5.0 out of 5 stars This is the only tribute album you need., May 16, 2002

By	Andy "Of the dandy variety." (USA) - See all my reviews

I happened to stumble on this gem, and thought "ABBA music redone, A-Teens was good, but I want more...it's mine!" The new mixes of the ABBA songs are really good. A personal favorite of mine: Money, Money, Money redone by Tiny T, is an excellent example of taking the original disco version, and making it, what I call, "technofied" a blend of disco and techno. This CD has an incredible array of styles. Ranging from techno to vocal to upbeat disco. Hey, I'm about 20 some years from the original time of ABBA, and if their music can break the age barriers, and if it can be done by some of today's artists in a respectable manner, then you have a formula for success. Why settle for less, when you can have it all, ABBA's music "upgraded" what more could you possibly want?

5.0 out of 5 stars ABBA's music as good as it gets, in super modern versions, July 9, 2000

By	ROBERTO MÁRCIO DOS SANTOS (BELO HORIZONTE, BRASIL) - See all my reviews

As a fan of the Swedish group ABBA, I tend to like anything that has to do with them, but I do make a point at recommending this tribute cd. Even if you don't like the original recordings by ABBA, you'll get surprised at how great these versions sound. The artists who made these new versions created very interesting songs, such as "VOULEZ-VOUS", "KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU", and "CHIQUITITA", which are all extremely modern and disco-like, surprisingly different from the original ones but at the same time with the eternal magic of ABBA.

4.0 out of 5 stars My god, it's actually enjoyable!, October 10, 2004

By	Lorna (Rochester, NY) - See all my reviews

I've found most Abba tributes to be hardly bearable, but on this album you can find some fun dance remixes that involve MORE than putting a drop bass over a poor attempt at duplicating the original. And I love me some dance mixes. So hearing more inventive beats and interpretations of the songs is fun.
