More Innocent Than The Original

Mute208 | SF Bay Area, CA | 10/30/2009

(5 out of 5 stars)

"It's hard to believe, but it has been 21 years since Erasure released their venerable album, The Innocents. It charted in the top 50 in the US, finally bringing the duo of Andy Bell and Vince Clarke into the consciousness of American radio waves. It also happened to be my first Erasure album. I immediately fell in love with Andy's voice and Vince's one-man synth explosion. I rushed out to buy their first two albums, Wonderland and Circus, soon afterwards, as well as every Erasure album since. However, no other album brings me back to those happy days as a young Erasure listener than The Innocents.

The 13 tracks on the remaster are exactly the same as the original that was released worldwide in the spring of 1986. It only sounds SO much better. They did an excellent job remastering the LP and wow-- Andy's voice is so much more vibrant while the music and synthesizers sound more crisp and colorful.

If you enjoy/ed The Innocents in the first release, the remaster is well worth getting to replace it. It's almost, like replacing a favorite VHS movie with the DVD version. However, for die-hards, I strongly recommend you take a look at the 21st Anniversary Edition as it offers the loyal Erasure fan so much more. Congratulations to the boys for their success and longevity! I am eagerly awaiting their next studio album, due out in late 2010."
