This deluxe edition of Marc Almond and Dave Ball's 1981 debut includes all the B-sides and extended mixes from the synth duo's first (and best) period, plus the pioneering Non-Stop Ecstatic Dancing remix album. And, yep, it does include 'Tainted Love'. The new remixes on the Heat double CD feature danceable retoolings from the likes of Richard X, Mark Moore and Readers Wifes, but top billing goes to the Memory Band, who reimagine 'Youth' as a chilly, autumnal folk lament.
