This was the only Italian TV appearance by ABBA as a group.
This programme was hosted by Daniele Piombi and Aba Cercato and directed by Gianni Ravera and Regia di Giancarlo Nicotra. It appears to be some sort of competition with the favourites being Iva Zanicchi, Ornella Vanoni and My Martina.
They performed "Mamma Mia" and "SOS". There are very few pictures of the performance. One is on the Italian (DigIt) cover of the "SOS"/"Mamma Mia" single shown below.
Other guests on the show were Van McCoy ("The Shuffle"), Yvonne Fair ("It Should Have Been Me"), Carl Douglas ("Kung Fu Fighting"), Pete Wingfield ("Sixteen with a Bullet") and Shirley and Company ("Shame, Shame Shame"). Information in a television listings magazine does not indicate that ABBA were guests but there is lots of lovely information all in italian - can anyone help to translate it?
The appearance was re-broadcasted in the mid 1980's in a revival show hosted by Red Ronnie.
