Three things learned from Simon Sheridan's book The Complete ABBA: 1. This was the original gatefold sleeve used on the Swedish version of the band's 1975 album Greatest Hits, as drawn by Swedish horror artist Hans Arnold: 2. "I Am An A" was a self-deprecating tune introducing the band members that was only performed on the band's 1977 European and Australian tour and was never recorded. (Remember, the band's name was an acronym representing the group's members' first names.) 3. To mark the 30th anniversary of the group's 1st international hit "Waterloo," the band collaborated with Jim Henson's Creature Shop in 2004 for "ABBA - The Last Video." Look for the group members in cameos throughout the film.
