| | Description: | The 1997 return of the English New Wave band fronted by Martin Fry was released as an homage to the singers heroes David Bowie, Roxy Music and the Sex Pistols. This 2 CD reissue has been remastered and features a bonus CD of B-sides, acoustic and live tracks.This CD-R version was sold directly on Cherry Red's website (under false pretenses as a standard glass mastered CD) and by other online retailers in 2020.
There is no matrix code, mastering code, etc. (See picture of CD-R surface.)
The booklet lists tracks 1-3 and 1-5 as being Radio Edits but standard album versions are included. Several of the printed track durations are also incorrect."Skyscraping (Expanded 2CD Edition)" by Abc is a deluxe reissue of the band's sophisticated studio album, presented here in an expanded 2-CD format that will appeal to both long-time fans and discerning pop listeners discovering the record for the first time. This edition typically brings together the original album plus a generous selection of bonus material such as single edits, remixes, and rare or hard-to-find tracks from the same creative period (exact track details may vary by pressing). The result is a deep, immersive listening experience that showcases the band's finely crafted songwriting, stylish arrangements and polished production across an extended running time. The expanded configuration makes this CD set ideal for collectors who value archival presentations and context around a key album in a band's catalogue.
Abc are known for their elegant, highly melodic approach to pop, blending sophisticated songwriting with a strong sense of style and memorable hooks. Across their career, they have released a series of well-regarded albums and singles that achieved commercial and critical recognition, particularly within the spheres of pop, new wave and refined, radio-friendly songwriting. Their music is characterized by expressive vocals, carefully layered instrumentation and a polished, often cinematic sound, qualities that are strongly reflected in the material gathered on "Skyscraping (Expanded 2CD Edition)". Fans of articulate lyrics and crafted pop structures will find plenty to appreciate in this collection.
The 2-CD configuration underscores the archival care behind this release. The first disc allows you to experience the core album in cohesive form, while the second disc typically adds depth through associated tracks from the same era, offering alternative perspectives on the songs, different mixes that highlight new details in the arrangements, and complementary material that enriches the understanding of the album's place within Abc's body of work. Packaged in the classic CD format, this edition is designed for listeners who value physical media, with space for detailed liner notes, credits, and, depending on the specific pressing, possibly photos or period-accurate artwork that contextualize the album's original release.
Cherry Red, the label behind this edition, is widely recognized as a long-established independent company with a strong focus on catalogue, reissues and archival projects. Over the years, Cherry Red has built a reputation for carefully curated editions that respect the original recordings while adding value through expanded track lists, thoughtful packaging and, where available, informative sleeve notes. Their catalogue spans many styles - from pop and rock to more niche genres - and they are particularly appreciated by collectors for keeping important titles in circulation with well-produced CD editions. With "Skyscraping (Expanded 2CD Edition)", Cherry Red continue this approach by presenting a considered, expanded version of the album that aims to serve both dedicated fans and newcomers looking for a definitive CD edition. | | | No. of tracks: |
