Devotion – A Tribute To Depeche Mode (2003)

Release year: 2003
Release version: Physical release
Label: Angelstar
Type: Compilation

Area 51 are listed on the sleeve with ‘A Question Of Lust’, but it’s really ‘A Question Of Time’… by the way a very cool EBM-like cover version, in the style of the Berlin band ‘And One’. Don’t mix up with the same titled tribute “Devotion – A Tribute To Depeche Mode” from 2005!

Although I already owned all regular releases, I started "seriously" collecting Depeche Mode's releases from all over the world in the late 80s. But when the internet and espacially eBay came up, I wanted to specialise my collection, because with eBay it was not a question of "how to find a rarity?" anymore, but just a question of "who pays the most?". That was the start of my collection of Depeche Mode cover versions.

I really like it when artists create a completely new mood in a cover version. For me, the best covers are very often just unknown tracks on an artist's album, while many tribute compilations are just "sound-a-likes" without own creativity.
