    I think artist should be "Björn & Benny Agnetha & Frida" as stated on labels.

      A mixed result here in this release. Opening track Side A (Ring Ring Swedish) sounds absolutely horrendous. Sound quality then rapidly improves - though SQ varies track to track. Definitely superior to any other pressing I’ve heard - from the OG Swedish / German and DMM release. Vinyl is quiet, and I’m assuming this is an Optimal pressing, due to the Made in sticker. Artwork is washed-out; a common feature of the entire Abbey Rd series. Master tapes are in pretty ordinary condition, given the final result on this release. As good as it will probably ever get.

        Compare to the very first Swedish pressing I also own in my collection, this new 1/2SM 45RPM Miles version is completely different league. Crispy, dynamic, balanced, lifelike sound.
        For me this is real stomper and by far the best issue of all Miles Showell's 1/2SM releases of ABBA albums yet (second best for me is Super Trouper).
        My copy is also dead silent, technically near perfect pressing.
        Highly recommended!
