Red is the second album from the British pop duo The Communards. The Stephen Hague produced album was released in 1987 on London Records in the UK and MCA in the US. It reached number 4 in the UK and 93 in the US and was certified platinum in the UK. Red features the hits „Never Can Say Goodbye“, „Tomorrow“, „There’s More To Love Than Boy Meets Girl“ and „For a Friend“. Opinions vary as to where this album stands next to its predecessor, Communards. Andy Kellman of Allmusic feels it „tops their respectable debut in nearly every aspect“ and that the singles „Tomorrow“ and „There’s More to Love Than Boy Meets Girl“ are „stronger than anything on the debut“. On the other hand, Kate Walter of Spin says it is „weaker than [their] sizzling debut album“. Balancing these opinions is Mark Hooper of The Rough Guide to Rock who writes that the album is „every bit as accomplished as its predecessor“. Kellman’s review praises the production work of Stephen Hague and calls the album „a defining Euro-dance record of the latter half of the ’80s“. Walter credits Cole’s „rickety–tickety synthesizers“ and „tingly keyboards“ along with Somerville’s „squeals“ and „whoops“ as strengths of the album but bemoans the cohesiveness of the album’s side two.
