the're some Casios on the DVD: 2 stacked in the "oh L'amour Video" 
– here's the pic of YOUR CZ (lower Key) ;-)
the upper Keyboard is a CZ-101 – (see Mod-Wheel & knobs@side)

and here 2 nice pics with Vince & Eric Radcliffe in the Studio with a
rack of 4 (!) CZ-101 – and here's the Story (outtake from Sound on Sound):

"Vince Clarke (left) of synth popsters Erasure in the mid-'80s with
his engineer Eric Radcliffe, his stack of Casio CZ101 Phase Distortion
synths, and his BBC Model B-based UMI Sequencer. Each of the CZ101's
four multitimbral parts was addressable monophonically on a different
MIDI channel of the sequencer, which was highly novel at the time. But
Vince still needed several CZs to achieve the polyphony he wanted.
Within a few years he was getting around this problem by writing
records composed entirely of monophonic lines with no chords at all!"

>   Hey, agreed.  The colours of the CZ-1 are awesome, when I had the
CZ3000, I would of loved to been able to ''buy'' the CZ-1, when I saw
it in that shop window in London.

its simply sreams: "POP!" and "80ies!"

Pure Synths'' : - )

I agree...

2005, is the Dave Smith Poly-Evolver keyboard, even this is software,
really..shame.

the Envolver? pure analog! Checked some samples: they bored me...
poly-poly-ultra-saws; nothing for me. I like it clean.

yes, the intro is "CZed". I had this sound on my CZ-1 years ago – it
matched 100%; I had a backup on Disk on a Korg DF-1 data filer (quick
and easy: dump, save to disk, ready), but the DF-1 is dead now;
and I forgot where the Disk is.

you can send me a tape too ;-)

good... perfect setup for MIDI only.
