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.

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..."

| | Old Man Luedecke Proof Of Love CD (2008)
Best Of Yaz album
$13.39
'Proof of Love' is the follow up to Old Man Luedecke's widely acclaimed second album Hinterland. Produced by multi Juno Award winner Steve Dawson, this recording finds the pride of Chester, Nova Scotia, well loved for the stark joyous simplicity of his powerful banjo driven solo shows, working with a full band for the first time.Recorded live off the floor in just a couple of days at the Factory Studio in Vancouver, 'Proof of Love' captures the thrill of hearing music made in the moment. The band includes John Raham (The Be Good Tanyas, Kinnie Starr) on drums, Mark Beaty (The Be Good Tanyas) on bass, Adrian Dolan (The Bills) on fiddle, Steve Dawson on guitars and Alice Dawson, Rose Cousins, and the Sojourners on back-up vocals. The result is a hooky unique take on folk music that swaggers with a breezy depth reminiscent of John Prine or a more lyrical John Hartford. The songs remain, as always, powerful early folk-inspired offerings that continue to marry the warmth and complexity of Old Man Luedecke's banjo interplay with the emotional lyricism that has won him a devoted following. 'Proof of Love' has some unusual heroes painted in some of the best and most exciting language we've had from Old Man Luedecke yet. There's Zoe, who finds lawns a yawn and plants a garden instead at her suburban home and thus is the 'Spirit of the age, a breaker of the cage, she's a proof of love'. There's the hero of 'Ain't Goin My Way', the everyman that sings about overstretching himself who's 'inner napoleon' hastens him to a fall. 'Sad as a Forest' details the bitterness of a single leaf in the fall whose life could have been brilliant but feels, instead, 'sad as a forest that's all been cut down'. 'Big Group Breakfast' is a celebration of the hangover meal where friends ...
