Abba Date - 20th October 1981

On the 20th October 1981 Polar issued a Press Release confirming that Abba would have a new album out before Christmas. At this point the album was yet to be named and "One Of Us" and "The Visitors" were missing from the list of completed songs.

What I find interesting is the very last paragraph where Gorel comments on the rumours that the group are splitting up. Her last sentence ("look forward to many more years with Abba") turned out to be a little optimistic as the group would effectively only be together for a little over 12 more months.
