Music: Re: [Classic_Rock_Forever] Re: ABBA to release never-heard-before song for first time in almost two decades

I dont know who's been pulling your leg Eddie, but the New Abba did not ever feature "the original members" of Abba. Maybe the lead guitarist or bass player or drummer or something; those guys have been known to hook onto a tour of an Abba tribute band.

Abba,well they were calling themselves THE NEW ABBA with one or two original members were in memphis in 04 I got to jam with some of them. then they all got up and did some ABBA. Sounded like ABBA to me. I think the guys name was Oliver?? They gave me tickets to their show but a tornado hit Memphis and caused a power outage in our hotel so we had to leave early.

I thought Bruce's Born in the USA was first on CD? The 'Visitors' has the amazing title track and few other decent tracks, but not as good as the better material on well, any other album imho if I line the tracks up side by side from best to worst. Then there's 'Two for the Price of One' that made me cringe altogether.

"The Visitors" had quite a few weak spots so I'm not enthused by a track that didn;t make the cut and I am an Abba fan. Certainly in my top 20 groups.
