In 1975 ABBA were still seen as somewhat of an exotic Swedish import. They had hit the top 10 with “Waterloo” and followed it with the minor hit “Honey, Honey.” ABBA took the American Bandstand stage to perform “SOS.” Despite astonishingly bad clothing choices, ABBA remains a gold standard for pop music. These were the happy days for the group when Bjorn and Agnetha were married and Benny was engaged to Anni-Frid.

Me Too! Yet now I have them in rotation on my Prime playlist.
Go figure.
The American Bandstand video I was referring to had them dancing to the Bay City Rollers!
Now that was a blast from the past! I went right away and downloaded some Bay City Rollers to my Prime playlist.
I guess because I graduated high school in 1976 I’m biased. But there has never been another decade like the 70’s for the greatest music.
