Depeche Mode ORIG OZ LP A broken frame NM ’82 Mute POW6042 Dance rock Synth Pop

Original OZ LP released in 1982 on Mute Records. Cat: POW6042. Comes in a gatefold sleeve. 
Martin Gore has famously noted that Depeche Mode stopped worrying about its future when the first post-Vince Clarke-departure single, "See You," placed even higher on the English charts than anything else Clarke had done with them. Such confidence carries through all of A Broken Frame, a notably more ambitious effort than the pure pop/disco of the band's debut. With arranging genius Alan Wilder still one album away from fully joining the band, Frame became very much Gore's record, writing all the songs and exploring various styles never again touched upon in later years. "Satellite" and "Monument" take distinct dub/reggae turns, while "Shouldn't Have Done That" delivers its slightly precious message about the dangers of adulthood with a spare arrangement and hollow, weirdly sweet vocals. Much of the album follows in a dark vein, forsaking earlier sprightliness, aside from tracks like "A Photograph of You" and "The Meaning of Love," for more melancholy reflections about love gone wrong as "Leave in Silence" and "My Secret Garden."

Tracks : Leave in silence/ My secret garden/ Monument/ Nothing to fear/ See you/ Satellite/ The meaning of love/ A photograph of you/ Shouldn’t have done that/ The sun & the rainfall.
