This is the first of two albums by the duo of synthesizer wizard Vince Clarke (who had left Depeche Mode after their first album) and powerhouse singer Alison Moyet. 1982's UPSTAIRS AT ERIC'S is an influential synth-pop classic which did much to establish the link between American-style R&B and European electronica, a marriage which defined much of the Top 40 throughout the '80s.

The album, named after the duo's living space in producer Eric Radcliffe's home during the recording, contains three classic singles: the bouncy "Don't Go," the dance-club staple "Situation," and the gorgeous ballad "Only You." A pair of Moyet-penned tunes, the soulful, pleading "Midnight," and the dark, foreboding "Winter Kills," are at least as strong as the hits. This is one of the all-time classics of British synth-pop.

Yaz is known as Yazoo in the UK.

It was a must have back in the 80's and is still a must have in 2009! Can't stop playing it.

I had this album on cassette for the longest time and I just bought the CD. A year had passed since the last time I heard the album and as I put the disc in and the first song came on... it was as if I had found an old friend.

Autoliner Be CD  (2001)

Upstairs At Eric's music CDs
CD $13.85  
Autoliner's second album (their first was originally released under the band name Life on Mars, but another band with that name complained, so it was reissued as the album Life on Mars by the band Autoliner) is a huge leap beyond their good but at times rather generic debut. There's a newfound psychedelic feel to the trio's songs, and a bigger emphasis on the soaring three-part harmonies that are the cornerstone of their sound. Having three ...

Melissa O'Neil CD  (2005) (Import) Canada

Upstairs At Eric's songs
CD $33.59  5 stars
When Canadian teen sensation Melissa O'Neil earned the title of Canadian Idol in 2005, much speculation arose about the pop protégée's bright young career. O'Neil, a Western Canadian singer whose masterful voice carried her through the competition, knocked out her competitors week after week by varying her song choice and using impeccable vocals to translate her from casual pop princess to glamorous young diva. Ultimately, this presented a dilemma in O'Neil's marketing department, now responsible for representing an artist stuck between two realms where her chances of success were probably about equally divided; O'Neil's personality and charm could easily impress older audiences through more adult contemporary tracks, while she could also seamlessly translate onto bubblegum radio with translucent tunes and infectious dance hooks. This dilemma was not assuaged in any way by the launch of her first multi-platinum single, "Alive," which toed the line between effervescent teenage hopes and polished maturity in a flighty manner. In the end, the launch of Melissa O'Neil's eponymous debut is quite frankly a refusal to compromise in either direction. This debut release is obviously rooted in many casual common teenage hooks (specifically on numbers like "Just Like January" and the album's light first single, "Let It Go"), and O'Neil certainly dips into cheeky pop on the album's more breezy numbers. Yet at the same time, O'Neil easily jumps into more dramatic swooping ballads, using heavy drums to perfect a darker sound to balance out the airy singles that support the album. The album shows O'Neil in an excellent light, allowing her to appeal to both younger and older audiences by presenting a pack of tunes that would support neither audience in the album's entirety, yet pleases both ...
