Yazoo - Upstairs At Eric's Vinyl LP

Catalogue number MOFI 1-020

A 1980s Landmark: Ex-Depeche Mode Member Vince Clarke and Vocalist Alison Moyet Create Synthpop Classic

Smoky Blues Purring, Cool Jazz Vibes, Disco-Tinged Beats, and Dancefloor Minimalism Add Up to Electropop Genius

All the Grooves Hit the Low-Frequency Targets: LP Mastered on Mobile Fidelity’s World-Renowned Mastering System and Pressed at RTI

Includes Hits “Don’t Go,” “Situation,” and “Only You”


The 1980s will forever be remembered for electropop sensations, yet few, if any, are quite as sensational as Yazoo’s Upstairs at Eric’s. A standard-setting mélange of smoky blues singing, jazzy arrangements, disco-tinged beats, and dancefloor vibes, the smash debut fits equally as well at a late-night club as it does in a living room, where the record’s complexity and exoticism takes listeners hostage. No wonder the 1982 landmark remains one of the decade’s most essential albums.

Mastered on Mobile Fidelity’s world-renowned mastering system and pressed at RTI, this numbered limited edition Silver Label LP breathes with a decongested openness, textural richness, and tonal palette never before experienced on previous analog or digital editions. Alison Moyet’s inimitable vocals, such a huge part of the record’s appeal, are dramatically enhanced, her sensual timbre, bittersweet crooning, and knockout range now encompassing the full frequency spectrum and projecting outward in a way that traverses the flatness of the original pressings. 

Indeed, her bluesy deliveries are at once elegant and exuberant, and give collaborative partner Vince Clarke free range to construct beat architectures that encompass freewheeling disco, house music, uptempo dance, and chilled-out pop. The former Depeche Mode member also layers on elegant keyboard melodies, establishing contagious hooks and electronic-laced landscapes that preceded the techno explosion and do so with a cooler elegance. Tape loops, random field-noise dialogues, and synth-stroked bass notes add to what’s nothing less than a perfect collusion of moody paranoia and soulful warmth.

While a cousin to synth-pop LPs by the likes of the Eurythmics, Soft Cell, OMD, and Depeche Mode, Yazoo’s Upstairs at Eric’s is singular for its chemistry between Moyet and Clarke — and a carefree batch of songs high on emotion, style, and substance.
