The Cure's personnel also began shifting by the end of 1979, when Michael Dempsey left to be replaced by Simon Gallup, and Matthieu Hartley was added to play keyboards.
The Cure's second album, "17 Seconds," expanded The Cure's immersion in studio experimentation and locked into a darker seam of songwriting that produced the classic single "A Forest"; a cinematic foray into noir imagery that gained the band their first UK hit single and a top of the pops appearance.
Following a lengthy Australia-Asian tour, Matthieu Hartley left and the Cure were a three piece once more.

 The Cure 1981
Five days before the Cure starts its tour which also will be in Holland, Matthieu Hartley, the keyboard-player leaves the band.
However, Matthieu was always frustrated on stage because he thought the role of the keyboard which we had in mind was too little.
After a backbreaking tour as a first part of the programme of Siouxsie and the Banshees, in which Robert also substitutes the run-away Banshees-guitarist John McKay, bassist Michael Dempsey is placed aside.

Dempsey had to make place for Simon Gallup and Matthieu Hartley (keyboards) joined the group to make complete the new Cure-sound.
The single "A Forest" (a track from "Seventeen Seconds) hits the charts in Holland and Belgium and from then on The Cure could be considered as a "top"-group.
"Faith" (recorded without Hartley) is an album that took over the style of "Seventeen Seconds" and is therefore considered as less interesting.

 Seventeen Seconds   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The Cure: Robert Smith (vocals, guitar, violin); Matthieu Hartley (keyboards); Simon Gallup (bass guitar); Laurence Tolhurst (drums).
Somewhat reminiscent of bands like Siouxsie and the Banshees (a group Smith played with for a few albums), SEVENTEEN SECONDS is not an album for the faint at heart.
The addition of perennial favorite Simon Gallup on bass and the short-lived but effective Mathleu Hartley on keyboards expanded the Cure's previously sparse sound, adding layers of texture that complemented Smith's longer, less accessible songs.

The sound on this reissue is gorgeously clean.
At this point in their history, the revolving Cure line-up was down to a core of three: Smith on vocals and lead, Simon Gallup on bass, and Laurence Tolhurst on drums, with keyboardist Matthieu Hartley abruptly leaving days before the recording session started.
Slimmed down to the elemental basics, the band's playing is honed tight, with Gallup's big bass sound up front and Smith's guitars washing over the mix.

It's a very nice cd to have particularly if you are a fan of both bands, which I am.
Another interesting thing about it, is that Matthieu Hartley plays keyboards on one or two tracks too.
I have seen this cd in record shops in the UK and Ireland and it's available from amazon."
