    Yazoo was formed in late 1981 by Vince Clarke and Alison Moyet in Basildon, Essex, England. Clarke was previously the main songwriter for Depeche Mode, who also came from Basildon and who at that point had recorded one album and three singles for Mute Records, including the hits "New Life" and "Just Can"t Get Enough". The name "Yazoo", according to Moyet, came from the labels of old blues albums: Yazoo Records. Yazoo was signed to Mute Records in the United Kingdom and to Sire Records in the United States. Yazoo"s initial foray into the US was disastrous when they received a £3.5 million lawsuit threat over the band"s name. Yazoo renamed to Yaz for the US market because the name was already in use by a small American rock band.
