As part of their 30th anniversary celebrations Vince Clarke and Andy Bell talk about the important ‘first times’ that they have shared over the course of their career…

In this first extract from the interview they talk about the first time they met, and the first song they recorded together.

The music used is Andy’s original audition tape of ‘Who Needs Love (Like That)’ followed by the single version of the same song.

With apologies for the erratic sound quality!
