Abba Magazine
Issue 26 of the Abba Magazine which was published during July 1980 started with a report that the magazine had been following up requests from fans for a live album.
The official response received was that the group were focusing on their new album and that they had recorded five tracks including "Til The Night Is Gone" and that the next planned single (to be released October/November) would be "Happy New Year".
The second article contained further extracts from an interview with the group at Heathrow airport during a stop over on their way to Japan. The last major article detailed the group receiving gold discs and an Ampex "Golden Reel" presentation.
