Comments
Very successful folk band in the 1960 and 70s. Besides performing own material, they covered and adapted US singer/songwriter hits as well as songs by Swedish troubadours. Björn Ulvaeus still recorded and toured with the band after ABBA had become stars. The group stopped going in 1974, but was active again 1979-1982 with only two of the original members in the line-up.
