ABACAB

Let's face it, Anything had to be better than "Duke". Would Collins and Co actually listen to the Critics or simply note the increasing sales. Abacab proved the latter to be the case. With Duke outselling their previous recordings it must have become clear that the effort involved in producing true works of musical art ( Wind and Wuthering, Trick of the tale etc) was unneccessary. Actually Abacab isnt quite as dire as Duke - Me and Sarah Jane is a nice track ( a Banks composition of course ) and Keep it dark showed an interesting direction that they could have taken had they bothered. The rest is simply awful.
