"Four Pieces [Three Pieces] is by no means exhaustive and there may be some mixes and remixes that fans are aggrieved at not being included but, almost everything is here is one shape or another. Yazoo were an enigma, a short career perhaps but an act that to this day continue to be a source of influence, just ask James Murphy of LCD Soundsystem or Anohni of Antony And The Johnsons and they will undoubtedly testify.Yazoo are an indispensable part of pop history and Four Pieces [Three Pieces] testifies the fact with a fitting tribute to a quite unique act".

"De andre medlemmer af Depeche Mode brød sig ikke om den sang, han havde skrevet til bandets andet album. Siden fik Vince Clarke succes med nummeret i sin nye duo ... Sammen med sangerinden Alison Moyet udgav han to album under navnet Yazoo, og de er netop genudgivet i en eksklusiv boks sammen med masser af ekstramateriale ... Med Yazoo skabte Vince Clarke iørefaldende pop ... Det specielle ved Yazoo var kombinationen af hans syntetiske synth-lyd og Alison Moyets mørke, melankolske røst, og man kan ærgre sig over, at de kun fik indspillet to album sammen ... Yazoo var allerbedst på debutalbummet 'Upstairs at Eric's' (1982) (...) men opfølgeren 'You And Me Both' (1983) fungerer også - dengang og i dag".
