Have you ever been in a Roller?

No! I've been in a mustard-coloured 70s Jaguar or Daimler XJ12 or similar, with beige leather seats.

I've been in a Rolls Royce once.

You'll never in a squillion years guess whose it was.

Shirley Bassey. Actually, I'm sure you've told us this story before.

Close, but no.

Very close - and well done for actually remembering anything about a 'claim to fame' that even I generally forget - but not Shirl'.

I met her that weekend, but it wasn't her Roller.

I'd keep guessing, but we've kind of moved on.

Mull of Kintyre get tae f*ck!

Multi-tracked vocalisations.

Perhaps too many?

It's a good one though.

It is over.

Apart from the title track and the one about the tiger, I did feel the singles were a cut above the album tracks.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it.

I shall give it 3 stars.

I think this album shows why I'm not a HUGE ABBA fan, though I like them. They did their fair share of naff songs - I mean genuinely naff as opposed to naff-but-good - and some of those were included on this album, along with famous singles which though excellent, I've heard just too many times. I did like that one non-single with video, and that last track was quite pleasant.

3/5

One of the best songs of all time +

One of their best songs +

One of their very famous songs +

One or two unexpectedly groovy songs +

Moribund filler =

Trois etoiles.
