In 1984, Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s debut single was dominating the charts, while simultaneously banned from the airwaves by the BBC. The song was a synth-pop masterpiece, and took its time to get there.  Producer Trevor Horn worked through several versions of the song and a changing lineup of musicians to get the desired sound for the “Relax” – a song which would be used to launch his new record label, ZTT, to the public.  Despite a slow start and censorship by the BBC, “Relax” became one of the decade’s most important and superbly produced records.
