Yazoo fridge magnet

Yazoo were formed in 1981 in Basildon, Essex, consisting of former Depeche Mode member Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet. The synth-pop duo formed after Clarke responded to an advertisement Moyet placed in a British music magazine, although the pair had known each other since their schooldays.

Over the next 18 months the duo albums Upstairs at Eric's and You and Me Both, received critical acclaim for Clarke's synthesizer melodies blended with Moyet's blues and soul influenced vocals.
Yazoo enjoyed worldwide success, with three of their four singles reached the top three of the UK Singles Chart and both their albums made the top two of the UK Albums Chart.

Despite their success the group split in 1983, with Clarke going on to form Erasure, another successful and longer-lasting synth-pop duo, while Moyet embarked on a highly successful solo career.
