ABBA's third album, released in 1975, finds the group at the end of the first phase of their career. Having scored massive worldwide success with the bubblegum classics Ring Ring and Waterloo in the previous two years, the Swedish foursome continued that streak with the sweet I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, I Do, the silly Tropical Loveland and Bang-A-Boomerang. However, Mamma Mia and the grandly-titled Intermezzo No. 1 showcased a new compositional maturity somewhat reminiscent of Brian Wilson's 1964 productions. Several songs, including the brilliant, enormous hit S.O.S. and the excellent Hey Hey Helen (covered by Lush 15 years later), contained the first inklings of the melancholy that would become such a fundamental part of their later albums. ABBA's self-titled album is the first key turning point of their long and exceptional career.
