"Cupid & Psyche '85", published in the summer of 1985, was both a pop masterpiece and a milestone in music production. Terrifyingly complex technology, embarrassingly expensive studio time and months of intensive work resulted in a brilliant, flawless sound, which singer Green Gartside describes today as "pyrotechnics of pointillist syncopation".Under the direction of legendary producer Arif Mardin and with some of New York's best studio musicians, Cupid & Psyche 85 Scrittis brought its distinct pop sensitivity to new, glittering heights. It produced five singles, all of them hits on one side or the other of the Atlantic: Wood Beez, The Word Girl, Absolute, Perfect Way and Hypnotize.
