*ALERT MESSAGE!* Dear community, for the very first time ever, I decided to take down one of my videos. It pertains our most recent "ABBA Location Tour - The Hotel & Abba Car 1975 | Then & Now 4K". However, it was for the sake of creating *this* brand new version - expanded and updated. Too many information came up, fascinating stories, anecdotes, observations, and above all, very important amendments. This new video runs almost 5 minutes longer. It features: • more insights into the "Hotel" shoot • more context & mystery surrounding the "Car" location spot • story from one of the "Fans" looking at ABBA in the "Car" • more observations on the overall album visuals • the correct identification & story of the car, and its fascinating whereabouts! This album and the visuals are so iconic, mythic, and this was important to me. Please consider giving this video a 2nd chance. *This* is the ultimate version now. Thank you!
It's All good, looking forward to both versions again and always my deep seated love for abba. All my love for Hellen in Australia was Hey Hey Hellen about her I'm wondering? Peace out, kudos, Heyselinga!😅
This album always fascinated me, yes the vintage atmosphere is evident. A lovely happy Abba 3rd Album. They all were having great fun. I studied the photographs, they sre so interesting. Yes the album should go in the hotel. Thanks for this information BB, brilliant 🌟
Good work! I was in a Payless Drug store in about 1974. I bought the album of which I believe I've owned 3 or 4 of the same album. The amber lighting in the photos was what attracted me. I painted an oil in 1980s of the girl with the full bangs piering through the window of the Rolls. The painting was stolen around 2012 when I lost my home. Really good of you to do this 74/75 walk back in time. IM JUST EATING IT UP. THE GIRL IN THE BACK WINDOW OF THE ROLLS LOOKS LIKE AN ACTRESS FOR ALICE IN WONDERLAND. I GOT THE IMPRESSION SHE MIGHT BE BRITISH, BUT CANNOT VERIFY. WONDERFUL FOR YOU TO HAVE TAKEN A LOOK BACK TO A 47 ROLLS AND 30S ISH HOTEL. VERY EXCELLANT WORK! WOULD LIKE TO SEE THIS AGAIN IF POSSIBLE? I WAS A DIE HARD ABBA FAN IN 1970S THROUGH 1990S. I STILL CANT GET ENOUGH OF THEM, I MISSED MY CHANCE WHEN THEY WERE AT PORTLAND OR. MEM. COLLESEUM IN 1980. I TOOK GUITAR LESSONS AND SOS WAS ONE OF THE FIRST ELECTRIC GUITAR SONGS I LEARNED ON THE CREAM COLORED TELECASTER. THANKS FOR DOING THIS TRIPPY LURCH BACK IN ABBAS HEY DAY!😅
This album was a very big success in Australia and New Zealand long before 'The best of" and 'Arrival".In Australia it sold about 600K copies that was really huge regarding the population of the country (about 14millions 1975-76) not to mention the sales it managed in Sweden that was nearly 500,000 copies.That was again very big!
I remember when this Album was released in 1975 , I was obsessed with it ..spent hours examining and listening to the many varied fabulous tracks..yes that ABBA Album should be framed in that hotel ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Agnetha's maxi-dress....I do remember like a dream ,back in the earrly to mid '70's my mum and her friends wearing such dresses called 'maxi' and were very fashionable at the time.
Thanks a lot for the video! The first time I saw this cover, it was about 1996, when I was a schoolboy (but already ABBA fan). I remember that I was looking at the cover and was thinking: "Who are the people outside the car? Who is the driver in the uniform? Why are ABBA so overdressed?" After all these years I got an answer ;) Thank you very much and best wishes from Moscow!
Your level of detail always impresses me. I’m reminded of the line: “Well there was me and Bobby and Bobby’s Brother, please take me back to that place…” The hotel should definitely put the photo up.
Even more fascinating and informative than your previous version - thank you Bobby's B! I remember vividly listening to this album when I had saved up enough pocket money to buy it in the later-70s - what a pleasant discovery it had been of the bombastic sing-along "Hey Hey Helen" and one of their most underrated singles "Rock Me" - which was released in very few countries as a single and which only became known to me when they performed it on a TV special filmed for the Aussies in 1976. Those were the halcyon days of discovering the exuberant shimmering sound of ABBA and their harmonies and catchy choruses!! THANKS again - this was a wonderful imaginary memory trip for me, alongside them in that elegant Rolls Royce! ❤
Hello Bobby's brother, As someone born in 1964, I consider myself a witness to the ABBA era and have been a fan since April 6th, 1974. I must say, as a much younger ABBA fan, you're doing an incredibly fantastic job here as a RUclipsr. I still remember vividly when ABBA's third album was released. Here in Germany, the album also came out as a club edition of a book club under the title "Mamma Mia," but the cover was the same, just with an ugly lettering added by the club. I received this album as a gift when I was 11 years old. As a child, I initially thought it was a cover version. In the 70s, there were MCs and LPs from EUROPA that weren't original recordings. Years later, I finally treated myself to the original LP. Of course, the club edition was also sung by ABBA themselves. However, the cover didn't fit into my collection. Now I have both. 😊
Thanks a lot for another great video. I think the cover is also a reference to the song "Man In The Middle". "Did you see that man in the limousine.." the song about rich guys with pretty ladies.
This channel is a precious Abba library that Bobby's brother has created for every serious Abba fan.Such hard work and research, so many valuable infos and docus, all concetrated here.I'm one of his first subscribers and as a lifelong fan for more than 4 decades i say i feel so lucky to be part of this community.
Gracias Bobby por mostrarnos tantos detalles de nuestro querido grupo abba , realmente estoy viendo todos tus videos, y me parecen fascinantes , porque hay muchos detalles y fotografías que no sabía de mis queridos miembros del grupo abba , una ves más muchas gracias, y deseo lo mejor para ti 🎉🎶🎶🎶🎶🇸🇪🇸🇪📀📀👏👏👏👏
thank you for the update B.B.!! All this time looking at the photo, and never noticed Agnetha's left hand, around Frida, resting on the back of the seat. I mean, I think subconsciously I did. Any how, it sure sort of gives you a glimpse at what she was feeling at the time. 🤩👍💅 and yes, those are the same outfits on the front as they are the back. That fur coat is resting on the suit case on the back cover, and Frida has it on in the car. And Agnetha just pushed the green dress up, Probably so it wouldn't snag. Outstanding video!! Thank you again, for this!!✌🙏👍
Fascinating! The windows on the album cover could even be wider than the three pains, they seem rather small if they were to be that size? I've always loved this artwork, so grandiose and pompous; and I've always been intrigued as to know who the people are on the cover, especially the girl in the window on the left, and the lady in the black dress on the right of the album cover. I don't know why them in particular, but they always stuck out as 'the stars' along with ABBA! 😂
My goodness the detail that you give us is incredible. This album cover has always been my favourite but it’s also been so mysterious until now. I am amazed that the hotel staff didn’t know of their famous history. I too have longed for an alternative photo of ABBA with the car. At the same time it keeps the cover unique. Surely there must be more people who were there and remember the day.
This is such a fascinating location tour for me, as this is one of my favorite ABBA album covers/artworks!!! I love the insight that ABBA's chique and sophisticated clothes and the pompous look of the hotel could be read as an ironic comment on their critics accusing them of only caring about commercialism - so clever!!! For me, the cover and artwork has been a reflection of one of the actual songs on the album, "Man In The Middle", since I first heard it, as it also has social commentary on the ambiguity of luxury in the lyrics: "If he's ninety-five she don't give a damn / Just as long as he pays the bill / But you see that man made a big mistake / He can buy the most, nearly anything / But he can't buy an honest friend". And the very first line of the song talks about "that man in the limousine" - maybe that limousine is ABBA's car on the cover?
Great video and reallly astonishing that no alternate shots of the shooting appeared anywhere... the dresses are the same, the boa and the fur are on the back cover as well... the fur to Frida's feet and featherboa on Björn's chair.... and of course Agnetha had no other option sitting in that - let alone getting in and out - by ripping up the skirt abover her knees... so the dresses are the same... and given the not so high budgets at the time, i could assume they did all in one day.......
...I admire you so much of how you come up with these ideas concerning our heroes, then to research and plan your commentry and then on to the filming(not forgetting all the edits and voice overs,).What you unveil to us on each post is outstanding, the amount of content you give to your ABBA community is highly anticipated as you are so likable and professional..i hope you have as much fun making them as we do watching it. 😄.... When i bought this LP i dissected all of the images as up until then i hadn't seen any photos where they had legs!, they were always chopped off at their waists!...i remember having to put my left ear on the speaker on the radiogram to really appreciate the backing tracks and to learn the lyrics! ...ooh such innocent times back in the early 70's...thank you again BB for yet another fascinating, appealing post.. 👏👏...PS... I've often thought you have a soft calming voice, that would sound great going down the meditation mind- fullness route! 🙏😄💞🤗
Does this mean I have to come up with new and expanded comments? This is so exhausting! lol Nice update and worth a second watch, even though [all] of your videos deserve repeated watching!! Thanks again!
Although this album contains some if my favorite ABBA songs like Mamma Mia, Rock Me, Intermezzo No1 and I've been Waiting for you, I always regarded the artwork as strange, since it is so different from all other ABBA albums. Now it all makes sense. I enjoyed this video very much! Thank you very much for your insights and taking us back to ABBA's places, Bobby's Brother!
You have such an eye for detail, BB. Thank you for expanding this video. I love the idea that the people at the hotel had no idea about the ABBA connection until you told them. Yes, they should definitely put the album cover up in the lobby!
Fantastic overview of my favourite album cover. It’s mind boggling that no other photos exist from that scene. Nice to hear about that girl looking through the window and what’s she’s up to today. Will you do a video on ‘The Album’ cover sleeve and inner artwork? That would be fascinating. Thank you for putting all of this together, fantastic quality as always
Like I said, in the previous video that was taken down, this album is one of my favorites. Contains “hey hey Helen”… proof that Abba could rock with the best of them if they wanted to!
Hi ,back when ABBA's official site has a fan forum ,I asked about this album cover and the people looking into the car, etc. Some guy gave me quite an informative answer, he knew one of the women looking into the car. Unfortunately the fan forum was abruptly closed down around 2005 so the answer is lost forever. Thanks for the video .
I remember that topic as well and watching the deleted video I was thinking I am pretty sure the car was a Rolls Royce. Now this new video shows indeed it was. Sure in the forum there was some info on the girl at the back window as well. Apapa
@@jamiew6438 I made many friends on that forum and was very upset when they closed it with no warning. I lost contact with most people. Some of the posts are still on line on an archive site. There were a lot more pages but last time I came across it not much was left. At first there were posts right from day one when moderators were testing it out. Apapa
“Mammamia” “I’ve been waiting for you” to look into thèse captivating pics 🙌 I wasn’t one of those lucky ones but I can tell you that this cover was part of my teen-ages. I used to hold this album over and over staring at the scene, getting lost in who knows what thoughts 😅 Fantastic!!!
Tutto molto affascinante glamour Abba Number One il mio primo acquisto a 33 giri lo ascolto ancora nonostante siano passati tanti anni hotel auto d' epoca le foto dell album sono azzeccatissime ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for a thorough and entertaining video as per normal, u are our go to man for all things Abba, u are a treasure, on behalf of all your fans, thank you for all your hard work!
Well the three matching windows to the left of the ones you thought were too high, they are nearer the ground. I bet that was the building. The colour and surface texture may have been redecorated since 1975. In fact, I believe the car was located exactly where the photographer said, but the windows are being seen across the road, further away, so they are the windows you thought. Bingo!
We can also note that ABBA was inspired by the look of the 30's for their black and white costumes from Money, Money, Money of course but also for another photo shoot where Agnetha & Frida pose in fishnet stockings and a black and white striped pink bustier with B&B in suits, top hats and glasses of champagne
@@bobbysbrother137 hey I found it thank you fir the repost :) thank you for the music there's stuff I'm gonna rewatch like the ode to freedom and no doubt about it informative videos they are great
Hi Bobby Brother, a few months ago I visited the same location, amongst other ABBA locations. I jad the same Impressionen that something must be wrong. As you I couldn't locate the windows in the background. And, why renting a room for make up and dressing, if Baldersgatan 1 is around the corner. That makes no sense. The windows you found look like the one on the cover, but Baldersgatan 1 is even closer. I think its somewhere else. But I want to find it out. What do you think? Any new Ideas. Let me know for my next trip to Stockholm.
The windows behind the car match up with those across the street so the car was facing the opposite way from which you think. The photographer would have been standing outside what is now an embassy with his back to it.
Да да! Странно, что они не знают и не сохраняют такую историю отелля и АББА... Фото альбома АББА обязательно должно бы весеть в холле! И отель обязан подчёркивать этот исторический факт в своей рекламе!! Куда смотрит их маркетинг! 😂

Hi Bobby Brother, a few months ago I visited the same location, amongst other ABBA locations. I jad the same Impressionen that something must be wrong. As you I couldn't locate the windows in the background. And, why renting a room for make up and dressing, if Baldersgatan 1 is around the corner. That makes no sense. The windows you found look like the one on the cover, but Baldersgatan 1 is even closer. I think its somewhere else. But I want to find it out. What do you think? Any new Ideas.

I wish I lived in Stockholm so bad...
Me too.... 😢
The windows behind the car match up with those across the street so the car was facing the opposite way from which you think. The photographer would have been standing outside what is now an embassy with his back to it.
Looks like Bjorn's hand was moving too.
❤
In respect to the windows, it could be possible that the owner of the building replaced/modernised the window frames.
And where is the hotel receptionist in that cover sleeve of ABBA ?. Was she still alive ?
❤
А вы не спросили персонал отеля, почему такая реконструкция до неузнаваемости?
Да да! Странно, что они не знают и не сохраняют такую историю отелля и АББА... Фото альбома АББА обязательно должно бы весеть в холле! И отель обязан подчёркивать этот исторический факт в своей рекламе!! Куда смотрит их маркетинг! 😂
Was Sweedish "prog" different from the genre known as Prog Rock?
It looked classier back then than now. It now looks like any typical sterile office environment.
Simrishamn is in the south east of Sweden. Not south west!
they really liked "brown" on their covers ??
