I LOVE IT. I saw Abba in concert 3rd March, 1977 in Sydney on THAT rainy night. Just love it. Brings back SO many wonderful memories. Keep putting footage, ANY recordings of Abba's 77 tour or anything. The effort they ALWAYS put in. They are all amazing, brilliant people. Love you Abba.
The bathing suit and blond hair wig thingy was the only time that Frida and Aggie did the "twin thing" although they did the multiple persona thing in "one of us is lying" as they were also singers under other labels...rite?
ABBA never released Get On the Carousel. I don't even think there's a demo of it available. They performed it live as part of a mini-musical consisting of four songs. I think it's great. It's in ABBA the Movie, so you can see the clip here on YT. The guys felt it wasn't strong enough to release and they wanted to use part of it for Hole in Your Soul, so that's why you recognize that part. It's when the girls sing "You paint your world and use all colors..." The part works great in both.
Complete? Incomplete? Who cares? This is an amazing piece of ABBA history, something that most of us wouldn't have had the opportunity of hearing had it not been posted. It's ABBA live and raw and it's a rarity. That's all that matters.

I bought "The Album" a few years ago. According to that, passages of "Get On The Carousel" were used in "Hole In Your Soul".

This version is from Hamburg 1977 100%,because ABBA not be in Munich in 1977....It's a big mistake,bud ABBA NEVER be in Munich in 77.
