Notes
Named after producer Eric Radcliffe's house, where the album was recorded upstairs (they had to build a studio in ten days because Blackwing Studios was fully booked) from Vince Clarke's Splendid Studios. The "Eric's Mum" vocal credit on the album belongs to the Eric's mother who provided them all with "egg and chips" and also appeared on the record.

The epitome of the 1980's electronic pop seen. Fantastic hooks and fabulous vocals from Alison Moyet at her prime. Upstairs at Eric's has to be seen as a classic of the genre. If you haven't got this album and you like 1980's electronic pop your missing out, it's a must have. My original UK version sounds exceptional.referencing Upstairs At Eric's (LP, Album, Stereo) 9 23737-1
Both sides of mine have #2 after at the end of the runout, but I don’t see a 0 anywhere. I tried two different versions of the MoFi pressing, and both had terrible noise from the pressing. I mean, unlistenable. Took a leap and got this one from Discogs and it is superior in every way. This 41 year old pressing is super quiet and very dynamic, with a full sound. The best I’ve heard!- the sound is very clean. only thing is it is pretty quiet. BUT i know the digital version of the album is quiet too. i guess thats just the way they made this album. i love it
- Terrible vinyl quality. Shame! Tons of pops. Absurd really. These days there's much better vinyl pressings possible, was hoping for a crisp and clear Yazoo revival at home. Sounds even worse than my 80's copy. Mute Records, you guys have work to do.
- Edited 3 months agoMine has too much surface noise. It’s distracting on quiet parts like the opening of midnight. Best part of the album ruined. Louder parts are fine. But between songs it’s like spinning sandpaper

Early Canadian edition is hotter than the first West German but tends to have a bit more low end, and the inclusion of Situations makes it well worth while.- Edited 3 months agoA warmer and better balanced edition than the North American releases. An excellent digital recording. Of course the inclusion of Situations would have been ducky.
- This is a beutiful elctronic vocal album from 80's and this UK pressing sounds great. The sound is warm, punchy and crispy. I would really like that Vince Clarke and Alisson Moyet made more albums together, but fortunetley we have two album beauties.
- Edited 7 months agoI lump this into the pile of cassettes that I owned or "borrowed" that were underappreciated back in the mid 80's. Yaz and oddly enough Kraftwerk. Took many listens to get it.
