80s soul.
One of my favourite albums when I was little, probably because it's so peaceful and reassuring. Even when addressing the subject of break-ups, Abbott's arrangements sound merry. What makes it even better is that, aside from being an accomplished musician with the voice of a eunuch (but beautiful and manly!), he wrote and produced everything, a rare thing in soul. "Rhyme and reason;" "Magic" and "I got the feelin'" are the album's most original pieces.
