Review

Alternative Press (12/99, p.107) - "...catchy-as-herpes synth pop with soul-diva vocals. Alison Moyet's gritty, white0chick-sounds-like-black-man voice contrasted wonderfully with [Vince] Clarke's post-Depeche Mode toytown melodies..."

Title Note

Recording information: Blackwing Studios.

Editor: Matthias Heilbronn.

Photographer: Annabel Elston.

After writing most of Depeche Mode's debut album, SPEAK AND SPELL, Vince Clarke left that band and hooked up with singer/pianist Alison Moyet, whose booming, soulful, R&B-inflected voice could not have been more different from that of Depeche Mode's Dave Gahan. The combination of Moyet's incredible voice and Clarke's electronic pop songs gave Yaz (known as Yazoo outside the US) a unique sound that lasted far beyond its brief lifespan. In fact, this 1999 compilation was actually spurred by the success of a popular television commercial featuring its lovely ballad "Only You."

Combining the best parts of the duo's two albums, 1982's UPSTAIRS AT ERIC'S and 1983's YOU AND ME BOTH, with a couple of new remixes, this collection is most notable for including the superior single mix of the dance club classic "Situation." A fine introduction to an influential act.
