Amazed this is going ahead. Virgin should have delayed it all things considered. I guess it was recorded in December, when Vince was in the UK, but even so it does gall me a little hearing the positive promotion of it on Virgin this morning - made it sound like Vince was going to be live, too!

It was recorded in November when he was over here for his live show,Tracy was mentioned before the actual interview.



Synth-pop pioneer and 80s music icon Vince Clarke sits down with Steve Denyer to pick his personal playlist of songs, chat about his career with Depeche Mode and Erasure, and discuss what's next for the revolutionary songwriter

Note: This special was recorded before Vince Clarke's wife Tracey Martin passed away, all of our thoughts at Virgin Radio are with Vince and his family.
