The fourth and final installment of Alan Wilder - Collected is now up at the Recoil Blog where you can get a sneak peek at some of the 400+ items soon to be up for sale from The Alan Wilder/Depeche Mode Collection - a historic memorabilia, equipment and vinyl auction which is set to be held Sept. 2 & 3 at the Zion Arts Centre in Manchester.
Alan Wilder - Collected was filmed at Wilder's Sussex home where director Martin Vladar discovered Wilder had kept "memorabilia spanning 35 years of a career spent in music, most notably during the 80s and 90s covering the musician’s stint with one of the most famous & successful bands of all time, Depeche Mode."
A must see for any DM fan, and the highlight of Collected for us here at Waist High, comes in part four when Alan gets out his old EMAX Sampler after 24 years and begins getting re-acquainted with it and plays, among other things, the riff from "Black Celebration," and the beginning of "Pipeline." In a word - fuckingawesome.
