Swedish pop group ABBA, founded in 1972, became famous when they won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974. It started a decade of almost uninterrupted string of hits and major selling albums.
After the group stopped releasing new material in 1982 there was a relative lull in their popularity – which came to an end in 1992 when their compilation album was released. The compilation has become one of the world's most best-selling albums of all time.
In 1999, a musical based on ABBA hits called 'Mamma Mia!' opened in London. With various international productions, it is one of the most popular musicals of all time.
ABBA were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2010, as performers. They recently released a new album in November 2021 and live shows with ABBA appearing as virtual 'abbatars' started in London in May 2022.

ABBA celebrate the 50th anniversary of their debut album Ring Ring with the album repackaged in multiple vinyl formats. Reaching record shops in Sweden on 26 March 1973,
 Ring Ring offered a wealth of great pop tunes. There was, for instance,
 'People Need Love', the very first ABBA single, and 'He Is Your 
Brother', a popular number on ABBA's 1977 tour of Europe and Australia.
 Crucially, on the title track the ABBA sound was born, as the group 
discovered how attractive the sound of multi-layered vocals was, and how
 exciting a song could be if you made use of all the possibilities of 
the recording studio.The public responded well to 'Ring Ring' – the song and the album. Famously, for two consecutive weeks in April 1973,
 the Swedish 'Ring Ring' single was at number one, the English-language 
version at number two, and the Ring Ring album at number three on the 
combined singles-and-albums chart used in Sweden
 at the time. Record-buyers had fallen head over heels in love with this
 brand new group. And ABBA's sense of joy in trying different song 
styles and thrilling studio trickery can still be felt today, half a 
century later.The Ring Ring album was originally credited to Björn and Benny, 
Agnetha and Frida – the name ABBA didn't quite exist yet. The group 
itself almost didn't exist, as the two ladies were still pursuing solo 
careers, and the two men were busy with many different projects when the
 album was recorded. But its huge success sealed the deal: from now on 
they would be ABBA.
