3.0 out of 5 stars Awesome title track!, May 2, 2000
The title track from this CD was one of the best, most catchy pop songs from 1982. And the version on this CD is a little bit longer than the version that got released as a single. But the rest of the album is pretty bland. There's nothing on here that's awful or horrible or anything like that. But compared to the title track, the rest of the disc is a big disappointment.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Revisit Of A Favorite Band!, December 5, 2003
In 1982 it had been a while since Steve Miller Band had a hit of any note and he got one in the tital cut of this album-and
it WAS a big one!The opener "Keep Me Wondering Why" is a slightly
rockier varrition on the tital track's sound while "Give It Up"
is a bouncy,carnivalesqe little rocker tossed off for good measure.Beach Boys harmonies abound on "Something Special"
while casually rocking pop number like "Never Say No" and "Cool Magic" make "Abracadabra" classic Steve Miller in the same potent mix as "Fly Like An Eagle","The Joker" and his other classic albums!

1.0 out of 5 stars One Track Wonder, April 26, 2008
By Two Tone Antoine (Brigg, North Lincs, UK) - See all my reviews
There is little to commend this CD except the title track, which I happen to like very much. Others have been spectacularly dismissive, which is a shame.

The rest of the album is either dull or mediocre.
