Steevo Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Swedish pop group ABBA are to release a new version of their last album, featuring a previously unreleased track for the first time since 1994, the group's website said on Wednesday. ABBA remain one of the world's most popular bands and their music got a new lease of life with the "Mamma Mia" stage show and film. The band's website said a deluxe edition of their final album, "The Visitors," would be released in April. "For ABBA fans, the most sensational inclusion in the package will be the previously unreleased track, 'From A Twinkling Star To A Passing Angel (demos)'," a statement said. "This is the first time since the 'Thank You For The Music' box set in 1994 that ABBA have opened the doors to the tape vaults to release previously unheard music from the group's heyday," it added. The release will also feature bonus selections along with a DVD of rare and previously unreleased material from the archives. Definitely be picking this up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danielmclark Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 This album made it onto the list of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, so it can't be all that bad. 2112 and Moving Pictures are on the list, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
