40th anniversary set of singles from 1981’s Architecture and Morality by electronic pioneers Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. Includes three international hits, “Souvenir,” “Joan of Arc” and “Maid of Orleans (The Waltz Joan of Arc)” as well as unreleased demos, studio sessions and live performances of tracks from the album on a trio of 45rpm colored vinyl LPs. Architecture And Morality reached No. 3 in the UK charts and No. 1 in Belgium and Holland. “We wrote the whole thing in the Manor Studio in three days,” notes the band. “We decided to call it Architecture And Morality and then proceeded to throw onto tape everything ‘architectural’ and ‘moral’ that we could think of. Over the three days we gradually added and subtracted all manner of sounds until we had made something from all the noises.”
