Spandau Ballet – Parade (LP, 1984, Chrysalis FV 41473, Stereo, Pitman Pressing, Sterling / Greg Calbi Cut)

Why This Record Matters
Parade was Spandau Ballet’s fourth studio album, following the international breakthrough of True and continuing the band’s polished blend of synth-pop, soul, and New Romantic pop. The album produced several singles, including “Only When You Leave,” “Highly Strung,” “I'll Fly For You,” and “Round And Round.” Recorded and mixed in Munich with producers Tony Swain and Steve Jolley, the album captures the band during its mid-1980s commercial peak.
