I bought it for a relative, who lives in a small town with no place that still sells CDs. Amazon will be shipping it directly to them, so we'll just wait it out.Cancel it and go to a store to buy it. This is one release that's everywhere.
The alternate artwork CD was in stock at my local Target store today.I can’t wait to get my CD next week. Looking forward to hearing this album. I got the alternate artwork.
Never say never. If this new one sells in the gazillions (which it might or might not, depending on what their streaming expectations are) I wouldn't be surprised to see a follow-up. But, 40 years is a long time and a lot of those old ABBA fans may not even hear about this being out. If not for this forum I don't think I'd have heard of it yet.Sorry to say that this will be finally ABBA's final album for good.
Because Universal owns EVERYTHING (except for what's owned by Sony; and of course they no longer possess what was lost in the fire, though they DO own it -- in every sense of the word)......handled by Universal. Yet Richard's album is on Decca and ABBA is on Capitol. Boggles my mind...
I don't think record labels mean a thing to Universal anymore--seems they just channel releases to whatever label markets to a certain demographic. Same as how they labeled some A&M releases with a Verve logo since it was "jazz".Odd thought: Both Richard Carpenter's Piano Songbook and ABBA's Voyage are handled by Universal. Yet Richard's album is on Decca and ABBA is on Capitol. Boggles my mind.
It's because the project was spearheaded by a lady at Decca UK. It's in the liner notes, but I've forgotten her name. Rachel sonething?I'm surprised they wouldn't put Richard's album on A&M. Is this the first time he's had something that DIDN'T say A&M on it?
Just listened to the new abba album, and must say not very impressed at all. Think they should have not bothered. very disappointing, what did you think?My thanks to member Scott B. who tipped me off that RICHARD CARPENTER'S PIANO SONGBOOK has already been released in Japan. I ordered it on Monday and it arrived today! It's an SHM-CD for all the good that is.
Quite a day today - I've gotten two new albums - one from ABBA and one from Richard Carpenter. That would have been totally unthinkable just a few years ago, yet here they are, ripping into my computer as I speak.
Just had a friend say, they thought it was quite good. Fit in nicely. Take into account the years. Haven't listened myself.Just listened to the new abba album, and must say not very impressed at all. Think they should have not bothered. very disappointing, what did you think?
Totally disagree. The history of ABBA tells us that they never really did have an official break-up, but that they just started a break and for years never got back together. A good word from the institution of marriage would be "estranged."Just listened to the new abba album, and must say not very impressed at all.
