ABBA Arrival
WX/NM Used Audiophile Vinyl Record
Record Label: Nautilus Superdiscs NR 20
Arrival is the fourth studio album by the Swedish pop group ABBA. The album contains three of the group's biggest hits, "Dancing Queen", "Money, Money, Money" and "Knowing Me, Knowing You".
Nautilus Superdiscs featured superior quality pressings with extended dynamic range and the highest quality control standards. Surface noise often found on mass-produced releases are virtually non-existent on Nautilus' silky-quiet pressings. All are cut at Half Speed and sourced from the original analog stereo master tapes. Only the finest imported virgin vinyl was used.
Very light wear on the cover. Corners are dull. Color insert is like new. Label has no spindle marks but has two small maintenance stickers. Vinyl looks like new and plays beautifully.

Review: Widely considered the Swedish foursome's first classic album--and historically important as the first to use the now-famous mirror-B logo--1976's ARRIVAL contains three huge hit singles, the dramatic "Money Money Money," the downcast "Knowing Me, Knowing You" and quite possibly the band's finest four minutes, the absolutely perfect pop classic "Dancing Queen," a combination of Spectorian grandeur, McCartneyesque melody and the indescribable vocals of Agnetha Faltskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad. The rest of ABBA's fourth album is strikingly consistent and accomplished, opening with the sly, bouncy "When I Kissed the Teacher" and closing with the atmospheric title track, making room in between for the three excellent singles and five other substantial pop tunes. Although three LPs and a greatest-hits compilation preceded it, ARRIVAL is aptly titled, as this album announces the band's move beyond bubblegum.
