Commercially, Super Trouper, ABBA's seventh album, was another worldwide blockbuster. "The Winner Takes It All," its lead-off single, released several months in advance of the album in most territories, was a smash; for example, it was the group's 14th consecutive Top Five hit in the U.K. and their eighth number one there. The title track was also a British chart-topper (their last), as was the album, their sixth. "Lay All Your Love on Me" made the U.K. Top Ten, and "On and on and On" was released as a single in some countries, hitting the Top Ten in Australia. (Typically, American success was more modest, though the album went gold, and "The Winner Takes It All" was a number one adult contemporary and Top Ten pop hit.) Musically, Super Trouper found ABBA, always trend-conscious, taking account of the passing of disco and returning to the pop/rock sound typical of their early albums. Only "Lay All Your Love on Me" employed a dance approach. The title song had the kind of martial beat and pop sound more in keeping with the group that had broken through with "Mamma Mia" and "S.O.S.," and "On and on and On" paid homage to one of their chief influences, the Beach Boys, with an arrangement reminiscent of "Do It Again." Lyrically, there was a distinct sense of world weariness and melancholy, from the divorce lamentations of "The Winner Takes It All" to the dissatisfaction with touring expressed in "Super Trouper" and even the nostalgia for a simpler time in "Our Last Summer." For performers on top of the world, the members of ABBA were putting an unusual amount of what sounded like real unhappiness into their pop music. [The 2001 reissue added "Elaine," a non-LP B-side, and "Put on Your White Sombrero," an outtake. Both were excellent songs.] ~ William Ruhlmann
SUPER TROUPER is ABBA's seventh--and next to last--studio album, and one of their most artistically satisfying. The album's chart-topping singles include the propulsive title track, "Lay All Your Love On Me" and the bittersweet anthem "The Winner Takes It All," which many rank with "Dancing Queen" and "S.O.S." as one of the Swedish foursome's masterpieces. The rest of the album continues the more reflective, adult themes explored by its predecessors, VOULEZ-VOUZ and THE ALBUM. It's difficult to separate the downcast melancholy of songs like "Our Last Summer" and "The Way Old Friends Do"--recorded live at the same performance heard on ABBA LIVE in 1986--from the time period's gossip reports of the breakup of the band's two marriages. Even with such considerations aside, SUPER TROUPER is one of ABBA's finest releases.
Commercially, Super Trouper, ABBA's seventh album, was another worldwide blockbuster. "The Winner Takes It All," its lead-off singlQ (9/01, p.126) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Occasionally works wonders...as on the 'The Winner Takes All'..."

4 stars Nice album
This was probably ABBA's most mature-sounding album, next to 'The Visitors', it's really almost perfect containing their most respected song ever "The Winner Takes It All", the catchy title track, "Lay All Your Love On Me", "On & On & On", "The Piper", etc... But one song on here just bugs me to death, "Me And I". It's a ridiculous song about having a multiple personality. It really doesn't fit in well with the rest of the material & ends up sounding rather weak placed between "Andante Andante" & "Happy New Year". Other than the one song, the rest of the cd is well worth the money, & you get 2 bonus tracks as well!

5 stars THE WINNERS ARE US DEFINITELY
ABBA is one of the groups that as years go grows as the best group of the seventies. No matter what Sex Pistols might have done. ABBA's songs are masterpieces of melody and lyrics. Even minor classics like Put on your white sombrero becomes irresistible for the listener... Enjoy it.

Skyscraper National Park
Hayden Skyscraper National Park CD  (2001)

Super Trouper
CD $10.79  Audio Samples
Touted early on as a Canadian counterpart to Beck, singer-songwriter Hayden (aka Paul Hayden Desser) found himself without a label after a few promising outings for the majors. Initially self-issued in very limited numbers, SKYSCRAPER NATIONAL PARK garnered significant indie buzz, and for good reason--the album, which was eventually released in the U.S in 2002, is a meditative, folk-influenced masterpiece marked by Hayden's wistful vocals and chiming guitar lines (see the subtly expansive "Dynamite Walls"). Although it seemed as if Hayden would be unable to match this underrated low-key triumph, he did exactly that on his equally impressive `04 follow-up, ELK-LAKE SERENADE.
In the three years that took place between Toronto singer/songwriter Hayden's 1998 Everything I Long For LP, the fragile-sounding musician all but disappeared from vision, only to slip back into the public eye with his third full-length disc, the provocatively low-key Skyscraper National Park. As the story goes, the record was recorded at the singer's home with a few close friends, and with no real contract or label, Hayden chose to release only 100 copies of the disc in his own handmade packaging. Thankfully for everyone else, the demand was much higher than expected, and the originally impossible-to-find record was given a full release. A record with such a lengthy back-story is often over-hyped and underdeveloped, but Hayden isn't exactly the norm. The record is a quiet affair, and the singer's normally monstrous low range is more prone to a falsetto for the length of the record, but it doesn't change the effect of brilliant tracks like "Dynamite Walls" or "Long Way Down." There really aren't any weak points on the 11-track effort, and as expected, the LP is a swirl of emotions and sentimentality -- all of which avoid being sappy and instead come across as unequivocally honest. Skyscraper National Park is an amazing record that tells its entire story with a hushed voice and subdued instrumentation, but is still more affecting then being screamed at for hours on end. Hayden rarely disappoints, and this slight variance from his older work is simply a new direction for his masterful songwriting. ~ Peter J. D'Angelo haydenskyscraper national parkHayden breaks his 3-year silence. Skyscraper National Park is the welcome return from self-imposed exile. Critically acclaimed yet commercially overlooked, Hayden's path is as storied as it is unconventional.In 1992, Hayden first begins writing and recording his own material at home on a 4-track.

Slow Charm
Figgs Slow Charm CD  (2002)

Super Trouper
CD $13.25  3.5 stars Audio Samples
When 15-year old Mike Gent first met up with 14-year old Pete Donnelly at a public high school in Saratoga Springs, NY the two could not have imagined that their mutual obsession with rock music would result in a band that Billboard would call "...one of America's best kept rock 'n' roll secrets."The mid-90's saw The Figgs go from being the biggest draw in Albany, NY to signing two major label record deals (Imago, Capitol), doing the Warped Tour, and extended tours with Weezer, The Cranberries, and Jimmy Eat World. While their contemporaries seem to have either catapulted onto the national radar or disappeared completely, The Figgs relentlessly keep playing shows marked by sweat soaked excitement and making innovative and energetic albums year after year.Such is the case with their fifth full-length release Slow Charm. While containing vintage Figgs riffs, the kind of riffs that are hard as a baseball bat and as smart as the eye that successfully swings it, Slow Charm also teaches on a new learning curve for band and fans alike. The new record goes far beyond simply demonstrating that the band has not lost their flair for foot stomping rockers. "There Are Never Too Alike" and "Back To Being" are proof ...
