Wild! (Erasure album)

Although the album did not generate any entries on the Billboard Hot 100, Wild! is highly regarded amongst Erasure's fanbase as one of their best albums, containing now-classic singles like "Drama!", "Blue Savannah" and "Star". In the US, several songs gained exposure on college radio and three songs charted on Billboard's Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart. "You Surround Me" was not released as a single in the United States.

During production, singer Andy Bell recorded with producer Gareth Jones, while Vince Clarke handled synths and programming with producer Mark Saunders at Vince's home studio—both in London.

In the UK, Wild! continued Erasure's mainstream success: it became their second consecutive number one album and its four singles all hit the UK Top 20. The album also charted well in Germany, where it hit number sixteen.

It was while promoting the Wild! album that Erasure launched the first of their many elaborately staged concert tours - this one featuring gigantic sets and props and several costume changes for band members Vince Clarke and Andy Bell, as well as several back-up singers and dancers. Over 100 dates were played, culminating in their biggest headlining show at the Milton Keynes Bowl in front of 60,000 fans.

Subsequent to their acquisition of Erasure's back catalogue, and in anticipation of the band's 30th anniversary, BMG commissioned reissues of all previously released UK editions of Erasure albums up to and including 2007's Light at the End of the World. All titles were pressed and distributed by Play It Again Sam on 180-gram vinyl and shrinkwrapped with a custom anniversary sticker.

A two-disc version of the album was released by BMG in the UK and Europe on March 29, 2019 to commemorate the original 1989 release. It features the remastered album on disc one and a selection of rarities, B-sides, live tracks, and new remixes on disc two.[2]
