Abba Gold

19th April 2019 saw the release of Showaddywaddy Gold on heavyweight 180g gold colour vinyl and on a three CD set! This date also marks the 45th anniversary of the release of the band’s debut hit single ‘Hey Rock And Roll’! The 3-CD 61-track featuring all the songs on the vinyl, and some of the band’s best album tracks! The album has an introductory note from the Band's co-founder Dave Bartram. From their winning appearance on an edition of 'New Faces', the 'Britain's Got Talent' of the day, to become runners-up in the series' 'All Winners Final', it took just a matter of months until Showaddywaddy, 'Hey Rock And Roll'. The single reached #2 in the UK Singles Chart and Showaddywaddy eventually had more UK hits in the 1970s than any other act…including Abba!

In both phases, Sedaka, a classically trained pianist, composed the music for his hits, which he sang in a boyish tenor.
