Side B
Dancing Queen (3:50)
Hailing from Sweden, Abba - the pop supergroup of the 1970's, took the world by storm with such songs as "Fernando," "Money, Money, Money," Knowing Me Knowing You" and "Dancing Queen" from their 1976 album "Arrival."
Abba's lineup consisted of couples Anni-Frid Lyngstad, Benny Andersson, Bjàrn Ulvaeus, Agnetha Fâltskog. Look at the first letter of their first names... A-B-B-A.
Despite earlier releases like "Waterloo" in 1974, "Dancing Queen" was the very first Abba 12 inch single issued in the US under the Atlantic Records label. This double "A" sided promo from 1976 contained the same version of "Dancing Queen" as on the LP "Arrival," but with much better fidelity. It was never released commercially to my knowledge.
