The World's Greatest Albums - ABBA The Gold Singles - The Ultimate Critical Review
Abba Gold has frequently been hailed as the greatest compilation
album ever released. It has certainly sold millions of copies ...but does it
really stand up to scrutiny as the ultimate single record of Abba's finest
moments?
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.
