5.0 out of 5 stars Great solo album from ex-Abba star, November 1, 2005

This review is from: Eyes of a Woman (Audio CD)

Agnetha's producer on this album is Eric Stewart, who had previously been a member of the Mindbenders in the sixties and 10cc in the seventies. He wrote two songs (I won't be leaving you, Save me why don't you) and co-wrote another (I won't let you go) with Agnetha. The album also includes songs by Jeff Lynne (One way love) and Justin Hayward (The angels cry, with Justin playing guitars on the track). There is an eighties feel to the album but the synthesizers never take over (though they come close to doing so occasionally, notably on Click track) - the focus is always on Agnetha's outstanding voice. Of course, this makes it impossible to listen to the album without hearing echoes of Abba and that may be a distraction to some people.

Whereas Agnetha's previous solo album (Wrap your arms around me) had yielded three minor UK hits, no singles from this album made the UK charts although I assume that some did in other European countries. Nevertheless, there are many excellent tracks here, especially the first five (One way love, Eyes of a woman, Just one heart, I won't let you go, The angels cry) and the last two (I keep turning off lights, We move as one).

This album is unlikely to appeal to anybody who doesn't like Abba, so don't worry about this until you've got a significant collection of Abba music. If you enjoy Abba's music enough to be interested in exploring further, you might enjoy this album although not all Abba fans love this album as much as I do.

This will be reissued soon. I have the original (West) German/Deutsch CD. I have the bonus tracks on other CDs.

Featuring tracks written by Jeff Lynne, China Burton, Justin Heyward, Eric Stewart (producing), John Wetton, Geoffrey Downes, and Agnetha herself.
