The album was a new venture for ABBA, including mini-musical songs.
The fifth album was released in December 1977, coinciding with the release of the film "ABBA: The Movie." It includes the UK No. 1 singles "Take a Chance on Me" and "The Name of the Game."
Although it was released during the Christmas season, the pressing did not arrive in time for the UK release, and it was released in January 1978. It also includes the mini-musical "The Girl with the Golden Hair" that was performed on the 1977 tour, and is an impressive album with more artistic content and a white jacket.
