Abba Gold
ABBA's greatest hits album ABBA Gold, which to date has sold more than 28 million copies worldwide, is being re-released in a brand new CD+DVD package. The CD features the latest remastered version of the album, while the DVD features newly remastered versions of all the video clips featured on the original DVD.
The DVD will also include bonus selections in the shape of "before-and- after" split-screen comparisons of five original film clips and the remastered versions of those clips. The new ABBA Gold DVD also features a recently discovered archive find: a cartoon version of 'Money, Money, Money', made circa 1977. This very rare clip of 'Money, Money, Money' was made by the Australian production company Reg Grundy's , but was only ever screened briefly during ABBA's heyday and has never been seen in complete form since.
The remastering of the ABBA Gold video clips has been made by Cutting Room in Stockholm, Sweden, taking full advantage of the progress in digital technology since the clips were last remastered in 2002. You have never seen them like this before!
This Special Edition of ABBA Gold is only available until 30 June 2011 so don't miss out!

Professional Reviews
Rolling Stone (12/23/93, p.156) - "...these Swedes are a factor in the general revival of that silly decade, their giddiness a twist on the escapism that in more urgent form fueled disco and glam...."
Q (10/00, p.154) - Included in Q's "Best Best Of... Albums Of All Time" - "...Confirms that Sweden's Bjorn Ulvaeus and Benny Andersson made a Faustian pact circa 1972..."
Musician (11/93, p.93) - "...ABBA proved slickness and seething passion could coexist...."

With the availability of "The Definitive Collection" DVD, there really is no reason to own "ABBA Gold," unless you need to complete your collection of ABBA videos. "ABBA Gold" offers up previously unavailable (on DVD) videos for "I Have a Dream," "Lay All Your Love on Me" and the 1992 version of "Dancing Queen." "Lay All Your Love on Me" is really just highlights from other videos.
In addition to the videos is a short featurette, which essentially covers the same material that was covered in the documentary "The Winner Takes it All," and the only band member interviewed is Bjorn.
I may be wrong on this point, but the video quality seems a tad worse than "The Definitive Collection." "The Winner Takes it All," for instance, is washed out in some segments and the contrast is too bright in others. Other clips seem sharper than they appear in TDC, so I've no idea if any remastering of the original prints was involved. The sound quality seems to be identical to "The Definitive Collection."
If money were the issue, I'd definitely spend it on TDC. "I Have a Dream" is a good song, but to me, not reason enough to purchase "Gold" over TDC.
