(CDMUTEL6) Mute 1999
14 Tracks. --mins--secs.
Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet only released two albums in the early eighties, the amazing Upstairs at Eric's, in 1982, and a year later, You And Me Both,  but they've defined a sound recognisable to this day. They've had, since then, particularly successful careers, Vince as one half of Erasure, and Alison on her own. 
This compilation brings toghether the very best of the two albums. Songs like Midnight, Anyone or Winter Kills haven't aged, or so little. Don't Go, Situation or Only You are classics, and there again, these tracks don't sound like they've been recorded nearly 20 years ago. And the 99 remixes only show than the originalS didn't need any fuss to sound good.
