Album By Album: ABBA

@ClassicPopMag has just published their #ABBA album by album review from "Ring Ring" to "The Visitors".

As expected it's a great read - Classic Pop Magazine always takes ABBA's musical output seriously.

CD "Icon" by @ABBA is not just another compilation CD...

It's the first (and last?) time a re-released #ABBA compilation mentions it is indeed a re-release (see back sleeve).

The original CD release is "The Best Of ABBA - 20th Century Masters"

[Alex Legsy @ALegsy]

@MeThe80s For CD 1 it's ABBA - The Winner Takes It All
For CD 2 it's Lipps, Inc. - Funkytown, just love the cowbells

@carlmagnuspalm Just wondering whether the book will contain some/all Polar Press Releases as part of the Promotion part?

[Alex Legsy @ALegsy]

Gemini singing "Den Som Sa Det Var Det" which includes the words "Mio Min Mio" as well as a few milliseconds of that tune (end of video).

Are there other Björn & Benny compositions where they deliberately include one of their other songs?

#Gemini #KarinGlenmark #AndersGlenmark

[Alex Legsy @ALegsy]

Other tracks are live tracks:
"Att Älska I Vårens Tid [Föratsnatt]", "Ole Lukköje", "Vad Gör Det Att Vi Skiljs För I Afton" and "Min Soldat"; all taken from TV show "När Stenkaken Slog".

Live track "Barnen Sover" is taken from Radio show "Våra Favoriter".

#Frida #ABBA

[Alex Legsy @ALegsy]

2CD set "#Frida 1967-1972" was released in 1997 and contains 38 tracks.

Streaming/download sites only seem to have 31 tracks so you're missing "En Kväll Om Sommarn {Changes}" and "Vi Vet Allt, Men Nästan Inget" which both are duets with #LarsBerghagen
