Thank you djrichiep one of my favorite ABC song
the mix by Hammond is great
you’re welcome, enjoy
always love the Lush sounds built upon the dance beat of ABC…This single could’ve been bigger.
actually, my interest in this 12″ was the live tracks on the b-side, the mix on the a-side is OK, too
Woo thanks for this one. Brings back loads of memories. Do you also have “How To Be A Millionaire/Zillionaire”?
Regards from Italy
you’re welcome, glad you like it, this is the only ABC 12″ in my collection at this time
ABC is the best. This is one of their better singles imo. The live tracks are welcome too. Thanks!
