GOLDEN EARRING-SEVEN TEARS-1971-FIRST HOLLAND-POLYDOR PRESS-2344008. Matrices 1Y 1 670 111/ 2Y 1 670 112.A rare Gollan original of the cult group. Seven Tears is the seventh studio album by The Hague, South Holland - based rock band Golden Earring, originally (and until 1969) titled The Golden Earrings. 1971 began with the single Holy Holy Life, which had a heavy rock sound. The song, which cursed the hypocrisy of the official religion, reached number 5 in the Netherlands. The single was followed by the album Seven Tears, the title of which reflected, firstly, that it was the band's seventh album, and secondly, that it included seven songs.One long single, She Flies On Strange Wings, was selected from the album, which should be noted for the unusual saxophone of Barry Hay. Due to its length, the song occupied both sides of the vinyl single. The Dutch charts marked it at No. 4. Inspired by the Beatles ' film Let It Be, a film was made for this single, in which Golden Earring performed on the roof of the Hilton Hotel in Amsterdam. The album Seven Tears ended with the song You're Better Off Free, sung by Coymans and featuring a thumping guitar solo. During the recording of Seven Tears, Kooijmans, Gerritsen and Suderwijk, along with several other Dutch musicians, teamed up and recorded a rock version of the traditional Dutch music Hans Brinker Symphony, which was released by Polydor under the overall name "Holland" and was a great success in the Dutch charts. ...more

ABBA-VOULEZ-VOUS-1979-THE FIRST PRESS OF SWEDEN-POLAR - POLS282.A rare Swedish original of the cult album.  Voulez-Vous is the sixth studio album by Swedish pop band ABBA, released in 1979. The release is characterized by a large number of dance-oriented tracks, but it is wrong to define the genre of the album as exclusively "disco"; for example, the song "Does Your Mother Know" has quite definite rock motifs. The work on the album went on for more than a year, and during this time the participants had accumulated more material than what they managed to put on the album. Among the works of that period published much later, it is worth mentioning the composition Dream World, included as a bonus track on the 2010 reissue. In 1981, the album "Voulez-Vous" was released in the USSR by the company "Melody" and became the last numbered album "ABBA", released in the Soviet Union. The album, like the previous one, was a huge success, placing in the charts of all countries in the top ten. It became multi-platinum in just one year.  ...more
