Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Since they formed in 1985, Erasure-Andy Bell and Vince Clarke (founding member of Depeche Mode and Yaz) have sold more than 15 million albums with their world-conquering anthems of love, lust and longing. From dance-floor symphonies
to swooning ballads, the definitive synth-pop superstars have proven themselves one of best loved and most enduring success stories in modern British pop music history. Rhino shows Erasure more than 'a little respect' with TOTAL POP!, a four-disc (3CD/DVD) box featuring: all their singles from 1986-2007, newly remastered in 2009; live recordings spanning 1987-2007; and a DVD disc that unreels BBC performances
from 1986-2005.

5.0 out of 5 stars An absolute delight., April 15, 2009

By	Michael S. Kays (Santa Cruz, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Here's a band who's been around for almost 25 years, and they've never stopped. After their massive pop success, many figured them to be over and done. In fact, they continued their brilliance and it's just kept getting better and better.

For old and new fans alike, this boxset will have delights in store for all. Never before seen pictures in a thick, hardcover book (yes, BOOK), that will simply astound. There is a CD of remastered live tracks from various tours (actually I believe all the CDs in the set contain remastered material), as well as a DVD of some of their most treasured live moments.

The second half of their musical history is a testament to their creative genius. And with a new album already slated in the works (back to their electronic roots, we've been told), life looks up once more, with Erasure at the helm. Bravo!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars 25 years of great music!, September 10, 2009

By	Craig Farlow "clstraydog" (Lake Arrowhead, Ca USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When I first heard these guys in 1989,The Innocents,I wore the tape out!These guys havent let me down since!I was especially happy to hear "The hardest part"without introductions inthe middle of it.I was a bit surprised that " Alien" was nowhere to be found but the TV gigs were a hoot! My favorite songs writers of all time are the Beatles but after hearing their acoustic versions of some of Clarke&Bells past hits I realized these guys are a close second and they're still around and very prolific! Thanks for all the fun and beautiful songs!
