ABC - The Lexicon Of Love flac album

The Lexicon of Love is the debut studio album by English pop band ABC. It was released in June 1982 by Neutron Records in the United Kingdom, by Mercury Records in the United States and Japan, and by Vertigo Records in Canada and Europe. The album entered the UK Albums Chart at number one and has been certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

In April 2009, ABC performed The Lexicon of Love album live at the Royal Albert Hall, accompanied by the BBC Concert Orchestra. Anne Dudley of Art of Noise, who arranged and played keyboards on the original record, conducted the performance. In January 2016, Fry said the new ABC album would be entitled The Lexicon of a Lost Ideal and released in the UK in May 2016. Featuring tracks penned by Fry, with contributions by Rob Fusari, Marcus Vere, Matt Rowe and Anne Dudley, the album features orchestration arranged by Anne Dudley, who worked in a similar capacity on The Lexicon of Love. In April 2016, the release of the new album, now entitled The Lexicon of Love II, was announced with lead single "Viva Love".

Gorgeously produced, the Lexicon of Love LP remains a timeless classic well into the 21st century Frye still out front and, again, joined by the hugely talented Anne Dudley as they attempt to perpetuate the New Romantic success lavished upon the initial release. As a fan, I, of course, love this LOLII iteration. This "sequel" is a pleasant surprise. A real solid album through and through, with a return to the trademark lush ABC from The Lexicon of Love (I) - but modernized. Martin's voice sounds great. 3 people found this helpful.
