Product Description
Description
Erasure's second album, 1987's THE CIRCUS, is one of their most uncompromising in several ways. The duo's most unfailingly dancefloor-oriented release, much of THE CIRCUS consistsof in-your-face Hi-NRG disco beats largely unvarnished by the pop savvy of later singles like "Stop!" or "Chains of Love". Similarly, THE CIRCUS finds singer Andy Bell in completecontrol of Erasure's lyrics--much of 1986's WONDERLAND had been written solely by partner Vince Clarke--and the emphatically gay singer bluntly tackles major themes on songs like "It Doesn't Have To Be" and "Hideaway". A powerful, sometimes unsettling album.
An important note: Later in 1987, THECIRCUS was radically reworked into the remixed/re-recorded THE TWO RING CIRCUS. The two albums fundamentally differ enough that Erasure fans will want both. THE CIRCUS's bitterly sarcastic "Sexuality" and a reworking of "In the Hall of theMountain King" from Edvard Grieg's PEER GYNT are not included on THE TWO RING CIRCUS.
