The lavish box set ABBA - The Complete Studio Recordings comprised 9 CDs & 2
DVDs, plus a full colour booklet with timeline and photos. A separate booklet
contained lyrics to all the songs contained in the box set. The Complete Studio
Recordings marked the first ever release of a complete ABBA studio recordings
set, and the first set to tell the ABBA story both through audio and video
content.
CDs 1 to 8 featured each of the band's studio albums, plus all
non-album singles and B-sides, and versions in Spanish, German, French and
Swedish. CD 9 contained a selection of rarities, most of which were originally
released after the band's heyday.
The nine CDs comprised every single
studio-recorded piece of music commercially released by the Swedish group (under
the name ABBA and/or Björn & Benny, Agnetha & Anni-Frid/Frida) on
single, LP or CD. This included alternate mixes, but not edited versions nor
extended versions (that did not feature alternate mixes). Some of the tracks had
never been released on CD before.
The Complete Studio Recordings also
included two DVDs, featuring all the promo videos ever released by the band, a
documentary entitled The History, and a five selections from a previously
unreleased concert, which was originally a part of the television special Dick
Cavett Meets ABBA.
ABBA - The Complete Studio Recordings was a strictly
limited edition release, only available for a limited period of time and in
limited numbers. However, a simpler version of the box set - featuring only the
9 CDs and the timeline booklet - was released in Denmark in 2006. |
