This release found ABC fully embracing dance/house/ electronica music - and you'll be hard pressed to hear any guitar whatsoever. I love all that ABC does, and while this release did not do well, it still holds up as a great release.
Just wanted to point out that the original 1989 CD release had a total of 11 tracks including 3 bonus tracks:
One Better World (Pickering-Park mix)
The Greatest Love of All (Kraushaar mix)
Never More Than Now (Kraushaar mix)
THe Reissued release has 13 tracks including 5 bonus tracks with only one of the bonus tracks the same as the original release:
One Better World (Pickering-Park mix)
One Better World (Percapella mix)
The Real Thing (Frankie Knuckles mix)
The Greatest Love of All (May Day mix)
Paper Thin (1986 demo)
When you hear ABC it is more than remembering the good years from a certain generation. You can hear quality as you are not used in these days. All I can ask is for more. Where is Martin Fry and ABC now? Can anyone answer me?
We just can't be away from more of that stuff. This is not just one of the best ABC albuns, but also one that shows what we don`t have anymore on the radio. It is easy to write in magazines about new bands, but not to hear things like this, that only heart can tell you what is about.
I really hope you can hear this album and have the same sense that finally happyness can be a song, ou an album.
"Where Is The Heaven" rocks the house!!! Great techno feel to it! The drumbeat is so infectious you cannot keep your feet still!
