Collection Update - Russian Abba The Album
Today I have added a copy of "ABBA The Album" to my collection from Russia. The front cover shows the Polydor record company name together with what appears to be the name of a Russian record company.
The back covers shows the track names in both Russian and English - the tracks are the same of those on the standard release of this album.

The B side to this version is "Rock'n Roll Band".
