ABBA - Ring Ring (50th Anniversary)

ABBA celebrate the 50th anniversary of their debut album Ring Ring.

Reaching record shops in Sweden on 26 March 1973, Ring Ring offered a wealth of great pop tunes. There was, for instance, 'People Need Love', the very first ABBA single, and 'He Is Your Brother', a popular number on ABBA's 1977 tour of Europe and Australia. Crucially, on the title track the ABBA sound was born, as the group discovered how attractive the sound of multi-layered vocals was, and how exciting a song could be if you made use of all the possibilities of the recording studio.

The public responded well to 'Ring Ring' – the song and the album. Famously, for two consecutive weeks in April 1973, the Swedish 'Ring Ring' single was at number one, the English-language version at number two, and the Ring Ring album at number three on the combined singles-and-albums chart used in Sweden at the time. Record-buyers had fallen head over heels in love with this brand new group. And ABBA's sense of joy in trying different song styles and thrilling studio trickery can still be felt today, half a century later.

The Ring Ring album was originally credited to Björn and Benny, Agnetha and Frida – the name ABBA didn't quite exist yet. The group itself almost didn't exist, as the two ladies were still pursuing solo careers, and the two men were busy with many different projects when the album was recorded. But its huge success sealed the deal: from now on they would be ABBA.

Please provide your name, home address, details of the order and, where available, your phone number and email address.Returning products. If you wish to return the goods for any reason after products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, you must return them to us. You must either return the goods in person to where you bought them or post them back to us at Unit 9C, Ilton Business Park, Ilton Somerset, TA19 9DU. Please call us on 07814603281 or email us at andy@303records.co.uk. for a return label or to arrange collection. If you are exercising your right to change your mind you must send off the goods within 14 days of telling us, you wish to end the contract.

    When we will pay the costs of return? We will pay the costs of return:

    (a)  if the products are faulty or misdescribed.

    (b)  if you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the product or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so because of something we have done wrong.

    In all other circumstances (including where you are exercising your right to change your mind) you must pay the costs of return.

    How we will refund you? We will refund you the price you paid for the products including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment. However, we may make deductions from the price, as described below.

    Deductions from refunds if you are exercising your right to change your mind. If you are exercising your right to change your mind:

    (a)  We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the goods if this has been caused by your handling them in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we can inspect the goods and later discover you have managed them in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.

    (b)  The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.

    (c)  Where the product is a service, we may deduct from any refund an amount for the supply of the service for the period for which it was supplied, ending with the time when you told us you had changed your mind. The amount will be in proportion to what has been supplied, in comparison with the full coverage of the contract.

    When your refund will be made? We will make any refunds due to you as soon as possible. If you are exercising your right to change your mind, then:

    (a)  If the products are goods and we have not offered to collect them, your refund will be made within 14 days from the day on which we receive the product back from you or, if earlier, the day on which you provide us with evidence that you have sent the product back to us. For information about how to return a product to us, see above.

    (b)  In all other cases, your refund will be made within 14 days of your telling us you have changed your mind.
