Almond's strength was never his personality -- his voice tends to waver around the notes instead of hitting them -- it was the atmosphere he created with the synths and drum machines.

Torment and Toreros (1983), Marc and the Mambas' second album, explored this path in more detail than Untitled, only to an orchestral background.

Marc Almond is one of my favorite singers but I'm not that crazy about his songwriting.
For all others who have heard Torment and Toreros, from his Mamba days or Absinthe- the French album released around 1994, this CD is a gold mine of covers.
Two tracks: If You Go Away, and The Bulls are remakes of earlier versions he sang on Marc and Mambas "Untitled" and Marc and Mambas "Torment and Toreros".

 TrouserPress.com :: Marc Almond
Made While Soft Cell was still a going concern, Almond assembled various associates to be the Mambas on his first two solo albums.
With regard to the latter, the album omits anything from Vermin in Ermine, Stories of Johnny and Mother Fist (not to mention his two prior Marc and the Mambas albums), focusing instead on more accessible material.
In what has to be seen as a belated admission of their original inadequacy, Almond offered to lay down new vocals for three Soft Cell songs he felt ready to improve upon: "Memorabilia," "Say Hello, Wave Goodbye" and (of course) "Tainted Love," which promptly shot back into the British Top 10.

 S/D Marc Almond
Because I've just been heard a Marc and the Mambas track and was surprised how much I enjoyed it and after Soft Cell I sort of stopped listening to his output...so what else did I miss?
I'd recommend 'Stories Of Johnny' as a good place to start, along with the Marc & The Mambas 'untitled' album then maybe Mother Fist and Vermine In Ermine.
Funnily enough I looked back through my vinyl and found I did have a Marc Almond solo single I had forgotten about - a 12" of Jacky produced by Trevor Horn of all people and dynamite disco trance rock-out it is too.

It isn't so much length as it is subject matter, though informed by his consistent bitterness with the industry as experienced via the soon-to-implode Soft Cell, the sheer self-loathing and unrestrained anger have never been paralleled by any of his other releases.
