Voulez-Vous  (1979)

Voulez-Vous was first released in Sweden on April 23, 1979. Recording sessions began in March 1978 and continued until March 1979.

When ABBA’s sixth album was recorded, the popular music world was in the midst of a disco craze. This certainly left its mark on Voulez-Vous, which was characterized by dance beats and rhythmic inflections. As if to emphasize this tendency, the title track was recorded at Criteria Studios in Miami, Florida, USA, where The Bee Gees made their disco-era records.

Other hits on the album included ’Chiquitita’, ’Does Your Mother Know’, ’Angeleyes’ and ’I Have A Dream’.
