The ABBA Guide to Stockholm

Page 1

Come on, let's go! The ABBA Guide to Stockholm is the first book of its kind, taking you to a selection of more than 60 important ABBA places in and around Stockholm. ABBA used their home town regularly as a backdrop for their record covers, music videos and dozens of photo-shoots. Find out where the famous park bench photo was taken, scenes from ABBA – The Movie were filmed and where ABBA recorded their world-famous music. This handy book will also guide you to Stockholm’s biggest tourist attractions and many popular entertainment venues, like Kungliga Slottet, Stadshuset, Gröna Lund, Konserthuset and the Hard Rock Café – all places that played a significant role in ABBA's career. Sara Russell (née Barnes) was born in Hanwell, west London in February 1965. Even though she was only nine years old, she clearly remembers seeing ABBA win the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974. Since then she has been interested in everything about the Swedish super group. In the years that ABBA were out of the spotlight, Sara was a regular contributor to various UK-based fanzines. Amongst others, she was invited to join ABBA Report in 1996, for whom she wrote numerous articles and reviews. The same year she made her first trip to Stockholm and has been back several times since.

The ABBA Guide to Stockholm contains hundreds of photos, all the addresses and transport information you will need, and of course a map of Stockholm and its surrounding area.
