Essential ABC: - ABC [CD]

It's the first 10 years, between 1981 and 1990 of the band's history which this 3CD set celebrates and it features 10 hit singles together with key tracks from their 6 studio albums from the same period, 5 of which graced the UK album chart top 30. So prepare for a listening experience that takes you from the instantly memorable 'Poison Arrow', to the perfect pop of 'The Look of Love' (UK No.4) and the fairy tale 'All of My Heart' to the infectious blue-eyed soul of 1987's 'When Smokey Sings', the 80s electro of 'How To Be A Millionaire', the jazz funk of 'Tears Are Not Enough' and the uplifting house sounds of 'One Better World'. More than just a best of, the Essential ABC casts the spotlight on the first decade of one of the UK's most enduring bands.
