Other top 40 singles featured here include the Sheer Chic Mix of 'The Night You Murdered Love', 'One Better World' and 'SOS'. Often championed as the purveyors of perfect pop, ABC were formed in late 1980 by vocalist/songwriter Martin Fry and guitarist Mark White, with saxophonist Steve Singleton, drummer David Robinson and bassist Mark Lickley completing the original five piece line up. With a mission to re-invent disco music and make pop more ridiculous and less pompous the band were snapped up by Phonogram Records and less than a year later found themselves at No. 19 in the UK charts with their debut 45 Tears Are Not Enough (the demo version of which is included here) which highlighted Fry's dramatic vocal style to the full. Disc 2 contains a selection of the band's finest 12" mixes. The tracks "Vanity Kills - US Remix" and "The ABC Megamix" appear on CD for the very first time. Universal. 2005.
