In March 2016, I celebrated Black Celebration's 30th birthday with a month long, post a day thing. That album is now nearly, gulp, 40 years old.
Here's the highlight - an interview with producer Gareth Jones

Superb timing! That JPC packaging is excellent. Properly robust
The fifth and final version arrives and now I have one of each #depechemode
Various Violator tapes #depechemode
Quick review: Survive - rather nice, quite mellow 8/10, Life 2.0 - good, some vocoder, crap title 8/10, Give Yourself To Me - starts slow but builds nicely, good 7/10 In The End - decent as we know, 3rd best here #DepecheMode
A new @depechemode.com live album has arrived
Missed theirs sadly. Silver from HMV and blue from DM US on the way though.
A tremendous episode and spot on comments re the new DM album and formats
(I’m only getting 8 out of the 9 available.) 😩
Depeche Mode CDs - before and after. A satisfying Friday evening #DepecheMode
July 19th, and a confused Trump asks Infantino what ‘get yersel tae fuck’ means as Grant Hanley barges him out of the trophy presentation
I’d somehow held it together all night and that got me!
Various Violator cassettes #depechemode
Thanks!
REVIEW: DEPECHE MODE: M
Not a concert film but a hugely enjoyable film about Depeche Mode.

OK Depeche Mode fans, this promo poster for “Blasphemous Rumours/Somebody” is at the Henry Ford Museum outside Detroit. A representation of a "teenager's bedroom from 1987.” @depechemode.com @dmdevotee.com @davidjmcelroy.bsky.social @headed4thebeach.bsky.social @permrecordpod.bsky.social
