LOS ANGELES (Polydor/ Polar/ UMe Records) - Since 1982 the original four members of ABBA, Bjorn, Benny, Anni-Frid and Agnetha have not appeared in public together. On April 6, 2004 during the 5th anniversary celebration of the premiere of the hugely successful musical, "Mamma Mia," and the 30th anniversary of "Waterloo" winning the Eurovision Song Contest, the question was asked, will all four members of ABBA appear together on stage again for the first time in over 20 years?

The DVD "Super Troupers" (Polydor/Polar/UMe) released January 25, 2005, captures not only the excitement of that occasion but that of the entire ABBA phenomenon then and now.

"Super Troupers" encompasses a 90-minute documentary plus 30 minutes of extras. Featured are new, exclusive and in-depth interviews with all four members (shot in Sweden and London), offering a rare insight into the quartet; digitally remastered archival footage reaching back to the pre-ABBA '60s, with highlights of ABBA on tour and on stage, and the music of 24 of the group's hit records.
Also center stage on "Super Troupers" is exclusive footage from both rehearsals and performances of "Mamma Mia!," highlighted by the London 5th Anniversary Gala Special Finale, a medley that includes "Mamma Mia," "Dancing Queen" and "Waterloo."

The songs heard via vintage performances/video clips are "Super Trouper," "Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)," "Voulez-Vous," "I'm A Marionette," "Mamma Mia," "I Have A Dream," "People Need Love," "California Here I Come," "Fernando," "Eagle," "Head Over Heels," "Take A Chance On Me," "So Long," "He Is Your Brother," "Dancing Queen," "One Man, One Woman," "Thank You For The Music," "Does Your Mother Know?," "Knowing Me, Knowing You," "The Winner Takes It All," "Hole In Your Soul," "Waterloo," "Happy New Year" and "When All Is Said And Done."

Narrated by songwriter, producer, U.K. dance music king and ABBA fan Pete Waterman, "Super Troupers" presents a fascinating history of a band that has sold 350 million albums and whose music is reaching a massive new audience through "Mamma Mia!," which per its box office success is now officially the World's Number One Musical.
