About this album
The band at this point had yet to achieve any degree of commercial success. For this album, they worked with a new producer, Richard Mainwaring, who the next year would produce “Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark’s” platinum selling “Architecture & Morality”. However, “Travelogue” did not sell well, reaching #16 on the UK album chart in May 1980 and, tired of commercial disappointment, it precipitated the departure of founding band members Martyn Ware and Ian Craig Marsh.
The album included a cover of an advertising jingle for “Gordon’s Gin”, written by Jeff Wayne (famous for his “War of the Worlds” album).
Virgin Records remastered and re-issued “Travelogue” on CD in 1988, with an expanded track listing which included the “Holiday ‘80” EP, the disco single “
I Don’t Depend on You” (originally released under the moniker “The Men”), and the single “Boys And Girls”, which had been produced by Oakey and Wright after the line-up split.

Technolen Travelogue - Their best album ever, I would like to describe it as a "Synth pop manifest" or "Absolut futuristic classic" .... Plenty of synth lines from Roland System 100 - great modular system (and very expensive)!
