album to date as a few albums later they seemed to go all 'plinky plonky'. Song wise it is more consistent than "The Innocents", a whole load better than "Wild!", and is probably their 3rd best album after "Chorus" and "I Say, I Say, I Say" in my opinion.

True Erasure Sound
By far this is the true Erasure sound. Contains the true Erasure classics and the hits that started them out on the road to success.
