		Born in 1931 in Hova, a small town 200 miles south-west of Stockholm, Stikkan Anderson had once nursed ambitions to be a pop star himself.
		On Anderson's advice, the quartet shortened their name to Abba, using the initials of their first names (they also had to ask the permission of the largest fish-canning factory in Sweden which shared the same name).
		Anderson became persona non grata with his former proteges who, justifiably, held him responsible for the whole fiasco, and sued him for unpaid royalties.

		För utan Stikkan Andersson och de pengar denne dragit in på sitt musikförläggande och idogt skrivande av svenska schlagertexter hade ABBA aldrig sett dagens ljus.
		Något som Stikkan accepterade under förutsättning att de båda inledningsvis delade på en lön (det fanns inte plats för några fripassagerare i Stikkans kretsar) men detta var också räddningen för herr Andersson vilket då hade den tvivelaktiga utnämningen till Stockholms ledande restskattevrak.
		Stikkan var fast besluten att ändra på det förstnämda (hade han fått leva lite längre hade han säkert varit föregångsman i det sistnämda också).
