Alf is the debut solo studio album of singer/songwriter Alison Moyet, her first since leaving 80s electro-pop band Yazoo/Yaz. The album, which took its title from the singer's nickname, went to #1 on the UK album charts and includes three hit singles; "Love Resurrection", "Invisible" and "All Cried Out".
The summer of 1985 saw the release of the non-album single "That Ole Devil Called Love", originally performed by Billie Holiday in the 1940s, in some European territories followed by a remixed version of "For You Only".
