  • whoa this must have taken loads of archival research! well done! its a good mix!

  • Thank you. It was a lot of work to be sure.

    I think I spent about a week compiling information. I think one of the toughest things to do was blend the songs just right. I knew most of the info, especially Aggy's. Benny's was the hardest to get because singing lead for him was an extremely rare event in the music world! Thanks for looking in.

    Peace from Iowa (USA)...Jim~

  • wondrous, Jim!

    Benny singiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiing waaaaaaa never heard him because Bjorn sings louder always :lol:

  • From there humble beginnings to super stardom.

    Yes, I guess you could say this is my mini-documentary to their rise to the top! Thank you Miriana.

  • Wow the work you must have put into this Jim but the outcome is so worth it, it is just outstanding and a completely unique view.

  • Thanks Jim. Most of the work went into research on the songs...the rest was easy!

  • I'm from the states and am 58 also. Never heard a fraction of these in the states. Now that I am, it is so refreshing. I think there are many like me and you just might be able to start a whole new craze for ABBA. The best all around music. Thank you

  • Fantastic work Jim, I love it! And congrats on hitting 250!!! Well done:)
