Abba : Does Your Mother Know (Live '79) HQ

[MadGriffith]

Great, great sound. Who is the guitarist playing the first mini-solo?

[Glidinatt]

@MadGriffith

First short solo is Mats Ronander and later major is Lasse Wellander.

[maxpowers518]

Thank you, Johnny English.

[DanishFashionGirl]

I love that amazing energy!!

[MrSylosis]

i would definitely have had a raging semi if i was that guitarist. wouldnt help matter when frida starts rubbing lol

[habudabuda]

[peaceloverer]

[joebester]

the guy has a nice ass and I'm straight!

[CanadaAuroraBorealis]

Lasse, Mats Ronander (second guitar) were such an integral part of the Abba experience, as well as all the band and backing singers.

[nskid]

@CanadaAuroraBorealis

Very true. I dropped a note of congratulations to Lasse Wellander after ABBA's induction last year in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. I mentioned I was disappointed that Benny Andersson had not given credit to ABBA's great backing musicians during his acceptance speech. But Lasse very graciously replied that it wasn't necessary: they knew how much Benny and Bjorn (and Frida and Agnetha) valued their contributions, and that was enough for them. Class act all the way.

[ObbsesiveTwilighter]

haha - 1:08-1:10

[miesermogelvogel]

Oh, you see, they really have got fun!

[TheDarkFrontier]

3:10

I want to be him :)

[calcorrfan]

They all look like they are having such fun. As for the part where Frida and Agnetha grab the guitarist's legs. Well, that's one of the sexiest parts of the whole concert. That and the few seconds when Agnetha stares directly into the camera. I think it is during Dancing Queen.

[Craighoal]

Even the stage is rocking....imagine having being in the audience!

[myownservant]

Great tune and infectious drumming

[AlwinLee1]

must add Lasse Wellander is the best guitarist in Sweden to know me, his wonderful guitar playing and musicality were well appreciated and he was on over 1,500 recordings by various famous artists

[AlwinLee1]

hey it's most amazing is that I saw ABBA live when they trained for the big tournament here in Sweden.

[2Shaymcn]

Thanks to all for the interesting comments !

[AlwinLee1]

@2Shaymcn

[AlwinLee1]

Lasse Wellander (guitarist) there are not many who had done it so well, not a note wrong

[2Shaymcn]

@AlwinLee1 Not easy to concentrate with 2 hot women hanging on to your legs either ! hehe

[EdilarinProducts]

@2Shaymcn and a dude

[jelaaaaii]

abba tiger

[beamerZ]

2:33 you hear ''take it nice and slow'' but Bjorn doesn't sing at that moment...???

[2Shaymcn]

@beamerZ Fixed in the mix ?

[GrahamSimons]

@beamerZ

Lipsinc

[ObbsesiveTwilighter]

@beamerZ im sure Benny Sang or its just obviously there singing and there microphones were turned off to make it look real :L and he forgot at that moment :L

[Netro85]

@beamerZ Maybe we heard the choral in background, not Bjorn.

[DanishFashionGirl]

@beamerZ Maybe it's Benny?

[pkfireflies]

Awesome

[Martin69AB]

Agnetha's what makes ABBA

What guys?sorry

[gemerique]

This is some of the catchiest rhythm (the initial 2-3 notes) ever put together.... perhaps in Heaven some day along with a great drummer, they'd bring it down.. and we'll have Heaven on Earth!

[PEPESONETO]

hey where can i download this dvd?

[SofiaAlskarOlaSalo]

did anyone notice this thing at : 01:33 - 01:44 Agnetha ran up to Benny to play with him on his piano!

[motley14u]

Very cool. thanks for posting. Is it me or does Benny look like Al Borland from "Tool Time"?

[hypomissy]

This is a great song, and a great video....but I'm not digging the lycra - especially on Bjorn!!

[minga920]

piosenka jest the best!

[faddy24]

Great energy but i never did find it appealing when Bjorn took the lead vocal. Gimme the ladies anytime.

[Villeneuve27]

I don't know how that guy could concentrate with them hanging on him

[songsungu]

I have loved this video since I first saw it on the concert cd. so much energy showing how good these guys were live. I believe the lucky guitarist is Rutgar Gunnersson from all of their rcordings

[AnconProducciones]

agnetha is betiaful, hermosa OMG...

[2Shaymcn]

Elephant tranquillizers Jim- the only way he could concentrate on playing !! hehe

[tmmvideo]

What amazes me, Shay, after all these years, i just can't watch a video like this great post, and sit still. I find myself staring intently at the screen, bouncing in my chair to the rhythm, and grinning like an idiot. As for the guitarist at 3:06, I'm pretty sure if that had happened to me, I wouldn't be worth very much the rest of the day. Thanks for making my day - again! —Tom

[2Shaymcn]

These performances are so full of life they are infectious Tom. If I was that guitarist , I would expolde !!

[DaVooz]

Agnetha, as always, acts her vocal contributions in a great manner.

[realmclennyd]

wow I missed these wonderful abba momments I wish MTV would bring back the abba concert that would be so cool to see them on the big screen once in a while

[2Shaymcn]

Glad to remind you Lenny I wish MTV would bring back more music especially the unplugged shows

[AnconProducciones]

ooooo yheaaaa abba foreverrrrrrr XD

[2Shaymcn]

:))

[missbeauty58]

Wow this was amazing, I just love this video.

5 stars*

Love Carina XXX

[2Shaymcn]

Thanks for spreading the love Carina !!

[roydoncrossing]

Every time I watch this I think two things (well 3 but the third cant be put down here!) 1/ How these guys and gals can perform and 2/ Those 2 guitarists must surely 'bat for the other side' or have been sedated!! We will never see another Abba

[2Shaymcn]

Elephant tranquillizers I suspect Bill, those poor guys are zombied out !!! hehe

We want ABBA!! just one last time!

[roydoncrossing]

have to admit I would rather have the memory rather than the reaility although I am sure they would still manage the sound!

[SheerFolly]

I said last time that I am always repeating myself about these super Wembley concerts, so i will just say bravo for the performance and your vid, Shay. great post :))

[2Shaymcn]

Thanks Harold, its always a joy to upload anything from this concert!

[rosabinenbojn]

Great

Cool

Nice video

great work

[2Shaymcn]

Thank you for stopping by!

[MillionthUsername]

Ah, it's the old grab-the-guitarist-by-the-leg trick to try to make him mess up the solo! It seems those guys had the concentration of surgeons there though.

Somehow I don't think I'd be able to make it through, Shay. Of course I've never had I've never had to play lead with two beautiful girls clinging to my legs. Maybe I should practice this maneuver so as to develop more skill? : )

[2Shaymcn]

I might try that one too Mike

just on the off chance Agnetha and Frida hear me play some lead and rush and grab

Ill be ready to pass that audition !! hehe

[abbafanglosuk]

Hot stuff Shay - only their mother's know how those guitarists keep going despite the close attention!

[2Shaymcn]

Don't know how those guys didn't miss a beat John with those two girls 'molesting' them !! Although I think Lasse did give that solo a little extra 'umphh' at the end!!

[2Shaymcn]

Maybe it time to tell her !!

[SADL00KINM00N]

Oooh this is good stuff Shay, Björn's time to shine, and he does it so well! He looked so hot in this costume :D

And I've always admired the guitarists playing here... ;)

¡★★★★★!

[2Shaymcn]

Thought you might like this one Elin! hehe

Bjorn can rock with the best of them !

Ive gotta learn some of those lead guitar licks and maybe Agnetha will come grab my leg too !! hehe

[SADL00KINM00N]

haha well it worked for that guy.. Start practising!! ;D

[2Shaymcn]

Where did I leave my 'Play guitar like Jimi Hendrix' DVD , I must find it !!!!
