Body. Soul. Infinite Peace.
There's a saying: "If this was the first ___ you listened to, you're not going to listen to another one."

A classic example.

Numan's PPG Wave-era music was way, way better than this.

Great vocals.
Compelling piano-synths.
And that wonderful woodwind instrument.

You can't go wrong... if you've got the class...

Their other release, 'More To Lose' featured on the 2006 'Retro:active5' Hi-Bias compilation.

'Welcome To The Real World' is worth researching too. Praise to @helenc77.bsky.social for 'Uniform Of Youth' and the title track on #80sTM

Praise to all the tracks tonight so far. Enjoying them all... #forgotten80s

Just tuned in myself.
Am I listening to Travis's older brothers here..?
Good stuff! #80sTM @geebobuk.bsky.social @ginsoaked.bsky.social @helenc77.bsky.social

I once owned the 12" of 'Let Him Go'. I don't believe the old vinyl player my Mum bought, in replacement of her much better vinyl turntable I scratched and broke, did the track much justice in faithful listening!

It's one of the classic Depeche Mode songs that SOUNDS so much better performed live.

Again: 100% music on #forgotten80s

Do you remember 'The Weight Of The Wind', from their second album 'Scoundrel Days'?

Probably the same synth.

The live performance I saw a video of on the other platform sounded quite superb.

Par for the course with a-ha though.
100% music.
