Body and Soul is the tenth studio album by English electronic band Cabaret Voltaire, released in March 1991 by Belgium-based label Les Disques du Crépuscule.[1]
Music historian Colin Larkin wrote that the album was "well-received" and "consolidated Cabaret Voltaire's pivotal position on the UK's dance scene".[2] Martin Aston in Q Magazine called the album "nothing radical but by their own standards, a rewarding leap sideways." A positive review by Music from the Empty Quarter noted the dichotomy engendered in the album, stating that "[A]nyone expecting a return of the Cabs harder sounds... can forget it" but that "[T]he familiar unorthodox sounds lie in the undercurrents, ensuring that it's never an easy movement."[3]
All tracks are composed, arranged and produced by Richard H. Kirk and Stephen Mallinder at Western Works, Sheffield, England.
The release features cover art by Jerome B-Patou.
This album was the last to feature Stephen Mallinder's lead vocals.
