Summer night city - Abba

Being into picture discs combined with being into Abba has become a bit of a nightmare over the past few years. Their record company has re-released the majority of their singles on the 7" picture disc format, and usually they're not very cheap either. I've refrained from buying them for exactly that reason, but fortunately some deals have crossed my passed recently, and that was exactly the incentive I needed.

'Summer night city' was the Swedish band's non-album single, recorded during sessions for the album Voulez-Vous (1979), but not included on that album. However, it was released as a single prior to the album, and reached number 5 in the UK singles chart and the Dutch Top 40. 

My collection: 7" single no. 7298
Found: Revin Records, received 31 August 2024
Tracks: 'Summer night city' / 'Medley: Pick a bale of cotton, On top of old Smokey, Midnight special'
