Orchestral Manœuvres In The Dark - Souvenir (box set) (listened to this on Spotify - the 90s singles actually sound pretty good now and there are some real gems among the previously unreleased tracks, but the mastering is terrible on the BBC Mermaid Theatre concert - flat mono sound when the original broadcast was in stereo. I checked my 2011 download from the iPlayer and it sounded much better. Someone screwed things up there).
Pet Shop Boys - Alternative
Pet Shop Boys - Format
of Arrowe Hill - 1914-1918
The Kinks/Ray Davies - Arthur (BBC Radio 4 Drama) (this was very effective when the actors sang along to the original Kinks backing tracks, a device which should have been used more. Not so sure about Ray's newly rendered doo-wop versions, however).
