Amazon.com essential recording
Anyone looking for the key to Abba's enduring appeal should look no further than "Voulez Vous" and "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)" for their answer. There was an innocence to the Swedish quartet, even when they were singing about one-night stands and the invitations to them. Gold establishes that the band, while appreciated as campy, were actually multifaceted in their execution. "S.O.S." has a raw urgency in its chorus, and "Does Your Mother Know" draws its energy from classic '50s rock & roll. Likewise, you don't have to be Priscilla to swoon over "Mamma Mia" or "Dancing Queen." And when it comes to drama, those soaring vocals on "The Winner Takes It All" turn the song into a bitter anthem of every relationship that has ever fallen apart. The much-covered "Lay All Your Love on Me" is practically epic. --Steve Gdula |

Love this CD by Janis L. Quattrocelli  5 Stars
November 28, 2009
I bought this CD because I've always liked Abba and the songs on this CD are featured in the movie "Mamma Mia." I thoroughly enjoy listening to these songs.

My girls love this album by Mom of 3 girls  4 Stars
November 27, 2009
After seeing the movie Mamma Mia, my girls were listening to the Broadway soundtrack. I decided that they should hear the original versions of the songs. They really enjoy hearing the songs sung by singers instead of actors. Now, even my 2-year old sings along Dancing Queen.

Abba by D. Bownds (Lubbock, TX) 5 Stars
November 19, 2009
I went to see theatrical production of Mama Mia - sat on aisle second row - could see stage - actors facial expressions and most of all, the music conductor! Was phenomenol! Bought this CD, it's been in the CD player in my vehicle since the day I received it. Great. Downloaded it on my computer - listen to it all the time. I remember 3-4 of ABBA songs from my youth, but they are all my favorites now. I drive 25 miles to work and back everyday - I sing along and "dance" as much as I can - great music!

| The Definitive Collection
by Abba
Is there anything that simply screams the 1970s' most indelible pop cultural clichés--the sunny romanticism, perfect vocal hooks, feathered hair, stacked heels, and flared sateen britches--more than the Swedish pop phenomenon Abba? And while many a pundit snootily dismissed them during their prime as some sort of prefabricated aberration, their worldwide popularity peaked somewhere just south of Beatlesmania. Indeed, Abba's music was as finely tooled and crafted as anything to come from a...

| Mamma Mia! The Musical Based on the Songs of ABBA: A Decca Broadway Original Cast Recording (1999 London Cast)
by Benny Andersson, Julian Poole, Jenny Galloway, Nicolas Colicos, Paul Clarkson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Lisa Stokke, Eliza Lumley, Melissa Gibson, Siobhan McCarthy, Louise Plowright, Jenny Galloway, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Stig Anderson
Put together by Abba's own Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus, Mamma Mia! manages to cram over 20 of the Swedish supergroup's songs into a threadbare plot. It goes a little like this: Young Sophie is getting married and she's trying to identify which of three men is her father. That's about it. Wisely, the musical doesn't mess around with the songs, save for the insertion of some dialogue or for having some of them performed by a man (it works amazingly well). Abba fans will jump on this import...
