Vince Clark over Alan Wilder???? Surely, you have not heard Recoil or hold Erasure over DM's Black celebration and MFTM.

But he only did one album for DM. And is was lame. Alan Wilder did 6 albums for DM (7 if you count the new tracks on Catching up with DM). And his work formed their sound.

Ok, OK, but my list wasn't necessarily in order.

And consider that Mira Aroyo's inclusion is due to her hotness factor. :p

He did? I thought he used one keyboard for the bassline and the other for normal keyboard playing. :scratch: Time to wikipedia this.
