Abacab: Yea or Nay?

It worked at the time of its release. In hindsight, not so much.

Dodo/Lurker is one of the best post Hackett songs they ever did IMO though.

The best way to respond to that line of thinking goes back to what Louie once said. Someone approached Satchmo about blowing some snazzy Jazz riff from the roaring 20s on his trumpet. (This incident happened either in the forgettable 40s or nifty 50s) Armstrong retorted in his hallmark rough sounding voice:"If it was good then, it's good now!"
Abacab was good then, and it's good now.
