For admirers of Frida's early recordings, a complete collection of her EMI years was long overdue. In 1997, a double-CD was finally released.
  


Jean-Marie Potiez - who made the video Thank You ABBA and later wrote books such as ABBA - The Book and A Tribute To Frida - had long been pushing for a complete CD release of the pre-ABBA recordings Frida made for EMI in the late 1960s and early 1970s. In the summer of 1996 I got involved in the project, and in early 1997 I started working more closely with Sven Åke Peterson at EMI on putting together a double-CD. I also contributed liner notes and researched the previously unreleased bonus tracks that were included on the double-CD.

More information - including an earlier English translation of the liner notes by Sven Åke Peterson, superfantabulous scans of Frida's EMI records, and reviews of the double-CD - is available at Jean-Marie's Frida 67-72 page (see link to the right).

Released October 13, 1997. Catalogue number: EMI 7243 859360 2 9.
