Live in Brighton on Erasureinfo YouTube (audio)
Posted: Sun Nov 23, 2025 6:38 pm
So... here's a curious thing that seems to have been added to the official Erasure channel on YouTube - ALL of the tracks from the radio broadcast of the 1987 Circus tour at Brighton Dome (uploaded 12 days ago apparently). Judging by the cover art used and the logo in particular (which is the fan-made 'erasure' font), it looks like it's a bootleg, which makes it more curious that it's on the official channel. Having said that, the official Depeche Mode channel has been doing this with live concerts for a while now.
Note that these tracks - like quite a few things uploaded to the official channel - are not collected anywhere to make them easy to find eg like in the Videos or Releases tab. (It's a similar situation with the Cowboy deluxe edition - it's all on YouTube, but weirdly not listed)
In no particular order, the ones I have found are:
Who Needs Love Like That
Leave Me To Bleed
Don't Dance
Push Me Shove Me*
Spiralling
The Circus
Victim Of Love
It Doesn't Have T Be (sic)
Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
Oh, L'Amour
If I Could
Say What
Sometimes
*This would be the nearest to an official release this track has ever had. There's a 'skip' near the start though, which suggests it could be mastered from the transcription disc or something, rather than the original source.
