Following on from his well-received book Let’s Talk About ABBA, Stany Van Wymeersch now turns the spotlight on how musicians and other creative heads from an array of fields have been inspired to draw from ABBA’s mesmerizing musical legacy. The artists’ contributions, from Suzi Quatro to the late James Last and from Pete Waterman right through to Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols) firmly illustrate that ABBA and their music have clearly left an indelible fingerprint on the output of a wide and diverse range of firmly established and respected artists. Some have even gone so far as to integrate or recraft ABBA’s music when shaping their own unique projects.

Stany Van Wymeersch is the author of five successful books about ABBA and was a consultant on the official ABBA: Super Troupers exhibition at The O2 in London (UK). He also sat on the international jury of professionals that presents the Eurostory Best Lyrics Award at the Eurovision Song Contest.
