Summary

When ABBA made their first visit in Japan in November 1978, they were hardly a household name. Ten years later, upon their return to Sweden, the group had made such an impact on the Japanese population that they could hardly get enough of ABBA. Much of this success was due to a television special, simply entitled "ABBA Special", in which ABBA performed many of their most popular songs - from "Waterloo", "SOS" and "Dancing Queen" up to "Eagle", "Take a Chance on Me", and "Summer Night City". Three of the songs were unique live performances, and ABBA also treated the Japanese audience to an exclusive preview of "If It Wasn't For the Nights" from their upcoming album 'Voulez-Vous'. This legendary television special is now released on DVD for the first time, complete with remastered stereo sound. --, Description on container
