Au cœur de l'automne 1984, les images télévisées de la terrible famine qui ravage la population de l'Ethiopie depuis des mois ont choqué le monde occidental. Et parmi ceux qui ne veulent pas rester au stade du téléspectateur impuissant, un rocker, le chanteur d'un groupe irlandais : les Boomtown Rats. Bob Geldof est un artiste New Wave de la première heure, ça fait déjà pas mal d'années qu'il est actif : il a vu passer les Sex Pistols, les Clash, arriver les Simple Minds, U2, The Cure. Et bien sûr, il a des amis proches dont Midge Ure, la nouvelle voix d'Ultravox. Arrivé dans le groupe en 1979 après trois albums qui n'ont pas trouvé leur public, Midge Ure a déjà roulé sa bosse de musicien guitariste durant toute la décennie écoulée. Ecossais d'origine, il commence sa carrière en rejoignant un groupe de Glasgow, en 1974, dont il devient à vingt ans le guitariste chanteur et qui connaît un énorme succès l'année suivante, N°1 en Grande-Bretagne, N°3 en Belgique, le groupe s'appelle Slik et oui, c'est la première fois que nous entendons la voix de Midge Ure. Mais on ne va pas avoir le temps d'imprimer sa voix car un grave accident de voiture contraint le groupe à se mettre à l'arrêt. L'album qui sort s'écrase dans les charts et en 1977, au revoir le post glam à la Roxy Music et T Rex, Midge Ure, comme tous les gars de la vague glam rock se lance dans le punk. On le retrouve au sein des Rich Kids et un joli succès, en 1978, au Royaume-Uni. Mais bon, malgré ce petit hit encourageant, Midge explique aux autres membres qu'il va falloir changer leur musique : le punk, c'est mort. Que faire ? Ben comme David Bowie depuis deux ans : du synthé, de l'avant-garde. Ah pas question, disent les autres, sauf le batteur : Midge et lui, quittent donc les Rich Kids, et rejoignent un gars dont on parle de plus en plus à Londres.Il se nomme Steve Strange et organise le samedi des Bowie Nights où on vient danser (ou pas) déguisé. Un vrai carnaval sur de la musique électronique. Midge Ure est fasciné par ce monde qu'on commence à appeler Nouveaux Romantiques. Avec son batteur, et le fameux Steve Strange, ils forment Visage, un groupe new wave, fortement teinté de synthé et complètement branché look. Dans le groupe, un certain Billie Curie d'Ultravox qui justement, vient après trois albums de perdre son claviériste. Ça me branche ta façon de voir la musique, tu ne viendrais pas jouer avec nous ?Alors avec un pareil bagage, on ne s'étonne pas que le premier gars que Bob Geldof appelle soit Midge Ure. Qu'est-ce qu'on ferait bien pour sauver les gens en Ethiopie ? Ce qu'on sait faire de mieux : un disque. C'est donc Midge Ure, le compositeur de Vienna joué dans le monde entier qui compose la musique de ce qui va devenir quelques semaines plus tard le single le plus vendu de tous les temps en Grande-Bretagne. Rien d'étonnant quand on sait qu'au même moment où Vienna d'Ultravox faisait un hit, son Fade to Grey était aussi en tête des ventes. 40 ans plus tard, qui n'a jamais entendu cette chanson magique.

In this episode — recorded on the somewhat sombre Wednesday after the U.S. elections — we welcome the wonderful Beverley Glick to our Hammersmith lair and ask her about her New Romantic nom de plume Betty Page. Beverley tells us about her early days on Sounds, where she started out as editor Alan Lewis' secretary, and talks us through her seminal 1980 encounters with Spandau Ballet and Steve Strange. Her subsequent early interview with Duran Duran leads us to clips from David Keeps' 1993 audio interview with the Brummie band's frontman Simon Le Bon. After touching briefly on Depeche Mode, whom Beverley also interviewed very early on, our guest revisits the short-lived Noise! — Sounds' very own attempt at "doing" a Smash Hits — and recounts her subsequent path to the editorship of the rather longer-standing Record Mirror. Memories of mad moments with Happy Mondays (for Vox), and Beverley's eventual graduation to national newspapers, take us to her decision to forsake journalism for a career as a life coach specialising in "leadership communication" — and as the author of this year's In Your Own Words. A few glum thoughts on the political distortion of words such as "freedom" segue into our homage to the brilliant and outrageous Quincy Jones. Mark then quotes from newly-added library pieces about the Who (1965) and Ronnie Scott (1979)... and Jasper wraps up the episode with his thoughts on articles about "Brazilian Prince" Ed Motta (2006) and Tricky's magnificent Maxinquaye (2023).

In this episode, I am delighted to interview Pete Brooker (From Tailors With Love) about his work about the forthcoming memoir of Timothy Everest MBE.Boy Wanted on Savile Row is a revealing memoir that charts the evolution of British tailoring over the past four decades, starting in the 1980s, when Timothy Everest MBE studied under the rebel of Savile Row, Tommy Nutter, and rubbed shoulders with the likes of Steve Strange and Boy George among the New Romantics club scene.Branching out on his own in the ‘90s, Everest initially styled bands and pop stars, such as George Michael, before he became the spearhead of the ‘Cool Britannia' generation and the face of the New Bespoke Movement. His many bespoke clients included Tom Cruise, David Beckham, Mick Jagger and Jay-Z, to name a few. Eventually he would turn his hand to tailoring for films, such as the James Bond and Mission Impossible franchises, and would create some truly iconic suits.Featuring a wealth of celebrity anecdotes, both hilarious and tragic, Boy Wanted on Savile Row leads the reader through a landscape of bespoke British tailoring that would change the way we view and buy our clothes forever.The book is available for pre-order on Amazon, now.You can find Pete on Instagram and Youtube: @FromTailorsWithLoveMessage me anytime on Instagram, @FlemingNeverDies, or e-mail: AlbionNeverDies@gmail.comCheck out my https://www.youtube.com/britishcultureCheck out my Red Bubble shopSubscribe to my newsletter for update e-mails, random postcards, and stickers: https://youtube.us9.list-manage.com/subscribe?u=b3afdae99897eebbf8ca022c8&id=5165536616Support the show

A principios de década el mundo se encontraba en plena ebullición de ritmos, estilos y géneros. El movimiento Punk despertó a toda una generación con inquietudes e ideas nuevas. La New Wave fue uno de los principales movimientos surgidos después del Punk, y su influencia se ha notado durante toda la década, el SynhtPop y el New Romantic son un ejemplo. En este Podcast escuchareis artistas provenientes de la New Wave influenciados por el New Romantic y/o el SynthPop, y viceversa. Comenzamos con los ingleses B-Movie, grupo a mitad de camino entre la New Wave y el SynthPop, su mayor (y prácticamente único) éxito fue el maravilloso “Nowhere Girl”. Originalmente publicado en 1980 sin éxito volvieron a grabarlo y publicarlo dos años más tarde convirtiéndose en un éxito en Europa. A Flock of Seagulls, artistas New Wave originales de Liverpool, estuvieron en activo entre 1979 y 1985. Aquí podréis escucharlos por partida doble, el mega hit “I Ran” y “The More You Live, The More You Love”. Spandau Ballet, uno de los lideres del movimiento New Romantic, procedentes de la discoteca Blitz. Durante sus primeros años se notó la influencia de la New Wave, luego continuaron con mucho éxito entre el pop de consumo y el Blue-Eyed Soul. Aquí podréis escuchar 2 de sus primeros singles. Duran Duran, ejemplo similar a Spandau Ballet, aunque no proceden de la escena del Blitz han hecho suyo el New Romantic, con pinceladas de SynthPop, New Wave y Pop. Vendieron más de 100 millones de copias durante toda su carrera, convirtiéndose en uno de los artistas mas famosos de la década. Podéis escuchar dos singles de su primer álbum. Los londinenses de Ultravox, formados a mediados de los 70s influenciados principalmente por el Post-Punk en sus orígenes y luego de un cambio de formación continuaron hacia el SynthPop barra New Romantic barra New Wave. Aquí suena uno de sus mayores éxitos Dancing With Tears in My Eyes”. Y hablando de Ultravox, cabe mencionar a John Foxx, primer cantante del grupo, quien los abandono al acabar una gira para abocarse en su carrera como solista. Ha tenido algunos singles y discos de éxito, sobre todo en UK. Su mayor éxito fue “Europe After the Rain” que suena en el Podcast. A pesar que muchos recordéis a Kim Wilde como una cantante de Pop, sus comienzos fueron entre el SynthPop y la New Wave. Al día de hoy sigue en activo y uno de sus primeros éxitos fue “Kids in Amerika”. Peter Schilling es un cantante alemán que trascendió su país con el exitazo de 1983 “Major Tom (Coming Home)” una revisión del Space Oddity de Bowie. Fue su único éxito en los USA, convirtiéndolo en un “One-Hit Wonder en aquel país. Antes he mencionado la discoteca Blitz, y no podemos olvidarnos de Visage, combo creado por Steve Strange. Su canción “Mind of a Toy” llegó al Top-20 en el Reino Unido. Real Life, grupo de Synth-Pop, New Wave australiano, publicaron varios LP y singles durante la década, el single más recordado es “Send Me an Angel” aquí podréis escuchar su versión del año 89, la original fue publicada en 1983. En 1984 Giorgio Moroder y Philip Oakey (The Human League) publicaron un single conjunto “Together in Electric Dreams” como banda sonora de la película “Electric Dream”, de esta colaboración surgió un álbum publicado un año más tarde. En 1981 Ian Craig Marsh y Martyn Ware abandonan The Human League y junto a Glenn Gregory crean Heaven 17, publicando varios singles de éxito durante la década. Uno de los primeros éxitos fue “(We Don't Need This) Fascist Groove Thang” que suena al final del podcast. Espero que os guste la selección y disfruten del Podcast.

In this episode we welcome the excellent Gary Kemp to RBP's Hammersmith HQ and invite him to talk about Spandau Ballet, the New Romantics and Pink Floyd. After describing the pop baptism that was watching David Bowie sing 'Starman' on Top of the Pops, Gary recalls seeing the Sex Pistols at the Screen on the Green; the Bowie nights at Billy's; Steve Strange and the Blitz kids; and the formation of the band that became Spandau Ballet. With special reference to Betty Page's Sounds pieces on Spandau, we discuss the New Romantics and their complex relationship with the music press. From Spandau to Floyd is not a segue anyone would have made back in 1979, but Gary explains how he saw the half-century-old Dark Side of the Moon played live at Wembley's Empire Pool in 1974 and how he later joined forces with Floyd drummer Nick Mason in Saucerful of Secrets. In the course of a conversation about Dark Side, we hear clips from Jim Sullivan's 1997 phone interview with the late Rick Wright, who reflects on the state of Syd Barrett and his own (temporary) firing from Floyd. With a nod to Rockonteurs — Gary's own great podcast with Saucerful of Secrets bassist Guy Pratt — we pay tribute to the late David Crosby, who was the duo's guest in early 2020. Mark then talks us out with quotes from pieces about the Beatles (1966), the New York Dolls (1973) and Joni Mitchell at the Troubadour (1968 and 1973), after which Jasper concludes the episode with quotes from reviews of Björk's Homogenic (1997) and a Manchester "Gods of Rap" show starring Wu Tang Clan, De La Soul and Public Enemy... Many thanks to special guest Gary Kemp. Visit his website at garykemp.com and find the Rockonteurs at rockonteurs.com. Pieces discussed: A Manifesto for the Eighties, Spandau Ballet, the New Romantics, Rick Wright audio, Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon, Nick Mason, The Byrds' David Crosby, A Hippy out of Hell, A Long Strange Trip, The New York Dolls, The Beatles, Joni Mitchell at the Troubadour in 1968 and then in 1973, Björk and Gods of Rap.

You'll know a few from album sleeves too. She talks here about some favourites – Nick Logan in the Face office, Bryan Ferry, Bowie with Marc Bolan, Martin Fry in the famous gold lamé suit, Siouxsie in ‘Japanese chic', Steve Strange and the day Frankie Goes To Hollywood turned up dressed as cowboys and swinging a lasso. The description of Leigh Bowery bursting out of a cab, festooned with piercings and painted blue, is worth the price of admission alone.  ‘80s: Sound and Vision' by Sheila Rock …https://www.amazon.co.uk/80s-Sound-Vision-Nilgin-Yusuf/dp/0711278776Subscribe to Word In Your Ear on Patreon and receive every future Word Podcast before the rest of the world, alongside a whole host of extra and exclusive content, benefits and rewards!: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Rusty Egan's influence on New Romantic music is often overlooked and underplayed. He was the drummer in Rich Kids where he met Midge Ure, and after collaborating in a few other bands, he eventually formed Visage with him. He brought on board Steve Strange and Billy Currie who was in Ultravox with Midge joined. They were the seminal fashion/music band of the early 80s, combining a heavily styled look and electronic music. Their hits included ‘Fade to Grey', ‘The Dancer', and ‘Night Train'. When Visage was in their early phase, Rusty and Steve Strange opened 'Blitz', the legendary London club which became the focal point of the New Romantic movement. Boy George worked on the coat check, Steve Strange on the door, and the later fashion and film director luminaries were the regulars, who used to dance to Egan's choice of music that in itself had an impact on the music that was to come to prominence and be influential in Britain during that era.Rusty is a fascinating, entertaining, and opinionated character. He doesn't hold back on his views of that time, and his role in the music of the 1980s.Rusty Egan's; Blitzed - an album of tracks that reference that time, written for a 2021 documentary about the club for Sky Arts is here:https://www.junodownload.com/products/rusty-egan-rusty-egan-presents-blitzed/5009773-02/Connect with me on Instagram; steve.blameIf you like this podcast then look out for the interviews with Kevin Hegge on his documentary Tramps about the New Romantic era, and also an interview with Sue Tilley.Also, the interview with Wolfgang Flür, formerly of Kraftwerk, might interest you. And thanks to POP; The History Makers insanely wonderful talent booker: #ArchieCMichaelSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/pop-the-history-makers-with-steve-blame/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy Hosted on Acast.

A little late to the party, we finally get round to discussing our thoughts on Steve Strange (not that one) and his multi-versey-timey-wimey movie. Rejoice in Mark's totally random references (Mer-Man from the He-Man cartoon anyone?) and enjoy Elaine's defence of the film's baddie. Be warned: spoilers from 16:37. Enjoy! You can follow us on: Twitter - Instagram - Letterboxd We'd love it if you could leave us a review on Apple Podcasts and leave us a star rating on Spotify.

Not 1 but 2 stories featuring the Sorcerer Supreme! Dr. Strange has deep roots going back to the legendary Stan Lee and Steve Ditko era. Creative teams have always found ways to take the character in new amazing directions. They shatter all expectations, while explore how magic works in the Marvel Universe. The first graphic novel is a Separate Reality by Steve Englehart and Frank Brunner. This book is a excellent crash course that examines a wide variety of themes that Steve Strange fights against to save his soul, save his master: The Ancient One, and confront death itself. Triumph and Torment is the second acclaimed graphic novel by Roger Stern with illustrations by Mike Mignola. A road trip style adventure takes Dr. Strange and teams up with the infamous villain Dr. Doom. Two characters that typically do not interact with each other find a way to work together to save Doom's mother's soul from the greatest evil in the cosmos.

Entre finales de los 70s y comienzos de los 80s en el Reino Unido hubo una explosión de diferentes géneros musicales, Post-Punk, Synthpop, New Romantic, Goth Rock, New Wave, Ska, Reggae, etc. En el caso del New Romantic tuvo su inicio en el año '79 en la ciudad de Londres y más específicamente en la discoteca “Blitz” (cuyo portero era Steve Strange, Líder de Visage y en la guardarropía se encontraba un joven Boy George). Musical y estéticamente estaba muy influenciado por David Bowie y Roxy Music, se puede decir que es un derivado del Glam Rock más sofisticado y glamuroso. Con una estética muy andrógina, looks excéntricos inspirados en el siglo XIX y la estética pirata, mucho maquillaje y mucha laca para crear peinados imposibles, botas de boxeador, trenzas, sombreros, lazos, blusas y nuevamente mucho maquillaje. Musicalmente esta entre la New Wave y el Synthpop, (menos influenciados por el Punk como el primero y no tan electrónicos como el segundo), pero en ocasiones es muy difícil catalogar una canción, también se puede notar pinceladas del Disco y el Funk. Dentro de los principales artistas encontramos a Duran Duran, Spandau Ballet, Kajagoogoo, ABC, otros como Adam Ant o Boy George tenían una estética New Romantic pero musicalmente se acercaban más al Pop o al New Wave, Adam Ant en sus comienzos usaba ropa diseñada para el por Vivianne Westwood y aunque no pertenezca al movimiento desde entonces los etiquetaron como New Romantic. Otros grupos tuvieron un comienzo dentro del género, pero rápidamente comenzaron a experimentar con otros ritmo o grupos que crearon canciones que podrían entrar dentro del sonido New Romantic (Simple Minds, Talk Talk, Heaven 17). Su duración llego hasta mediados de los 80s, (el Blitz cerró sus puertas en 1981), la gran mayoría de bandas se habían separado y otras fueron influenciadas por el Pop ochentero. Su influencia se dejo notar en los primeros años del Italo-Disco, solo ver las portadas o fotos de prensa se nota la estética New Romantic. En este podcast podréis escuchar parte de aquellos artistas y aquellas canciones influenciadas y/o provenientes del New Romantic.

This week, Kirk and Paul talk about New Romantic, the early-80s London club/fashion/music scene pioneered by Steve Strange, Rusty Egan and the Blitz Kids. What does and doesn't count as New Romantic is up for debate, so don't expect any hard answers but do expect some great music.

«The Crying Game» ("El Juego de las lágrimas") es una canción escrita por Geoff Stephens y editada por Dave Berry en julio de 1964. Alcanzó a llegar al puesto número 5 en las listas de popularidad del Reino Unido. George Alan O'Dowd (Londres, 14 de junio de 1961), más conocido como Boy George, es un cantante, músico, diseñador de moda y DJ inglés que alcanzó un alto nivel de fama con su grupo Culture Club en los años 1980. Boy George trabajó en Blitz Club en Great Queen Street, que contaba con Steve Strange como portero y con Boy George como dependiente del guardarropa y donde realizó con Culture Club su primera actuación. George llamó la atención de Malcolm McLaren, un productor que se las arregló para que apareciera como Lieutenant Lush en un concierto de teatro con Annabella Lwin. Aunque el espectáculo de George y Lwin no duró mucho, le presentó a George al DJ anterior Mikey Craig, con quien creó un dúo llamado In praise of Lemmings, con Craig tocando el bajo. Poco después, Jon Moss (batería de The Dammed, Adam and the Ants y Londres, que también fue pareja de Boy George) y Roy Hay formaron Sex Gang Children y finalmente Culture Club. Se caracterizaba principalmente por su aspecto andrógino, con labios y ojos intensamente maquillados y el cabello largo o en trenzas, de hecho, en su debut en el programa Top Of The Pops de la BBC en 1982, la audiencia se preguntaba si era un chico o una chica. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/radioflowok/message

From performing solo tours on VH1, Sonisphere, and Bloodstock – to collaborating with the likes of Gary Numan, Steve Strange, and David Prowse, diverse music artist Jayce Lewis has been the jack of all trades throughout his highlighted career. And now, all of his experience brings him into the centerfold of the dark and ambient, industrial rock band Ascension Of The Watchers. Joining forces with Burton Bell and John Bechdel has them primed for a decade in the making of their 3rd studio album “Apocrypha”. Jayce talks about his relationships with the two bandmates and the recording producing process which he took over on the helm. Everything lined up perfectly to engineer their most unique and innovative release to date. Listen in now as Jayce illustrates his journey from where he started to where he is now which pushed him to the limit that elevated him into a better person, friend, and musician. Ascension Of The Watchers long awaited 3rd studio album “Apocrypha” drops October 9th on Dissonance Records.

Fun one with my best buddy, Steve Strange. We had to do a do-over of our original discussion due to a tech snafu (which we discuss in our chat) but I think this came out better than that one. Ostensibly the idea here is fandom: is it OK to force what you like on your kids? How do you know if the resulting fandom is authentic or are they just liking something because "daddy likes it"? And does it matter? In reality this is really more about Star Wars. Steve and I bonded of Star Wars (among other things) in our 20s and it's always been part of our friendship. In fact we're strongly considering starting a separate show where they two of us just talk about Star Wars and other stuff we're enjoying and we'll let you know when that comes out.

In episode 45 UNP founder and curator Grant Scott is in his shed considering applications for the UNP mentorship programme, online paid reviews, and how to price prints to sell.  Plus this week photographer Derek Ridgers takes on the challenge of supplying Grant with an audio file no longer than 5 minutes in length in which he answer's the question ‘What Does Photography Mean to You?' Derek Ridgers, is an English photographer with a career spanning over thirty years. The emergence of punk rock in the UK in the late 1970S fascinated Ridgers and amongst his first published work were pictures taken at punk gigs at the Hammersmith Palais, London. During this time he photographed Adam and the Ants, The Slits, Penetration, The Clash and The Damned, work exhibited at the Institute of Contemporary Arts, London in 1978. Ridgers became a professional photographer and began working regularly for music and style magazines such as the NME and The Face as well as documenting the British fetish club scene. He also began to photograph music and film stars of the era, for national newspapers and other publications, such as Frank Zappa, John Lee Hooker, The Ramones, Prince, The Spice Girls, J. G. Ballard, Richard Harris and Martin Amis. As well as photographing a wide range of musicians, actors, writers and athletes, during his long tenure as a cover/features photographer at Loaded magazine Ridgers established his own page of club photographs called Getting Away With It, which ran for fifteen years until 2010. Many of these black and white fetish club scene photographs were later included in the book Stare: Portraits from the Endless Night. His book When We were Young: Club and Street Portraits 1978 – 1987 collects together portraits of young skinheads, punks and new romantics from the seventies through to the late eighties; many, like Boy George, Steve Strange and Spandau Ballet, photographed whilst still unknown. Ridgers has worked for Time Out, The Sunday Telegraph, NME, The Face, Loaded, The Independent on Sunday, The Guardian, The Observer, The Sunday Times, The Independent, GQ, GQ Style, Melody Maker and Sounds. www.derekridgers.com You can also access and subscribe to these podcasts at SoundCloud https://soundcloud.com/unofphoto on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/gb/podcast/a-photographic-life/id1380344701 on Player FM https://player.fm/series/a-photographic-life and Podbean www.podbean.com/podcast-detail/i6uqx-6d9ad/A-Photographic-Life-Podcast Grant Scott is the founder/curator of United Nations of Photography, a Senior Lecturer in Professional Photography at the University of Gloucestershire, a working photographer, and the author of Professional Photography: The New Global Landscape Explained (Focal Press 2014) and The Essential Student Guide to Professional Photography (Focal Press 2015).

In my part of the world, at least, it's so hot that sweat sweats, stadium vendors are selling "luke warm" dogs and Paris Hilton has changed her catch phrase to "That's cold." And August has just begun! I'm afraid it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better. Thankfully the opposite is true for this podcast. This week, CRC continues its new wave hangover from the previous episode with great old tracks from The Mood, Visage, The Cure and New Order among the selections. The Mood were from York over in the UK. They formed in 1980 and, like so many other groups, members John Moore, Mark James Fordyce, Steve Carter, John Dalby and Eric James Logan met in a local music store they frequented. This particular establishment was called Track Records. As it was with Fad Gadget, Depeche Mode appeared as The Mood's supporting act for several early live gigs. (Funny how DM eventually surpassed so many of the groups for whom they opened.) The song here, Don't Stop, was released in 1982 and peaked at number 59 on the UK singles chart, but did reach the top spot on the UK dance chart, which had recently been introduced. Between their formation and dissolution in 1984, the band released 5 singles, but none did well enough for their label RCA to support a full album, though a 5-track mini-album was released in the US. A deal with EMI never materialized after the group left RCA and they split up in 1984.     OMD have appeared several times before on CRC. Though mostly remembered for If You Leave, their bittersweet contribution to the awesome Pretty in Pink soundtrack, Andy McClusky and Paul Humphries strung together an amazing collection of pop hits throughout the 80s. The song here, So in Love, originally appeared on the Crush album, which was released in 1985. The album was the first that producer extraordinaire Stephen Hague (Pet Shop Boys, New Order and others) produced on his own. Though a little nervous, he and the band got along splendidly. The tracks for the album were recorded at Manor Residential studios in Oxford, an isolated locale which led to "long work days and a heroic amount of drinking," according to Stephen. As for the remix that appears here, Andy said that it "... was recorded with some live drums and most of the other instruments were from the Fairlight CMI sequencer, but all put to tape. Therefore, the 12" was made of a series of dub runs of the multi-track onto two track tape, then all spliced together like the good old analogue days." OMD recently released another studio album and have been touring quite liberally over the past year.  It's not often cover songs show up on this podcast, but in the case of Always on My Mind, I made an exception. Here, the Pet Shop Boys do their thing to Brenda Lee's 1972 country music hit, though Willie Nelson's version from ten years later may be fresher in most minds. Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe released this particular mix of the song in 1988 for their six-song album Introspective. They originally recorded the track for an ITV television special in Britain commemorating the 10-year anniversary of Elvis Presley's death (he covered the song as well). The song was such a sensation that the duo released the track as a single. The version here melds the original track with an acid-house track called In My House, which you will hear in its partiality before giving way to Dead Or Alive. A little trivia: In 2004, The Daily Telegraph slotted PSB's version of Always on My Mind at number two on their list of the 50 greatest cover songs of all time. It is a dandy, indeed.  Speaking of cover tunes, one of Visage's earliest demos was a cover of Zagar and Evans' In the Year 2525, a haunting tune about man's inquisitive, yet self-absorbed and self-destructive nature. Formed by Steve Strange, the ubiquitous club kid, Visage were a distinctive zag(ar?) to the zigging of the post-punk movement going on at the end of the 70s. With ex-Rich Kids members vocalist Midge Ure and Rusty Egan already in tow, Ultravox's Billie Currie and bassist Barry Adamson, guitarist John McGeogh and keyboardist Dave Formula from the band Magazine joined forces with the group and released their first single, Tar - probably not the best choice, but it was material leftover from Strange's time in his previous band The Photons. Still, the difference between making your mark or not in the music biz often boils down to timing and for the next release, the group, now on Polydor instead of the tiny Radar Records, released their most successful song, Fade to Grey. It went on to sell massively throughout Europe and the single jump-started what would become the New Romantic movement. A few other notes: In case you hadn't figured it out, The Beach is more or less the instrumental version of New Order's phenomenal dance track Blue Monday; mad props to the guys at Razormaid! for their absolutely killer mix of Debbie Harry's In Love With Love. My advice after hearing this version? Don't ever think about listening to the original on the Rockbird album - it's completely lifeless by comparison; a couple of episodes ago, you heard Snappy, the b-side to the Chorus single from Erasure. Well, here is the actual single, in a trance remix form you may never have heard before; finally, though it's far from my favorite track by Book of Love, band member Ted Ottaviano provides one of the better quotes you'll hear about a song. He said of Witchcraft, "While writing our second album I came up with this unrequited love song. The recipe is pretty clear: 1 part Greek Mythology, 1 part Nick at Night and a dash of JJ Fad." Good stuff! That's it for this episode. Please support the artists, for they make this all possible. Check back very soon for another new episode and thanks to everyone for listening! Cheers!
