A perfect sound for today

VINCE CLARKE and ALISON MOYET created something so special.
I pulled out the YAZOO CDs today because this week's forecast features a hint of WINTER, and we all needed a synth-pop lift after my wife JILL broke her foot.
Clarke's computerized bleeps and blips should never have worked with Moyet's bluesy voice, but the combination actually produced a timeless music that even transcends the 1980s production values.
I heard the extended version of "NOBODY'S DIARY" en route home from work. It's such a powerful song, with a catchy tune and lyrics that stand above the usual fare of the time -- or our time, to be honest.
It's a song I needed to hear today -- as winter begins to creep into the picture, and the implications of Jill's injury begin to become clearer.

Great blog. The piece on Sonny Clark is interesting. Jerry Good the bassist, my father provided Uptown Record the records which is acknowledge in the notes, unfortunately he died right before the record was released he nor his estate ever received a penny for providing those recordings and all the work he did in preparing the notes. When Uptown was contacted by our family they never responded. Typical exploitaction of Jazz musicians.
