CD Reviews

Almost pure perfection
barry | Boston, MA United States | 06/30/2010
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Abba never fully conquered the US which is really bizarre for not only is their music superb but levels above most music from their recording period - the 70s. I think part of it was their singles. Most of their singles were huge dance tracks. Awesome music but not songs to necessarily make a listener want to get an album. And it is on their albums with all their tracks that you see how truly talented they were. ARRIVAL was ther first album of theirs to be a big hit in the US and the singles DANCING QUEEN and KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU were a big part of the reason. But this set is almost pure perfection and is magic from beginning to end. It is one of the best albums by Abba but also a representation of just superb pop rock.



The album opens with WHEN I KISSED THE TEACHER, a great pop rock track, and then we get the super pleasure of DANCING QUEEN. This group can do anything musically and they prove that here. MY LOVE MY LIFE, KNOWING ME KNOWING YOU, THAT'S ME and TIGER shoow all different sides of the group in a magical way. Even a song with a title like DUM DUM DIDDLE is amazing. Here we get the original 1977 album digitally remastered for superb sound quality. It is as if listening to it for the first time. We also get great liner notes and bonus tracks FERNANDO and HAPPY HAWAII. These bonus tracks are in no way filler and make this cd release a 5 star experience. Don't fall under the assumption that Abba was only a dance music group. They did that great but were so much more and this cd is a great representation of that. I put it in my cd player and just hit repeat over and over. Pure music heaven. Enjoy."
