17.THANK YOU ABBA 1994 French video ..Available.
Perhaps the first video documentary about ABBA. This was directed by French
ABBA chronicler Jean-Marie Potiez (author of ABBA-THE BOOK) The video is only an hour and is kind of marred by some bizarre cross-cuts between the interviews and
the songs. The English narration is also badly translated. No new interviews with ABBA members are featured but there are interviews with
Michael B. Tretow, Stig Anderson , Rune Soderqvist and Owe Sundstrom. Stig looks very aged and weary even though he still had
three years to live. Among the more fascinating footage are four pre- ABBA's solo songs-(Att Älka Varens Tid, Sunny Girl, Baby Those Are The Rules, Nu Skall Vi Opp Opp Opp) from the 1960's.as well as footage from the currently hard- to -get -ABBA-The Movie.

This music of ABBA is intregal to this movie. The main character of Muriel
played by Toni Collette is among other things an ABBA fan, and at least
four ABBA songs are featured. ABBA is not entirely portrayed in a positive light. The movie sort of implies that losers listen to ABBA.

27.ESSENTIAL STOCKHOLM 1998 Australian Video release
This is a remarkably detailed video put together by the Australian production company-Northern Lights,
This is largely a travel video-that shows every conceivable ABBA related place in the Stockholm area.
The video also works simply as a video travel guide to Stockholm.
The video is narrated by an Australian fan and features an interview with Michael B. Tretow. The video is extremely
well researched and presented but a little dull ,h owever it is spiced up by the inclusion of lots of ABBA footage-much of rare and obscure.
Among the rare footage is Frida's first tv performance and a rare Agnetha performance of "Dom har glömt " .
This video is available from the ABBF Record Service.

31. THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL 1999 Swedish/British video/Tv special
Chris hunt's intelligent TV documentary was produced with the cooperation of the members of ABBA and thus features
some surprisingly candid exclusive interviews with Frida, Benny and Bjorn. As a whole the documentary is quite good-though one could do without some of the reverent testimonials. One also could do with less promotional material for the musical- MAMMA Mia. Another disappointment is Agnetha's appearances which are merely her reading from her biography-"As I Am". The documentary includes snippets of a number of rare ABBA tracks and performances.
There are number of interesting moments on this special by my favorite is when they show anm aerial view of the Stockholm Archiplego coupled with an instrumental piano solo by Benny.
This was released throughout the world as a broadcast TV documentary. Interestingly, different edits were used in different countries. This documentary is available on VHS video in most places and on DVD in some places.
32. ABBAMAIL videos ....
From time to time, ABBAMail , the influential ABBA mailist and website, puts out unofficial complimation videos. The videos usually feature original TV specials or videos that are not otherwise available. The video for Chess for example features The 1984 Stockholm concert , and 1984 Sveriges TV documentary (in English) detailing the birth of Chess.
Fans looking for vintage videos should stop here first.
33. ABBA-THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION-2002 Internationally released DVD and Video
A companion set of sorts to the recent audio collection with the same name. This is a collection of videos of 35 of ABBA songs. Most of the videos are ABBA's official promotional clips.

Also for the first time three Spanish language clips are being made available .
This collection is being released in most of the major territories in July 2002. This DVD is likely to be a must have for ABBA fans.
Songs included : Waterloo, Ring Ring, Mamma Mia, SOS, Bang-A-Boomerang, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, Fernando, Dancing Queen, Money, Money, Money, Knowing Me, Knowing You, That's Me, The Name Of The Game, Take A Chance On Me, Eagle, One Man, One Woman, Thank You For The Music, Summer Night City, Chiquitita, Does Your Mother Know, Voulez-Vous, Gimme!

ABBA Gold-SOUND AND VISION International release Fall 2003 -2CD/1DVD
This combines the new ABBA gold DVD with reissues of the ABBA GOLD and MORE ABBA GOLD CD's
40. ABBA In Concert DVD edition International release. March 2004
This is a documentary of the 1979 ABBA tour of North America & Europe directed by Swedish TV pro -Urban Lasson. It mostly features musical segments from the concerts, but also documents life on the road for ABBA as well as a seemingly endless series of segments with roller skaters.....It has been shown before on TV (back in 1980) and been out on video, but had not been available recently... The main body of the original TV special included twelve songs- all but one of which could found in original studio versions on either the Greatest Hits Volume 2 or Voulez-Vous. Some Fans have objected that the performances of the songs are edited-but while not complete most the song segments are relativley long. Apparently, the camera did not actually film complete shows-so in many cases the songs were not filmed in their entirety. A few of the songs benefit from live presentation notably -"Summer Night City" and "I Have A dream" wheras some of ABBA's best songs -"Waterloo", "Dancing Queen" , and "Knowing Me, Knowing You" do not come off as well in live performances. .. This DVD new version features two songs not included on the original home video-The Way Old Friends Do and Thank You For The Music, as well as the full version of "I have A Dream" which was widely used previously as the official promo clip for that song.../. "The Way Old Friends DO" is easily the best moment of the film and seems strange that if was left out of some of the 1979-1980 versions of the TV special as,well on off the original home video released in 1980. This performance orginates from 1979 ABBA's concerts' at London's Wembley Stadium in one of the last important concert of their careers..(though they did not know it at time.) The song features Benny on accordion and the all the group singing. It almost borders on spontaniety, almost seems genuinely emotional , both of which were qualities in short supply for ABBA when performing live...At one point Lasson chooses a great back shot of the group which really gives one a sense that yes, we are looking at music legends.... I think that in general that Lasson did a good job on this special.. Some listeners have complained about the sound quality, which I cant comment on because i have not heard the DVD in 5.1 sound but I didnt really notice bad sound quality... The DVD features informative Interviews with ABBA's tour promoter, Thomas Johannson, and the film's director Urban Lasson and a Fully illustrated booklet with an essay by Carl Magnum Palm.. . This is the first time this title has been released on DVD.

ABBA-Our Last Video- July 2004 International DVD/video release
ABBA thought to have some minor reunion to mark the 30th anniversary
of
their Eurovision breakthough. A near reunion nearly occured at
the fifth
anniversary performance of Mammia Mia in London's West End. It
was hoped
that Agnetha might induced to come out of hiding due to the need
to
promote her album. Instead only Bjorn , Benny and Frida showed
up, on
stage in a semi-reunion. Frida had attended performances before
but had
never gotten up on stage with B&B before....
Luckily, all four members of ABBA finally agreed to appear briefly
and
separately in a short but clever and entertaining video clip broadcast
during the 2004 Eurovision song contest..The video features ABBA
puppets
and ABBA song references, The DVD features the video , a making
of the
video segment, and some of the full original ABBA videos that
were
mentioned in the "OUR FINAL VIDEO." The video is cute
and clever but it
does seem almost like ABBA should have not bothered to tease us
with
such a limited reunion....
DVD Contains forty minutes of exciting videos-ooh what a a bargain....

ABBA- SUPER TROUPERS documentary
International Release September 2004
The thing is subtitled " A Celebratory Film from Waterloo
to MAMMA MIA!
30 years of music" !!!!!!!!
A fascinating TV documentary of ABBA narrated by record producer
Pete
Waterman which includes material about Mamma Mia fifth anniversary
...
Much of the material is rehashed from the THE WINNER TAKES IT
ALL
documentary , it uses some of the same interviews created for
that...though instead of segments about Mamma Mia's 1999 premiere
we
get material about three ABBA members appearing at the fifth anniversary
of MAMMA MIA...ABBA's history is told in a rather haphazard, and
incomplete way, but this video does offer lots of up close and
personal
moments with all four ABBA members including new interviews with
Bjorn,
Frida and most amazingly Agnetha who speaks in both English and
Swedish... Chapter titles follow...This documentary is a little
too
heavy on clips that be found on other ABBA DVD's...

Discography
Vinnare och förlorare Swedish movie January 2005 A Swedish
comedy
directed by Kjell Sundvall that stars Daniel Gustavsson.For some
reason,
This movie features Frida's 1971 Swedish version of
*Can't Take My Eyes Off of You*...
ABBA-THE MOVIE- 2DVD set September 2005 release ,
Also released in
single DVD version. This will be playable on Pal and NCPS.
Finally a re-release of ABBA-The Movie. ABBA's 1977 cinema theatre
release. It had never been released on DVD .Prior to 2005 the
movie had
also been out of print on VHS.
The Movie (if you didn't know) is largely a concert film with
an
amusing if thin story about a Australian DJ trying to interview
ABBA.
The film is directed by Lasse Hallström. Lasse was the director
of
most of ABBA's videos and would later go on to direct My Life
is a Dog,
Cider House Rules and many other films.
There are two versions of the movie.The single dvd version has
no
extras. The 2 DVD version has the film on one disc and bonus features
on
the second disc. The bonus features are an interview about the
film with
Lasse Hallström, Björn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson,
the original ABBA -
The Movie trailers; an ABBA - The Album TV commercial and a picture
gallery. Apparently, there were no live outtakes available. Fan
experts
complain that there is more material that could have be included
, for
example more documentary material about the Australian tour...
American fans had to wait for a a copy since apparently the DVD
release in the Usa was delayed due to a legal dispute between
Universal
and Warner over who has the right to issue the DVD...Warner had
tried to
release ABBA-The movie on DVD in the USA,but Universal had objected....
ABBA-Music in Review 2DVD Set Uk DVD October 2005 released
internationally
Somehow, Classic Rock Legends was allowed to make this DVD which
includes some licensed ABBA TV appearances from the BBC, Musikladen
etc
interspersed with inane interviews from "experts".....
(" a leading team
of music critics among them members of "Bjorn Again"
) The video has a
48 page booklet as well...I havent seen it, but people have given
it
mixed reviews due to the low quality of the clips and the experts
chosen,,,
ABBA-The Complete Studio
Recordings 9CD/2DVD Planned Release November
7, 2005
Following the example of last year's Japanese box set, Polar /Universal
have put together a new "complete' box set.This is the first
internationally released box set to compile all of ABBA's studio
albums...
The audio component features most of ABBA's released recordings
including all eight studio albums, b-sides, foreign language recordings,
most alternate mixes as well as the rarities that were released
after
ABBA broke up... The set has two tracks new to Cd- the mono mix
of "ON
and On And On" previously heard only on videos, and alternative
mix of
Waterloo...This set is the first to include Spanish versions as
bonus
tracks on every one of the eight studio albums.
The major exclusion here is of course, ABBA's live album and the
half
or dozen other officially released live tracks..But they are not
"STUDIO' recordings.
Naturally, unreleased studio recordings (like the full version
of
"Just Like That " or "Nationsang' ) have been not
included here either..
Nor does one find private releases like "Sang to Gorel',
"Fanfare for a
Ice Hockey Championship".
The DVD set features basically a repackaged version of THE DEFINITIVE
CollectionDVD set on the first DVD. the recent "OUR LAST
VIDEO'
puppet video is included as a bonus. The DVD's in this release
apparently are being made in a NTSC format that is playable in
region
0...
A history of ABBA originally found on the ABBA GOLD DVD and a
short
version of the 1981 DICK CAVETT TV special concert is on the second
DVD.
There have been complaints
from fans that the Dick Cavett segment only
has five of the originally aired nine songs-Supposedly, they can
not
find the other four songs in the Swedish Tv archives.
Annoyingly, this will be llimited edition release...So it wont
be
around forever...

Abba: Gold - The World's Greatest Albums DVD mid 2006
Quoted verbatim from the jacket-"The story behind Abba's
Gold, one of
the greatest pop albums ever made. Drawing on rare Abba performances
from TV and film archives around the world, this is the first
ever
independent film review of Abba Gold. The film draws on the reflections
of a team of leading critics, musicologists and working musicians
to
produce the most authoritative and comprehensive review of a landmark
in
popular music." Ok I like, ABBA too, but the ABBA Gold album
just annoys
me ...

SNL - 1975 - 1976 -The Complete First Season -December 2006 8 DVD box set
Includes every episode of the first season of NBC's Saturday Night Live, that featured Chevy Chase, John Belushi and others. Thus this set includes ABBA's appearance on NBC's Saturday Night on 15 November 1975, in a show hosted by Robert Klein. Their performance of "SOS" is infamous for being lip-synched, but is still entertaining.
SNL shows and performances have been released and rerunned before, but usually not in their entirety, so this first time that the complete show that ABBA performed on has been made available..
Mamma Mia! 5th Anniversary Special

LONDON cast album -- as well as three London cast finale
bonus audio tracks which are being released in the U.S. for the
first time including "Mamma Mia", "Dancing Queen"

There is also a deluxe booklet featuring cast photos, a behind-the
scenes-documentary hosted by original Broadway cast members Joe
Machota and Tina Maddigan, some opening night footage, interviews
with producer Judy Craymer (lord help us) , director Phyllida
Lloyd (augh) librettist Catherine Johnson (my god) and original
ABBA band members Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus(

footage of different productions of the show from around the world.
