Description
Vince Clarke has hand signed in red ink the front cover of the Erasure LP “The Circus.” This is the cutaway front cover version – The Circus is the second album by Erasure, originally released in March 1987 on Mute Records in the UK and by Sire Records in July 1987 in the U.S. It was Erasure’s second consecutive album to be produced by Flood. The Circus became the duo’s breakthrough in the UK, spawning four hit singles and reaching number six. It was an immediate success thanks to the number two UK placing of the first single “Sometimes”, six months earlier. The album remains Erasure’s longest-running on the UK charts. Although mainstream success in the U.S. did not occur with this album, it did generate two hits (including a number-one) on Billboard’s Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. It also became their first record to enter into the Billboard 200.
