ABC "Traffic" 2008
Traffic is the album of original material released by English band ABC in eleven years. The album's songs were written by lead singer Martin Fry while he toured the United States in 2006. Critics have described the album as the most "satisfying ABC album since the mid-"80s by far".
Drummer David Palmer, who left the band in 1982 after recording The Lexicon of Love, returned to record this album.
Gary Langan returned to mix the album after working as sound engineer on The Lexicon of Love and producing Beauty Stab. Allmusic described Traffic as "the album that ABC fans were probably hoping for in 1985" and considered that Fry's "lyrical mastery was back in place" in the album's songs which showed "an elegant mix of soul and style".
Хотя музыка этого коллектива не совсем наша, но тем не менее следует отметить ее оригинальность и значительное отличие от современной попсы. Может быть мы были несправедливы, огульно охаивая музыку 80-х? Упадка духа все же не было? Скорее всего имел место творческий застой.
