Alphabet City : ABC. ABC Format: Audio Cassette. Perhaps capturing the duo at their finest moment of American-influced polished pop perfection, ABC's fourth studio album Alphabet City doesn't disappoint when it comes to smooth, 1980s pop. Martin Fry's vocals never disappoint and Mark White's slick guitar style adds to a very glossy atmosphere.
