Depeche Mode - BBC Sessions, Volume 1: In Concert, Hammersmith Odeon, London, Britain, 10-8-1983

Back in the early 1980s, when I was an early teenager, I enjoyed the first few Depeche Mode albums. I gradually lost track of them by the end of the 1980s though. It just so happens that although Depeche Mode hasn't performed for the BBC all that much, they did do two concerts in the early 1980s, which still is my favorite time period of their music. So here's the first of those two.

This concert took place shortly after the release of the "Construction Time Again" studio album. Depeche Mode was still rising in popularity so they probably felt they needed the BBC's help to get more publicity. 

Two more songs, "And Then..." and "Boys Say Go," were played at this concert. However, they weren't on any broadcasts or bootlegs of it, so they don't appear here. Also, most bootlegs say this concert happened on October 6th, but according to a definitive Depeche Mode wiki, it actually happened on October 8th.

This album is an hour and 11 minutes long.

This cover photo may or may not be from this exact concert, I don't know. What I do know if that I found it on the expired BBC page for this concert. So at least it's not from this exact concert, it's from that time period. Too bad it only shows two of the four band members at the time.
