Depeche Mode - Speak & Spell (1981) Part 4
Description
Episode 187: Depeche Mode – Speak & Spell (1981) Part 4
Brian & Sarah are back for a Martin Gore-focused look at "Speak and Spell" as they shine a spotlight on the three middle songs on side 2 of Depeche Mode's 1981 debut.
Up till now, this has been the Vince Clarke show; however, with these three tunes, we get the first song written by Martin, the first of many Martin instrumentals, and the first lead vocal by Martin! And to believe that we recorded this one on Vince's birthday!!
Along the way, talk turns to a pair of old movies, a ranking of Depeche Mode instrumentals, the history of the Big Muff effects pedal, Falco, classic 1980s "HWUH"s, and, of course, posh clobber!
Songs discussed in this episode:
Tora! Tora! Tora!
Big Muff
Any Second Now (Voices)
