40 éve jelent meg ez a fantasztikus album.
Repül az idő.................
Számos országban különféle lemezkiadóknál jelent meg.
Először a Fernando nélkül, majd a második kiadásra felkerül a legújabb világsiker is.
Ez még jobban megnövelte az eladási számot.
A grafikát nyerte az együttes a Veckorevyn nevű újság szavazásán. Az olvasók az év együttesének választották őket. A díjat jótékonysági célra ajánlották fel.
Hans Arnold készítette a grafikát. A belső borítón a híres parkos kép látható.
Gyűjteményemben több változatot is láthatsz.
The first Scandinavian version of "Greatest Hits" was released on November 17th, 1975. The gatefold cover featured painting of ABBA created by Hans Arnold and the classical picture of ABBA on the park bench. The first issue of the album did not include "Fernando" but the song was added on the later international versions of the album. The Scandinavian release of "Greatest Hits" contained 14 songs which had been successful in Sweden, Norway and Denmark between 1972 and 1975. Even some non-single hits as "Hasta Mañana" or "Another Town Another Train" were included on this compilation.
Veckorevyn
ABBA became group of the year in the voting of the readers of the Swedish magazine "Veckorevyn". They were awarded with a painting of Hans Arnold and 5000 Swedish Crowns which the group decided to give for charity.
You can find some LP in my collection,too.

Bennyt gyorshajtásért megállította a rendőrség és úgy néz ki meg kell válnia jogosítványától.
Benny erről úgy nyilatkozott:
50 éve vezetek és még sosem büntettek meg semmiért.
Enköpingnél állították meg mert a 110 km-es sebességhatárt jócskán túllépte 138 km-rel ment.

Eyes of a Woman - the album
The sound on the album was more rocky and harder. The opening track "One Way Love" which would be the second single release from "Eyes of a Woman" was written by legendary Jeff Lynn from ELO. Agnetha contributed with "I Won't Let You Go" co-written with the producer of the album Eric Stewart who even had written two other songs - the beautiful ballad "I Won't Be Leaving You" and "Save Me (Why Don't Ya)". One of the most beautiful songs Agnetha ever recorded was without doubt "The Angels Cry" which was released as a single in The Netherlands. The photo sessions for the album were taken in the Drottningholm Castle outside Stockholm and featured Agnetha in dark blue clothes and a hat.
"Eyes of a Woman" stayed on the Swedish chart for 16 weeks peaking at #2.
30 éve jelent meg Agnetha szólóalbuma az Eyes of a Woman.
Egész más hangzásvilága van ennek a lemeznek, mint amit tőle megszokhattunk.
Nem is csoda hiszen az ELO zenésze írta a dalokat mások mellett.
A képek a lemezhez a Drottningholm kastélynál készültek.
16 hétig volt a svéd slágerlistán 2. helyezettként.

The song on the B-side "You're There" was not available on the LP/CD until 2005 when it appeared as a bonus track on the "Eyes of a Woman" remaster CD. The single which was released in March 85 became hit in Sweden where it stayed on the chart for 8 weeks peaking at #6

Melody with associated restaurant and English Music Hall of Fame is

landlord with an understanding of the business, I decided to go in as
owner, says Björn Ulvaeus in a press release.
ABBA the Museum opened
in May 2013. In the autumn of 2014 visited among other things, Mick
Jagger of The Rolling Stones museum where he received a private tour and
