50 years ago, on 5th June 1966, Benny Andersson met Bjrn Ulvaeus - and so began an incredible partnership!
5th June, 1966: Benny Andersson of the Hep Stars and Bjrn Ulvaeus of the Hootenanny Singers meet for the very first time.
"Our bands were staying in the same hotel," said Benny. "We met under an elm tree in the middle of a nearby park. We figured it would be a good idea to try and write a song together."
50 years since that meeting, I hope you'll join us in taking another listen to the song that started it all - and please tell us which, of all the music Bjrn and Benny have collaborated on, is most special to you.
