127: ABBA Rises, Falls and Rises Again! (Part 2)

Episode Description from the Publisher

ABBA became an international sensation when they won the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with their song, “Waterloo.” In the years that followed, they created hit after hit after hit. They toured the globe. But then the band hit hard times. Agnetha and Bjorn divorced. So did Benny and Anni-Frid “Frida.” It seemed like ABBA had permanently fallen apart. But the 90s took a surprising turn for ABBA - and they have been under the Super Trooper lights ever since! Remember, kids, history hoes always cite their sources! For this episode, Kyla pulled from: The Story of ABBA by Jan GradvallDocumentary: The Joy of ABBADocumentary: ABBA: THE WINNER TAKES IT ALLWIKIPEDIAABBASITE the official website of ABBA“How ABBA's two marriages and divorces split the group apart for nearly 40 years,” by Tom Eames for People MagazineAre you enjoying An Old Timey Podcast?
