Personnel: Alison Moyet (vocals); Steve Jolley (guitar, background vocals); Tony Swain (keyboards); Tim Goldsmith (drums). Recorded at Odyssey Studios, London, England. Following the skeletal, occasionally experimental synth pop of Yaz, the bold, brassy production of Alison Moyet's 1985 solo debut, ALF, came as a surprise to many. Sounding like a mid-'80s updating of vintage Dusty Springfield, ALF (Moyet's punk-era nickname) features the powerhouse ballad "All Cried Out," the sexy raveup "Love Resurrection," and Moyet's outstanding debut solo single, the Lamont Dozier-penned "Invisible," one of the finest pop-soul singles of its era.
