Biography

Following the disbandment of the short-lived synth pop group Yazoo, former Depeche Mode member Vince Clarke formed Erasure in 1985 with singer Andy Bell. Like Yaz and Depeche Mode, Erasure were a synth-based group, but they had stronger dance inclinations, as well as a sharper, more accessible sense of pop songcraft, than either of Clarke's previous bands. Furthermore, Erasure had the flamboyantly… Read more in Amazon's Erasure Store

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't be "GUILTY!" of passing this up, August 12, 1999
By 
Joel Kathrens (Spokane, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Drama / Sweet Baby (Audio CD)
With three mixes of one of Erasure's top 5 best songs, three mixes of one of their best instrumentals (unless you count a robot voice as lyrics) and two versions of another B side, you've got a "single" that's actually longer than the entire "WILD!" album. There are no bad mixes here, with even the seven plus minute long "Krucial" mix of "Drama!" never dragging. The only thing wrong with this is that "Paradise" is a little below average as Erasure songs go. But hey, a single should be about the actual single song with the B-sides just being a bonus, and based on that this is five stars going on six. Another single to try is the "Star" single which boasts a superior version of that song to what the album has to offer, coupled with Erasure's best B-side, "Dreamlike State". I think Amazon no longer sells the "Star" single....but they should :-)

5.0 out of 5 stars Get this before it disappears!, September 3, 2000
By 
L. Benavides (Visalia, California USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Drama / Sweet Baby (Audio CD)
If you are an erasure fan, you know that this is by far one of the most cherished and best CD singles the band has ever put out. "Drama!" is also one of their best B-sides even in remixed form. With mixes by Bob Kraushaar and Mark Saunders, the song with it's very impressive hook and bass line, is almost instantly addictive. "Sweet, Sweet Baby" had an underground following fora while, sampling off campy films such as Barbarella and Dark Star. This is a must have for any erasure fan.

3.0 out of 5 stars euro-disco with sugar on it, July 22, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Drama / Sweet Baby (Audio CD)
This is probably Erasure at one of their finest points. This CD was released at a point when the duo kept getting better and better, going from "Sometimes" to "Oh L'Amour" to "Chains of Love" to the radio/MTV hit "A Little Respect" and then this one. They were pretty big at this point and it shows in the very self-congratulating use of giant brassy synth stabs in success called "Drama!". It's a very fun CD, if you don't like the whole Erasure-esque esperience then you will detest every moment of this CD. It is extremely sugary. "Sweet, Sweet Baby" had underground appeal in 1989 with a very euro piano-house vibe, vocoder robot voice, and shrill strings. "Paradise" is in the Erasure mood. This is a few releases before this duo become predictable and bland and too political.
