Please read:
This radio special was broadcast in Chile in 1980. It was copied in a cassette tape to me by a friend who used to work at a local radio station in my hometown back in 1990, by then I was 16 and an avid abba fan.
Obviously by 1980 I was 6 years old so I had no idea this program existed.
I decided to share this with you to keep the spirit of abba alive.
It is important to note that by 1980 Benny and Frida were still together and the speaker makes it clear.
This radio special must have been recorded before the release of any of the Super Trouper era singles so the latest abba hit by then was still Gimme Gimme Gimme. You may also find a lot of Voulez Vous songs as the "by then" lastest LP.
What I love is the way the speaker tells abba story as in "present" time (1980).
Although he makes some pronunciation and data mistakes, I consider this 1980 radio special a treasure to share with all abba fans around the world.
I included only the biography facts since there is no rare songs.
The quality may vary from good to not so good at times but remember...the radio special is 41 years old (and 31 since i own a copy in a long forgotten tape until now)
Enjoy!!!!
