ABBA. A colossal presence in pop music's pantheon. With over half a century of astounding success and stellar achievement to their name, they've left a legacy that barely a handful of other acts can claim to have matched. But arguably their greatest gift to the world has been the indelible mark they've made on the hearts, minds and souls of their legions of fans - each in a very personal, very particular, ultimately unique way. In 'ABBA Unabashed: Fifty Years of Fandom', two typical ABBA-philes bare (almost) all, sharing with you their individual stories, far-from-authoritative thoughts and dubious opinions - from the moment ABBA first burst through the door and set up permanent camp in their lives; down the rolling decades as the incomparable quartet's albums and appearances continued to frame and feed into their experiences; right down to the present day and the remarkable impact of the latest extraordinary flowerings of the ABBA phenomenon. Honest, offbeat, wide-ranging and maybe just a little enlightening, it's absolutely guaranteed to help fill that ABBA-shaped hole in your soul.
