    I'm very curious what Polar and / or Atlantic thought the point was of swapping the track running order placings of "Knowing Me, Knowing You" and "Tiger" on the cassette editions? Certainly wasn't for timing purposes, as the side A & side B times would have been the same regardless.

      got a copy of abba arrival cassette no- vpk1-4034. difference is there are no screws in the case. grey with black print no stick on label. cant find it on the list. numbers match up. print and cover are the same just a difference with the case.

        I just picked up a nice copy of Arrival MILS 4262 from Republica Dominicana. [Dominican Republic] with orange RCA Victor Label. The back cover has 'Prodicio for Distribuidores Musicales del Caribe C. for A. Santo Domingo Republica Dominicana' along bottom edge. Color Photo on front cover, black n white on back.
        I cannot find on Discogs...any help?

          I am interested in the 4x7" colored box set. Seems like it is only available through udiscovermusic and sound of vinyl. Price for 36 Euro is OK but they want 15 Euro for shipment... This is not OK...

                Quiz fact: The Arrival album sleeve was photographed at Barkarby airfield, northwest of Stockholm (source: ABBA The Museum).
