ABBA and Rutger "Svea Svea" rare unreleased track

info video: here is the rare unreleased ABBA recording of "Svea Svea".
As mentioned in "Abba for the record", the recording was started in July, 1971, with "dummy" Swedish lyrics. ABBA never finished the song, or wrote proper lyrics for it. In 1974 ABBA simply erased their main lead vocal, leaving Agnetha and Frida's backing vocals,and their guitarist Rutger Gunnarsson simply added his lead vocal. It was released as Polar 1188, which puts it between the Swedish version of Waterloo 45, and the English version 45. The 45 is credited on the label to Rutger and the "Kvartetten Bröderna Brothers Trio"

På lördag är det 40 år sen ABBA vann Eurovision med Waterloo i Brighton England. Vi hörde ett rykte - att Ulf Horn, 67 år, lyckades boka ABBA till dansbanan Galhammarudden i Svenstavik - och det för en ganska billig penning. Ulf ska ha kvar kontraktet. Lotta Bromé kollar upp historien med Ulf Horn själv. Lyssna här.

En gång i tiden gick det att boka ABBA för 2073 kr. Det gjorde Ulf Horn för det var ju marknad i Svenstavik och då brukar ju någon artist uppträda.

– Ja, de kom i en vit buss minns jag, säger Ulf Horn.

Träffade du dem?

– Ja naturligtvis. Jag betalade ju dem när det var klart. Jag träffade dem ju allihop

Nuför tiden har ju alla artister raiders med krav - vad hade ABBA för krav?

– Nej nej nej - vi hade inte ens en scen . De fick stå på ett lastbilsflak och där stod de och spelade.

Och så fick du en signerad 50 lapp av Agnetha?

Det hände i biljettkiosken, hon skrev i alla fall autografen. Jag minns att det var hennes idé.

Jag antar att femiotlappen hänger inramad på hedersplats i vardagsrummet där hemma i Svenstavik?

– Om det vore så väl! Den är borta!

Har du letat? Har du letat riktigt ordentligt?

– Det kan du tro, säger Ulf Horn.

Vi får väl efterlysa den då. Om du som läser detta känner till något om 50-lappen - hör av dig till oss. p4extra@sverigesradio.se

¿Los conoces?

time've Nuför todos los asaltantes artistas con los requisitos - lo que tenían requisitos de ABBA?

Y tienes un parche firmado el 50 de Agnetha?

Sucedió en la taquilla, que escribió todos modos autógrafo. Recuerdo que era su idea.

Creo que cuelga femiotlappen enmarcadas en el lugar de honor en la sala de estar en casa en Svenstavik?

- Si fuera tan bien! Se ha ido!

¿Ha estado buscando? ¿Ha estado buscando muy duro?

- Te hace pensar, dice Ulf Hornos.

It still seems unlikely a full public Abba reunion will ever happen, but the Swedish quartet are pushing themselves back towards the spotlight. Four months after they performed together for the first time in more than 30 years – at a private gala event in Stockholm in June – they have announced that they will launch a “virtual and live experience” next year.

The project, in partnership with Spice Girls svengali Simon Fuller and Universal Music Group, is being billed as “a groundbreaking venture that will utilise the very latest in digital and virtual-reality technology … which will enable a new generation of fans to see, hear, and feel Abba in a way previously unimagined”.

Abba’s Benny Andersson said: “We’re inspired by the limitless possibilities of what the future holds and are loving being a part of creating something new and dramatic here. A time machine that captures the essence of who we were. And are.”

Singer Frida Lyngstad added: “Our fans around the world are always asking us to reform and so I hope this new Abba creation will excite them as much as it excites me!”

What, exactly, the project entails remains unclear. Further details are to be announced in 2017, with the launch taking place in 2018.

Since their last official performance in December 1982, Abba have proved adept at managing their legacy – and maximising their revenues. The stage musical Mamma Mia! has grossed more than $2bn worldwide since opening in London in 1999. The 2008 film adaptation became the highest-grossing musical ever, with a worldwide take of nearly £500m. The 1992 compilation Abba Gold, meanwhile, has sold nearly 30m copies worldwide.

Speaking to the Guardian in 2014, Lyngstad left open the possibility that Abba might one day record again. “It’s difficult to talk about this because then all the news stories will be: ‘Abba is going to record another song!’” she said. “But as long as we can sing and play, then why not? I would love to, but it’s up to Björn and Benny.”
