Quite what Erasure’s catalogue team are doing with the duo’s vinyl releases is a head-scratcher, but here are the first three of their 2010s albums back on wax, having last been out in 2016.
Meanwhile, Erasure’s recent 2CD reissues of albums that are somewhat scarcer on vinyl, from I Say I Say I Say to Cowboy, haven’t had any represses accompanying the semi-deluxe CDs. It’s a mess. A MESS.
Stop ranting, you say? Right. Anyway... any excuse to revisit Erasure is, of course, welcome, with Tomorrow’s World especially overlooked. Having worked with Ellie Goulding and Tinie Tempah, producer Frankmusik was briefly in vogue, but this was the only major artist whose album he fully produced before heading to L.A.’s underground club scene.
