A digital concert residency in support of the album, "ABBA Voyage", opened in London on 27 May 2022. Also known as "ABBA: The Album", it was released in conjunction with "ABBA: The Movie"— tour mini-musical "The Girl with the Golden Hair", performed during each of their European and Australian shows in 1977. Their sixth album coincided with the marital split between Agnetha Fältskog and Björn Ulvaeus and the massively shifting currents in Popular music, with Disco, which had been on the wane, suddenly undergoing a renaissance thanks to the 1977 movie S"aturday Night Fever".

Andersson and Ulvaeus wisely decided to not follow any stylistic trend or adopt any modern production technique; while there may be some digital gloss here, voices aren't auto-tuned and rhythms aren't sequenced.ABBA's final album was recorded during a period of major personal shakeups, principally in the decision by Benny Andersson and Frida to follow the same route to divorce that had already been taken by Björn Ulvaeus and Agnetha Faltskog. The rest of ABBA's fourth album is strikingly consistent and accomplished, from the sly, bouncy "When I Kissed the Teacher" to the atmospheric title track, making room in between for the three excellent singles and five other substantial Pop tunes. Ring Ring" was a chart-topping album in Belgium, and has a big success in the Netherlands, Norway and South Africa. The opening track, "The Visitors", with its ominous synthesizer sounds and the distinctive lead vocal by Frida, announced a change in musical style.

Tbm não veio o código para download em mp3, o que eu havia visto em um unboxing e resenhas de que vinha. This is shown not just in the fact that the backing track for the title song was cut at Criteria Studios in Miami, where the Bee Gees had cut "Main Course", "Children of the World", and most of the rest of their Disco-era music, but through the Funky beat that ran through much of the material; yet the album still had a pair of soft, lyrical Euro-Pop-style ballads ("I Have a Dream" and "Chiquitita"), which proved as popular as any of the more dance-oriented songs, and were reminders of Fältskog's and Ulvaeus' roots, in particular, in popular Folk music during the mid- to late '60s.I have to say in my opinion that the pressing of the "Voyage" LP in my copy of this box set is the best one of all the "Voyage" pressings I have in my collection (have almost all the colored ones and the standard black one and have listened to all except the green and orange one so far). Four decades after their last release, 1981’s The Visitors, their musicremains a fabric of our culture, withstage shows, cinematicblockbusters and even themed restaurantsbringing ABBA to new generations of fans. Fältskog and Lyngstad were happy to participate so long as they didn't have to promote the resulting album, a compromise Benny and Björn happily accepted.
