YAZOO Chasing The DRAGONS

Yazoo are releasing a four-vinyl (or three-CD) compendium of their brief career, with remixes and BBC radio sessions

Vince Clarke pulls a can of Modelo out of a well-stocked fridge in the lavish backstage surroundings of Los Angeles’ Wiltern Theatre. In just a few hours, he and his Erasure partner, Andy Bell, are due to perform the second of four sold-out shows to an audience of nearly 2,000. These will be the last dates of a global tour that’s lasted the entire year, as well as the culmination of an exceptionally busy period in the band’s career, one which has delivered two contrasting but intertwined releases – World Be Gone and World Beyond – as well as a live album, World Be Live. No wonder he spent the day before with his wife and son at the beach.

BRAVE NEW WORLD
WHEN TONY HADLEY LEFT SPANDAU BALLET LAST YEAR, IT COULD HAVE FINISHED THEM. INSTEAD, THEY’VE RECRUITED A YOUNGER SINGER – IN MUSICALS STAR ROSS WILLIAM WILD – AND ARE DETERMINED TO PROVE THE DOUBTERS WRONG. IN THEIR FIRST MAJOR GROUP INTERVIEW SINCE ROSS JOINED, THE BAND EXPLAIN: “WE’D GONE A BIT STAGNANT AND WERE TAKING LIFE FOR GRANTED. NOW WE’VE GOT OUR EXCITEMENT BACK.”
CLASSIC ALBUM

WHEN MICHAEL JACKSON JOINED HIS BROTHERS IN THE JACKSON 5, A STAR WAS BORN. AS A SOLO ARTIST, HE WENT ON TO BECOME ONE OF THE WORLD’S MOST RECOGNISABLE STARS AND THE UNDISPUTED KING OF POP, BEFORE CONTROVERSY DERAILED HIS CAREER AND TRAGEDY EVENTUALLY STRUCK.
NILE COUNSEL
Few musicians have successfully navigated popular culture with the skill and bravado of Nile Rodgers. The guitarist’s pioneering band Chic first galloped onto the UK charts in 1977 with Dance, Dance, Dance (Yowsah, Yowsah, Yowsah) and since then, his output has generated over £600 million in record sales. After graduating from disco, he became the go-to hitmaker for David Bowie, Duran Duran, Madonna, Debbie Harry, Sister Sledge, Grace Jones, Daft Punk… the list goes on and on. Classic Pop caught up with Nile at his new residence – the legendary Abbey Road Studios, where he was recently appointed Chief Creative Advisor. London may have become his spiritual and creative home, but his latest Chic LP, It’s About Time, reveals he’s also on a mission to save the entire planet from self destruction… one club at a time.
