ABBA in Japan

This DVD includes ABBA’s 1978 TV special which features some unique live versions with orchestra.

The Limited Special Edition contains a second DVD which includes a behind-the-scenes documentary about the Japan tour. This documentary isn't narrated, but pretty raw. It features scenes showing ABBA travelling, meeting the press and backstage, also rehearsal scenes with some original sound. It even features some visual excerpts of the following performances:

• Voulez-Vous
• If It Wasn't For The Nights
• As Good As New
• Not Bad At All
• Hole In Your Soul
• Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
• Dancing Queen
• Waterloo

All live footage is overdubbed with the studio versions though.
