Notes Björn and Michael B Tretow took part in the final programme of a series of eight analysing various aspects of the music industry.  The episode was narrated by actor Clive Owen.

The episodes in the series were:

Episode 1: From Russia With Love
Episode 2: Stardust
Episode 3: Road to Rock and Roll
Episode 4: Producer Pop
Episode 5: Atlantic Crossing
Episode 6: After The Gold Rush
Episode 7: Soundtracks
Episode 8: Pure Pop

Michael demonstrated "Dancing Queen" by playing the backing track coming together track by track (first the drums, guitars, piano, etc).  Incredible sound.

Björn described the sound of Agnetha and Frida's voices together as "amazing" and we hear a bit of the backing track - goose pimple time!
