If You Leave was written for the John Hughes film Pretty In Pink (1986) and was written, recorded and mixed in 3 days in Los Angles.

88 Seconds In Greensboro is taken from the 1985 album Crush.

Locomotion was originally featured on the 1984 album Junk Culture.

 

The recording of If You Leave featured a borrowed Fairlight keyboard as there was a delay in shipping over the band's own instrument.
