The ABBA album was the group's third collection, and was arguably where they finally came into their own. With hits like 'Mamma Mia' and 'SOS', the multi-layered 1970s take on early 1960s pop idioms showed ABBA as a group with a unique sound and approach.
It was with the hits from this album - which also included 'I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do' - that ABBA first made a considerable impact in Australia. 'Mamma Mia' occupied the top position for no less than 10 weeks!
