内容简介

More than 30 years after their stunning victory at the Eurovision Song Contest with "Waterloo" in 1974, ABBA’s popularity remains undimmed. From disco classics like "Dancing Queen" and "Mamma Mia" to ballads like "The Winner Takes It All," the group’s musical legacy endures, thanks in part to covers by artists ranging from U2 to Madonna. ABBA: The Scrapbook gives a complete history of one of the best-loved pop groups of all time: the early days in Sweden, relationships within the band, their triumph at Eurovision, the group’s outrageous 1970s fashions, the making of ABBA: The Movie, the eventual break-up, and their continuing influence on pop music. The book also covers the hugely successful stage musical Mamma Mia! and its upcoming film adaptation. Fully illustrated throughout with rare photos of the band and memorabilia, ABBA: The Scrapbook charts the amazing story of how an obscure Swedish quartet conquered the world.
