ABC: Metro, Boston, 17 December 1982

The stylish boys of synth took posturing to a new height. Sharp dressing Martin Fry and the boys sure knew how to put on a show - or did they? With a sound largely created in the studio - honed to tick all the radio playlist checkboxes - hitting the road required some serious help on stage.

That said, you can't deny they knew how to pen a memorable tune! Their material really suits the big band sound and Fry is more camp than a row of tents - there's even a whole song just to introduce the band!

The sound quality is good, and the CD comes with a newly designed cover and disc art.
