It was quite hard to choose an 808 State album for the understated classics series for two reasons. The first is that I was introduced to 808 State quite late through a friend's sister's cassette copy of The Shamen's En-Tact (the original version recorded from vinyl that had a thirteen minute version of "Evil Is Eden") that also had -- to fill out the C90 -- the full length sweary version of "What Time Is Love?" by The KLF and four tracks: "Cubik", "Pacific", "Olympic" (I think...), and "In Yer Face".
