Yes, back in 1981 the fresh faced 20-somethings released their debut single, “Tears Are Not Enough” (which broke the top twenty), they became 80’s icons, along with the likes of Spandau Ballet and Duran Duran, ABC remain one of the most recognisable sounds of the new era as pop music developed and utilised the most modern and advanced equipment available.ABC achieved ten UK and five US top 40 hit singles between 1981 and 1990, and their 1982 debut studio album, "The Lexicon of Love", was a UK number one. Their early-1980s success in the US saw them associated with the Second British Invasion.“Poison Arrow”, made their name globally in early 1982 when it went to No.25 Stateside and produced a top ten hit internationally including a No.6 placing at home. With their first album ready for release, the third single would deliver a number one hit and a No.18 chart position in America, whilst reaching No.4 in the UK. “The Look Of Love”, arguably their signature tune, was presented to a UK audience on Top Of The Pops with Fry wearing an all gold suit! Very new romantic.This compilation brings all the hits and best between 1982-1989. All songs were remastered with the fantasic "Cedar" mastering system for added listening enjoyment.
