This album was also lacking somewhat in the singles department-only two of the songs were worldwide Top Ten hits-Not very impressive compared to the albums that bookend it.
On this album, ABBA seem to do things that even they don't seem to realize were counter to the stereotypical view some had of them.
ABBA-THE ALBUM was highly successful but it did not build on ABBA's commericial success, and when this album failed to break ABBA into superstar status in the US market it became clear to many that America would never be conquered by ABBA.

At this point Abba were huge worldwide and, in a stroke of genius, they came up with an album theme that was reinforced every time they helicoptered into an airport to promote the album.
ABBA wanted us to know that they were big league players, and the helicopter was symbolic of this.
When the album came out in 1976, I’d just got back from a fortnight with my school cruising around Scandinavia and the image on the album connected very deeply with me, as it was so evocative of where'd I'd just been.

It was the British who later turned it into the legendary "ABBA's theme song" by releasing it as a single in 1983, which has been given the status by some reviewers of "ABBA's farewell single".
A brief version of the song was used as the finale on the 1977 tour, on the 1979 tour the song was performed in the middle of the concerts.
As usual, the notes concentrate on the singles released from the album, with the addition of an extended theory on other potential singles, with little comment on the album itself.

 Adrian's Album Reviews : ABBA
In fact, the majority of the album is rather slight, slightly cheesy euro-pop and the bulk of the material struggles to match the quality of the two singles contained on the collection, 'Waterloo' and 'Honey Honey'.
ABBA were at the peak of their game for this album.
ABBA seeming had that talent in spades circa the recording of this album.

ABBA's fourth album appeared after the group had arrived as major stars, and it shows the quartet at the absolute top of their game.
Wellander's power chords over the chorus of "Knowing Me, Knowing You" are some of those dramatic musical effects that this group played for maximum effect, which gave their music a raw power that their detractors usually overlooked; in the new edition, it's impossible to ignore.
The two bonus cuts are both choice additions: The lost B-side, "Happy Hawaii," is a soaring, rocking dance number that got left off the album, and the chronologically related single "Fernando" had been recorded during the making of the LP but not included on it in most of the world.

Abba is all over the map, as if the band was still putting the finishing touches on its identity.
Abba were never able to achieve consistent success in America, perhaps because they rarely visited.
The third album by the Swedish quartet is not only one of my favourites by them, but established their staying power by two Australian #1s, one of which spent eleven weeks at the top, and made them more visible by their putting promotional film clips, nowadays called videos, for four of their songs.

 Abba - The Album: read reviews
Without a doubt, 1978's The Album is the Swedish pop demigods' finest moment.
Good enough to be a single and beautifully crafted in all respect, the poor track not only failed to make it as a single but left out from from ALL best collection dics as well (only available as MV on definitive collection's DVD).
ABBA was not just a Brit-pop singles phenomenon...they were greatest songwriters and studio-production team since Lennon/Mccartney...selling over 350 million albums worldwide must mean something.

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 of the London production, but traditional fans of musical theater should consider it as well.
After all, Andersson and Ulvaeus's songs have always felt as if they were more than isolated pop gems and actually belonged to a longer narrative.

ABBA's second (and U.S. debut) album contains the American Top Ten title track, as well as "Honey, Honey," a minor U.S. hit that deserved better.
This album is rather unusual in the group's output, however, for the fact that the guys are still featured fairly prominently in some of the vocals, and for the variety of sounds -- including reggae, folk-rock, and hard rock -- embraced by its songs.
The reggae number "Sitting in the Palmtree" is quite remarkable to hear, with its perfect Caribbean beat and those radiant female voices carrying the chorus behind the beat.

Abba had a tendency to produce well written songs, most of them becoming party anthems or songs you sing when you are absolutely brain dead on alcohol.
This album is very different to the others, compare it to Voulez Vous or Super Trouper and it may as well be an album by the Cheeky Girls.
It's not a good idea to have the best song on the album up first, it makes the rest of the album seem meaningless and a waste of studio time.

ABBA: Bjorn Ulvaeus (vocals, acoustic & electric guitars); Benny Anderson (vocals, keyboards); Agnetha Faltskog, Anni Frid Lyngstad (vocals).
Easily the angriest song ABBA ever recorded, "I'm A Marionette" sounds in retrospect like a portent of the band's rancorous end less than four years later.
It is classic rock ABBA on an album.

For me the most interesting thing to note is that when the album was recorded, despite some modest success, Abba were still languishing in that post-Eurovision limbo that seems to affect so many winners.
Major breakthroughs were not far off with the release of SOS and Mamma Mia, but they were still to come.
Possibly the band members were already sufficiently well known in their home country, and perhaps the Polar management didn't want to run the risk that people in other countries would not recognise who Abba were.

 Progressive pop. | The Album review | ABBA | GoldLyrics.com
"The Album" is unique in the ABBA canon: it is their one LP that can be considered as 'progessive' music.
Apart from the 3-song suite from their "mini-musical" of the time, the LP also includes "Eagle" (at nearly 6 minutes an anamoly in their repertoire), a unique conceptual track which opens the album and tells the listener this is not Just Another ABBA Album.
Overall probably their most ambitious album, and one of their outstanding works.

Let's face it, albums need to be judged by their own criteria for success, and by that reasoning, Abba is good for one thing and one thing only: getting your soused in-laws dancing at your wedding, thus briefly distracting them from you, your faults and when you're going to give them some grandkids to spoil.
Yes, from half-formed memories of having your diaper changed while your mother hummed along to "Fernando", to your prom and to your grave, Abba will be at your side at every step you take through life, ever spiralling towards dust and "Thank You For The Music".
Can you conceive of taking the time to listen to an entire Abba album (not a greatest hits, mind you, but a proper LP) without even having "Waterloo" in which to nurse your wounds for three minutes?
