The original line-up was Dave Gahan (lead vocals), Martin Gore (keyboards, guitar, vocals, chief songwriter after 1981), Andrew Fletcher (keyboards) and Vince Clarke
(keyboards, chief songwriter 1980–81 and now in Erasure). Vince Clarke left the band after
the release of their 1981 debut album. He went on to form Yazoo with vocalist Alison Moyet, and was replaced by Alan Wilder
with Gore taking over songwriting. Wilder left the band in 1995 and since then Gahan, Gore, and Fletcher have continued as a trio. Depeche Mode are one of the most successful, influential,
longest-lived bands that have emerged from the early 80's. They have
had forty-five songs in the UK singles chart and #1 albums in UK, US and throughout countries in Europe. Two of my favourite singles were Enjoy The Silence and People Are People (left). The latter was Depeche Mode's tenth UK
single (released on March 12 1984). It was their first hit single in the
US and the first single for the Some Great Reward album. Albums
