Collection - "Abba For The Record" Book

"Abba For The Record" by John Tobler was the first Abba book I ever owned and sparked my interest in the group's history. I remember receiving this book for Christmas (in either 1980 or 81) and reading it cover to cover Christmas evening.

The book starts off with a look back at the story of each of the four members of the group before Abba before moving to a year by year history including tours, single and album releases and TV appearances up to 1979.

This is a wonderful book and a great read for anyone interested in Abba's history -

Here is one of my favourite items from my collection - a gold promotional flexi-disc containing the following live Abba tracks -

• Fernando
• Rock Me
• Why Did It Have To Be Me
• Money, Money, Money
• Waterloo

The flexi-disc was given as a bonus to children who sold magazines and books for Christmas for the Swedish company Jultidningsförlaget, a publishing company using door sales as their main distribution channel.
