"Heart of Stone" sits on The Innocents, the third album from English synth-pop duo Erasure, which Mute put out in Britain in April 1988. Stephen Hague produced it, Bob Kraushaar engineered, and the Kick Horns were called in to lay a coat of brass over the track.
The album around it is the one that turned Vince Clarke and Andy Bell into superstars at home and opened the door for them in America. It was the first in a run of British number-one albums for the pair and remains their biggest seller.
