Abba Just Like That ( Sax Version 1982 ) ( Widescreen )

[AdamDawson3]

Just Like That (Saxophone Version) is rumoured to be appearing on the 2012 The Visitor's Deluxe Edition as Just Like That will be 30 years old in 2012.

[TommyCityUSA]

Heard this will be remastered and released in Feb or early March 2010 on a remastered More ABBA Gold to come out when ABBA is officially abducted to the rock and roll hall of fame in March, does anyone know if this rumor true?

[pinheadq41]

Thanks ji61m for the info on this song. I think it's great and wish it was released so we fans could have a "new" ABBA song. Maybe for their induction in to the RnR HoF?

At around 3:59 Agnetha doesn't look happy at all

[huviretki1]

The unofficial or less official ABBA recordings are what I like most.

E.g. "Sang Till Gorel" :))

[eladbendor]

imagine this recording released now...

with a bit fast rythm and bass...

or a dance mix it would reach the top 10 in the UK ...!

You are all in luck because in 2011 'Just Like That' is going on 'The Vistor's Deluxe Edition'.

[truthrulz]

Regardless of how it was released, I'm happy to have heard it. Too bad it was not officially released.

[kormoran78]

For us ABBA fans a very important song. What a pity ABBA never released officially this beautiful song.

thank you so much for taking the trouble to share all the details behind this track.

amazing abba!

[ji61m]

No trouble at all.....there's more to ABBA then most people even know and it's my pleasure to give people that info! Thanks for looking in.

As always, Peace....Jim~

[glamorgangirl]

It surfaced through being circulated to London theatrical people in 1983, along with other unfinished recordings, as possible melodies that could be used in CHESS. These people then duplicated shared them. These songs didn't surface through any theft from Bjorn's car.

[ji61m]

Well, believe what you want, but read this first!......" Somehow, bootleg versions of some of the as of yet unreleased demos began circulating among fans during the 1980s. It has long been rumoured that some cassettes were stolen from Björn's car, and this has recently been confirmed by Björn himself, via Carl Magnus Palm."

Any questions?.....

[woutch]

I know Magnus, and have helped him with his books, my name is credited on two of his most famous ones. But honestly, Just Like That and I Am the City particulary surfaced through London's theatre land. The theft from Bjorn's car happened nearly ten years later and the demos taken were not any discarded ABBA ones they were all Kristina ones.

Thanks for this Jim. I knew this song was one of the last gasps of ABBA but your extensive text was so very informative. It only shows me how much more

I need to learn about my favorite musicians of all time. I was especially impressed to know that Ravenscroft was the sax player as I have always adored Baker Street. Thanks once again foe enriching my ABBA fetish. Peace, Christian

[ji61m]

Thank you Christian. As the info stated...

Ravenscroft was in a very rare position here as ABBA rarely used musicians outside of their tight musical circles. There's so much info out there about all of their songs, but with this being a very rare tune ( that explains the low quality ) there's a ton of available info!

[SadLookinMoon]

thanks for the share Jim, I love this song...!! and I like the saxophone a lot.

good work on the slideshow as usual, I see you've used pics from around the time this song was recorded! Looks cool with the ABBA logo in the end too!:)

[ji61m]

Thanks Elin. Now I have every version of this song posted. I try to use pics from around the time the song was recorded in every video...it doesn't always work that way though.

[ji61m]

I'm sorry everyone if the soundtrack isn't the best, but it's the best one i've found!

[Izadeparis]

more than the musics your detailled information s

impressed me a lot ;o)

a Journalist'job !

tyvm

[ji61m]

Thank you Isabelle....This information would have been longer had YouTube let me put more on here!...I guess they have a limit!

Peace...Jim~

[Festfolket]

Would be great to se an official release of this great song - one of their best. Thanks for posting this great video.

[ji61m]

i feel the same way Johanna! I keep hearing they are planning a release soon...But I'll believe it when I see it!

Thank you for looking in!

Peace...Jim~

[jennyschofield]

Hey Jim, what a fantastic job you have made of this. That first picture , like jes941, took my breath away. (The last pic is always a stunner though). This has gone straight onto my Abba playlist. Cant wait for the next one.. just love it.. xx

[roydoncrossing]

Excellent Jim-can we look forward to 'Aggy Productions-the book' in due course? You are building up enough material!!

[ji61m]

Maybe down the road a ways Bill, I have way too much on my plate now as it is to start that chapter....but you never know!

Thanks Bill.

[frapistat]

Hey Jim, what a homework assignment you did here. I had read somewhere that Bjorn's car was broken into and a studio tape was stolen and that's how the bootleg versions became. True? Who know's. It could have been an intentional leak to test the waters. I think it's insane for them not to release this jewel officially. Your show is amazing as usual. Thanks for your work. Can you imagine checking out with an ace in your pocket?

[ji61m]

Thanks Rob...I've heard that same story and according to Bjorn ( after many years of not really revealing the truth ) said it did in fact happen. I've heard many rumours about this song being released, but until it is...I won't believe a thing! Dare I say...did you actually get this share?

[frapistat]

Jim, YT is so goofy. I sent a reply to your share question, but it did not post... grrrrr. Try it again. No, I did not get the share. I'm learning I just have to visit more often to see what wonderful things you're up to.

[ji61m]

I don't understand Rob....I guess I start sending certain one's individually! Thanks for enjoying!

[2Shaymcn]

Love those close ups Jim

Thanks for the rare long version of this one

Thanks for all the background info !!!

Very interesting

[ji61m]

Thanks Shay....it is indeed rare and of the 2 versions I have, it has to be the best quality of the two! Believe me...I could have went on forever with the info but I found YouTube does have a limit to what you can put in here!

[jes941]

OH my.....that opening picture just takes your breath away!!!! What a great song JIm I have never heard it before or if I did I did not pay attention, I like it, thanks for your ususal great job and the log you wrote to go with it

[ji61m]

Thank you Jim...I now " officially " have every version posted ( true versions, not recycled or looped or mixed ) of " Just Like That ". That includes the " Nanana Version " and the " Complete ( Long ) Version "

[cazziekins]

....and i love every version of course!...:0)

[ji61m]
