Alf is the debut studio album of British singer-songwriter Alison Moyet, released in 1984. The album launched Moyet's solo career following the disbanding of synthpop duo Yazoo (also known as Yaz). The album reached No. 1 in the UK and features the singles "Love Resurrection", "All Cried Out", "Invisible" and "For You Only".
"Lead single 'Love Resurrection' firmly saw the solo career of Alison take off and was the first of three hit singles which also included 'All Cried Out' and 'Invisible'. The singles were perfect chart fodder and were great pop songs of the time. It was as though she had been with us for an eternity and she was instantly recognised as the incredible voice that she is... 'Twisting The Knife' sees a high-paced funky guitar coupled with a fine performance in a very American sounding track and album closer 'Where Hides Sleep' is a gentler sparse track with multi layered vocals creating a haunting effect beautifully highlighting her vocal prowess. Unsurprisingly, Alf reached number 1 in the UK and quite rightly so. It was near perfect pop for the perfect pop generation of the 80s, and served as a timely reminder that true talent would always shine through." - Paul Scott-Bates, Louder Than War
