Waterloo

ABBA (Björn, Benny, Agnetha & Frida) · 1974

Waterloo is ABBA’s first album under that name — recorded in Stockholm between September and November 1973. It introduces their signature blend of crisp vocal harmony, theatrical lyricism and tightly arranged pop. Its strength lies in consistency of craft, not innovation. Its weakness is uneven ambition — especially on 'King Kong Song'.
